Whats your zombie survival plan?

[Captain Marvelous 544]

Simple, my plan is too at least take out two zombies... that way, if I get turned... I at least lowered the numbers for others

 

 

also, other part of my plan is too avoid the chinese zombies, those mother *BLEEP!* are kungfu masters... or at least, avoid Bruce Lee zombie

My house is very good for a zombie siege. It's 3 stories, the outside walls are concrete and brick, and its on a mountain.

 

We have food storage in the basement, which could be fairly easily moved to the upper floors. there are plenty of upper floor windows to shoot out of. We have ladders and stuff we can use to get down once we've destroyed the staircases.

 

As for weapons, my dad has plenty of guns, and I have a few machetes. We have plenty of knives around the house.

 

One of my friends knows a guy with an armored van, which could be used on supply runs.

Random thoughts:

 

When I lived in Arizona and Colorado there were some great places up in the mountains to hole up. My retreat made via secondary roads was even planned out. Now I'm in Iowa. Farm country. BUT. I'm surrounded by big cities that the dead will eventually leave.The cities of chicago, minneapolis, kansas city and omaha.

 

and I know that the freeways will be clogged and impassible. I will never make it to the mountains. and walking is right out.

 

No. I will have to make a stand right here.

 

I have a number of choices.

 

1) a Riverboat casino: access by drawbridge only. Good. its not a likely refuge for people. Bad, its on the border with Illinois.

Good, there are lifeboats so even without electricity we can float down the Mississpi and escape a horde.

Bad. The Mississipi is a densly populated river with LOTS of big cities...

 

2) A recreated Western style wood fort. Good: walls 12-20 feet tall, lots of room inside. Bad: others will think of this too.

Good: easy to repair. Bad, fire. Fire Bad,

 

3) Multi story apartment building with the stairs dynamited out. Good: secure, out of zombie reach. Bad, no fireplace for winter.

Electricity will not last, so that means makeshift fireplaces/see above. Fire bad.

 

4) The best bet for my survivors will be to wall off a few farm houses or a section off a small town. Homes with built in fireplaces will be preferable. stock up and fortify as best we can. We just may not have the time.

 

I'm thinking for surviving the initial madness the best bet will be the Riverboat. Its the only place with a getaway plan built in.

 

If I can travel at all, I will head south towards a warmer clime. The fewer fires I need to build the better. A number of rivers head south, so that is my most likely route inspite of the fact that EVERYONE lives near water. I will either steal a boat or make a raft.

 

Sucks for me but thats the choices I face.

 

In Arizona, I knew of some secret indian ruins with an artesian well. Irrigation canals already dug. Site is a bit rough to get to but a few truckloads and we would be all set.

 

Colorado is covered with small towns accessable only by a single road across a bridge. Perfect place to rebuild civilization.

 

But out here in the great plains there are NO rugged innacessable places.

Why in the world are you bringing up that atrocity so randomly?

 

Mentioning a show about zombies in a thread about zombies is random? We get it. You didn't like it. That doesn't mean that nopony else is allowed to mention it! Frankly, I liked it! The "Bouncy" factor was a bit much, but the story was cool! I loved how they experimented and learned that the zombies were blind, and depended on hearing to locate prey.

 

... You don't like it because it is sexist, don't you?

 

I loved the show, although they played the breasts out a little too much.

 

The final OVA episode was stupidly funny! (a bit dirty, too!)

I was sad when I found out they never finished it.

 

I was watching it on netflix, and when I tried to go to the new episode,I just stared at my screen.

[Pinkazoid 3,493]

My plan is easy, put a playlist of MLP FIM hide in my closet and watch as much pony as I can before the zombies get my brains

[DJ MUFF1N D3RP 323]

If it came down to it, I would find the nearest place with a stockpile of weapons and find a good katana or blunt object and head for the most remote spot I could find, picking up my good friends along the way. When we get there, we would make a heavily protected camp and try to last out the zombie apocalypse. I would use the rules of zombie survival from Zombieland and everything the Walking Dead has thought me about zombie survival.

Do you mean Netflix never finished it? Season one was finished, and it looks like there is going to be a season two.

