What is your style of dealing with the threat of the undead in the short-term?
- Blow 'em to bits: Utilize explosives or the environment to decimate large groups to thin their numbers and spread them out.
Quote:All of theseWhat is your long-term solution for dealing with the undead?
- Group survival: Maximize number of survivors in group; every person saved is another source of productivity.
- Dig in and defend: Alone or with others, I make my stand here, until the day I/we die, or the day THEY all die.
- Keep moving: Never stay in one place, never stay static; keep movin' and scavenging. Live as long as I can.
- Exploitation: It's a man-eat-man world out there, and if that means taking what I want from others, by force or by subtlety, then so be it.
- Kill them all: Rifles, pistols, explosives, knives, improvised weapons; whatever it takes, I'll take as many of the undead down as I can before my life ends.
Quote:You need a descent amount to make a stand and to keep visatileWhat is your typical carry capacity?
- Moderate: In it for the longer haul, I carry several weapons and/or a fairly respectable quantity of ammunition, tools, and/or general equipment.
Quote:No amount of zombies is ever going to stop a Bloody tank.What is your typical mode of transportation or movement?
- Super-heavy vehicles: Military vehicles, from APCs to tanks, if I can commandeer it, I'll juggernaut the fuck out of anything in my way, at the cost of huge fuel resources and speed and maneuverability, though with the benefit of obstacles and terrain meaning little.
Quote:All of the above. I would get it by any means.How do you obtain your supplies?
- Scavenging: The PoApoc world is littered with essentials, and I know just where to find them.
- Jury-rigging/scrapping: One man's junk is another man's means of getting by.
- Raiding: Either alone or with others, it's a cruel world, and cruelty is what's needed to survive. Kill or be killed, so kill those too weak or stupid for what they've got.
- No idea: I'm out of my depths, and completely overwhelmed and terrified and not thinking clearly; I don't know what to do.

What resources are you most concerned with?
- Food and water: Can't live without them.
- Medical supplies: When the situation becomes much more complicated for surviving, I want to be ready for the maladies and injuries that will inevitably happen.
- Munitions: Guns guns guns, bullets bangs and booms: The best way to survive is to project as much lethal force as you can.
- Fuel: Gotta stay mobile over long ranges, and the world's enormous reserves of energy supplies are no longer being used; what is left over from the apocalypse is what I need.
- Tools and equipment: Fix it, break it, open it, lock it, trip it, bypass it, manipulate it, build it.
All of these as you would need them to be able to survive.
