Zombie Plans-Revised

[AlperBacon3]

I'd pull my out BR and 4 shot that nub right dair. And den turn on infinate amo.

[Kazel]

Hey, I got 85 Defense and an enchanted Salve Amulet, what am I worried about? :

 

 

 

Honestly, I think I'd hide under my bed and hope they go away. I'm kinda wimpy that way... :oops:

ever seen the start of "28 weeks later"...? thats me ;)

Also, a really good thing we haven't talked about that would be rather effective and VERY easy to make;

How to test the effectiveness of a projectile against a zombie

 

 

 

1. Obtain projectile that is being tested.

 

2. Adjust stance so that both hands are on said item.

 

3. Smash the projectile into your face.

 

4. If your skull is broken and your are dying, your projectile works.

 

5. If not, return to step 2 and repeat.

 

 

 

This only works in the case of potatoes, and you'll be smashing a potato into your face for a while.

Maybe if it was smaller, and shot out metal objects at high speeds... hey now, there's an idea.

Maybe, we could use the trigger mechanism from a gun to ignite a small explosive charge, propelling a metal slug into the head of a zombie.

 

 

 

(Kudos if you can name the comic I got that from.)

Actually, potato guns can easily yank your arm off and has a ridiculous amount of stopping power.

You mean actually tear the arm clean off, or dislocate it?

Reminds me of the stress reduction kit.....anyways...

 

 

 

 

 

I have no worries about running out of ammo, I recently found 2.4k .22 rounds in my closet \ A .22 will work just fine for me. I love that revolver btw.

[ember3579]

Alright, I just recently came up with an interesting zombie scenario that's both plausible and interesting. Here's how it breaks down;

 

 

 

1) Some random research organization (probably either medical or weapons research) develops a way to boost the general faculties of most organic life. This is in virus form, and unknown by the researchers, it can be transmitted effectively without medical equipment (they have all test subjects (animals, convicts, etc) in isolation and introduce the virus through injection).

 

 

 

2) An accident occurs (take your pick, lots of [cabbage] can happen that might do this) and the virus makes it out of the lab. Strangely enough, the normal immune systems of most organic life can suppress even comparatively large quantities of the virus (also unknown by the researchers, because they always flooded the virus into the subjects for maximum effect) in all conditions possible except near and very recent death.

 

 

 

3) The virus spreads to a significant population before it is discovered (difficult to detect while it is suppressed and it is specifically searched for), but it is too late by then. Around this time, people start to turn into zombies when they die (not guaranteed, virus has to be present in decent amounts up to 4 hours after death to take effect). Mortuaries are the first to go, then hospitals.

 

 

 

4) Abnormal zombies show up in notable amounts soon after (this is a virus, they mutate, and because the body is for the most part unchanged in it's capabilities, the virus can mutate the body too), with varying levels of mutation (increased speed, some basic tactical thought (just stuff to help them with their goal of feeding on everything that's alive), increased durability, etc) based on the levels/type of the virus present and when the zombification occurred in relation to the subject's "death" (no major mutations if turned post mortem, most heavy mutations will be the subjects). In order to facilitate the transformations and some regeneration, the zombies' digestive system is modified to make use of everything eaten. Lungs in most zombies are rendered almost useless, due to no need of oxygen. Most zombies have absolutely no sense of community, but will blindly follow orders from zombies with higher capacities for thought (somewhat similar to a colony of ants).

 

 

 

If you want anything more, then ask.

[Seraphi]

Not plausable.

 

Zombification WILL NOT mutate the human form.

 

Read the guide. The human body is essentially a tool to the virus.

 

They will use it until it breaks, but they will not alter it.

 

 

 

Zombies do not digest anything, either, the virus simply rewires the brain and gives it the command to devour living things.

 

And they can't regenerate, they will walk and attack until they turn to dust.

That's if you're talking about normal zombies, and not infected. Infected could have a virus that would mutate them, but it would be highly unlikely.

What he said.

 

 

 

OFF-TOPIC: No new posts in a day? What are your plans?

[mmmcannibalism]

well lets have a new weapon of the day

 

 

 

hatchet

 

 

 

an interesting choice for a close range weapon, capable of dealing fatal blows and not hard to wield. Also, many practical applications and a light weapon that could be used in close quarters.

[Kiriyama]

The problem, as with all melee weaponry, it putting enough force behind it, and even then, removing it.

 

 

 

It should be used primarily as a tool, only as a weapon as a last resort.

[baalboy5]

Wanna do weapons, then do throwing knives. \

 

 

 

Yes, I know, fail choice :|

What about a barbed wire-topped perimeter? Even if the wire won't kill the zombies, it may still render them immobile either permanently or even just temporarily, giving you time to crush their heads beneath the weight of your frying pan. Or it'll rip a limb or two off as they come and make them less of a threat.

I dont think barbwired is going to do that much damage; I mean its going to rip a human up pretty bad but I dont see it doing "structural" damage. Also, if its a large group of zombies the barbwire is going to be torn down after the first through zombies collpase through it.

Barbed wire won't do anything but scrape the zombies up an make a mess, absolutely pointless if you ask me, might be enough to tangle a few up, but not efficient enough to consider using, unless you want to stop looters. It could work decently if you were to lie some down in front of a pit or something, tangling them up for when they'd fall inside.

 

If you want to put something on top of the perimeter make it [bleep]ey top things, not barbed wire, have something the zombies would get impaled on.

Razor wire could be used instead?

 

That would shred muscles pretty easily, making the zombies much less dangerous.

 

Also, I think I have found a place which can make me a few trench [bleep]es.

 

 

 

EDIT: Outward pointing [bleep]es would also be very effective.

Post me a trench [bleep]e mate, I could do with a decent zombie killing weapon.

 

 

 

As for the razor wire idea I think it may work, the shredding of the zombies muscles would make things much easier if we were ever grabbed by one. Not just for that, they would have more work breaking down our defences too. In my opinion razor wire is worth using.

[mmmcannibalism]

That was my main concern with any fence toppers we use, if they arent going to do deep damage or stick up the zombies in the case of [bleep]es they arent useful; of course if we had some razor wire on hand no reason not to use it.

[Seraphi]

The place that I found refused to make any weaponry...

 

Fail.

 

Damn these stupid people! How in the world are they going to survive in a zombie apocalypse!
