Zombie Apocalypse!

[roy-nexus-6]

The Zombie Apocalypse starts now.

Wherever you are when you read this - those are the cards you've been dealt. No zombie will approach your building for 24hrs. Whatever you have there, you can use. The power will shut off in 1 hr. No water pressure after 24 hrs.

99.999% of the population appears to have been infected. The zombies are those fast moving SOBs from 'Dawn of the Dead' (new version): they don't walk - they run, flat out, & they never tire.

How will YOU survive. Are you reading this from a fully stocked nuke bunker, lucky you! If not, what will you take with you? Where will you go? What do you need to get there? How will you survive once there?

Ok, wherever you are, I'm not gonna go for a start.

I'm at home - small town, Australia. Single story dwelling, windows composed of large sheets of glass. Not good.

Ok, it's bad outside now... don't know if it'll get better or worse. I'm gonna hide out in the ceiling space for a few days for a start. I'll be drilling holes in ALL the room's ceilings so I can see down, make sure the coast is clear.

I have a few buckets & pans for water. And enough food for maybe two weeks. Water is the problem.

Weapons: none to speak of. Large buckmaster knife, kitchen knives. Not good.

Clothing: leather motorcycle jacket. Only got denim jeans - they can bit through those. I'm gonna take the viser off my helmet... bore some holes in the side so I can hear better.

sorry man   'Dawn of the Dead' zombies run faster than normal humans... they run flat out without ever tiring. Rent the movie!

Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Scream horribly as a bus load of zombie middle schoolers devour you from the feet up.

Where's that... I need a tactical shotgun thread...

first, i book it for home. i'm on an enduro so i can go offroad without too much worry since it hasn't rained for a week. home is where the weapons are. plently of long range edged weapons. i can prob store enough water for a couple of weeks. i'm in an old 2 story home that has been divided into 2 seperate apartments by floors. i'm also in a highly populated area so chances are i won't make it. it might be better to risk driving out somewhere less populated.

i'm not sure what i would do about food. there are a few restaurants and deli's nearby. i could prob get a few non perishables from there, or do i risk going to the grocery store and grabbing canned goods?

step one is to take out the stairs leading to our deck and door.
step 2 is to barricade the 2 doors leading into the apt.
step 3 is cover the windows and pathways
step 4 is to make sure the weapons stay sharp and try to wait as long as i can.

hell, if it's that bad just douse yourself in ketchup and lay down in the middle of the street.  why make yourself suffer longer than necessary?

Around here, our zombies are mostly vegetarian hippies, so your pretty safe as long as your not made of

GRAINS...... GRAAAAIIIINNSSSS

I always thought DC is make the beast with two backsed w/ Arlington being so close.

Zombie soilders w/ all the great American Army / Navy / Air Force leaders next to the capital? And even a dead President and his family too... Thats a bad make the beast with two backsing card delt there...

[ducsix]

Well, I'm in a 3rd floor window office with a strong door, and a shopping bag full of munchies and 2-liter bottle of water, so I could hole up and be fine...but make the beast with two backs that, going home to get my wife & kids is priority #1.

I've got a well stocked lab across the hall with plenty of nasty acids & flammable solvents, but that's not much good if the zombies are fast.  No other weapons except a pocket knife.  I didn't ride my bike today so there isn't even a helmet for protection.  I'm in a heavily populated area outside DC so there are lots of zombies around.  Shit.  I can make it to the car by jumping onto the 1 story roof below, and from there to the parking lot without being seen.  Full tank so I don't have to worry about getting gas.  I'd get in the car and hightail it for home, grab the family (yeah they're still alive), shotgun, bows, plenty of knives, and backpacking gear, and make a bee-line for a place we have in the middle of bummake the beast with two backs west virginia to wait things out.

I figure the zombies will run out of food in a few weeks, maybe a month, then we're good to go!

I'm at work right now in a lab bout 5 stories up i could hole up here but thats no good, this is on Long Island in NY.  As tough as the door is and as good as the water supply might be its too populated here with the hospital and all right next door more and more zombies will be coming in every second!  I grab 1 jug of water and a steel pole from the lab my backpack and get to my car taking all the outside exits starting on the 4th floor to avoid being seen. I take my Club as a weapon from the car.  Call the GF on the way home she is upstate, which is impossible to make cause i would have to go thru NYC, and hope she can find a secluded spot there somewhere, give her all the tips i can.

  Race home, with only about a 1/4 tank of gas, plenty to get home, i have a Toyota 4runner so offroad will be no issue if needed.  If i have to i will ram anything out of the way and my area near my house is very sparsely populated.  On the way home stop at my buddy lewin's farm he has tons of guns and ammo and stock up telling him the plan.  Call pops on the way home too he has a helicopter or plane we can take to the nearest island.

Make it home and grab my motorcycle race suit, boots, gloves, helmet.  My bro has the same gear and hand my extra stuff out to my mom and her friend.  Throw all nonperishables and water into the my car and our chevy avalanche.  Dogs go in the Chevy.  Head out to meet my dad at the airport 5minutes we take the plane or chopper out to one of the islands on the bay and setup in any of the abandoned homes out there .  Hole up for a month or more and hope they all starve to death. 

This whole plan can be executed in 24hours easy.

Im at home with scrap metal and a welder and a Ford E350 and a full tank of gas and knobby tires (1.25 inch long knobs). Gonna go hide  in the garage and chill for a few with my welder to make a vehicle capable of killing anything in sight.


no one is home so chances are everyone is dead.

run to the local gun shop, grab some weapons and some brave souls, load up the van and try to kill.

I live in brooklyn, so at this time of the day 60% of hte populartion is in the manhattan, so im sure i can clear 10,000 bodies within a sqaure mile. maybe it would be less than that. Zombies wont be able to make it across the bridge because they would be jammed with cars and zombies cant navigate tight spaces. unless they are RAGE zombies, which arent really zombies, just infected humans. in that case, im gonna get my flame thrower out.cut a hole in the van and burn a pile of dead bodies around me and laugh.

[the_Journeyman]

Might set an explosion causing all the cars jammed onto a bridge to detonate chain reaction style.  That'd slow 'em down!
