Seeing as I feel no need to go on a killing rampage anytime soon. I will picture myself in a zombie apocolypse and then choose one CC and one range weapon. (Because I make the rules )

CC would have to be Huskblade. No need to cut the head off. I just nick the zombie with it and hes dust.

Range would have to be twinlinked liquifier. I was thinking heavy flamer, but then again who needs zombies on fire running at you. that sux! I'd rather see them turn into a puddle of goo.

\Only because fluff writers don't know what a railgun is. There is no recoil to a 'railgun', there is no chemical propellant. It's all done with magnets. The magnets align and super propel a slug down a barrel. With no propellant, there are no escaping gases, and thus no recoil.


that's not what recoil is, nor how recoil works. recoil is just newton's laws in praxis: for every action there's an opposite and equal reaction. recoil isn't caused by combustion. doesn't matter if it's magnets, air pressure, combustion, hydraulic pressure: in order to move something one way, there has to be equal and opposite pressure going the other. what you're saying is the equivalent of picking yourself up by your shoelaces.



No, the ammunition for a railgun is super tiny, it's just going at unbelievable speeds. With that little mass, there is not enough momentum to shift the enormous gun. Also, the gases account for like 99/100 of recoil. If you use a magnet to attract iron fillings, do you feel the magnet being pushed away from the filings? No, that wouldn't make sense, at all. This is the EXACT same thing.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Time for quotes about modern-day railguns!

"a muzzle velocity over 5,800 m/s, accurate enough to hit a 5 meter target over 200 nautical miles (370.4 km) away while firing at 10 shots per minute"

"a 64 MJ weapon to be deployed aboard Navy warships"

"more damage than a BGM-109 Tomahawk missile at a fraction of the projectile cost"

"apply the technology as a rapid-fire automatic weapon, a railgun would have further advantages of increased rate of fire. The feed mechanisms of a conventional firearm must move to accommodate the propellant charge as well as the ammunition round, while a railgun would only need to accommodate the projectile. Furthermore, a railgun would not have to extract a spent cartridge case from the breech, meaning that a fresh round could be cycled almost immediately after the previous round has been shot."

that means faster than any minigun could ever fire, with more power than a tomahawk missile, at a fraction of the cost, at 5400 m/s over 200 nautical miles. HUMANS RULE!

Heavy bolter as a first choice. It's big, angry, and works for psychological warfare as well as physical. I mean come on, it's a big ing gun. The only reason I don't pick a multimelta is because there's no way to get more ammo for it. With a HB, I can at least try and manufacture my own rounds for it. Same goes for plasma rifle/cannon. Yes, I would brave the "Gets Hot" rolls.

and that's why when it comes to "just one" I'd take the Warscythe the Pariahs use
