There is no need for them to list firearm because they plan on having all of them.

I also have included a bus in my kit, in order to save some fools who think a mountain hideout would be a good zombie plan.

I actually think the best plan of action if it were available would be a nuclear aircraft carrier.

Similar to my plan actually...my plan is Rykers Island and you sir are welcome to join....however if you were able to secure said aircraft carrier, I am with you.

Not being nitpicky but isn't that place designed to keep motherfuckers in?  Although there has to be some pretty good control points.

Once you got the island cleaned out I figure its the safest place you can be.  Surrounded by water...last time I check Zombies can't swim.  Walls and like you said control points.  Have to have a boat to go and get supplies from time to time.

Yeah, but you wouldn't want to take your kids on it.  I hear it's pretty dangerous.

No but they can walk along bottom.  You would have to pick an island with deep enough water so that the zombies would be crushed.

This is why I can't wait till the next series of the 'Walking Dead" comes on TV. You can get some pretty decent pointers of what to do and not to do.

Well see this is a whole different conversation.  What is the crush depth for a zombie?  Seems like we need to ask these questions of the CDC.

The only way to complete destroy a zombie is to crush its entire head.  Otherwise the disassembled parts will still try and reanimate themselves...

Per Monster Hunter International, the preiminent monster erradication company on the planet:

There are many different variations of undead, with your basic zombie being the simplest of all. A zombie is just an animated corpse, wandering around in search of one thing: flesh. The big problem with zombies is that they multiply like rabbits. Their bites are always eventually fatal, and the bitten always rise as zombies themselves. Their poison travels instantly through the nervous system, and not even amputation of the bitten limb can stop the transformation. Basically, they're a major pain in the ass, the Monster Hunter's equivalent to cockroaches. Usually stupid, and normally slow, zombies are not much of a challenge for an experienced Hunter, provided that said Hunter has a decent gun and friends with guns.

We're dealing with some serious shit here.

What about people that couldn't swim before they were infected?  Would they just automatically learn the ability to swim?  Or are the zombies just not buoyant at all?

Title: Re: Zombies!
Post by: Godfather on May 20, 2011, 12:55:20 PM
Ok first of all who are we assuming the can walk under the water?  Uhhh what keeps them from floating, is that a special zombie power fighting the laws of buoyancy? Second, pretty sure they can't make a swimming motion, so even if they walked in the water they would just kind of bob and dloat there.  I guess it is possible through the tides that they could get to where I was at.

MHI advises the liberal application of shotgun at close range - decapitation plus skull crush all at once.    Decapitation by machete will also work if you crush the skull after. The animated corpse doesnt swim per se - it will sink (Dead weight, right?) and can then walk under water, but the dismembered pieces will float like traditional road kill once they are de-animated.

For a more in-depth review, I highly recommend Larry Corriea's Monster Hunter International and Monster Hunter: Vendetta. Monster Hunter: Alpha is out in September.  I got Jarhead to read these and he gave them serious thumbs up.
 
Who says you have to read non-fiction to learn anything new!!

Well if the zombie is wearing an old school diving suit it will be at around 100m.

I know I wouldn't be trying to fight my way through the zombie army with a machete.  Let's say that they do act like the ninjas on the old Sunday afternoon karate festivals and attack me one at a time.  Yeah, I can kill them all, but I would be so close the splatter from the first would zombify me by the time I made it to the back of the line.  No thanks.

Always keep your lawnmower handy is the best advice.

Dead bodies float because gas builds up in them as they decay filling them with gas.  Zombies are just filled with hate and putrified blood and are able to fart out any excess gas so they sink enabling them to walk along bottom and create zombie sharks.  Do I have to explain every little detail?

I seriously doubt that a zombie could make it through shark infested waters.  Sharks eat carrion and carrion in motion would be an irresistable target for a great white.  And since sharks have tiny little fish brains, I doubt the zombie virus could affect them.  So maybe we can build a moat and fill it with sharks and then the zombies would be shark bait before they got to us...

You just gotta be smarter than the undead brain muncher - how hard can it be?

I don't know.  I consider myself smarter than houseflies and I still can't keep those annoying little SOB's out of my house.  What chance do I have of keeping a zombie out?
