I of course don't know MonkeyBomb's take on this, but I would personally say the it would take a substantial "Wound" to actually kill a Werewolf. Beating the crap out of it with a silver Mace would only wound it unless it is a beating that we would normally associate with being lethal.
Nothing "Mythical" or "Mystical" would do much more than annoy it. That is where the modern Hollywood comes in as they introduced the silver for werewolves In at least one movie a werewolf is killed bring being struck in the head by a silver handled walking stick In many traditions including some Early Christian groups silver was a ward against evil as was pure iron (example using iron nails to close a coffin)

The silver-handled walking stick was in the movie "The Wolfman" starring Lon Chaney.

Of everything I own I'd have to go with the FAL I just got.
I once saw a program where they tested the ballistics of silver bullets. The bullets did not engage the rifling well at all. If ballistic tipped, copper jacketed, fragmenting silver bullets could be had, to me, those would make the perfect werewolf control round.
Cool thread! I wonder how a Sabot round would work Or a lead hollow point with a silver rod in the middle that has part of its end exposed in the hollow

Hi Bill! Yes, we love the oldies too, and have most of them on VHS tapes.

You know, maybe we should all watch the Underworld movies, but from the point of view of them being training manuals! Yes and watching Kate Beckinsale running around is never a bad thing

If I remember correctly, it is (at least sometimes) used as an antiseptic isn't it? Problem is a Werewolf wouldn't realize you had it in you until after you were already Human tar tar! NOT a good thing to be. In one of my favorite books called Those that hunt the night Someone injects himself with silver nitrate just before a vampire bites him, and it kills the vampire Of course they are both dead but the person had no escape

In the original movie" Frankenstein", the doctor's assistant was named Fritz, NOT Igor!  You can stump a lot of people with that nugget of knowledge.

NOT a good thing to be. Silver has some anti-bacterial qualities, which is why the early pioneers would put a silver dollar in their water barrels. I believe that silver is also an ingredient in some burn ointments for the same reason.
