boulder, gigantic

There is nothing remotely funny about a giant boulder.

Approximate Pre-Holocaust Price:
$0.00

Approximate Post-Holocaust Availability:
Common in the rural southwest, the badlands, and mountainous areas.

Benefits:
A gigantic boulder's got enormous mass. When dropped, even from low heights, virtually any organic matter beneath it will be liquefied. This clearly includes zombies, and particularly their brains. In addition, there's a small chance that once dropped (and depending on the boulder's shape) that it could begin rolling, creating a wall of devastation that no zombie would have the dexterity to avoid.

Drawbacks:
A gigantic boulder's got enormous mass. It would take a team of skilled engineers to move such an object, let alone manoeuvre it to such a height that it becomes a viable attack option (unless, of course, you're Dig Dug). Any weapon that requires teams to operate, or construction equipment, cannot be highly rated, considering the lack of both human and mechanical resources available in a post-necropalyptic world.

Overall Score:
1 out of 10, just because seeing a gigantic boulder fall back and crush the team of engineers who had been struggling to move it would be amusing.
