So why don't we just wear bullet proof clothing? That would prevent zombie bites (they could still tear skin, but they couldn't infect us), and it's not really bulky. Plus, it would give us protection from raiders.

Well, its because clothing that is fully bulletproof would be hard to get I imagine, and there is the problem of those who can getting it getting the right sizes for us all.

 

 

 

While zombie have the same teeth as humans, they don't give up, and are likely to attack you until they get at your flesh.

Again, you aren't likely to encounter a single zombie.

 

 

 

Good luck fighting off a whole pack tearing at every part they can reach.

At which point you shoot/knife/snap neck/wrestle/cry for help?

 

 

 

Nah, thats too easy. And from what I gather, BP clothing isn't that hard to obtain, and wearing multiple leather layers is actually very effective in stopping most forces.

Zombies don't travel in pacts, and will wander randomly unless they hear/see/sense human presence. The chances of multiple zombies finding you in a non-populated area is slim.

 

 

 

How fast does solanum spread? Becuase, say if you are bitten in the arm...What if you amputate that arm? Would that prevent it from spreading? I suppose it would spread as fast as you blood moves...?

 

Blood goes through your body pretty damn fast, so I doubt it. But if you were bitten somewhere where there weren't any major blood vessels, and you acted quickly, you might have a chance. I suppose if you were going to die anyway, amputation might be a good thing to try.

 

 

 

So we amputate them and find a way to contain them until we are certain they prove no threat and are therefore free from the virus.

 

 

 

However, what use would someone who has lost an arm really be? Or a leg (granted, we can prepare and have a few wheelchairs).

 

 

 

However, I suppose they would be valuable when society is reformed, as they can pass on their knowledge more.

 

 

 

Hell, they could even be used to cook food, and help in construction rather than defend. Looks like I answered myself -.-.

 

 

 

Plently of jobs where you don't need fully funciional limbs. As long as you can see, hear or smell your going to be of use to us.

True I suppose. What if you get seperated / your griup gets killed though? :ohnoes:

That just about sums up a zombie outbreak for us non - TZDF'ers

If you make a camp somewhere, and make noise, it would attract zombies from all directions. But, a well disciplined and equipped group could take out almost any number of zombies that were surrounding them. I think it says they move a max of one step ever 1.5 seconds. A group of five people could probably take out 500 zombies if they were surrounded, as long as they had enough ammunition, and they were skilled enough.

That could be a bad idea, as you could never be sure when the zombies that were coming at you are completly gone.

That is very true. One thing I just noticed... we're going to kind of NEED SOMEONE WITH MEDICAL TRAINING.

I have wilderness first aid training, so I can do basic things (casts, stitches, stopping bleeding unless it's really serious) but I'm not a doctor or anything.

Hey,I could be a medic too.I'm trained in field first-aid.I don't mean fields of flowers,I mean field of combat.Imagine that.Sniping and healing.I'm no surgeon though.

What if one of us became trained as a white mage or holy priest?

We already discussed the use of magic...

 

 

 

Besides, what use would a preist be? He'd be all "We shouldn't kill God's creations!"

Do we really need to do this every other page? :wall:

Bait.

Obviously.

Eh that's what happens when threads get this long, people run out of things to talk about so they repeat everything.

We should make a list of skills that we'll need (Ill update as we go)

 

Sniper(s)

 

Medic!

 

Mechanic (if we're using veicles(sp)

 

Someone who can teach us the basics of anti-zombie warfare,

 

wilderness survival guide

 

Compiler of random information (me!)

Nah, cause if we get surrounded on the island, we're screwed.

 

 

 

Plus if its in the middle of a river anyway, the problem is getting supplies once we get surrounded.

I don't think snipers would be needed. I mean, sure, they would help, but 10 or so people shouldn't just stand around waiting and watching all day, they can help build/cook or whatever, and in an emergency run up and start unloading.

Obviously they wouldn't just have their rifle, but another weapon or at the very least a sidearm. But people on eatch duty are needed, and who better than some snipers in a tree? And in your emergency, they would use the aforementioned "secondary" weapon. And how many people really need to cook at once?

I suppose so. And we would need to have high up towers, an army of zombies could knock over a tree.
