yes yes zombies aren't real and if they were we'd probably all die or kill ourselves etc, but don't pretend you've never thought about it.

for the purposes of this thread assume they are "Walking Dead" style zombies, and you have maybe 3 or 4 days warning (mysterious illness reported on TV, reports via the internet etc) before your area is zombie central. Assume everyone nearby finds out roughly the same time as you so if you plan to escape by car, many roads etc will be blocked and stores will be packed.

Personally I have a few guns but nothing that'd help against more than a handful of zombies. Since the gunshots would probably draw more they'd have to be a last resort. I live in a semi-rural area with a 6-foot high fence so I'd be safe from a few roamers, but if a swarm came though, I'd be overrun. My plan would be to stay put for as long as possible and keep out of sight. I'd have the truck packed full of fuel, food and a generator so if there is a breakthrough I can high-tail it out of there and head for the bush (where I would probably starve to death or die stupidly).

What's your plan? I'm sure at least one of you has a concrete bunker packed with supplied purely for this occasion.

I'm not really a survivalist type dude, I'd probably die horribly and become a zombie myself.

But at least that way, I'd have joined the winning team. It doesn't seem like zombies starve to death (not sure where they get their energy from), so in effect, I'd probably be around longer than a normal human could expect to be.

Op what are walking dead style zombies. Are they shamblers or are we talking 28 Days Later.

I'd get a rake to push them out of the way when I need to go to the store, and maybe knock the steps of my front porch so I can sit outside and have my morning coffee without needing my rake.

no sprinting like 28 days, no saying "braaaains", think more of a shuffle where a "fresh" zombie could easily break through a window, but as they age, they revert to the weak shambling type whose only strength is numbers.

Oh easy then, shamblers aren't really climbers so just y'know find something that's a pain in the rear end to scale. I always knew doing suspicious poo poo like climbing buildings in my teenage years would pay off when I grew up to be someone actually fit enough to do it properly. I mean, no parkour poo poo, but you don't need to know how to do that to pull yourself up some roofs or weird overhangs that take some basic thinking to navigate.

skeletons suck for sure but its nothing even a low level cleric can't handle. plus you get bonus damage from blunt weapons.

Are you happy now?
Couldn't you get on a roof of a building via s ladder, bring the ladder up, and drop roof tiles on their heads? They are dumb, slow and don't protect their head from large objects falling on them from a hight. Easy to lure (make a loud noise) and they stand at the base of your tower where you let gravity do most of the work.

Well, i'm gassing up or stealing gas depending how late in the day i find out and then i'm driving to the deep country, and staying there. I'm willing to bet it's not gonna be a walking dead scenario so i mostly just need to get out of town while everyone devours themselves and decay. if i can avoid human/zombie contact i predict i can survive with the least amount of ptsd or bloodshed

They are also all hoping to someday be in a scenario where they are in close quarters with lots of other sweaty men so they can have buttsex.
