Winchester brothers win 100% of the time and always come back from the dead. Plus, they come with a multitude of weapons that can kill anything. Plus, Dean would definitely make friends with like half those animals and end up naming a lion Lemmy or something.

Sam would just brood and possibly have a nosebleed from power usage, depending on whether we have "barely out of high school Sam" or "affectionately nicknamed by the reigning king of Hell Sam". Fucking Sam.

What's the level of communication/organization internally within each group? Is this a "turn on the simulation and see how it shakes out" scenario or are the groups capable of strategy and coordination? Are we able to deploy specific individuals/groups to specific tasks/locations?

What's the terrain? Are we on an open field, with the two teams coming from each end and meeting in the middle? Are we in the center and being swarmed from all sides? Are we defending a structure? Is there one or several predetermined paths the oncoming attackers have to take to reach us, with multiple potential defense points?

Do we personally fight in this battle or do we just wait to see how wins and find out if we live or are torn apart/devoured? If we're fighting, do we get weapons? What sort?

Alright, setting aside potential tabletop rules (although that idea is looking more and more appealing) iif this is just a hypothetical "what if" scenario.

I would say some strategy and communication would be available. Telepathic command. So you could order your companions to do specific tasks.

As far as structure/terrain goes, I'm inclined to say wherever you currently are. If this were a game, I would have several areas with different environmental benefits and challenges.

Again, with the fighting, I would say whatever is available for you IRL. Basically you're chilling at home/work/practice space and you have a vision and some disembodied voice shows you a bunch of animal runes and says "choose which two of the great beasts of the wild will run with you during The Great Hunt. The rest will hunt you." You snap out of it and notice it's grown quiet outside. You open your door to find (choice 1) and (choice 2). And for the hell of it, you have a Raven translator/military advisor because talking ravens are rad as hell and everyone deserves a bird buddy no matter what animals you choose.

I work in a brick building at the end of a cul-de-sac that's flanked by woods, high tension power lines and highways. So shit just got real. Have we officially replaced buffaloes with polar bears?

Also, ravens are excellent strategists and they hold a grudge. So if you die, your raven will probably seek revenge.

I want whatever animals I pick to seek revenge.

Using all the manufacturing equipment I have available I am pretty sure I could make weapons, rats and polar bears may be my official answer

I have no resources...I'm in an open field...shoot.

I'm banking on whatever animal tries to 'eat me' (cause they're hungry right?) will say "Yuck...that's not a man! That's a Tempeh Hombre!"

Animals don't like Tempeh everyone knows this.

Guhhh...Tofuman??


I'm attached to a warehouse full of industrial and commercial petroleum products and some heavy equipment. Steel tanks and barrels, tanker trucks, lots of random equipment that could be improvised into defensive structures and weapons. We have an army transport truck if I could make it down the street to our other warehouse. I bet my boss has some guns and knives. I feel good about my odds.

They already know where you are. That's not a mouse next to you; that's the smallest rat in the horde of 10,000.

This thread is firmly in the sweet spot for my brain.

I was thinking of picking the lion so I could hop its back and get away...
...the only issue is, if this guy is the hunter, I'm only prolonging the inevitable (same sentiment can be applied to life in general I suppose).

7 Buffalo are out, replaced by 4 polar bears

Edit: 3 actually. More balanced

You're opening up dangers I hadn't considered here.



...like hordes of predators hopped up on an assortment of recreational drugs, being led by a depraved man in the depths of an ether binge.

Changed it to 3. My thinking is in order of deadliness, 5 gorillas, 4 Lions, 3 polar bears seems to work a bit better

I wanna make stats and shit and get real technical with it

HST fans? Are we in bat country? Can we have a bat horde? Can I be BATMAN???
