I may sort of have a large mirror in my bedroom on which I have drawn in sharpies a detailed zombie apocalypse planning including safe zones, resource points, family and friends locations, basic skills, multiple plans for looting, barricading and killing zombies with minimal risk..... I had a free weekend...

Since it has clearly been shown that viral zombies don't pose a threat, let's move on. Assume that zombies literally are the undead. Everyone who dies, or who is dead but not fully decomposed, becomes a zombie. What happens then?

I have a training sword that might be useful for bashing in undead skulls.

But I don't think I'd be able to take on more than one at the same time.

I'd probably evade the zombies well enough and the small town i'm in would be fairly easy to avoid/raid for supplies.
Once those run out there's a few farms around I could try and trade with or loot if the locals are zombies/dead.

The bigger issue would be dealing with those not zombified, facing a future where society collapses isn't an enticing one. People would be unstable and if a gang sprung up I'd be either forced to face them or leave town. I live pretty much in the middle of nowhere so it would be a really rubbish existence scavenging from some small farms or towns.

I'd be cut off from the world, it's likely electricity/gas would be a problem. So I'd be forced to go back to wood/coal fires for energy. It can get fairly chilly in the winter here, I would not want to face it without central heating or clean running water.



So if I did survive I'd probably die to a gang/malnutrition/cold. In roughly that order.

Then head to the local pub and hold up with the girlfriend, friends and family till it all blows over.

On topic (cant remember if i posted here or not) i would probably just try and hold up in the house with the family, dont have access to firearms but there are a ton of melee capable items around here, including lots of metal objects.

But what about phil, mate?
What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? Or if during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

All over the world people cope in areas many would describe worse, and more dangerous than any zombie apocalypse.
