YOUR zombie apocalypse survival plan

[Emilie Diabolica]

Already hashed this out with my brother. Cut off the back and front outside staircases (with a concrete saw, duh), fortify the lower storey as best possible, then bring all people and useful stuff from downstairs, upstairs. Then we'd proceed to barricade the inside staircase with the concrete blocks from the demolished staircases.

Voila! The house, well, the upstairs at least, will be inpenetrable unless the zombies figure out how to use grappling ropes or makeshift ladders to climb up to one of the balconies.

All that remains now is to build a helipad on top of the house, and find a helicopter somewhere so we'll be able to go on food and ammo runs. Oh, and attach a turret to each of the balconies.

Yay! Inpenetrable fortress!

I live in Australia, so I only have two options. 1. A long walk off a short pier, or 2. Save time and jump into a crowd of zombies. I suppose I could find a baseball bat, but without a gun that would just be putting off the inevitable.

Still, look on the bright side; Michael Atkinson will save us all, seeing as he's so damn good at protecting the Aussie populace from all manner of nasty, nasty things!

I live in sydney, so you can come help out at my fortress!
We'll need to run down to the cop shops and military bases for guns and ammo and stuff...

Islands won't work that well. I suppose the wall would do it but zombies may not be able to swim but they don't need to breath so they can just walk across the bottom of the lake/ocean ala-Pirates of the Caribbean (I know they were skeletons but the point is the same).

Ah, but their putrid flesh would quickly be devoured by crabs, shrimp and other little scavengers. And, presuming the virus won't affect other species, that would be the perfect waste bucket for all future dismembered zombies.

Myself, I would take my solar-powered water purifier and steal a decent sized sailing boat and go fishing for a couple of months.

I'd get on a fucking boat? Seriously, have you ever heard of zombies SWIMMING? Just chill out there, like a Bawss. This was btw a huge flaw in the "I am Legend" plot. If those incestuous bastards can't stand the sun, get a big yacht, stock up, and off you go! On a boat...

While I agree over all, The problem is that now you have the issues of living on a boat. Fresh water suply, risk of storm, extremly lonely, and the actual technical expertise needed to operate a boat.

You'll go crazy or starve long before the zombies get you. Only upside is that the zombies couldn't get you no matter how hard they tried.

I prefer well fortified islands. A four or five foot concrete platform all along the edges, and multi-ringed line of defense will ensure not only absolute safety but a natural irrigation system for growing your own crops. Shame it's so bloody expensive to do that sort of thing.

Water is easy, you just need a purifier. They are electric and can thus run on solar power or wind power.
A sailing boat is not that hard to operate, sure it requires some skill, but that is not to hard to come by. Will both aid you in the zombie holocaust and is a fun past time until then as well.

As for food, I should probably add vitamin supplements and some rice to the water purifier as well.

We talking about the fast moving ones or the traditional, slow moving ones?

Plans are different for each.

 

[Captain Schpack]

At the designated safe house shotguns, katana, knives, minguns, mines, rocket launchers, LMGs.\



ohh



and




um




uh




<size=6> SEARCH BAR !! (I DON'T EVEN HAVE TO CHECK ON THIS ONE!!!!!!)

 

[Spiner909]

As I have read the zombie survival guide, I know what to do...

Go to abandoned prison
Make said prison fortress
Kill zombies
Repeat

 

[fgdfgdgd]

the deserted army barraks outside of town, , it has 4 meter high concrete walls and a bullet proof solid steel door, plenty of room to grow crops and keep animals, all i'd need is about 12-30 people with me to inhabit it, im sure there would be some munitions still locked up somewhere in there.

EDIT: so long as their are no Zombie Birds, ala: resident evil movies

 

[Eggsnham]

Well, it all starts with finding out if your friends are okay, and weeding out the "Healthies" from the "Sicklies" I then choose the 8 fittest of my friends and family, go to a small and secluded town ASAP and find a gas station, Kwik E mart etc. to sustain our group until help arrives. Then while we're waiting, we'll have to find weapons, melee weapons will do, but ranged weapons and ammo are better. Our group will have to be subdivided into 3 mini groups, the barricaders/foragers (when the need arises) the resting group, and the guarding group. Should I or one of my group be infected, we will either drive them into a place far away (at least 20 miles) if they haven't turned, or kill them if they have turned. If help doesn't arrive for more than a month, we'll have to switch locations, that's basically the plan.

Remember kids, the basic rules to any zombie apocalypse are:

1. Don't hog resources, you're as good as your friends.
2. survive.
3. Shit happens. Yes that's a rule.

Well..... I have to think about SOMETHING before I fall asleep.



Oh yeah and, plan B is to... KICK SOME ZOMBIE ASS!

My friends and I have a rather intracit (?) plan of survival. Once we all meet up, there would be about 10-30 well armed people, two of which are militarily trained, and we hold out in the local high school. Then, we'll head north to the Upper Peninsula (?) of Michigan/Canada.

 

[irishstormtrooper]

None. Because, believe it or not, [HEADING=2]Zombies don't exist.[/HEADING]

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Why do I need one? Everyone knows Zombie Apocalypses never happen in Canada.

 

[KiruTheMant]

You know those thick Hybrid SUV's with the gasfill in the backseat?Load my car with guns,gas cans full,and Start playing Trucker.

If that didn't work theres always the Default.

Virus - Kill anyone who shows signs
Bite - Immediatly cut off bitten part,if too late,kill
Curse - CTHULHU SUMMONING,LET THE WAR BEGIN
Surgery / Mutation - Gets cars,get Gas,if hummer,make a few racks to hold on to,and stockpile guns.I'm a welder,I can armorplate it.

Soooooooooo, is this considered irony or is it just a coincident, I can never tell the difference between the two.

Anyway, my plan is to follow Griff up to Alaska "They'll freeze like corpuscles!"

 

[minidevil921]

Don't worry in the when zombies take over the world guns and ammo are every where =).

 

[Brad Shepard]

Guns, friends, and get the hell out of town, then find a safe house and hold up there untell its safe.

 

[rokkolpo]

dude what a original & insightful thread.

why did no-one else think of this?

Wow... Sarcasm... That's original.

just as original as the thread.

 

[ThisNashGuy]

Alright...

I'd probably get a shot-gun, shells, a suicide pistol (if necessary.) from my local police station, cans of gasoline, matches, crisps (or chips if you're american.), a machete, the zombie survival guide and my ipod touch, camp out in my barricaded house, wait for my friend (who happens to have a helicopter.) to pick us up, and then we would try get out of britain, maybe find a secure area outside the country, maybe an island, or if he won't I'll would find a jail cell with maybe a few family and friends and my supplies, lock myself in, and shoot the approaching zombies to pass the time.

 

[dalek sec]

Turn into a zombie during initial infection. I'm fairly confident that almost everyone in this thread will suffer the same fate.

This, get killed during the initial zombie outbreak by a zombie or get killed at our verison of Yonkers.

 

[lolandrew4]

I live in Northern Canada, all I need to do is survive til winter, than BAM it will be a zombie massacre

 

[The_ModeRazor]

Heh, out here on Mars the zombie apocalypse is not an issue as long as they're working hard enough.
