They're coming through the main door of the room you're currently in. They are present but very sparse in the street outside. What do you do? What's your next hour?

Gleefully go cap the ones here in the head, walk over to the safe and bust out the .22.
And actually wonder how they got into the house in the first place. I live in Africa. Things can't walk through the doors uninvited. The security bars are able to withstand assault with power tools for ages, so zombies = no problem. Get the woman to cover me while I make a fresh/canned food+ bottled water run to the shop across the street, and then to the gas station just behind it for the genny. Better to get it out the way while it's still there. Sit back and laugh. KBK |

Coming through the door this minute? I make a break for the back room, herding the wife and kid in front of me and closing the two doors that are in between the front entrance and back room. 12ga and 30.06 are kept there with plenty of ammo. There is a window that leads to the roof in said room, I can defend us with the 12ga. until we're able to get out the window, then have the wife watch the window entrance with the shotgun while I take out the 'sparse' population of them in the street with the 30.06. Cleaning out the ones in the street, we'll make our way back through the apartment and to my car (parked just across the street from the front door) where we'll take main highways at 75mph to my parents place in the country- also where there happens to be a larger store of ammunition and lower population, meaning a less serious infestation. ------------- ? |

Too late to sneak over to gun shops as daylight has already struck. Move all furniture in the dorm to barricade doors. Fire up some porn and masturbate furiously until death or rescue. More realistic course of action: Gather essential supplies: some food, water, flashlight, jacket, helmet and paintball vest (protection), camera (to document event), laptop (if infrastructure is still running for a while I want to be able to use it for as long as possible), money for bribes, knife, and phone. Contact parents, if response, goal is Boca Raton, if not, some podunk town with a low population. Run over to flight line (less than 100 yds from dorm). Rent a plane and fly to goal. If the panic has already started, steal plane instead. -------------

Pick up fully loaded Kimber Tatical custom II that is 1 ft from my right hand. Shoot zombies, If I run outta ammo...pick up G/F's Glock G27 that is also fully loaded sitting 2 1/2 ft. from right hand and shoot remaining zombies. Walk across hallway into bedroom 20 FT from first seated. pick up Rem 870 "fully loaded" as G/F is getting the Beretta 92 from head board of bed. Load up both AR15's and grab my PS90. Get ammo from basement. G/F and I deal with zombies in street. load food, water, medical supplies, and toilet paper into truck and have G/f drive to PD and I stand out of sun roof shooting zombies. Get to PD and hook up with friends that also have zombie plans. Kinda long....But it works. ------------- It sucks being antisocial alone. |

| If he's coming through the door there's no way I'm going to be able to unlock the gun cabinet, so the first one is getting stabbed in the eye with a ski-pole and clubbed with an ammo can, if I can barricade this room, i'll grab the SKS, if not I'll use the ironing board as a shield and ski-pole as a lance and retreat to the bathroom, where I can barricade and clear out my room and retrieve a frag vest, don some heavy clothing with long sleeves, and grab the shotty. Clear the house, barricade, and shoot any zombies in the immediate area(corpses for barricades), then pack up supplies and attempt to contact survivors. |

I'm freaking screwed if Zombies hit right now. I'm in a reading room with nothing but wooden furniture and a mac. I suppose I could make the zombie try and chase me around the giant table in the middle of the room, and bolt out the one door leading to the hallway. But after that I'd either have to deal with a sparse population that has grown significantly (center of college campus next to the largest dorm on campus, and there are always a bunch of people right outside) or a mass panic preventing me from doing anything but running. In the off chance that the Zack population hasn't grown significantly, and assuming these aren't rage-virus or fast moving zombies, I think I would do well to go to the athletic complex right across the street, grab a weight bar/baseball bat/golf club, and go to town on some zombie wig-splitting. If they are fast moving zombies, I'm screwed to begin with, so I figure I would allow myself to get infected, go to the medical center and put myself into a drug-induced coma, and sleep through the transformation. After I got done with the head-bashing, I'd call my family to see how things are in Houston. If bad enough here or there, arrange for us to meet in one of the podunk towns in between with a population of (literally) 346. From there, who knows. -------------