I'm getting a dog called Brunte and a pink monster truck. That's all I need.

'Nuff said.

[Celestial Sloth 369]

I have, at least a short-term, plan for the upcoming doom of us all. Living in a relatively suburban area, most of the houses on my road are semi-detached, which allows jumping into the neighbours back garden incredibly easy.

 

So, I barricade up all the entrances apart from my back garden, use my pool cue as a temporary weapon and raid my neighbour's houses through their back gardens for supplies. Right next door to me is an elderly man with a shed full of power tools, he won't need those.

 

So, possibly armed with a chainsaw and a lifetime supply of peanuts, I...

 

Sit and think of a long-term plan.

And play video games. Gotta keep the morale up.

 

If anything, hopefully this post makes you think about what you would be capable of realistically. If the pool cue fails, I do have a spork I stole from KFC.

Well, i would first pawn some of my things (Like a TV) since it still has value. Buy some weps, food, etc. and head home and barricade it UP!! Then i would surround the house with treadmills (No one would be at walmart so i took them :3) as a defence. I would also keep a radio to hear what was happening to the outside world and a electric generator to keep the fridge and radio running. Then, i would simple wait it out.

My god sir! A spork! The weapon that only few men know how to weid into a lethal utencil!

 

I would Raid my neighbors houses for food/supplies, take their keys, drive their car to a hardware store, get a bunch of planks/tools, drive to the house on the highest mountain round these parts and barricade it. I shall then live on a supply of ramen noodles and rice for the rest of the apocolypse! God knows what that'l do to my digestive system...

Aye, but would you be able to get the tread mills running outside the house? Unless their battery operated of course. But is there even such a thing?

[Dusty Soul 2,612]

I would probably be in school when this happens so I'd go downstairs into the classrooms. (There's no windows down there) and wait until I need food. I'd then grab a ruler and the projector and run out and start whacking zombies with my weapon...

[Retro*Derpy 3,197]

Yes there are tread mills that run on batterys, but i live on a steep hill, so as soon as you stepped on the track it would roll back, making you fall back to the bottom. I think its a good zombie defense plan

[Writer 41]

1) Contact and warn my friends and family, telling them my plan.

2) Pile into Jason's truck and raid the local Shoot Extreme or Target World.

3) With our new guns (Or some kind of weapon) we either shove off to Walgreens or Big Lots. Medicine and food is important.

4) Live it out in our newly barricaded building.

 

Seems good enough to me, though living in a drug store does make me think of the Walking Dead...

Wow...that is pretty good... Simple, but effective. Plus you could get a good work out from those too lol. You could also set up MGs by all of your windows or something like that. Put up chicken wire turn it into a mini fort

[Evilshy 5,090]

I live in a house with concrete walls covered in brick, up in a mountain. We also have emergency food storage, enough to last a few months. My dad has plenty of guns and ammo. So we take a few trips down to grab whatever extra food and supplies we can, then head back up he mountain and wait it out

I'd take milk cartons, fill them with gasoline and some cloth, and use them as molotov cocktail things. And if you're going to be using a ruler, make sure it's one of those meter sticks, and not a mere 12 inch! Also, Don't forget to write down puns! So you can say "Well zombies, look's like you just got, schooled!"

[silvadel 1,393]

 

I always think the above when I think of zombies.

 

As for my plan?

 

I would try to get across the street to the farm over there. He has plenty of guns food and a natural spring and we are on a good enough basis that he probably wouldnt shoot us.

[~The Snowy Wolf~ 1,579]

Aw shit! I've been preparing for this for a while now, not that I take the whole 2012 thing seriously. But it's come to my attention that it doesn't take the end of the world for the population to descend into anarchy. I've already got an M48 hawk axe, a standard issue gas mask, a fire steel, combat boots, etc.

 

Now on to my Z-day plan. Me and a few of my friends (one of which is an air force pilot. I'll get to that in a second) are going down the levees until we get to the Belle Chase NAS (Naval Air Station, for those of you who are uninformed). Our pilot friend can get clearance (or if it's progressed enough, just steal) a C-130 and we're going to fly to Alaska. Why Alaska? Because it's cold (which generally makes it harder for viruses to spread) and less inhabited.

