**optimusprime14**

Just not be the slowest runner in the group

**Corpsesarefun**

Head to the local easily secured building, secure it and wait for things to die down a bit.

This isn't the same without FITZZ.

**Mr. Burning**

Watch out for the new strain of Zombie Zombies.

Kill all the human survivors before they kill me.

**Vulcan**

There is one question I have. Are these magically animated dead bodies, or virus-infected living ones? It makes a HUGE difference in strategy and tactics.

**Seaward**

Coworkers: a convenient source of food in a post-apocalyptic environment.

**Bromsy**

I would rock this mother-loving planet.

**AustonT**

Take care of any "lists" you may have first...it's the Zombie apocolypse who's going to know?
Then scrape out a living until you are overcome, your life will be short and brutal.

**Coolyo294**

I would go down in blaze of glory.

**Alexzandvar**

Turn my Warlord Titan into a real Warlord Titan and CRUSH THE FOUL ZOMBIE HERETICS. COWER IN FEAR ZOMBIES, THE OMNISSIAH COMES TO CRUSH YOU ALL.

**LoneLictor**

I would of dehydration on my roof if I was lucky. If I wouldn't I roll off before then and get devoured painfully by ZOMBRAHS.

**Joey**

Walk around with a dumbell hitting zombies until I died.

I just call them expendables. when things get tough bind one of them to a childs electric bike and send them on their way as a diversion.

**Sonophos**

Get to the sea. Get a boat. Get a big ship. Get to an uninhabited island with as many survivors as possible.

Ships have reverse osmosis units and if you get a big enough one you can fill it with top soil to farm until the zombies die out or not.

If you can get your hands on a naval vessal you can have some real fun.

Zombies don't swim and even if they do they can't climb smooth metal.

NB stay the feth away from unmanned nuclear reactors

**Aquaterry**

I can't tell you!
If you become infected, you'll know where I am and what I have planned!

I can however mention that it involves a paddle with chainsaws duck-taped to each end

Aquaterry

**SagesStone**

Die.

I'm realistic, not optimistic nor pessimistic...

I mean uh, grab a lead pipe and beat everything in sight. I'd also have one of these.

**LooT**

Get my family to a safe place. Get my friends together, get their families safe. Arm up. Forage. Violently. Survive.

**master of ordinance**

virus zombies.

Ide fortify my local sainsburys(of which just happens to have a B£Q next door. then ide get the tractors from my college armour them up and raid a military supply base. then ide sick claymores on the outside of my tractors and tanks. and big ploughs/spiked rolly balls of doom. ide also fortify the combine/forage harvesters. then ide build up a sizeable community of survivers and....... SURVIVE
we would use M113s with the roofs fortifyed with barbed wire and fences and machine guns at every corner and claymores strapped to the hull to gather supplys from the citys. alternatively Ide grab 2 heavy machineguns from somwere and perform a last stand.

Steal an APC from the local garrison at colchester, hide in it. Drive into supermarkets if supplies are needed. And fill up at petrol stations or syphon fuel

Small Flaw: Petrol stations don't work if there is no elecricity and cars have non return valves and locking petrol caps fitted to stop you siphoning most trucks don't so make sure your vehicle runs on deisel.

Otherwise good plan. If you are in colchester I would recommend some kind of tank (preferrably with an autoloader) rather than an APC. At least all British armoured vehicles come with tea making facilities (This is actually a MANDATORY design feature for them).

**obsidianaura**

Hmm maybe if i could find a pump i could pump the fuel out of the delivery tubes?

Also how about a hand drill into the cars fuel tank then i could transfer the fuel that way?

One word: Sparks

I give advice and tought on this because I will need other survivors for my plan to work.

Ah ha, but APC will be running diesel which cant be ignited by sparks, unless I accidently drill a petrol car i should be ok. I'd have to check carefully before hand. Look for a D on the back

Had a new thought too, could go to Colchester Castle and pinch a suit of armour? Zombies cant bite me that way... mind you people were smaller then, probably wouldn't fit me.

**AustonT**

Just because it's more difficult to ignite diesel doesn't make it impossible.
They also make hand pumps for fueling without power, I don't know that they'd have them at your local garrison has one, but they're out there.

**Sonophos**

I just thought of a way round this issue.

Duct tape a small silicone tube to the end of your siphon hose to let air into the tank as it siphons. This will effectively bypass the non return valve.

**Krellnus**

Replace one of my hands with a chainsaw, announce that it is groovy, pick up my boomstick and kick some zombie ass!

**Great White**

First I would have to go shopping for everything on my z-day list.
