Ok, but only if you use wooden 100 meter stakes.

I'm sure complete vaporization by a kinetic lance would be effective.

It should be noted that these weren't regular nukes. These were magically enhanced nukes. They managed to tear apart the afterlife, and all they did in the end was stun him. It was the concentrated sunlight that did him in.

[Zironic]

Put the vampire in liquid uranium. Freeze.

The sun is just a big ball of fire, coincidentally a kinetic lance passing through the atmosphere is also a big ball of fire.

With a really crunchy center.

That's just attaching scientific reasoning to a creature that flagrantly violates the laws of physics by it's very nature.

Sunlight will always be much more powerful then any other expression of fire because of it's metaphysical importance.

Actually, a vampire might be able to survive even atomization. Dracula could turn into mist and back, why not atoms and back. A more surefire way would be to dismember it, lock the pieces in boxes, and launch the boxes toward different planets.

Not if you can dodge it. And vampires are inherently dodgy.

Mmm, yes, i'm sure you'll be able to dodge a 100 meter metal pole (probably depleted Uranium, nice and dense) hurtling towards you from orbit at speeds usually reserved for subatomic particles thanks to the aforementioned railgun.

Now dodge ten.

Generally, you'd go for Tungsten actually.

Ideally you'd probably use some sort of Tungsten alloy due to it's hardness and heat resistance yes; but Tungsten isn't exactly cheap, depleted uranium has the added bonus that it's the waste output of fission reactors, and thus you get to dump your garbage by using it as orbital bombardment.

I do not see a downside.

Well, even then, in a railgun, you would need something with very good electric conductivity. Tungsten isn't exactly very conductive. Iridium is really, really heavy, so results in the most kinetic energy, but is not very conductive either. Alloying Iridium (or Osmium, or Osmiridium) with silver for conductivity and less brittleness is a very good idea, when ignoring price.

You use a shell casing that is conductive.

The question is why do girls like that stuff so much? Even some twenty-somethings (!)?

[Jack_Bread]

The question is why do girls like that stuff so much? Even some twenty-somethings (!)?

Because there is a subliminal message on every page that basically reads "Destroy all non-believers."

Incredibly sexist sounding psychology is required to explain this.

Oh well. Even then, silver shell would be best, no?
