ZOMBIES!!! The Best Weapons for Obliterating Zombies in the Apocalypse (10 page)

 
Napalm and Thermite
 

 

 
Napalm was used to great effect during the Vietnam War. It is an oily liquid based on derivatives of naphthenic acid and palmic acid in a base of fuel. It has a very high burning temperature and spreads very easily. It is able to burn most surfaces and can even burn on fluids that would otherwise quench a fire that burned less hotly. This is not  a weapon that is advised in combat against the undead. The chances of damaging the head to the degree necessary are very slight. There is also a chance of user contamination from napalm and this will cause serious burns and injuries which no liquid can extinguish!
Thermite is a potentially explosive compound that is made from aluminum and rust with a magnesium-based fuse. It is used in welding, soldering, and other workshop activities that involve cutting through or combining pieces of metal. It has an extremely high burning point and can melt most metals easily. It could also be used to cremate a body if nothing is available. Some believe that this would be an excellent potential weapon against the undead. However, serious flaws still exist. Anything that hot could seriously burn the user. Thermite is notoriously difficult to light, and the amount needed to properly liquefy a zombie, as well as getting a zombie in the right position to liquefy them, are serious setbacks. If you decide to use this tricky substance, you must first find a source of good quality aluminum. Pop cans, certain aluminum-based bike frames, and even  paint stores can be good sources of aluminum (where they may have it powdered). The rust can be procured or made fairly easily. The local hardware or paint store may carry it. You can also make the rust yourself through a variety of homemade applications. Once you have good, powdered sources of both compounds, you can mix them in a 2.5 to 1 ratio (or 8 to 3) in a bottle or jar. Once mixed to the desired consistency, a heat source (like a magnesium-based sparkler) must be applied to start the reaction. Again, this substance is very dangerous and has limited or unknown use against zombies, so the use of this in battle is not recommended.
In Conclusion
 

 

 

There are many weapons that are good for killing zombies. Swords and katanas are your best options. Firearms are your second best as long as you have the ammo. Bludgeons and bludgeoning objects can be great options as long as the body strength is there to use them. Some weapons, like daggers or most explosives are simply not going to be your best bet against zombies. When choosing a weapon, remember the following questions. How much physical strength and aerobic ability do I have? What weapons am I most likely to find or will be in my price range? Do I want long range weapons or am I comfortable with hand-to-hand combat? If a weapon requires maintenance or other parts (like ammo or basic material) how likely am I to come across them if I run out? What is my level of expertise with this weapon? Do I have someone or some books or guides that can help me learn the weapon so that I do not injure myself? And lastly, is this something that will easily kill a zombie or do extensive enough damage to the head to kill it? If the weapon you intend to use is scarce, you may want to start training, shopping, and stocking up now rather than later. Always carry at least two weapons (your primary weapon and a backup weapon). You may want to consider having something to slow zombies down or to use as a last ditch effort to escape as well. Whatever your weapon choice, good luck and happy hunting!
