your grammer sucks

Moving into insulting him over grammar, never seen that before.

I'd find some peashooters. :badjoke:


Honestly, I'd die from terror before being able to do anything.

By the time that an invasion strategy is relevant, I'll already be a naturalized citizen of sealand.

Plan? Get a Semi and a Hog Hauler trailer. Get as much food as possible in teh cabin. Put a cattle guard or snow plow in teh front, And get as many uninfected people as possible in the back wach armed with shotguns. Drive until not possible andlet loose the army of people with guns and leave them behind. (Option one)

[Nitom]

Well, since I live outside a town of about 23,000, I live right next to a L-3 Communications, and I have guns inside my house. I would get the guns, search the town for some survivors and some of my friends. Go back to L-3 and get on a plane. (Maybe air force 1 if its there(again...))

guns in my house:

2 AR-15's
3 semi-automatic AK-47's
1 Glock 21
1 .357 Magnum
15+ .22 hunting rifles
1 12 guage shotgun
1 Kar98K
1 Ariska(with bayonnet)
1 .22 revolver
1 trench gun

(note this is texas and there alot you can do when your a electrical engineering manager at L-3, with 4 retirements(not me, but i live with someone that does))

[Solton]

My plan is as follows: I grab a backpack filled with everything I need, grab all the guns I can from the gun shop in my town, and start traveling. I would collect all the materials I can until I find a suitable house to be my base. I would cover all the windows/doors with bolted metal, fill the basement with gasoline, and attach explosives to the main supports for my plan B. If I become overwhelmed by zombies, I will light the gasoline and head to the roof where I will have a simple bridge connecting to the building next to me. I will cross the bridge and set off the explosives, causing the building to collapse. I will then start traveling again. In my opinion, if zombies did exist everyone would eventually die.
P.S. I have created a wonderful quiz to see how long you will last. Answer the following quetions and I will tell you how long you will survive.
What are your weapons (main + support weapon)? Will you travel? Are you friendly toward other survivors? Where will you have your base? What defenses will it have? What armour (light, heavy, ect.)? What extra supplies will you have (as in normal supplies: food, ammo, ect.)? What extra items will you have (as in army supplies: explosives, night gogles, ect.)? You see a uninfected man walking through town. He seems healthy, but only has a single pistol with one magazine left. He doesn't have any supplies and he seems hungry. What will you do?

Have fun

Put some spikes on the front of a big rig and plow through the crows of zombies while my fellow survivers on the flatbed behind me pick off any survivng zombies

In order to blow up that building, the building you built the bridge to would need to take some damage. Are you sure that that plan is practical?

You've never used a chainsaw before have you?

Seeing as I don't live somewhere where chainsaws are easily accessible and I don't have a relative who's a construction worker/lumberjack, you'd be correct.

Let me educate you.

Working at a slaughterhouse, we use hacksaws to split entire carcasses in half down the length of their spines. This is using an extremely heavy, industrial hacksaw that is about as long as the person using it is tall.

Do you know how long it takes to split a beef with that giant piece of specialized machinery? It's been a while since I've been around it (we've been doing deer lately), but if I remember correctly, it's about 15 to 25 seconds.

Now look at your puny chainsaw. It's got a blade that just two feet long, right? Operated by a tiny little gasoline motor and it uses a chain (not a toothed saw blade) as its cutting piece.

Cutting through an entire (un)living creature with one of those would be insanely difficult. It will be moving. The first couple of seconds splitting a beef is just getting the saw's path started. It doesn't just slide in like magic. You will have to take at least two seconds with a chainsaw to get your starting incision. When things trying to eat your face-skin are moving around, that is difficult. What else is difficult? Fueling your chainsaw. After having spent roughly 10-15 seconds (assuming left-to-right cuts; vertical cuts would take probably 30 seconds), you then have to face your next zombie. Oh wait, he's already eating your brain out of your skull that he's turned into a bowl à la Edward Gein.

