What is your Zombie contingency plan?

[Shaft]

The dead have risen, they're hungry and they're coming for you. Wherever you are, no matter what you're doing you need to have a zombie contingency plan.

To avoid debates on the type of zombies that are invading, lets just say they're your classic type of re-animated dead. Like the one's from the Romero movies but unable to run or move quickly. If you've read The Walking Dead comic book series by Robert Kirkman, those are the classic type of zombies I'm refering to.

So what is your plan?
Where would you go?
What weapon(s) of choice would you bring?
Who would you take with you?

For those of you have read the Zombie Survival Guide now's your chance to shine! There will be a prize for the best contingency plan. So get to work! smile

1. Set up a base (a secluded location somewhere high that many points in which sniper rifles can be equipped).
2. Loot the nearest weapons store (stock up on everything and anything that can kill zombies)
3. Locate other uninfected persons (But never without proper weapons)
4. Call for help (Preferably at your base, the most appropriate people would be the CIA. But the government probably already knows about the problem)
4. Make sure to stay hidden while help arrives (Somehow zombies will always be following you so make sure that your are properly disguised)
5. Why does no one do this? This is an untested method but try disguising yourself AS a zombie. Ripped clothing, slow movements and typical groaning should get you pretty far if your in a are that is heavily populated with the undead.
6. SHOW NO MERCY! You may see your closest friends and family turning on you in an attempt to rip your heart from your chest. Do NOT hesitate to shoot them down. Hesitation WILL result in horrible death.

Ps. Get a crowbar from somewhere. Its the ultimate weapon against zombies, it doesn't run out of ammo and can get you in crates and doors that can help you survive.

Think about it. The governments solution to a zombie epidimic would have to be sterilization. So my goal would be to get to the least populated area that I could. Or out on the water.

I'd find a boat, stock it up with food and drink, a radio, navigational stuff like maps, compass, gps, whatever...

I wouldn't have to raid a gunstore. Just hoist some of my grampa's pieces. He won't need them anymore, considering the poor guy can't run. So I have to assume he's dead, or hungry for my brains.

I'd put out to sea and head for Switzerland. If they have zombies there, at least they'll be nuetral.

But you know how it goes. Best laid plans of mice and men and all that bizzness. I'd be dead within the hour. Trying to save my family, my friends, my lady.


BTW watch Shaun of the Dead. They sneak past a crowd of zombies by acting like zombies themselves. Like you were saying.

Well let me just list mine.......

1/ RUN LIKE HELL!

[jakeometer]

Laptop
Sleeping Bag
Motorbike

Go down to Piccaddily Gardens in Manchester and kick the biggest zombies but, then maybe go down south, do the same again and hang the corpse over the channel tunnel so all the foreign zombies see it as they come to the UK. Then no zombie will touch me because i have such 1337 skills and i'll be free to roam the Earth as i see fit.

It's all that's needed tbh. No guns. No barracading. No grouping together. No hording the local Tesco's.

Step 2: Recruit drivers
Step 3: Obtain tar trucks
Step 4: Cover ground in surrounding area in thick sticky tar
Step 5: Wait for them to walk into and get stuck in the tar
Step 6: Burn them all!!!

1 - multipul bases of operation

a) HQ- my work as it is a concrete building with big thick wooden doors.
b) Small suppermarket ie tesco metro ( roller shutter's on each entrance )
c) underground base ie old nuke bunker ( a place to bring civilians who need help)

2 - weapons. there must be a few.

a) samurai sword ( as we all know to cut of the head )
b) glock 9 a few of these are needed ( for close range )
c) 12 gauge pump action shotgun ( for total anialation )
d) LUSA A2 9mm submachine gun ( for that rapid fire situation )
e) Heckler & Koch Granatmaschinenwaffe (grenade machine gun) for group kills

3 - Transport

a) convert garbage trucks in to battle ready vehicles. with gun turets on top and side guns
B) use sewage systems to move about convert old go garts to help navigate them

4 - End game
In result of them overwelming us i would detonate a nuke to destroy them. i want to take as many of them with me as i can.

man i have played to much House of the dead and Resident evil

[virgilcane]

I think the obvious approach is going to be to willingly join their ranks and then situate myself in a position of power within their ranks

I for one plan on being your new zombie overlord

[keefer]

can zombies "do it"?

[xrnzaaas]

1) Stock up on fuel & supplies
2) Leave the city
3) Find a good place to survive for at least a few months (prefarably a large boat)
