Often times bystanders are written to do stupid things... Largely to amp but the need for the hero to do some outlandish saving

Which universe is the most egregious example of this?

(Partialy inspired by the stupidity of the random bystanders in the latest One Punch Man manga chapter)

The whole battle takes place in an empty void, no weapons, and starvation can't happen.

We start at sea level, same population as we have currently on Earth, everyone just magically starts working towards the collective goal. Assume that there is some plot of land that fits these constraints. No competing interests, no dissidents. Whatever the best plan is, is the plan that everyone is adhering to.

Challenge The Walking Dead but the wildfire virus only reanimates people who died as a result of homicide. Can the walkers/revenants still take down civilization?

3 Upvotes

This sort of scenario just popped into my head yesterday.

In TWD, everyone was infected and turned when they died by any means and their brain wasn't destroyed. For the purposes of this exercise, homicide is the death of a person as a direct consequence of the actions of another, so includes murder, manslaughter, vehicular manslaughter, accidents as a result of human error, armed conflict, etc. A walker biting someone also counts.

The CDC reported roughly 13,000 violent deaths in the US in 2010, the start of the show, or about 35 homicides a day. Extrapolated to the rest of the world (tenuous since death rates are obviously different in different countries), our baseline global zombie population growth is 1200/day, which is pretty close to the figure given by the UN. This is roughly 1% of the global death rate in 2010. For ease of calculation, I'm assuming that the number of homicides that result in brain destruction are marginal.

Is this still enough walkers to collapse society? How quickly could society figure it out and adapt to get homicides to zero? This is also the TWD universe so they don't know what zombies are.

Mutators:

  • Baseline 'revenants' instead become the runners from Daryl Dixon and have acid blood.
  • Add suicides, an additional 2000 to the global baseline. Ignore brain destruction or restraint (i.e. hanging).

Edit: thought the show started in 2013, adjusted figures to 2010 though it didn't have much impact

Challenge Batman will die in one year. Without appointing a successor, how long can he keep his rogues' gallery in check after his death?

248 Upvotes

Batman has just received a terminal diagnosis. He will die in one year and nothing can save him.

Worse, all costumed heroes and sidekicks immediately abandon him. He cannot appoint a successor and cannot rely on any other costumed superhero after his death - nobody else is going to step in or step up to protect Gotham. Alfred is still capable of impersonating him to an extent but can't be trained as an actual Batman. No help whatsoever from Robin, the rest of the bat-family, Superman, etc - he's on his own.

He will still stick to his morals and will not kill or permanently injure any of his enemies.

Using plans and preparation and scheming, how long can he maintain Gotham's stability and keep his opponents in check after he dies?

(Assume that the Joker will continue to be the threat he usually is when Batman is alive, and will not go catatonic or become a normal person once Batman is dead the way he sometimes does in some continuities.)

At any rate, Jin has two ways of battling Shan Yu head on.

Napoleon at his peak wielding 3rd Corps at its strongest. But he doesn't have access to minimap, instant orders, and has to direct his troops as he would've had back then. He knows the other side could do what he could not.

Average Total War gamer has played 300 hours of Total War franchise. He wields Ney's Corps as it was during the Waterloo campaign. He has bird's eye view, minimap, and can direct troops instantly as he would in a game.

Scenario 1: They fight at Waterloo. Both sides fresh. Daytime.

Scenario 2: Napoleon defends Leipzig. Both sides fresh.
