Guys, ME3. That is all.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Not exactly in the best position with the best chance of survival, I ran in the direction of where I assumed the Weirdly Disciplined Guys to be. Soon, piles of dead zombies started to point me in the right direction. After a few minutes, it hit me that I wasn't the only one running. Not even the only human running.
Fortunately, the Runners were ahead of me, and as the trail went cold for them and they slowed down, I managed to plant Oliver in the backs of both their skulls with minimal difficulty. Either those two were slow runners or the WDGs had a good head start, and I decided to acquire a new bicycle. This one quickly became Firefly.
The walking, brain dead drone zombies, while numerous, didn't have a clue how to react to me once I got going. Every now and again one would try and grab me, but I was moving fast enough that it wasn't an issue, and I had enough experience cycling to be able to avoid them as long as they weren't too packed together. Fortunately, the WDGs had cleared them out a bit, though cycling over dead bodies still wasn't really an option.
Eventually, I had to let Firefly go, and continue on foot. I'd travelled only about 5 or so blocks. Still, that was where I caught my first glimpse of the WDGs in a while. A young girl, obviously tackled to the ground and eaten, a group of bewildered zombies standing nearby. She had similar weapons to mine, a walkie-talkie and a machete.
Choices:
a) Kill the zombies, loot the body. (Gun or Oliver?)
b) Grab some stuff and run, don't stay to fight them.
c) Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming swimming swimming.

Depending on the size of the group I would probably go with B, but my kitty senses are telling me to just keep swimming. So I'll go with C.
Not really sure a group of zombies is a vague description. like 3-4 or 4-10? I guess B. Though if it is only 3-4 you could always charge in. CLubbing one in the back of the head while kicking in the knee of another. Then take out the last standing. Then you can go back and take care of the shattered knee one. Or charge in with crowbar in one hand pistol in other. If it's close range it won't be too hard to hit. club one in head, crush ones knee club other. Finish crawler. The pistol is only for an emergency.
Personally that is what I'd do. Sadly I don't really know how strong, and or coordinated the character is.

I definitely caught this thread at the wrong time. I've been reading through and I think it kind of starting devolving slightly after the whole blowing up the petrol station thing. Though I liked the rest, I'm betting it wasn't expected that it would be majority choice. It's all good, though. Roll with the punches.
Honestly, at this point, our only hope is that those guys aren't going to kill us on sight, and we can remember where the girl is to come back for later, assuming your face doesn't resemble bloody Swiss cheese. Taking on even a small group of zombies would take down our momentum and expose us to risk.

No point risking my life for a gun or ammo. It wasn't like I ever actually shot the gun anyway. Unfortunately, this was one of those times I wished I had.
The woman hadn't been overcome by a gang of shambling, brain dead cannibals. She'd been brought down by a gang of shambling, brain dead cannibals and one much faster leader. Before I knew what had happened, a howl rang out from behind me, and I was knocked off my bike to the ground. It only took me a second to draw my pistol, but by then the runner had sunk its teeth into my leg.
I managed- somehow- to put a bullet in its head before it really took a chunk out of my calf, but the bite still hurt like hell. Not to mention that the gunshot and the howl had attracted the attention of the aforementioned brain dead cannibals. Somehow remaining calm, I managed to shoot the closest two in the head and get to my feet. I wouldn't be running much now.
CHOICES:
a) Suicide/euthanasia.
b) Blaze of glory, inflicting pwnage on all nearby zombies before being overwhelmed.
c) Keep moving. Don't stop, don't give up.

Yep, that's a zombie bite. Shit just got real.

Not meaning to bring it all down just when you got here. Don't worry, there's still a chance for something possibly called a "good" ending. If you die now, it's a plotline death, so no restarts and no continues.Philip3477 said:
C because trying to kill the zombies will result in immediate death, suicide obviously will as well, keeping moving is our only chance. Our only hope. To rescue people and make our short life in this apocalypse worth it.
It's all good, I really like the thread and wish to participate in a few of the future ones you create (if you do): I think you're a pretty good GM.Ninjat_126 said:
