WAR between scientists!

Bajingo

Biologists will win for sure after making an alliance with the chemists.

After deploying all of their missiles the physicists would soon realise that all they managed to accomplish was the extinction of all geologists who were out in the stupidly out in the field at the time! All of the worthwhile biologists and chemists were in their underground labs at the time. Having no nuclear missiles or radioactive ores left (that was the geologists job) they are left extremely vulnerable.

The Bio-Chem alliance then send out their first wave of giant genetically modified cockroaches equiped with bullet/laser proof uniforms and chemical brain altering helmets(to ensure obedience)..thankyou chemists.

Before the nuclear launch all computer scientists were taken out by an elite team of part time physicists/Judo yellow belts who were subsequently eliminated by the physicist secret police.

Not too far fetched in my opinion at all:p

Physicists clearly

Nukes, lasers, etc.

They wouldn't need computer scientists as computational physics covers that. They wouldn't need chemists as well... it's a branch of particle physics that deals with the electron. I think Pauli solved chemisty once :P . As for biologists... sure you can create bio toxins etc but try build a bomb to deploy em!

I believe it's the physicists. We would control all heavy weapons and machinery. We have nukes at our disposal and satellites to spy on our enemies.

Dos attack the **** outta your nukes and send them flying back home.

Why do physicists get all the nukes? Engineers are the guys who build them and are a lot tougher than physicists and would take them.

An engineer is just an applied physicist, who in turn is just an applied mathematician.:pac:

Computer scientists will be the most sought after, most of the high tech labs will have computer security ........
Computer scientists to form an uneasy alliance with maths/phy you then have a deadly combo of wmds whilst a denial of the best labs to the opposition.
This should really be made into a game

El Siglo

Ah no, you're forgetting about the best 'scientists' of all....
Geographers!;)

-> Okay, I'm getting my coat!

Personally, I think Physicists and Mathematicians would still win just for the sheer brilliance of this. So you can keep you VX, Sarin, Botox, Small Pox to yourselves, this thing would obliterate them!

Chemists. One big vat of HF poured over physicists and their pesky instruments & the biologists and computer engineers would see sense and run:cool:

HF rulez :pac:

HF ruins :pac:

Liquid Fluorine is so much more fun.

But once Iron has a coating for Fluoride it doesn't get attacked further so it's not the universal solvent you'd think it was. I had some universal solvent at home but the bottle leaked


War hasn't yet killed off as many as Smallpox Or Malaria, or possibly even Flu.
and because the agents are self replicating logistics is not a problem.

Certain forms of the plague can be spread from human to human. When someone with pneumonic plague coughs, microscopic droplets carrying the infection move through the air. Anyone who breathes in these particles may catch the disease.

Almost all people with pneumonic plague die if not treated. Treatment reduces the death rate to 50%.

A vaccination is available for high-risk workers, but its effectiveness is not clearly established.

mawk

my money is on the engineers tbh..

*edit
except civil engineers, those guys only ever build targets

"Computer scientists"
Theres an oxymoron if ever I heard one.
And the physicists would kick ass all the way.

The economists/accountants/financial guys would win.

The scavengers and parasites always survive to feed upon the rest!

I wanna change my vote. I originally said Biologists cause they could engineer a virus, but after reviewing all 3 terminator movies, the computer scientists would clearly have the upper hand...

downside being, after the war was over, the artificial intelligence would simply take over and the obese immobile warcraft addicted computer scientists would be helpless against them.

math dudes, they have default mastery over physics and computer science if the whim takes them.

History has shown that nothing quite wipes out an entire population like a good germ.

Biologists win.
