[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 949839, member: 463"] I don't know where you're getting this 'modern weapons are ineffective' stuff from. The Judge episode wasn't the only one to demonstate otherwise. Bullets don't kill vampires, true - but I've seen a demon killed by a random pistol headshot in Angel, and a pistol bullet impact is a pretty small piece of damage. Vampires can be killed by sunlight and fire - a thermonuclear blast creates heat similar to that at the heart of the Sun, more than enough to vapourise lots of vampires, while the overpressure wave will rip apart and bury plenty more. I quite agree they won't be affected by radiation sickness from the fallout, though. :) Re the Initiative - they were (or would have been) 'defeated' by their own arrogance in accumulating lots of live test subjects in their labs, combined with the efforts of their own creation, Adam. Their tasers were apparently highly effective on all sorts of supernatural beasties. [/QUOTE]
