What I want to say is that even the likes of Murphy could have her uses in the right time and place. The smallest nail could possibly end up determining the victory or defeat of the battle.

And Indeed. If you put Murphy in the front charge as some kind of infantry soldier, Murphy would be dead. At this rate, a turtle neck goon would pose more danger to Murphy compare to Ethniu. But chances are high that Murphy would not be in such a frontline charge.

She is following Harry. Which means she is going to conduct special operations type of activity instead of an infantry charge. She is going to be there facing the big baddies with Harry beside her in a relatively not so chaotic battle. And Harry as we know, has max out his taunting and drawing Aggro skill. Add Murphy's own stealth bonus I mentioned before,, she has a reasonably decent chance to survive as long as Harry could draw hate and tank properly which should provide opportunities Murphy could capitalize.

Except she isn't physically up to any of that.  She proved that in Peace Talks, oh there were a couple of brief flashes, but she isn't up to what you describe above.

Conspiracy Theorist:
Murphy won’t even be able to drive for Harry, all cars in Chicago are done, and even if the Munstermobile is working  she can’t reach the pedals. He even mentions it is a dinosaur resistant to a lot of magic and survives Harry’s veil.

Talking of dinosaurs this why I think Sue will be in play, Dresden steering with Murphy, Lara and Freydis behind him in that exact order. Harry doesn’t  trust Lara and Murphy doesn’t trust Freydis . Sues top speed is about twice that of Harrys’ and whilst Freydis and Lara could keep up, Murphy couldn’t

One still has to climb up on a dinosaur, even if Sue got on her belly, Murphy's knee and shoulder are still not functioning very well for climbing and pulling up.  Harry could lift her up I suppose, but if he has to do that, she isn't in good enough physical shape.

Conspiracy Theorist:
Freydis would very willingly give her a leg up.

Yeah, but Murphy might think she is hitting on her... ::)