A chainsaw is not a revolving butter knife that's been superheated, and zombies are not walking sticks of butter. In the same time it takes you to cut, say, five zombies in half, the person beside you could have emptied a thirty-round magazine from an "assault" rifle, placing a hammered pair in the heads of fifteen zombies; that's two well-aimed shots per zombie face, making that person fly like a Team 6.

I believe it was you who said the virus is neurological and effected the CNS. That being said, we've had to cut into deer skulls with a hacksaw before. You have to rock the blade back and forth, front-to-back to even make the entry cut. A skull is round, and round things are hard to cut into -- especially if they're moving and trying to rape your insides with their teeth. A firearm, however, can (with the proper ammunition) more or less make that same skull explode with minimal effort.

A chainsaw is only a burden thought to be a good idea thanks to Hollywood. Just like the Desert Eagle. I understand a few of you are planning on using Desert Eagles, but I think I'll use something that isn't 4.5lbs and is also possible to get quick follow-up shots with.

Even with that hysterical strength bullshit, you're still gonna get tired swinging those fuckers around.

And they're loud. Really loud. Do you think zombies farther away won't storm to your position immediately.

And they need fuel.

Well fuck, forget my post, this guy said it far better than I could.

Oh yeah, and weapon of choice: Crowbar. Multi-use tools, bashing skulls, opening doors. Until it breaks.

Firearm of choice, .22 hunting rifle, that'll bring down a rotten corpse.

[Simon Cowell of the RR]

What are you smoking where a baseball bat can't hurt your brain, or any other part of you?

You can kill someone with a punch, which is much less than a bat.

i think use genades guns and smoke bombs

Where are you going to get a grenadier?

[Zathganastan]

First I'd grab my rifle and try to organize as many people as I can into a survivor group, Then I'd move them to either a stadium or into the rural areas of my state where the lower populations would mean less zombies and try and clear out a farm or small town to wait the thing out.

Zombies are made of rotting meat. At slaughterhouses, you're cutting freshly dead carcasses. There's a difference between the two, and I think you can guess which is easier to cut through. With a chainsaw, you'd aim for the joints, which are practically falling apart. This would make it much quicker than your suggesting, and without any arms, zombies are almost harmless. cut into their neck enough, and they're paralysed. Bullets wouldn't do that so easily. It wasn't me who said the virus was neurological (etc), btw.

Seriously dude?
What your doing right now is akin to thinking you know how to use a rifle better then an army vet, when you've never even held a rifle before. Are you being deliberately obtuse or are you just that arrogant?

[Spreewerke]

Firearm of choice, .22 hunting rifle, that'll bring down a rotten corpse.

A single-shot .22LR bolt-action rifle would probably be the most reliable firearm you could take with you. Ours from 1970 has been cleaned lightly (just barrel cleaning; no internals) and it's still very accurate and very reliable. No magazines to fiddle with, no internal magazines to get jammed up, just a bullet guide and a bolt to push it into the chamber. Considering I've fired a 10/22 with "man-sized" groups at 250m, I would say a bolt-action .22 would be good to 100m, not because of accuracy, but because the 10/22 can be easily corrected on the next shot since it doesn't require the reload.

The only downside to a bolt-action .22LR is close-quarters with multiple zombehs. A revolver of any caliber would remedy that.

Since zombies don't shoot back, reload speed isn't an issue unless there are dozens and dozens of them (which is why most people go with "assault" weapons, like myself). If you're in a small group, .22LR is probably one of the better choices. Everyone is accurate with a .22 since there's basically no kick, it's very quiet, and ammunition can come in a box of 500 rounds for an extremely low price.

If I were to list the top five rifle types to use, they would definitely be (in no real order of preference):

• AK
• AR-15
• .22LR bolt-action
• .22LR semi-automatic
• Bolt-action hunting rifle (semi-automatics with full-sized rounds tend to be difficult to control, so firing rapidly would mostly be an ammunition dump).

Ironically enough, I would opt for none of those first as mentioned in my massive post a few pages back about my home-fortifications. However, since the Daewoo K2 (and its semi-auto clones) is based off of the AK, M16, and FAL, I'd say it's a pretty good (but somewhat rare to find) choice. Uses AR magazines, too!
