Your zombie invasion survival strategy

[Zathganastan]

Yes but if your in a group there's a chance at least a few of you will make it compared to all of you eventually being wore down and over run.

I'm afraid it wouldn't be that easy. I believe it'd be safer to be hunkered down in a place you're familiar with rather than try to escape into the unknown.

Not when you up against a force that will eventually kill you no matter how hard you try to hold out.

If I'm up against a force that will eventually kill me then why bother attempting to run? Seems like a waste of energy to me.

[The Kiaser Colonies]

Barricade me and a friend in pub. Kill a couple of zombies, drink myself to death, get friend to bury me before he realises he will be on his own. Sucker

[Kings Island]

My people are rich and intelligent. We would simply devize a anti-viral agent and reprogram are deutronium missiles to spread the anti-virus before we get really unlucky and a zombie washes up on our island. Then we feed the old and the poor to the zombies while everyone else flees the island to the australian outback (we're very close to australia)

So intelligent your people are that you've mistaken General for an in-character forum.....

Because you and the others could survive by tiring to leave, while death is assured by tiring to stay.

Zombies aren't impossible to finish off. Even with hordes of millions, if you had a well-defended fortress, and had enough supplies, you will hold out until supplies or zombies runs out. Assuming, of course, you have people who can shoot.

Dude that's been proven false multiple times threw out history, if you heavily out numbered and the enemy has high enough moral, your eventually be over run.And when it comes to zombies the're usually more of them then people have bullets so tiring to hold a fort against a zombie horde is a lost cause.

I remember this problem. It gets fun when you start adding jealous wives and police with prisoners and shit like that.

In regular warfare, sieges don't usually prove to successful for defenders. But when it comes to zombie invasions, as long as you are supplied, and the zombies can't get to you(for example, you fortify a mountain peak with extremely steep sides, or a castle), then you stand a very good chance of winning. In the Battle of Khe Sanh, Marines held out with regular airdrops, and they were using ammo as fast as it came. You wouldn't really need to use ammo if you had a castle, just wait for a few years and they zombies rot. And if you have the ammo, blast away.

True, find enough men and a strong castle wall and you should be able to hold out.But I was directing this mainly to the people who think that that they can hold back the zombie hordes attacking their houses with a few rifles and some blockades.

You gather the men, we'll eat the women. Barhah!

"Ok here hold this first." *Hands him a bag of gernades with the pin's pulled out*

No no no, you're doing it all wrong. See, if zombies are merely rabid humans, they won't be intelligent enough to open food cans, and they'll starve to death quickly. Being rabid won't improve their hunting, and they won't be able to survive longer than a month. The most common food would be other zombies, so they'd starve, die of heat stroke, deteriorate, or eat eachother within a month. So the best plan is to hide in your basement with a large stash of food, a radio, large stash of water (when I say large, I mean really big), a shotgun, and probably some other important stuff. Blockade the basement with a large amount of your furniture, then board it up. Humans are terrible at finding things by scent, so the zombies couldn't see you or smell you, and I highly doubt they'd retain their intelligence once they became zombies. So that way, you have the highest chance of surviving until the problem is gone.

And then there's the theory that they aren't rabid humans. They've become carriers of a virus that heightens most of their senses after they've died.

Then what?

Uh, commit suicide? Run away? I have no friggin idea.

[Lucantis]

That only counts for things that are alive.

Zombies are not.

Lawyered.

Undead = Not Dead = Alive

Zombies are not necessarily alive either. I checked everything. And you know what? Nothing says that you can kill a Zombie with fire. They all say aim for the head, we can agree with that. However, nothing says fire. Maybe liquid nitrogen, turning household items into weapons, guns, and knives but not fire.

Even if a zombie is a living corpse that defies all natural laws, it can do absolutely nothing if it's a pile of ash on the ground. Even if it's somehow still alive, it possesses no arms or legs for propulsion, no teeth to bite you, and no bodily fluids to somehow infect you.

How do you want your zombie? Crispy or charred?

That would still take hours of being on fire before it dies, which leaves more then enough time to go rip the person who set them on fire in half.
