The Most Important Poll EVER 3!
 
Alright, time for another matchup. In a battle between Knights and Zombies, who would win?

Castrainer July 6th, 2004 10:32 AM

Whats the point of the other thread, Mr. Kaga? @[email protected]

Chairman Kaga July 6th, 2004 10:34 AM

I double posted on this one and accidentally didn't add the poll on the last one (meant to change vampires to zombies)

Pokedragonfire July 6th, 2004 10:37 AM

Zombies cauz knights are evil, they are agaisnt dragons. All knights must dieeee!!! Dragons shall live!

Chairman Kaga July 6th, 2004 10:46 AM

I'd have to go with knights on this one, actually...the thing is, zombies are undead and mightily powerful, but knights do have the advantage of weaponry and armor, and despite zombies being hard to kill, they could never penetrate a knight's armor and would be eventually be cut to bits.

Suzu July 6th, 2004 12:53 PM

I'm gonna have to go with Knights... Zombies are the living dead, But knights have swords and stuff so the can just slice the zombies up, and they have armor so the zombies cant eat ther braines... ^^

Kairi July 6th, 2004 12:59 PM

I’m not too aware of the abilities of the average zombie, but couldn’t they like keep walking even after being sliced and thus bite the knights at a weakpoint in the armor? @[email protected]; Otherwise, knights I suppose if you look at how many orcs were slain in LotR. o.o;

parallelzero July 6th, 2004 1:01 PM

ewwwww, zombies are gross, they're so umm dead?
Soldiers are more uh living! thats it

I feel very pink today!

Greed July 6th, 2004 4:27 PM

*hand pops up from a grave and CaRtOON comes out as a zombie* Meehhh.. Annnootheeer pooll? I saaaay kniiightssss, cus theeeeey can sliiiice off zombiesssss.. Liiiikeeee meeeeee..

*knights arrive and chop off CaRtOON's head*

^^NICK^^ v.3.0 July 6th, 2004 5:09 PM

Um, I don't know, so I didn't vote. I think it'd be a tie. Zombies can't die I am pretty sure, so Knight's weapons wouldn't hurt them. Zombie's attacks wouldn't do much damage since Knights have armor.

John Denver July 6th, 2004 5:43 PM

This is an awkward one...Well, if based by pure brutality then knights would win simply because a zombie would never be able to get near it...especially if it was on a horse. And zombies are slow...which is bad...

BOO ya!

ASG July 6th, 2004 5:47 PM

Duh zombies not only r they dead but like when they fall apart they can like still move and attack people. Watch more movies (try The Return Of The Living Dead).

Mistys_Brother July 6th, 2004 7:34 PM

Hmm .... I'd have to say Knights. Zombies can be kinda dumb ... what with being dead and all ^^"

But then again some zombies can put up a good fight ^^"

So ... umm ... Knights it is then ^^"

Lokhlan July 6th, 2004 7:40 PM

When I see this poll I think about the old SNES game, Super Ghosts & Goblins...

SG&G is classic Knights -vs- Zombies at it's best.

MysticGrandpaGohan July 6th, 2004 8:50 PM

The answer is zombies! (1.) because zombies are the undead, living dead. In Warcraft III Arthas is a human knight or fighting guy which is a knight. He later becomes a zombie, undead dude. he becomes a zombie/undead because he has an evil heart. so every knight will become a zombie if they have an evil heart. (2.) normal knights have a lifespan of 80 year or so.. zombies have a lifespan of googolplexian years so zombies are dead people who have evil hearts and since there are more people who already died than there are living now and about 1/4 of people are evil.. there are more zombies than there are people here so zombies would win.. (3.) zombies can regenerate regenerate mean immortality.. if a knight cut off a zombies head the zombie would collapse but the heaad would move at 2mph and rejoin with the body since a knight cut of his head the head wouldnt be very far so the head would rejoin in 6 or so seconds. and almost no knight would cut of the zombies head then grab the zombies head and run 5 miles and run back so zombies would win. unless they fought at a vocano then the zombies would permentnaly perish but the same with knights they could also be pushed into the volcano so again zombies will win becuse about every 300 miles there is an LIVE volcano and they zombies wont listen to the knight to go to an volcano.. unless the zombies are near the volcano and the knights go to where the zombies live which is very near a vocano but.. zombies know the land very well beacuse its where they live.. so AGAIN zombies will win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MY SPEECH IS FINISHED!

pokeknight July 7th, 2004 1:15 AM

I am sure that a knight would win!
 
