Zombie Apocalypse Contingency Plans

Post by Dog Pants »

I'm bored, and my mind naturally wanders to zombies. What would you do if zombie outbreaks were declared? What's your survival plan?

well, my house would be a bad stronghold, there are lots of large windows wich zombies could easily break through, so i'd pack some guns and food (and my dog, dogs would probably make the best zombie sentinels) and make my way to one of our hilltop castles in the south, most have modern comforts installed and being on a hill would make it a great stronghold. And as a plus, they're in the coldest region of the country, wich would mean that since a zombie apocalypse equals cold winters, thus equals frozen zombies. I also believe some castles have the space for a greenhouse or even a small vegetable garden to be built.

I'd just grab my Zombie Holocaust bag and head for the hills.

Unfortunately this country's fucking retarded gun laws would be mildly problematic, but I figure I can get by.

Guns aren't great for zombies anyway, they just attract more. They would, however, be good against other humans.

true, but lucky for me my dad has a .22 rifle with scope and silencer, wich means i can take tons of ammo and dispatch of my undead foes quietly. i'll also take the .357, just for kicks.

Actually, I'd probably head for Aldershot initially, break into one of the armouries there and grab a few choice weapons. Probably be able to grap a Warrior on the way which could be useful for smashing doors down, if nothing else. Ammo might be a problem though, so next stop would be Oxford for a visit to the old RAF Benson airfield, which is where all the Army stores are kept. Lots of 24Hr ration packs, arctic warfare gear and a gas mask. I'd probably pay a visit to my old unit in Wiltshire and grab a tank just for shits and giggles, though it'd be a pain to keep going for more than a day or two.

and killing larger food animals quickly and easily.

I'm not sure how the undead horde feel about non human blood/brain, so there could be risks there.

Varies with the stories, but generally they're either not interested in animals or can't catch them.

well then, i'll fuck off to the arse end of no-where, rob a gun or 3 on the way and hunt me some dinnins.

edit for proper plan:

I'd fuck off to bradgate park, there's a fuckoff thing on a hill there, should be quite defendable, decent view to everywhere, clean streams and arseloads of deer, also a big reservoir nearby, possibly somewhere to live/hide there too.

Yeah I've already got my gun, so all I need is a few hundred rounds, and a supply of food & water. There's lots of cattle in the area here, so I should be able to eat fairly well, drinking water would be a different problem I think.

Well I'm pretty much sorted :) what with working in an armoury and all.

Get some foods, water, porn and relax locked up nice and safe in my extremely secure building surrounded my automatic weapons.

Lovely, oh and you cunts can come too if you make it far enough. Or I could tool the Land Rover up and make my way down to you guys.

I'd nip over to a Kineton as it's a current ammunition depot for the UK (and one of the larger ones) to see what I can lay my hands on, even in a zombie holocaust, hard cash goes a long way.

Not to mention it's a giant bunker complex that spans quite a bit of warwickshire, so, I suspect could be used as a shelter.

Failing that, off to a rural area, such as Scotland, the Pennines, or over to Wales.

In the interests of being stealthy when stalking around, some bladed weaponry would be nice, but I could cope with a shovel or an axe (both in the garage), and I'd go find some facial covering like a gas mask asap or at least bodge something up.

The usual survival gear such as tinned food (mm, beans), gas stove (with refills), some water (along with bottles, after all, you can boil it to purifiy it), and camping equipment.

If it all goes to pot, and there's zombies on my door step, out the back of the house and up to the woods. At least up a tree you'll be safe for some time, enough to figure out what to do or wait for sunrise.

Bugger off to Warwick castle and put the defences up.

Plenty of blunt, blade and bow weaponry in their halls, nice bedrooms, gift shop, canteen, lots of fruit conserve and long-life food, and a few well-trained bowmen to help defend the keep.

Even got some chain mail and plate armour!

Good point Grimmie, not to mention Warwick Castle generates it own 'leccy.
See you there then!
