New season starts tomorrow in case you overlooked it!:thumbup:
They talk the whole episode about taking on the Saviours, and not once did anyone even hint at adding up the number of potential fighters available per side, not even as a rough basic discussion starting point (!)...
A lot of endless psychologizing instead, Carol's withdrawal among a whole slew of other examples...
The only mention of available numbers in this episode, which was almost entirely devoted to rounding up support against the "Saviours"(!), was when the group sees the "Kingdom"... It goes like this: "Yeah, they have the numbers..."
Only once in the entire show do I remember a specific number, it was for Governor's town, Woodbury, in the third season: I think the number was 76 (a number I found really low for a disparate group that was supposed to display major cohesion and organization)...
They never talk of the numbers in each group, not even as estimates, which in real life they would be doing all the time...
Some abandoned buildings start to look overgrown, which is good, but gas would have stopped working without new processing, this within 6 months to a year... I don't think the old gas can just be "saved" or recycled: Cooking oil would be a likely substitute by this time, meaning some fairly simple mods to the re-fueling method, but I think far, far easier on old carburator cars compared to newer injection models (no?)... And quantities would be limited...
And no way to just fill up an abandoned vehicle by this point, like the Priest seems to have done... I really hope they start to consider all this...

P.S. The stretched wire went far too slow to do any cutting...: Wires can do some friction slicing, but no real cutting... They would end up dragging a huge mass of intact zombies, pulling the two cars together, or breaking the wire.... That or the zombies are so soft they could not even stand up....
