Sorry BigMan157, you don't get more than two.

Snewfs ideas about zombies are moronic and baseless. The overwhelming majority of people will be zombified in the initial waves, and the relatively small groups of survivors that succumb won't pose a significant thread.

Cooperation has always proven itself to be the preferable course of action. There's no counterexample in history. Being a "Lone Wolf" is as sure a way to die as any.

I especially like how Snewf writes off repopulation. Why bother surviving if there's no future for yourself, your line, and humanity? If we don't at least try to preserve our species, we might as well let ourselves succumb to the zombies.

The zombies will starve. They won't even have time to decompose, regardless of the climate. They will not live (at least not in a threatening condition) for more than four months. Take my word on it.

You will die, your line will go extinct. We, on the other hand, will live, and our ancestors will inherit the earth that fools like you abandoned so readily.

let me ask you this simple question

how many firearms do you have within 20 ft of you at the moment?

Your guns will run out of bullets. The hatchet and machete that I have within reach will not.

A bat is not the best melee weapon, but we don't plan on fighting nonstop. Clearly we'll have access to all manner of bludgeoning implements.

If you have a hatchet and a crowbar, you will end up relying on them, and quickly. Guns will only come in handy in the aftermath, if rival groups have them.

Gordon Freeman has already taught us that a crowbar can be very effective

A 12 gauge will not clear a packed hallway. It'll take out two, maybe three, tops, and that's if you've got the proper shells and it's sawn-off.

Remember, you've got to do more to incapacitate a zombie than you do a human. You have to inflict massive head trauma, or blow parts of them completely off. Perforating the chest ain't gonna take 'em down.

I'm well aware of this

but buckshot at close range aimed roughly at the head area is going to be effective

and since I'm also packing a .38 revolver and a .308... I'll be alright

^^How much ammo are you gonna have on you and how quickly are you going to be able to reload? Odds are that no weapon short of a light saber will get you out of a hallway full of zombies.

I would like to mention that I have no sense of smell.

But in a world populated with rotting corpses, that might be a good thing.

Bullets will kill zombies, but you don't have an infinite supply of them, and reloading's a bitch...

Wraith's right, if there's a hall full of the bastards, you just as well run, because you're fucked.

"I also liked the point about having a heads-up on people who might be getting ready to crack. What if one of us gets all fatalistic and decides it's better we join the zombies? We need to keep an eye out for that. I'm saying we should go all Big Brother, but there are signals not all of us may catch."


A way around this is to always have a team of two people at all times watching. However switching up the teams will help keep anyone from trying anything stupid and should help give different perspectives on peoples stress levels. As for paring off guy to girls right away I would not do it till after the major threat is gone. I am worried that it helps reduce the feeling of attachment should something bad happen.

There's really no need to worry about running out of plywood to board up windows. Each room has desks and dressers that can easily be dismantled and nailed up.

Baricading yourself inside a building is suicide. Its only a matter of time before someone fucks up,
(and someone will fuck up), and lets a zombie in. If one gets in, more will get in. Besides, You're all banking on the fact that they can survive at most a couple of months. You're also using human physiology to support your claims. Is it so hard to believe that any thing that might reanimate dead tissue simply doesnt need to feed, or need nourishment to survive? But they instead do so simply out of basic instinct.

Secondly, guns are your friends. Rifles and shotguns specifically. I understand the advantage of melee weapons in that there's no ammo to worry about, but the last place you want to be is within arms (or baseball bat's) reach of one of those fuckers. If you're close enough to hit one with a bat, you're close enough to get bitten. Ideally, you'd be carrying both. Use guns to drop them at range. (A single shot to the head is usually sufficient to put one down for good). And break out the bat/machete/sword/hatchet/board-with-a-nail-in-it to beat the ones you're unfortunate enough to get that close to.

that glass is fairly solid, and zombies don't know how to use objects to break the glass. they will break it eventually, but not before we can construct a solid barrier behind them.

and even if they DO breach it, they won't be able to get above the first level once we fall back and barricade the stairwells.

So when they do break in, you're going to fend off dozens, if not hundreds of zombies in a stairwell with baseball bats?

no... the stairwells will be locked and barricaded solidly, in advance (except for the one we planned on using). they would not be able to get through.

No. Zombies tend to gather in groups, and avoiding large groups wouldnt be all that difficult for a few decently armed people on foot. Being decently armed, taking out stragglers would be simple. The object being get as far away from population centers as possible.

Think about it. You guys are planning on fortifying a position with a dozen or two people....in a building that houses hundreds (hundreds of potential zombies already within your fortress), in the middle of a major fucking college campus? You will have Ten thousand zombies in the immediate area, many of which will be trying to break into your building. Sorry, but the zombies will win that seige.

^(some sort of large number)
I don't own any heels.

If I was at my parents house at the time of attack, we would be set. My brother collects swords and they're all "battle ready" sharp. We actually about sliced my friend's thumb off one day.
