Anyways. I think turning a tanker (assuming you can get it offshore) into a self sufficient vessel it would make a pretty nice zombie apocalypse retreat. Using saltwater evaporator devices(pic, can probably make something like that yourself), bringing enough soil and grain to grow your own food, and nets/fishing rods. Solar panels for energy (though the salty air will fuck then up pretty soon I guess). Obviously you'd have to have a shitload of time to prepare something like this, but I think it would be pretty sweet if you got it to run self sufficiently. | ||

Be alone, never carry anyone with me. Take clothes that are dark blue and that are tight. Take no weapon or anything with me beside a bit of watter, a small knife and a lighter. This is gonna be crazy outside and every body is gonna take their cars and shit and being violent. I'll try to stay as invisible as possible and walk like a ninja. If I can go to some place by climbing in some roof, I'll do so. I'll be aiming for some 1000ish people sized town with houses. I'll steal some basic stuff to eat in the empty flats when I need food for survival, But i'll try to get as discret as possible on top of a roof where I can have a good sight. I'll try surviving without carrying anything for better mobility and try to secure places where i can find ressources. I'll wait and wait and survive alone in the dark until I'm the only one in town. I'll watch carefully the movement of the zombie crowd and migrate from roof to roof. Once they deserting the town because their is no more brains,I'll be the new Ninja Sheriff of the town. And the town is gonna be called "Little Liquid", it will be the meeting for all TL survivors that can make it through. I'll give you the name of the town once it's getting serious. Carrying weapons and bags full of stuff will hurt your mobility and your stamina quite a lot. And you're gonna only survive by climbing, not running. I don't know how to use a car, but again, I won't try to use some, because this is what everybody is thinking : Getting out ! But if the chaos is everywhere, it will just make you more noticeable and trackable. The good part with that plan is that I actually don't need anything to make it work : no accessories, I'll live by my own hand (and a knife and a lighter just because it's small and usefull for survival) | ||

For all we know he could be some kind of trained ninja stick fighter or something. So after thinking some more, I've decided that if my weapon of choice can't be a plane ticket to Switzerland, the best way to fight a zombie would be on horseback, with a warhammer. Crushing skulls is probably easier than slicing through necks, especially when you've got all the leverage being on a horse would give you. | ||

The only reason people want a zombie apocolypse to happen, is so they can kill everyone they dislike and simply say, "hey, he/she was a zombie bro." completely true. | ||

Is the "virus" spread by bitten or bodily fluid contact? What are the full capabilities of a zombie (enhanced human abilities or just regular human-strength, clumsy or mutated freaks)? How to kill them, (whether or not decapitation is enough or is crushing the brain the only way)? Are the zombie complete ignorant to self preservation (ignores pain)? Do these zombies require subsistence at all (does it need to eat to sustain itself)? What are zombies, reanimated corpses or an entirely new organism that hijacks human bodies or some supernatural being? Do they require their internal organs to survive (other than the brain)? Can they survive extreme cold, heat, underwater (assuming their brain remains intact)? Any limits to their endurance? Any limits to their dexterity (can they run, jump, climb)? How long does it take an infected person to turn? This list can probable go on....along time. For weapons: Weapons like handguns, while handy, seems situational only for killing a zombie practically on top of you. I'd imagine low accuracy when trying to hit a moving target maybe 1/2 sq ft (brain) while its moving towards you in a group.... (insert personal panic, distractions (zombie moans), limited clip/ammo) For the guy about chainsaw above: That thing is like 10 pounds, runs on gas, noise attracts zombies for miles, and forces you to get really close to zombies.... it doesn't really sound like a reliable weapon. For stuff like cars, I'd imagine the streets be gridlocked with panicking people as soon as they learn of zombies.... Sorry for the long post (i know some people hate that) | ||

The vast majority of people and situations aren't going to have a fully decked out arsenal and be properly trained to use it. With that in mind most people aren't going to have many magazines to reload their weapons and are going to be slow in doing so relatively speaking. They will also not be good enough to really take advantage of any weapon's range or accuracy. Additionally the firepower of the shotgun can help a ton and again most people won't have that much ammo for the shotgun. If someone was decked out then the shotgun still stands out for its reliability, versatility, power, and efficiency. Hell at that point you could pick up magazines for your shotgun and even though the ammo is heavy it isn't terrible in comparison to how much damage you can do with it. The range becomes less ideal considering someone is really decked out but with the right ammo you can still shoot pretty damn far. | ||

