But when I make something like this, all I get is "Stop building that makeshift flamethrower" and "Why are you pointing it at the children" and "Oh god please stop"...
dude, a pack of 5 roman candle tubes is like $10 where I live
each has 10 shots, so 50 shots per bag.
1001 shots, over 50 per pack is 20 packs plus one bottle rocket
20 times $10 each is only $200 bucks. add in duct tape and some PVC pipes and you're only looking at $250
While my proposition that he kill himself may have been a bit overblown, the whole demonstration of "oh but you're wrong!! Look at all this math I did to prove you wrong!!! HAHAHA look at my guiz I'm cool and cleaver guiiiiz!!!" was definitely smug as hell.
He never once referenced his own or the other person's intelligence or other credentials, which would have been smug. He didn't know the guy was joking, so he broke down the math without any commentary. Stating numbers does not make you smug.
For example, if right now I started calling you names or telling you how great I am, this would become a smug comment. But me simply disagreeing with you does not make me smug.
Uuugh.. guess I have to cross another weapon off my "Zombie Apocalypse Dream Weapon List"..
Roman Cantle Mini-gun does not seem as effective as you think it is, I mean, yeah it will probably light at least 5 zombies on fire, but the rest of those tiny peeew rockets will just harmlessly bounce off and be wasted ammo.
set it up a distance away with a fuse to make a decent noise maker to draw zeds away from an area then have landmines (or i.e.d) on a remote trigger to detonate when they crowd around it (assuming the zeds are attracted to sound and have poor eyesight)
yeah it does not set PEOPLE on fire, because we're like 60% water, but ZOMBIES.. BONE dry zombies(unless they are covered in fresh blood) are another matter.
dont think it would set those guys on fire neither...the flame doesnt linger long enough and its not like zombies are made out of highly flammable material...
Like I said, we the living HUMANS are 60%!!! water! if that only gives US bad burn marks, days, or even weeks old zombies would be dry as a jerky, and go up in flames since there's no moisture in their skin, muscles or organs.
yes you said that. and i already told you it would most likely just produce a big scorch mark in their skin since just because something is dry doesnt mean it catches flames like a mad lemon on coke.
try set beef jerky on fire by shooting roman candles at it mate. that is all the proof thy need. the flame doesnt linger long enough,nor is it hot enough. to actually set them aflame.
even less so when the shots are more likely to bounce off from them before they can even do any lasting damage anyway...
