You guys had to know this thread was coming, and if not, well shame on you!

So, we are running out of time, what are your guy's zombie plans and zombie weapons that you have on hand?

I'm still planning on holing up inside of a farmhouse and burning the surrounding trees. Will give me a good view of everything around me, plenty of shootin room, and all I have to do is wait until the winter comes to freeze the undead so I can find any random crowbar or wrench and break them apart.

I have two guns, along with a mace we have from a while ago. Completely metal, and it's blunt, so I naturally don't have to worry about it going dull.

Your move.

Party hard at the Zombie Games. Bring it baby! In the words of the immortal bard: honey badger don't give a gak!

Ten thousand thousand wiener dogs wait, burrowed under blankets and in their kennels, awaiting the sounding of the Great Dachshund, the Yap of the Wienertime.

The local supermarket has an office section two stories above it that is only accessible by one ladder with a hatch, the ventilation area above the shop floor or a staircase. If I were to block up said staircase and barricade the hatch somehow you could access the main shop with relative safety by climbing down from the ceiling .

If the staircase is already barricaded my maul and thermite stash may finally come in handy!

Your move.

You realize that you are hoping that some walking corpse is going to be subject to known biological laws? The very fact that it's a dead dude walking around puts hopes that he will freeze on"thin ice", as a zombie is demonstrating that it already has blown one very big biological law out ofthe water.

If it was me, I'd keep on the move, going into towns only long enough to restock, perhaps hooking up with other people along the way and eventually build up a tribe similar to the old Mongols. Hit and run, baby.

Come what may: The end of the world, the zombie outbreak, the destruction of man, the rise of apes, the fall of civilization...

I WILL see the Hobbit...and then I can die a happy man...

Amen/

What if the zombies steal all of the copies?

I would need these items (Can't get them a few of them yet, but have most of them, just not firearms).

1. Crowbar- Killy, buildy, and all around a multi purpose tool.
2. Blowtorch and Propane: Fire, welding, weapon, light, etc.
3. Hunting bow: Silent, deadly, easily transported, low recoil
4. Road Flare: Signal, light source, fires, weapon
5. Shark suit: If it can stop a shark from biting into you, it will stop a zombie.
6. Clip Semi Auto Rifle: Primary weapon, good in a pinch, mountable add ons for multitude of excursions.
7: E-Tool: Shovel and CCW. What's not to love?
8: SMG: Small, compact, low recoil, great for heavy firefights.
9: Freeze-dried food: Food, sustenance.
10: Ribcraft boat: Well, I'm going to be protecting an island...

This plan was simple enough. I live on a man-made peninsula, so I would blow the bridge. The houses in my area are large, and mostly owned by old people, so we will take the wood for the barricades from them (Sorry old people). There can be sniper towers, as there are boats elevated to high positions and cranes, and make the barricades on the beaches. Using the shovels, we will build Viet-Kong style death pits all over the beaches, and a row of massive trenches. By this time, the Bird Sanctuary will have it's pond scavenged for water. This will serve as food (Animals) and water (Water from the pond). Use the gas from the cars (Seeing as how the island houses less than 200 people, we won't be needing them) to heat the houses during the winter. Animals will need to be killed, but some pets will be harmed. They might be safe, as long as they don't go outside the barrier. We will last as long as we can until the unbelievably rich guy comes with the heli to save us, and if he doesn't, we can kill fowl that wanders near us, and send a retrieval team to grab it.

I think about this stuff. HARD.

Kill the zombies.

No meticulously planned plot of punishing puny zombies?

What about zombies walking en masse underwater to come up onto the island? What is your line of escape? I mean, who gets the boat, and how do they snake it from the others on the island?

The boats will not be a problem...

I'm coming to your island, provided there are no such things as zombie pirates!

How many women will you have on your island, are they of age, and are they hot?

Slarg232 wrote:How many women will you have on your island, are they of age, and are they hot?

1. A lot
2. Most of them are 55+, but there are a few teenagers, yes.
3. The teenagers are meh to hot, the MILFs are far and few between.

Also, this is the island, and the bridge (causeway, if you're a technical arsehole) is about 1/3 of a mile, to scale it.

.

Bah. I'll be in the mountains of the frozen north, building my stronghold.

If you survive your island folly, approach Chocorua mountain with standards bearing my likeness. I will accept all of your women, and the men on a case by case basis. Excluding former dakkanauts, of course.

Lets count out those 15 ccw's I procured from my martial arts class, plus the fact I can sneak well. I know a place 3 doors down which is basically a solid granite cube, surrounded by granite walls with razor wire on top. The guy who lives there is a friend of ours, and he's a survivalist. Essentially, 3 floors of room, with spiral staircases linking each.

As soon as I get the news Zack is waking, get my pack with a weeks worth of MRE's, water purifiers, my medication (a months worth) and the shotgun and rifle ammunition. My missus gets her pack, with the solar radio and other bits and bobs. Walk 3 houses up, and let ourselves in.

we have underground power, so power only would go off at the substation. water is catered for by a lowbore well. once the infestation gets over the initial overrun stage, (first week), start going out in groups of 3 to get supplies (we have approximately 20 or 30 people in 3 houses like these).

Wouldn't even bother with my house, as it's got a plate glass windowed front, and no alternate exit.

I plan on making my way to the lakefront. Grab as many RTE packs as possible, a water filter, a replacement, a gun (preferably a sturdy semi-automatic rifle) and a surplus of bullets. Sail to one of the light houses. They have rock beaches, so zombies will have a harder time scaling them. Take watches for each person (about 7) until this either blows over when the military arrives, or wait it our for the long haul. Supply raids will performed as a last resort, in groups of 3-4. Speed is necessary , and focus will be to get in, get out, minimal fuss. Bitten are to be shot and incinerated. Crossbows would be nice as well.

Let us not forget the trained military zombies. oh what a nightmare that will be, coming in helicopters fully armed and wearing combat gear.

My plans vary depending what type of zombies we get. If they are strictly human slow moving kinda dumb zombies, this leaves way more options open.

If they are fast sorrta smart strictly human zombies, then I am getting on a boat and going to a little island far enough off the mainland coast to not be bothered. Then I will eat fish and fruit, veggies, birds, whatever.

If the zombie infestation affects not only humans, but also animals, consider me somewhat screwed. Follow former plan, but kill all wildlife on island upon arrival, become vegetarian. yukk.

If they are quick funstional smart zombies, there is nowhere to hide but the most remote of locations, and I have a few in mind. I will not tell you where, because a smart zombie could say read this, and form up a zombie army and get me.

What about the zombie plants?

2012 zombie apocalyse is so last year.

It has been discussed to death.

Pun intended?

I thought this was meant to be a planetary crust moving, ball-of-molten-rock-that-you-can't-possibly-survive type apocalypse?

If it's Zombies: Have a bag containing food, water bottles, fire starting gear, a tent and spare clothes ready. Head to the garage and grab that big old axe in there and head for the hills. Hide in the mountains and kill any zombies that come near, whilst living of game such as grousee and venison. Living in the Highlands has it's advantages! If I'm still in Edinburgh then I raid Homebase at the top of the road for some form of weapon, steal a car, head for the highlands and carry out the above plan!

My plan, if the zombie apocalipse materialises, involves getting bitten by a zombie then roaming the land looking for human flesh to feast on.

Buy now you fools!

May I also reccommend The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks. It has a lot of good stuff in it!

This is what the Aliens want!

They want us to think about Zombies so the inevitable invasion will catch us off guard!

YOU FOOLS HAVE DOOMED US ALL!
