[quote:Anonymous Coward 16325352:MV8yMDA1NjYyXzMzNjk5OTkzXzdEOTYxNzk2] I'm liking this discussion, would be very relevant, even if you do still have ammo. The point about cotton versus wool is very good. I remember I went on a hiking trip and I was wearing the usual cotton socks and shirt. Both were soaked and the socks lead to my feet being blistered. It was a good thing the trip was for only one day. If it were a survival situation I would have been in trouble. I have some wool socks now... problem solved. Bring on the woods with these bad boys. Don't have the wool shirt yet but take my word for it, you will want them. No point in having a great weapon if you get in the woods and within a couple of days you're so out of sorts that you can't use it in a combat situation. Speaking of which, one great asset would be to get a horse. You can travel almost anywhere, won't run out of gas, can carry a lot of gear for you, and can outrun the zombies with ease. That being said, of course I would want a good bow and arrow. I have a compound bow with a nice assortment of arrows so I'm good there. In regards to melee, I'm undecided. The efficient part of me says get a machete, I want something that I can cut through the woods with as well as fight. But to be honest, if I get into it with zombies I would want an old broadsword/longsword. The katana is a great sword but its key features only becomes relevant when you are well trained. The broadsword has a better learning curve for an idiot like me and fits my style a bit more. But being that I don't have one, i'll just have to run with my machete and hatchet. At least I can make a good spear with them while in the woods. [/quote]
Original Message
The zombie apocalypse is upon us.
Guns are useless as there is no ammunition/shells to be found. What weapons do you choose? How do you fortify your property?
Zombie rules are the same as The Walking Dead. Damaging the brain kills them. They move at a moderate pace (no running). They can't climb or open doors.
Well?
