Zombie Plans-Revised

[PlzPuddngPlz]

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!

 

 

 

Change their corporate policy?

 

 

 

I'd take a 10-foot/3 meter solid concrete fence over a barbed wire fence any day of the week except friday.

I'd take a 10-foot/3 meter solid concrete fence over a barbed wire fence any day of the week except friday.

 

15 foot wall with razor wire lining the top.

 

And a slide across metal sheet entrance.

[Wisp]

Barbed wire is more effective than one might think, if used in large coils. If we had a large amount of it for some reason, I would saw we should use it as a basic perimeter until a better wall could be made. If we had guards on duty, we'd be fine, since it would take Z's a while to get through it.

But here's the thing, is razor wire better than barbed wire?

 

 

 

First off:

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_entanglement

 

 

 

Razor wire -

 

 

 

 

Barbed wire -

 

 

 

 

You can get razor wire in three varietys, though we should only think about the long barbed version, as it has roughly 6 cm barbs.

[EdgedThesis]

Well barbed wire certainly looks cooler.

 

 

 

That doesn't help, I just wanted to say that.

On a totally random note, I found the ultimate zombie overkill weapon.

 

 

 

RAILGUN.

 

 

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railgun

 

 

 

A gun that fires a metal projectile using electromagnets with extreme electricity usage.

 

So far, they've pumped about 10 MegaJoules (Enough to power an average household for a year) and propelled the projectile at Mach 7, fast enough to ignite the air around it and [bleep] up whatever it hits in ways science barely understands.

 

They plan to charge 64 MegaJoules into the damn thing.

 

 

 

 

 

"On January 31, 2008 the US Navy tested a railgun; it fired a shell at 2520 m/s with an energy of 10.64 MJ.[15] Its expected performance is over 5.8 km/s muzzle velocity, accurate enough to hit a 5 meter target from 200 nautical miles (370 km) away while shooting at 10 shots per minute. It is expected to be ready in 2020 to 2025."

 

 

 

So basically, blow a zombie thats like 50 miles away into bits with a small metal ball, as well as annihilating a large area of the target zone.

Too much power consumption, plus we will need training just to learn how to fire the thing and to aim correctly. I do believe at long distances the projectile has a 1+ minute flight time, so we will need to factor in everything. It's just ineffective with a limited power supply (especially if we have to generate our own electricity. Otherwise I would have posted it ages ago when my friend was talking about the one he was building.

Oh I know its not practical.

 

I just think its pretty awsome, is all.

 

If we ever want to overkill something really badly, we use this.

 

At all other times, we stay well away.

Can zombies swim? I live near a large lake that has an island in the center of it, about a 20 minute kayak ride. The lake is deep, about 50 feet.

 

 

 

Anyway for years me and the neighbors have been kayaking out to this island twice a week. Its about 50 yards by 50 yards. Its 2/3 wooded and the rest is rocks and wild grass. Its an awesome island really, we have spent many a summer day camping out there and catching and cooking fish. We have numerous supplies stored out there included hundreds of waterproof matches and a some Zippos, fishing poles and lures, gallons of water, and other misc tools like hatchets and nails and hammers. There is also a full set of pots and pans.

 

 

 

So... can zombies swim? Its about a mile offshore so I don't think they could smell us or anything, though if we had a fire going they would see it :| I remember last year I woke up at 3am at home and went to get a drink of water, I saw a distant light out on the lake coming from the island. Feeling curious and now fully awake I tossed on a robe and walked outside, then down to our dock and hopped in my kayak. A 15-20 minute kayak paddle later I approach the island and see one of my friends sitting on a rock near the fire just staring into it, he seems me coming and says "I couldn't sleep..." I pull up onto the makeshift dock and walk over and join him, we watch the fire in silence--a mile away from home at 3am in robes and PJs. That island really is a 2nd home for me, and I would flee there in an instant when the zombie apocalypse comes.

[Kiriyama]

Zombies sink I believe.

 

 

 

Then they walk across the bottom.

[Wisp]

They don't need to breathe, so they can walk underwater. But if the lake had a current they would probably drift with that current. An island like that would be great for a short term, it would protect you from zombies for the most part, unless one managed to get onto the island, which would happen eventually no doubt, but there wouldn't be hundreds of zombies attacking you. But, unless there are a lot of fish in the lake you couldn't stay there forever, unless you could manage to grow enough food on the island.

 

But if you could get enough supplies to last you a few weeks or months onto the island.

 

It's a good place, I'd guess since it's a mile offshore. Not a permanent hideaway in all likelihood, but it would be useful nonetheless.

Its now like, the second or third biggest thread in off topic, correct?

 

Makes you think, doesn't it?

If I get really desperate, I'm going to go to the shed, and get a pair of hammers. That should squish some brains.

well when you think about it

 

 

 

things in order of importance

 

 

 

1. breathing

 

2. water/food

 

3. shelter

 

4. survival

 

 

 

When you think about it a discussion on breathing isnt really interesting. We can talk about food and our houses so the 3rd most important thread would be about survival AKA planning for zombies.

They would only be used if you were wearing chainmail armour. Even then a gun would be better

We went through this, if you are fighting more than 2 zombies per person, you use a gun, otherwise, a melee weapon is efficient enough.

Yes, because blowing zombie guts all over the place is always the logical choice when trying to destroy the brain.

[WolfBoy989]

Two Words: Rocket Launcher

 

 

 

A rocket launcher is too bulky to carry over a distance and is useless even if you're moderately close because of the debris that gets shot everywhere. And its serious overkill... :wall:

 

 

 

Other than those, its fine...

Of course, because you're gonna get the brains no matter what, and its just a matter of spacing yourself away from the zombies so you don't get hit.

If you load an explosive into it, the electricity output alone would detonate the round/obliterate it before it even left the railgun.
