I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

Yeah, but it's the thought of it, and the fact that the memory stick is about as long as the base of an iphone
plus it's got three layers of encryption, and they can't make me give them the passwords, so I shouldn't have to swallow it

Meh,even if I'd have had mine as a PDF it would have been useless,basically everything I owned was underwater for several days.
true, what was it like having to live in the aftermath, we saw it on the news but it was always " somebody's been rescued from knee depth water" or "look an aligator swiming up a suburb street"*

Perhaps fashionising limited use "cannons" of a sort would work a bit better....
Thermite blunderbuss style hand cannons?
they have a word for that.... EPIC

the book itself is fairly useless, it doesn't even show how to make RDX, Just take [REDACTED] and nitrate it with [REDACTED], and when the particles settle treat with [REDACTED]. Mix with a plasticizer like [REDACTED] and voila, C4.

It's "funny" because at moments during the whole post Katrina fiasco I kept thinking to myself "this is what the outbreak of a zombie apocalypse would be like."
Of course...it's funny now, at the time...not so much.
The whole situation was a bit much to go into any great detail here...but feel free to PM me if you want the "long" version.
Suffice to say,we scavenged for food...at least to begin with,lots of folks were carrying guns and most people were less than happy with "authority figures."..
Not something I particularly enjoyed,but something I believe made me stronger...if that makes sense.

My friend has a potato cannon made from a WWII panzerschreck, we put a hole through both ends of a wooden canoo, and sank the entire thing... Needless to say that was one squad of paintballers who surrendered...
"Grab the potato Nuch!"
*Thump*
"Oh... They're sinking... Shoot them!!!"
Besides that, fire homemade explosives out of that maybe? Though the propellant may set the explosives off in the barrel...

Also, that doesnt prove anything other than GW has a huge hard-on for marines, and, given the option between making a xeno the best psykers or making a marine the best psyker, they will 9 times out of 10 choose the marine.

I just imagine zombie france like a country full of mimes... Pale... Rotting... mimes.
EDIT:...
This film was about a zombie outbreak in France...it was a bit Meh,but apparently French Zombies behave no differently than their counterparts in the rest of the world..ok,perhaps they were a bit more rude..but hey...they're French.

It will be, but over here it would probably still be the sort of book that would get you put on a 'list'

True..Castles would obviously make for excellent defensible positions,however...I question the assault value of a few flame throwers....sure it's fun,but...burnt zombie doesn't always =neutralized zombie.
Of course,from castle walls one could always drop various heavy objects (large rocks and such) onto the attacking zombies heads.
Well I'm thinking throwers going woosh onto hapless villagers..er zombies yea zombies from the castle walls, all the while wearing late Mideval armor and taunting the zombies with a snooty French accent. Occasionally they would have to fire giant wooden bunnies over the wall too.
Ok. The French guys are our Zombie survivors, King Arthur is the zombies. yes you knew I would have to go here.

No France would be unscathed, as both the zombies and the living tried to surrender to each other. Germany would likely be spared too as the German zombies irresistably invaded France ..v..e..r..y..s..l..o..w..l..y... the remaining German zombies would be busy very efficiently designing zombie BMWs and zomnbie Mercedes to be too much aof a nuisance.
OMG Zombie Hitler and Zombie Nazis!!! A full on excuse to bash the Bosch! Its a dream come true. Have to watch out for Zombie Zhukov and ten billion zombie Russian tankers recreated Bagration. Watch as hilarity ensues. Of course this is all part of Leichtenstein's evil plan for world domination. Luckily Team Weinie is ready to launch Dachshundskrieg...wo I have to quit sniffing those paint fumes in the morning.
As the immortal bard once said: even Kaiser Wilhelm couldn't control his pet dachshund...

Because I live in the south, and we have a reputation for canabalism when we aren't zombies! JK JK JK No, honestly because I own guns, several of them, and lots of ammunition, and more is easily attainable, however booze, and castle walls will be in short supply quickly. after all :
Guns & ammo + Castle + booze = comfortably survivable zombie apocalypse. throw a few females in there and you get a fun time.
AHH, The only problem with edinburgh castle is it's right in the center of town, i'd need move quickly to make it past the zombies, plus it would probably be used by the army/british equivilant of the CDC as a base, luckly GW edinburgh is literly on the same street, so we won't get bored

here's a question, in the apocalypse does nurgle get a re-roll to favor of the gods in 40k? and magical bonuses in Fantasy?
Yep, its a pretty elaborate plan if I do say so myself. In short, I'm going to become a nomad and only stay in rural unpopulated areas and live on the land and small settlements with only a manegable amount of zombies.

See...this is another example of good planing,IMO the more one is prepared to abandon large population centers and the "idea" that " Help will be here soon.",the more likely one is to actually survive.
This is one of the positive aspects of a "Zombie Apocalypse",those incapable of shaking off "heard mentality" and "addiction to creature comforts" aren't going to survive in great numbers.
