:confused:

I mean really.

I just don't get it.

I understand neffing and having some silly fun, but this zombie stuff is getting tiring.

Time to put the zombies to rest and move onto something else.

You would need a lot of goddamn acid to melt a horde of zombies. You'd need some sort of acid pressure sprayer. (Makes note to self to modify pressure washer)

ATOTers seem to post about the last thing they ever saw. Sort of like ATOT's version of Short Attention Span Theater.

how about an acid grenade launcher? something that hurls glass bottles filled with acid, maybe like a trebuchet, into the zombie horde?

it would shatter on impact, causing massive acid splash damage to multiple zombies. would have great range.

I'd just stand up and yell, "KLATU, VERATA, NICTO!" while holding the Necronomicon.
Zombie problem solved.

That's not going to work. No way to guarantee that the acid will incapacitate the zombies or destroy their heads. Remember, destroying limbs or major portions of the torso is ineffective. One must remove or destroy the head to stop a zombie.

Nothing that a M60E3 and a truckload of ammunition won't fix.

sure, it won't kill all of them, and it's more for incapacitation. what it does is slow the vast majority of them down, incapacitating for easy pickins when they close in.

if they're reduced to pulling their legless torsos forward by their mangled arms (which they would do if they had to), it would make it all the more easy to bash their ground-bound skulls with a mace.

This tactic helps to eliminate the need for guns. And we all know the shortfalls of a firearm-based defense on a zombie invasion.

Of course, there are long-range water -delivery devises, like CV suggested. think about those huge metal contraptions farmers use to water their fields, or what firefighters use to launch water jets into forest fires. Load those up with acid. Problem is, it would work for a while, but then the acid would corrode the metal. acid doesn't corrode glass, so I was trying to figure out a way to disperse acid-filled glass receptacles.

See, but I'd be doing it right. Thus averting the Army of Darkness's attempts at conquering the world. Bruce Campbell will be upset, but I'm sure that Ted Raimi has a spot for him in another movie.

Meh, it beats all the gay innuendo that was all the rage a while back. ATOT get's things in it's collective head from time to time....

Obsession? My friend you sound just like a closed minded Zombie-denier, or even worst, a Zombie apologist. Say what you will, but when the Zombie hordes rise up against humanity, I will at least be safe in my bunker of guns, ammo, food, and womens.
