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*

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!

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.
 
highly depends on what weapons the Knight had, if they had maces, they'd have a chance, if they have swords, they can kiss their life good bye. I personally favor the dead of course, I love the dead, THE UNDEAD WILL NEVER DIE!

YAY!I never thought zombies could spit poison! he'll just eat cake(which is human food)and get ready to barf at the knight his sword armour shield everything will turn to rust!!!!!! HAHAHA!!!And zombies aren't TTTHHHAAATTT S2PID he wont listen to a knight he wont go to a habour bridge why would he listen? anyways they're immortal!!!!! THEY CANNOT DIE EVER!and zombies are not defenceless they have "spit poison, suck blood or furiously slash the guts out of a knight".LOL BARF AT KNIGHT...hehe
 
Zombies are classified as immortal, but that's a misconception. Of course they can keep fighting when they lose some limbs, but once they lose them all, as in being decapatated and limbless, they would either lose animation or have useless crawling appendages. Slashing through them would be exceedingly easy for a knight because zombies are already partially decomposed, making them less strong against anything that could cut them...it would be like cutting through barbecued pork. Also, the fact remains and is selectively overlooked by the zombie supporters that zombies have no way of ever piercing a knight's armor. Their thought and motor function centers would be too damaged by the slight decomposition to allow them to effectively wield a weapon anyway. Once a zombie is cut apart and then its torso mangled in a rather disgusting manner, its head smashed in, its feet and hands cut from its arms and legs, it would not be dead, but immobilized enough to where the knight wouldn't have to worry about it...even if the zombie still had animation, it would lack the ability to move. Fire, water, heavy objects, all these would easily dispatch of a zombie as well.

abominations are corpses sewed together... zombie is defined as walking corpses (or anything dead that's turned alive actually) so abomination is just a fat ugly zombie ;p (lol you need to do some more careful manual reading XD) And in order for zombies to exist, there has to be necromancers/wizards behind the scene anyway (eww or else this world will be dominated by zombie if they can exist without some unnatural source of power generating them). Plus like what you said, a curse has to be given by someone you know? So nyah =p

It's also like Sylvanas in Frozen throne... the manual clearly says that she cannot possibly die unless Nerzhul perishes... that's a clear indication that fighting the zombies themsevles (regardless of difficulty) is meaningless, and that the knights must slay the ultimate controller of those undead.
 
Yes, I see your point frostweaver, but...Its ONLY[ zombies against knights there is no necromancer here...and since abomination are considered as 1 zombie... then what are the results of 100 abmination against 100 knights? Try it yourself at Warcraft III map editor and see the results..

Well Chairman Kaga, since zombies are immortal...and cant die... even if you cut the zombies to atoms and spread them across the universe...they'll eventually rejoin.. it'll just take a few quintillion years.. but by that time knights would of already died of old age... the zombies are still there moving at the rate of a turtle trying to get back...
nonetheless we would all be dead at that time and won't see the zombies come back to life...MUHAHAHA and for every knight killed the zombies just eat his brain or something and the dead knight will become a zombie too!

Oh, but as I said, defeat isn't only about death; immobilization can be defeat. Keep them from moving and you're in no harm. Zombies are merely the living dead, they don't have an inner magnetism that pulls their limbs back together from the ends of the earth...some dark wizard has just brought a dead body back to life after disease or old age has run its course, and it functions (although not perfectly) for a time until it is rendered absolutely incapable of life again, as in the action of dismembering and mangling it, disgusting as that sounds.

riiight... and where do the zombies come from in the first place in order to have this contest if it isn't for those wizards doing the dirty work? ;p

as for the "resurrection rate" it all depends on those wizards you know... a zombie without those magical old fools can never exist to begin with, let along regenerate. A powerful wizard (reference: warcraft 3 Nerzhul) can pretty much regenerate the zombies immediately, while a weaker one will take days or even months to regenerate.

MysticGrandpaGohan think about it this way... in a game of warcraft 3, it's a bunch of knights (ignore number) against undead armory of ghouls, skeletons abominations and so on (ignore number again). Through the unlimited corpses of the graveyard, necromancers and death knights can re-create undead units through them. This means that the knights can never win right? However, if the knights can overcome the regeneration rate (by killing the ghouls faster than the crypts can create them, or killing skeletons faster than necromancer's regenerating mana) to slaughter the undead unit builder/spellcasters, then the knights will win in the end. If they fail to overcome the regeneration (and cannot assassinate the casters), then the knights will fall due to truly never ending amount of units.
 
EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWW you guys are gross im reading this at 2:15 in the morning and i have to go to bed.I think zombies would win cuz zombies would just eat knights brains and turn them into a walking DEAD ZOMBIE SOLDIER!!WITH SWORD WIELDING POWER AND WITH ARMOR and to do it zombies would sneak up and tear off there helmet and start eating. SO THERE ZOMBIES RULE!!!
 
Keep in mind, though, that knights have hemlets, and zombies have no special powers, so they would never be able to bite through the steel.
 
What makes you so sure that zombies won't eat knights brains... It's not super glued to the knights head..

~MysticGrandpaGohan~
 
But, you see, zombies, for one thing, don't even have the power of a regular human. Since they've been dead for a time before being brought back to life, their muscles and all their tissues have had time to decompose somewhat, taking away some of the little strength they would have had before death. Their motor functions are impaired and their speech and comprehension centers obliterated, therefore keeping them from being able to reason with themselves or with others, simply a substandard human shell at the control of a faraway wizard/necromancer. Zombies, I doubt, would be attracted to a knight's brains in particular, but simply attracted to the knight with the desire to harm it. Of course it could easily bite a piece out of a knight's scalp or even shatter their skull with repeated bites, but they're very slow and weak, and would not have the speed or strength to reach for a knight's helmet and remove it before being run through by the night, repelled, or destroyed in some other manner.
 
Even though I used to (and sometimes still do, just depends) have an extreme fear of zombies, I'd have to say they'd win.

Since people are referencing Warcraft 3, the Undead cannot be stopped by anything but Night Elves. Night Elves can be stopped by Mass Skeletons (unless they got some anti-spellcasters), so in other words, Undead are near unstoppable.

And also Crypt Fiends rock (even though I fear undeath and spiders O.o;;).
 
Crypt Fiends get slaughtered by footman though ;p Hey footman is a knight in training! That must mean Knights > Undead crap ;p And I play NE and I get beaten the crap out of me by nothing but UD O.o;

Now keep this in mind people...

zombies are NOT vampires. A zombie bite won't turn you into one of them... we're mixing up different creatures now >>;
 
this is an interesting question...umm...i guess zombies would win because even though the knight would chop them up,t hey'd come back to life, then grab onto the knight and try to suck the life out of them.

on the other hand, knights have armor, which would make it harder for the zombie to suck its life out. and they have horses too, which means they could easily trample the zoimbie to bits. but i'll vote for zombies anyway.
