Out of Character: I thought you would have at least suggested the jungle because the swamp is probably going to be like swarming with crocks and snakes and did I even mention piranha! This is going to be like a flipping nightmare to go through.
Honestly, jungle or swamp are the same for me. The swamp hides another danger: how do you call in English that sand that sucks you to its bottom and the more you try to get out the more you sink? But the jungle means spiders, snakes, monkeys and piranhas as well. Both are darn dangerous. I don't think we have any good choice there: whatever our path will be, danger will lurk behind any corner.
Big felines can be scared away with a shot. Thus keeping us a bit safer. I do not like the sounds of swamps, and rivers because of quicksand and other hazards. The thick jungle is full of other dangers like snakes that fall out of trees and other things. I think I would take my chances with the big cats.
Out of Character: Yeah I'm kind of sticking with the mountains, maybe we have a better chance of seeing what's coming but it depends it could be like jungle there too.
If the others agree, let it be the mountain! As I said, I will just go along with the majority. We are called here to choose blindly between three potentially dangerous solutions: in the end, it will be about luck and not wisdom.
Out of Character: We could like scout each before we take them. We have communicators so we know what each other is doing all the time.
Out of Character: Totally agreed, mountains sound like the way to go. Wild cats generally won't attack a large group anyways.
I don't like the idea of splitting up to scout the locations. We should stay together and scouting them one by one would take too long. Moreover, scouting the area will only tell us what the first mile looks like but still we would not know what could be waiting for us further ahead. Just choose the mountains if you guys like it most.
