Zombie Apocalypse: Plan and Survive.

[frankiej]

So, with the inevitable zombie hordes on their way, whether it be from a mad accelerated form of rabies or WiFi signals frying our brains, we must be prepared... Any scout would know this... not that I was ever a scout, but oh well.

What do you think you would need to survive? Is it a good team? A good chocolate bar? Max Brook's Zombie Survival Guide? Or a typical topless scene in a horror movie?

It is coming people! You must plan, or you won't survive!

I have my machete, I know certain wild plants you can eat (even ones you can wash with) and good zombie knowledge. I even belong to a consulting agency for all your apocalypse questions. We're ZomCon, Inc.

I am quite wise in what will penetrate a skull... I spent some time in a friends lab carrying out experiments on some fake skulls for fun.

and the fact that I have seen almost every zombie film ever made means I know what not to do... Because, they always make mistakes.

Although, if anyone can suggest a zombie film I haven't seen then I will gladly father their child for them, as I am finding it difficult to find ones I haven't seen.

I love films that involve whole populations turning into zombies. Kinda like modern teenagers after a long night of drinking.

Say I knew that the world was due to go fucked by zombie mania, I'd pack as many supplies, weapons as humanly possible and find myself a castle that's in great condition. Many can be found round here. Bring up the draw bridge, shut the gate and sit back on top of one of the castle towers and watch the fun. Also have a sniper rifle at the ready.

[frankiej]

You see, that sounds all fine and dandy... But, in here Scotland a sniper would not be readily available... In fact, it would be difficult to get any kind of gun easily... so, i have to rely on melee weapons.

[Ace Otana]

I've got a few of those. The problem with melee weapons is that you will wear out far more quickly. Especially when there are so many of them. Cross bows aren't hard to find. Got a shop not far from here that's loaded with them.

[frankiej]

In Dundee there isn't anything like that, no weapon shops... The only hunting one only has knives and stuff. I would be trying to avoid combat as much as possible... But i suppose it depends what zombies arrive... Fast or slow... I would imagine it would be slow Romero zombies.

Grab what you can I guess. Also knowing where to go is also important. Like in the film "Dawn of the Dead". They ran into a huge shopping centre. Not bad, seeing as it's well supplied with food. Strong door's, easy access to the roof.

Best places would be a castle, a large yacht that's well supplied, maybe some kind of fort or fortress.

[frankiej]

Yes, but in dawn they did have a helicopter... so that made finding places and options a bit better.

There is a castle near where I live, It is reasonable secluded aswell.

Helicopter? In Dawn of the dead?
You have watched that one?

Preferred choice would be castle or yacht.

Perfect.