 

Just a personal tip, bring some sort of music (I'm gonna be listening to Three Days Grace, so if you hear it, call for Vinyl Blade... And don't sound like a zombie or you're gettin' a bullet through your skull)

Let's see, I would get a weapon and some allies, then hide in some building and shoot them all down one by one. This should help me survive for a decent amount of time.

 

Escape to Equestria.

[Marceline 187]

Always keep a melee weapon on hand, in case of emergencies. Acquire guns if possible. Try to get to a safer area. If a loved one is bitten, say my goodbyes. . .

and aim for the head.

[null123456 759]

Hop in a Warthog and drive to Alaska!

But here's my list..

- Get Allies

- Get Food

- Get Bad Ass Fighting Music

- Get weapons

- Make Dead Rising 2 Styled Weapons

- Chew Some bubblegum.

- Dress Up like Bane from The Dark Knight Rises

- Go insane and eat my allies alive

- Have flashbacks of my life

- Cry

- Load a Desert Eagle

- Slowly pull the trigger..

- Die

- Meet my friends in the afterlife.

1 shot gun, 1 simi-auto hunting rifle with a hunting scope, 1 .45 handgun, one ax, one crow bar, winter and summer clothes, basic survival gear such as snares and fishing gear and flint and steel, 1 sling shot(if i can get a hold of one from a store while leaving town), head for the Rocky Mountains (i live in Colorado) and never stay in the same area for more then a week. if the lower sections of the mountains become overly infested move the peaks where the the cold stops the bodies of the zombies. desperate act move to alaska where they are unable to move.

Well, after reading the zombie survival A-Z guide I made a few alterations to my zombie survival plans. I live in the UK so weapons of any substantial effectiveness would be hard to come by, luckily my family stores enough food that me and my " few friends " that you said will be with me should be fine for anywhere up to 2-3 weeks. Which means my plan would be to fortify the downstairs of my house, covering windows and doors then staying in the house until the initial outbreak has subsided, I would think that the mass panic ( classic scenes of people running arround screaming, crash crashing, that sorta stuff) would have ended after a week, therefor that is when I would venture out, I ride a motorbike so wearing my full bike gear would protect me a bit if I encountered a zombie (if Kevlar can stop a knife, i would like to see a zombie chew through it) I wouldnt wear the helmet though, as it would impair my hearing and reduce visibility.

 

I lice on the edge of a city so there are bound to be quite a few zombies arround, leaving my friends to hold down the fort I would venture out in the previousy mentioned bike gear and armed with a baseball bat would head towards the nearest stores, there is a small gathering of shops nearby and while the two supermarkets will likely have better chances of getting food and water, they will also most likely have more zombies in, I would go to the smaller corner store as there would be nowhere for zombies to hide in there, so I would see them as I enter and be prepared to engage them. Assuming the trip is a success I would travel back with supplies and keep reporting the trip until our stocks are replenished enough to last us at least a few months.

 

Now I know that I can't stay in my house forever so after exploring other nearby houses for crude weapons my friends and I would set off towards the local airbase, it is a few miles but it is walkable distance and the roads are unlikely to have many zombies on them, at the airbase we would scavenge for any military weapons that may be left behind when it became overun, prioritising blades over guns of course, any guns we find we would attept to find silencers for them too, else makeshift ones will have to do, we would also take this opportunity to swap our normal backpacks for military ones, as they hold more junk. The best place to hold out is high up, so after packing as much into our new packs as possible, we would head home, pack up the food and water and set off into the city to head to an apartment block that I've had selected for zombie survival for quite some time.

 

After acquiring our new apartment it should be easier to venture out for water and food, especially as we could just enter other apartments to take their left food and drinks. The best goal would be to try and find other survivors too, there is a castle in my city, so the long term goal would be to correctly fortify it then move into the old prison/court that stands on it's grounds, making sure we fully inspect any survivors that find us for bites and if we find any bite or suspicious cuts they will be isolated into a cell and monitored to see if they turn, if after a month they are still fine then they will be entered into the group.

 

 

Kinda a long story, I have a tendency to waffle on a bit
