Distracted Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Alright, this is done pretty quickly and is just the basic idea. It's also assuming we're taking other survivors with us. The brown thing at the bottom are the docks, arrival space for boats and such. The grey line starting there is the road leading to the fortified city. The red lines around the road are mines (which should detonate 1-2 secs after a zombie steps on it, since by then more zombies will be in the blast zone.), this would ofcourse be off limits for any human being, unless they know what they're doing. The black are the city walls, with the purple part of it being the storage place, where cars, weapons and perhaps food could be stored. The road splits up in two, of which one goes to all the yellow houses for other survivors (and ourselves). These houses should be the home of 3-5 people each. There are some smaller houses near the walls where people could live alone. The other road splits to the storage room, and stays wide for vehicles (which are otherwise not allowed in the city). The maroon building is the TZDF HQ, where we train possible new recruits, we do weapon practise and other TZDF related things. The purple triangle at the bottom of the city is the first-aid corner and also hospital, put there so if someone injured enters, they can be treated immediately. The yellowish-greenish thing at the center of the island is the watchtower, set there so it can see all of the island. And the light-blue circle at the top-left of the island is a well, one of the main water supplies. Well, that's it, I guess. Just gimme feedback and such.

I bet there's a lot of islands in the Pacific that aren't inhabited, and probably a lot of have mountains surrounding a center, which would protect us even better. And this is a long-term plan. When we first get there, our main concern would be a source of fresh water, and then we'd make some tents to start off. The wall would be the first building we make, afterwards we can start doing the rest. The only thing is, we would need people able to make stones, or all our houses could be made of wood.

BlackDawn Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 How do we get there...? Airports will likely be overrun so we can't exactly take a plane of helicopter, plus most of us can't fly either of them. Unless we've got some sort of plan to get everybody to the island we'll have to come up with a slightly easier to reach place. That's why you're on the TZDF blackdawn.

No, on a more serious note, a zombie invasion is more probably to start off in one spot, so I'm thinking that the best way to handle this is to maybe not go in the center of the Pacific where no one would be able to go, but an island that's already inhabited, then just improving it's defence and such? I'm thinking off the coast of for example Greece or Japan, who both have a lot of islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDawn Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Why bother with walls? Why not dig a 6-7ft ditch around the place, then put a set of 3ft high pallisades on the inside of it facing out, with more palisades in the ditch itself? In the event of a zombie invasion, they fall into the ditch and are impaled, therefore trapped. Eventually, the zombie piles would grow high enough for them to use it as a bridge. But since zombies cannot jump or climb, they run right into the palisade, and create a wall of zombies where the zombie bridge is. *Sigh* We've gone through this once before. What's the point of having palisades? Sure, they might [bleep]e the zombies, but they won't kill them. With walls we have no worries at all, the zombies will have no chance at all of climbing over them, plus if we have guards with rifles at the top then those zombies will be downed within minutes.

But it would take weeks or even months to build walls high and wide enough to keep zombies out of a large area. How about combining them? Short-term, pits with [bleep]es, barbwire and other such items of death and doom and whatnot, and long-term a wall with armed men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragoonson Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Palisades have always been intended to last only as long as it takes to build a proper wall.Like in AoE II.Palisades never made your full walling,because they were so easily crushable by 3 men-at-arms swinging swords. so i herd u liek devarts?If you look at me and feel offended by my 666-ism,think.I could be just as offended by your "cross".[hide=This's why I'm hot]The Eleventh Commandment:Thou Shalst only say "Amen,brother".Amen, brother :lol:Amen, brudda (referring to the 10th commandment)amen Bruder!

Seraphi Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 With the palisades, you say that if they get impaled they wont die, but if they fell into a pit of palisades, I'm almost sure one would get lodged into the brain. Then again, why not just ditches full of alligators or piranhas or something that would eat the zombies...that way there is no problem with cleaning the pits out.

Then again, why not just ditches full of alligators or piranhas or something that would eat the zombies...that way there is no problem with cleaning the pits out. All animals reject solanum infected meat, so basically that plan fails. Besides, if an animal actually did eat some zombie flesh they would die, zombie flesh is highly poisonous.

Distracted Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 ^Thanks Mage :) Hmm, about the short term pallisades and such, assuming we have water, can zombies swim? I don't think they can, so I think it would be a good idea to make the ditch, fill it with water, and if they somehow can swim, blocking the ditch with water with [bleep]es. If you don't really understand what I mean: Although a man-made ditch would probably not be deep enough, so this would only be a viable solution at some kind of river, where the current could help us clean out the zombies.

mmmcannibalism Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 can I get a pic with cannibal written on it please? as a thought, when we make walls will they be vertical walls or will we have them lean outward to make it harder to climb? edit--wrote my rs name instead of name on here on accident.

By my limited knowledge of imperial - metric, 20 ft = 20 * 30cm = 600cm, which is 6m. 6m is about the length of 3 basketballplayers standing on eachothers head, and building such a thing would take way too long. But then again, building a leaning wall will have challenges of itself, like keeping it standing after being attacked. We'd probably have to reinforce it from our side, but I like the leaning idea more then the 6m wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