YA! although a zombee has a number of extraordinary power and would be strong; a real knight would never give up and he would defeat the zombee using his tactics and his armour would save him from extraordinary attacks!
[ i guess that's how the owners of african zombees have been defeated!]

yes.. but a zombie would regenerate although a knight won't give up 1 knight will not defeat limitless zombies.. 1 zombie will regenerate limitless times and about 100kinghts vs 100zombies and that means 100kignhts vs 100xlimitless zombies so its 100knights vs unlimited zombies.. and zombies live extremely long they die when they rot... so the zombies win!

Psychotic_Demon July 7th, 2004 1:46 AM

you guys confused me... zombies would win. why? because their already dead, genius. and they r so cool!

Chairman Kaga July 7th, 2004 6:07 AM

But, even though zombies have incredibly long lifespans, are you sure that they could ever pierce the armor of the knights? I mean, knights don't just have swords. A flaming arrow could easily dispatch of a zombie...

MysticGrandpaGohan July 7th, 2004 5:44 PM

i am sure that a zombie will either claw at its head or claw at the straps a knights armour isn't that strong... for your flaming arrows..if the knights used flaming arrows they zombies would just back away...and wait till the knights have no arrows or wait till they die natually...hehe..

Abskull July 7th, 2004 6:08 PM

Rise Zombies! We will destroy the knights!!! Die goodie-too shoos! :badsmile: :dead:

Muahahahaha!

~Ozy~ July 7th, 2004 6:35 PM

Alrighgt, let me haul out the old D&D manual. So, level 6 Paladin w/+1 sword vs. level 3 Zombie...Just kidding, I'm nowhere near that much of a geek. *Hides collection of every Forgotten Realms book ever written* But my bet is on the knights, overall. Because they can just run to the local priest for some holy water. *nods*

1) Arthas is a death knight, not an undead like a ghoul. Death Knights are still human, just that they submitted their soul to Nerzhul. Human with weakness to light let's just say ^^ Arthas became a death knight because Frostmourne took over (without Frostmourne's "assistance" Arthas will be an evil Paladin but still a Paladin).

2) And the magician who empowerers the zombie also have a limited age? (zombies: mindless walking corpses... and there needs to be "someone" to raise them you know) Using warcraft as reference again, Necromancers and Acolytes rely on the power of Nerzhul in order to keep the ghouls and skeletons moving. Now without Nerzhul (who's really a special case to the reason why he's still alive) those ghouls/skeletons will also die when the necromancer who raised them dies... (or when the 60 second timer is up for skeleton warriors and skeletal mages ;p)

3) Zombies do not regenerate, but just that they can be easily "fixed up"... I mean it's just sewing a lost arm back on the body again? Refer to Abominations in your warcraft manual for more information ;p Therefore the zombies themselves maybe immortal because they can be re-raised, but the knights can always kill the feeble old necromancers behind the scene can't they? ^^

well good point frostweaver..but abominations aren't zombies(are they?)you say "therefore the zombies themselves maybe immortal" but its ONLY knights against zombies there isn't no necromancer secretly reviving them... but you said "therefore the zombies themselves maybe immortal" so is there anything that can remove a immortal curse(to me it's a curse)? I dont think so... so again in my OPINION zombies will win :knockedou

Knights have a layer of steel armor that is used to prevent piercing from arrows, the layer can be described as 'Protection' as for they are only used to fight against humans. Therefore, a Zombie's capability in combat is probably spit poison, suck blood or furiously slash the guts out of a knight.
An average sword is made out of 2 things, thin metal and a steel plate.
One, the thin metal is the sharp part, so it cut things like a knife.
Two, the steel plate is used for defending the thin metal so it can't snap quite easily, this also increases the bashing power of a sword since it is heavier.
Three, you need to hold the sword without getting cut so a warrior would have a wooden handle usually wrapped with cotton.
A sword, releases cut impact and hurts more than a knife as you may already know but damage to a zombie is always cut half because;
One, a zombie is the living dead, as they are already dead, they are brought back twice as powerful.
Two, a zombie is slow and looks defenceless, as they are, they can be cut in pieces in seconds.
Three, even though they have the vulnerability against impact, they have the ability to keep going, legs cut off, head cut off, sword through head, anything.
Four, zombies are immortal, they cannot die off physical purposes, it moves even slashed to bits, but once there is one zombie, you know there is more.
Five, as they are immortal, you know what it means, but you can still drop then off a volcano or kick them off the harbour bridge, meaning that if its a 1 on 1, knight against zombie, the zombie would win, no matter how you would like and image the zombie getting cut to pieces, it is immortal. The knight on the other case is a human, you may as already know humans can die off physical purposes like stabbing off the heart so, the knight is long gone, however, as i had mentioned before, if the terrain has a type of liquid like water, the knight can kick its way the zombie off and kill it, zombies can't swim so its dead.
