Zombie survival

[Walsingham]

No, I mean the corpses will contribute fuurther to contamination of groundwater, not to mention the flies and vermin that will spring up.

[Walsingham]

In case you thought a zombie apocalypse might be devoid of

[Hurlshort]

Oh, I almost forgot about the weird dream I had. There was a zombie attack at a mall. I had to bring unaffected people to this shiny roulette wheel in order to end the infection. I had to bring 5 people there, but I could only successfully bring one person at a time. I made it with the last person just in time. I remember rescuing a former student and a homeless girl.

 

I think I play too many video games. The fact that I had to bring one person at a time made it feel like a collection quest.

[Moatilliatta]

 

I had some kind of silly romance dream once that led to me hunting zombies in a very arcade game-like area, like a maze.

I suspect it will start in India

[Hurlshort]

I suspect it will start in India

 

Those subtitles were obnoxious and that girl is gorgeous.

[Walsingham]

Has anyone else played the zombie bits in Stalker? Best computer zombies ever.

[Walsingham]

Update to my readiness level. I have just ordered enough dried goods and tinned meat to last 1 month. Now I need some sort of water treatment.

[Rosbjerg]

I know I guy who has designed a straw that can clean polluted water and filter out bacterias.

 

I'll ask him if he can make some like this.

 

 

Pretty handy for those post-zombie scenarios.

[Walsingham]

Are you kidding? I almost shot that man, and I know he's not a zombie.

[Deadly_Nightshade]

I started up the forge the other day and began practicing forging melee weapons, it's harder than I remembered although I'll have to post pictures if the project comes out in reasonable shape.

[Shryke]

and in the days and weeks following Z-day, the last remaining vestiges of humanity try to make their way in the new forsaken world

 

every so often they hear rumours of a man doing what he can to help the survivors

 

a man who has lost all he held dear

 

a man who realises that in order to survive, we need to fight

 

and thus he toils away, forging weapons for those who come to see him

 

known only as the Dancing Man he works, dawn till dusk for the hopes of humanity

[Walsingham]

Great. Now I have an image of a smith doing merengue.

[Shryke]

zombie ballet anyone?

[Walsingham]

Are you dancing?

[Shryke]

not right now (i'm at work)

Walsingham, being an advanced weapons specialist and trained commando, what do you think about phosphorous? I was thinking something like 28 days later with the high rise. The zombies come in and then you throw down a few phosphorous grenades into the crowded stairwell and its just all out malarkey.

 

Pros:

 

area effect

Doesn't burn down the building

 

Cons:

Having access to the substance

Knowing how to make it

are zombies affected by chemical burns and severe pain?

[Aram]

If the zombies attack I'm going right to Obsidian to barricade the place and defend it while they continue their efforts completing an RPG that will cure the zombie pandemic. I might also do that if I only perceive a zombie pandemic, which has happened several times before, so heads up Obsidian.

[Walsingham]

I didn't have any sleep last night so maybe I've missed something.

 

1. You are at the top of the building.

2. The zombies are in the stairwell

3. You drop flames onto them.

4. Heat rises, the building catches fire and you cook yourself.

 

Having said this I'm definitely in favour of using simple means to reduce the effectiveness of zombies en masse. I'd actually suggest something a lot less flammable like hairspray. the zombies eyes and ears might burn, and this would make them far less dangerous.

[theslug]

Phosphorous explodes in flames? I thought it was like all chemically and no real fire.

[Deadly_Nightshade]

I'd actually suggest something a lot less flammable like hairspray.

 

Isn't that highly combustible?

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

I have plasmids.

 

Will that help?

[Walsingham]

I'd actually suggest something a lot less flammable like hairspray.

 

Isn't that highly combustible?

 

Yes, but burns with less heat than phosphorus, I assure you.

 

And phos burns with flames, be sure of it. Nasty bloody stuff, anyway.

[Moatilliatta]

How would you even use hairspray? Using it as a makeshift flamethrower like in the movies and games would be incredibly dangerous and if you spray it on the zombie before igniting you need to ignite it before it dries on a living (sorta ) zombie.

 

Sounds difficult to use if you ask me.

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Use Axe. Works much better.

 

 

 

 

... not the deodorant mind you. A good old wooden axe.
