One bullet graze the flamethrower tank and CHAKAPOWEE no more ghak99

Gatling gun is worthless in this setting. Flamethrower > rocks

Graystoke · 07-11-2018, 11:13 AM

That Corn is going to be green.
What time of the day does this battle take place? If it is in the AM, the corn will be wet with dew rendering the flame thrower useless unless it is a direct body shot on Why Not?

I think this will come down to the sharpened rock.

Is it my cornfield? If it’s mine they’re both dead because I’m killing everybody involved if you’re dicking off in my cornfield.

Why Not. It’s going to come down to the rocks.

Hell if it were me I’d fire the Gatling gun first and if it doesn’t make him dead I just move over a few rows and get him from the back. Pollinating cornfields are an assholes to walk through. About damn impossible to drag a flamethrower and gear through. Plus if you’re moving all you can hear is corn leaves. Sneaking up should be no big deal.

HOWEVER Ghak farms and knows all this. The ability to move in corn should be a huge tactical advantage. I’d presume he’d dump the gear and go tactical early also.

Unless otherwise stated, I think we presume that all duels begin at high noon.

It is your cornfield. We planned it for a time when you were working a different area. I hope the flamethrower isn't a problem.

They’re both dead then. Better hope you have an alternate.

Rock wins over scissors and flamethrower in this battle

It's too bad that neither one has butter as a weapon, or maybe we could end this senseless violence.

Surprised these haven't been a weapon yet...

...weapon pool seems weak as **** sometimes

It wasn't personal. I will help you replant, using the violated corpse of ghak as fertilizer
