Take a look at this awesome house!

I wonder how much stockpiling could be done in the basement....


Ha, Not bad at all, I'd imagine you'd be able to stockpile quite a bit there as well.

I still prefer the " bunkers" KC found, but the house isn't bad.

Still think the underground bunkers are better, the "zombie proof" house is nice, but offers little in the way of protection from " non-zombie" threats ( unless I'm missing something).
A few hostiles with RPG's could prove problematic...and serious explosives may bring the whole structure down.

I mean, yeah. I would be in the bunker with you guys, but to have that home as a nice shack in case of being stranded? That would be nice.

It defianitly would appear to have more in the way of "creature comforts" that's for sure, with it's "shields" down, a reliable power source and a well stocked pantry, one could almost forget the " troubles" out side.
Of course that in itself could become a problem.

EDIT:...Now here's a zombie proof home.

You know, if you attached the " zombie proof" house to the "silo home", and added a few features ( connected gun/look out towers, underground escape routes...) you'd really have the perfect " Zombie fort".
Anyone want to get in on the ground floor of development?

I know that when we were shutting down our Atlas missile silos, one man bought the land it was on, excavated out the main tunnel/first room (they were filled in), then built a little bungalow over it. He lives in a silo for the main portion of his house.

Well me and FITZZ already agreed to start funding back when I posted the missile silos , and they are HUGE so Im sure theres plenty of room for other investors.






Any and all investors acknowledge the fact that KC can and will eat any/all of the investors/tenets of said silo when all food rations runs out, or he becomes mildy to severely insane from lack of sleep/40k/crazy sex. Youve been warned.

ok,if you want to be safe,you do this.

stay out of cities and towns.

go deep into a large forest/jungle.

go to a place only accessible by water.

try to do these thing,although most likely cant do all. if these rules dont keep you safe,your most likely screwed anyways.