Let me know if this plan would be good. I did not want to make a huge post and bother anyone so I put each step into a spoiler tag. + Show Spoiler + Weapons and time: (I won’t post pictures as I am not good at it and there would be a lot sorry) Weapons no problem over a dozen in our gun safe .22 rifle, under and over shotgun, double barrel shotgun 243 rifle just to name a few all scoped. most all clips over 12 rounds plus chamber, 7 boxes of shotgun ammo enough to take out maybe 200? Or so Zombies, a rough estimate between 1-2000 rounds all up for rifles. And an abundance of cane knives (2 foot handle 2 foot blade cut through a person in one swing with not to much effort google one most people I have shown one to think they are awesome lol) So we live about 2km’s from the closest person and like I said 90km or so from major city and coast I would assume it would take at least 4-5 hours in worst case scenario for any zombies to reach the farm so 4 hours of prep time Step 1:first We have Banana’s on the farm so we have a cooler room 30x40 foot next to a packing shed (100 foot by 40-50 foot) that is on stilts 5-6 ft off the ground so rather then stay home move into the shed and remove the steps unless there is climbing zombies problem solved for a while. Step 2: take John Deer tractor to next farm over and kill 15-20 head of cattle and load them onto the Carryall of the tractor drive them back to shed, I would say this might take 1 minute to kill the cattle(using guns of course) and say 20 minutes to load them maybe 30 minutes, then 30 minutes to return so 1 hour to complete that. Load all cattle into the cooler room and turn it down to -3 or -5 whatever is most optimal one bottle of gas will run it for one and a half months take gas bottles off water system and fridge that’s about 5 months or so of cold meat plus any extra gas bottles you steal from other houses, I guess at least a years worth of meat for a large family (for those of you that do not know if you get a cow cut up you get enough meat to last a 4 person family roughly 2 months) + Show Spoiler + Step 3: so the cooler room is 30x40 foot and 8 foot high and completely flat and 8 inches thick on all sides ground and roof, I assume it could most likely handle 1 foot of dirt all over its roof to plant small crops, that would probly take 2-3 hours to accomplish though, if it is plausible since you can step from the packing shed up onto the roof of the cooler room you don‘t have to go near the ground and it would be safe and more then enough fertiliser to grow anything is in the shed (4 tonnes lol) If not at least enough banana’s are around for years, orange and mandarin tree’s around 20 of each and over 400 mango tree‘s, spend and hour picking 5-10 purple crates of each type, that would be enough fruit and meat to last at least 1 year I suppose. Plus the tree’s will forever be there so u can replenish supplies anytime. Step 4: farm has two large dams with polythene pipe joining house and shed so pipe is already in the shed move pump from house to shed and reconnect in like 5 minutes enough water to last years, the shed has a rain tank 5000 litre if the dams become infected (problem would be finding out how and when they are infected volunteers anyone?) I think those would be the only steps I would need to take, the biggest problem would be ammo for me probly only have enough to get say 1500 kills, say 1000 for sure in case of missing, which is very unlikely, after that its all cane knives and brush hooks which are pretty lethal and long range weapons anyway. I guess it would take 3 hours to be completely prepared for me. if it had to be faster I could do it in 1 hour If less cattle/fruit/supplies were collected. One problem I did not think of until just now is, the door to the cooler room is on the ground so we would have to wait until no zombies were around to get in there, it would be fine if you have 4-6 people with guns while one goes down wouldn’t it? Plus u can get enough to last a week at a time I suppose? So how does that sound any good? Also if a Zombie apocalypse does break out any member of TL is welcome to shack up with me however there is one rule you must bring a cow from nearby farms with you, tie it to your tow bar or w/e and drag it so you have food lol. Edit: sorry I spelt injected instead of Infected in the water part. You are one prepared dude. Imagine if you and Zatic were together. I'd join you two in a heartbeat. Also lol @ Sheth | ||

On September 17 2011 05:23 wongfeihung wrote: My initial thoughts on your setup... + Show Spoiler + ![]() Also, is that a Remington or a Mossberg? I can never spot the difference off the top of my head. It's hard to tell because the most obvious differences are the control locations. Namely the safety and the action release. From the angle in the picture it's really hard to tell unless you spend craploads of time with them. Don't feel bad that you can't spot the difference, most people couldn't from the picture given. The Remington has the safety located pretty much on the frame just above the trigger guard and the action release forward of the trigger guard on the left side. The Mossy has the safety on the top of the gun, near the back of the receiver before the stock. The action release is near the back of the trigger guard on the right hand side. | ||

![]() Saiga 7.62x39, 300 rounds at my apt, 1500 at the parents. And my dagger. Not that this matters if there are zombies, but in Cali, Saigas are cool cause they are semi-auto rifles with fully detachable magazines. All the fancier assault rifles have "fixed" magazines here. | ||
