      Hi @cool-whip-2

      In HG Wells “War of the Worlds”, the invading martians could easily deal with any weapons we could throw at them. They were eventually wiped out by bacteria. So my weapon of choice would be bacteria and viruses, sprayed over the advancing zombies, using fire engines.

      Comedians. Maybe they can distract the zombies with their jokes… or maybe even make them friendly?! If that doesn’t work, at least it gives me some time to run away while they attack the comedians.

      So I assume diplomacy is out of the question? Maybe a book on vegetarianism….?

      My weapon would most definitely be “engineering”…

      With said weapon, I’d be able to develop the systems capable of designing, manufacturing and launching a space vehicle, setting off to colonise Mars…

      Although if you were looking for something a bit more traditional… definitely a crossbow… in zombie films there is always a crossbow… which must mean their a good choice… surely? #logicalthinking