I'm at work in the hospital, so this is pretty much zombie central. I guess I'd run to my truck (assuming they haven't crowded the parking lot) keep my Glock close and drive to my parents place in the country for some good old fashioned hold up and wait. -------------

Great. I'm in the loft of my house. Two ways to main level are the stairs which I'm sure is the route they're taking to get to me. The other is going over the rail onto the beams that cross over my family room. Only handy weapons are two of my big powerlifting trophies. One will make a dandy club. Depending on how mobile and coordinated the particular undead are, I'll take my chances and fight my way down the stairs to the main level for a set of keys hanging near the kitchen. Will have to double back towards and past the stairs that I just came down in the first place and go to the basement. There I have my Remington 870, SKS and my Glock 23. Chances are, I won't have the time to unsecure and load one of the weapons in time to save myself, but for the sake of the argument, I'll continue.
I have 1200 rds of hollow point 7.62X39 ammo for the rifle so that will be my primary weapon. If it's a given I can get all three weapons loaded, I'll use the shotgun to clear a path back upstairs and try to secure the house. After the house is secured get the weapons loaded into the car and head for my wife's office to grab her and the baby then procede to get my stepson from school. I'll then head for my brother-in-law and father-in-law's houses as they have more weapons and ammo I should be able to secure. I'd like to try and make a run for my parent's house 50 miles away, but I don't know if that would be feasible. Closest National Guard armory is close to where my parents live, but I'm sure they'll have everything barricaded by the time I got down there. Only thing that stands to reason is to head for less populated areas. Less people means less zombies. Find a place we can hole up in with whatever food we can scavenge and ride things out until the military can organize a response. -------------

I love you bri. We are going to need some better specifics about the zombies in question, do they run? Are they the mindless undead kind? Or the virus infected variant? How sparse is the presence in the surrounding area? But, basing this off of my normal ideas of zombies... Turn around and run out the backdoor of the library. Make my way out to the parking lot and get in my camaro. Assuming the virus started here on campus and hasn’t spread out yet; I'd stop and stock up on fuel. Then drive out to my grandpa's house. I'd send a mass text to all my cell phone contacts to see who is alive, and for everyone remaining, set a meeting point and requesting them to bring absolutely any supplies they have available. My grandpa has got enough guns, ammo, and munitions loading equipment and canned foods to keep us pretty stocked up (he hates going to the store), along with the fact that he lives in a very rural area, so we would have time to stockpile. Load every bit of food and weaponry into the vehicles, and get the hell out of dodge, driving west into KS, its COMPLETELY flat, so we could see anything coming for miles and miles, and pretty much find a secluded house, fortify and hold up there. When food runs low, use the SUV's in the group for supply missions. 1 driver, 3 gunners per SUV. Siphon gas out of less useful vehicles when needed; I'd problem use my car to scout out areas, it’s fast and gets good mileage. EDIT: Thriller FTW. |

Since I just so happen to be packing to go deer and grouse hunting this one is pretty easy for me. Load my 12 gauge with pheasant rounds and blast him a few times. Or...shoot him with an arrow in the face. Either or will work. -------------

Perfect timing! Seriously, I was just coming online to email my updated insurance photos to my renter's insurance company to cover the replacement costs of my firearms.
This pile-o-weapons and mags is sitting not 2 feet from me. 
I supposed the hardest part would be to chose between the 1911 and the PA-63. I'm gonna go with the 1911 for here since it's got JHP and Glaser Silver rounds in the mags. There's 13 rounds between the two types. Then I'd switch to the PA-63 if necessary (another 14 rounds in mags. I'm hoping there aren't more zombies than that'd take care of in the room as it isn't very big. From there, I'd get to the ammo can in the bedroom and toss the extra live rounds from the closet stash in there with all the surplus 7.62x54r. I'd grab the hoppes #9 and rem oil with my cleaning kit as well. I'd top off any mags needed, toss the extra ammo, cleaning kits, and extra brass in my rolling duffel, strap on the PA-63 and sling the PSL and toss the mosin and .22LR in the bag with the now empty 1911. From there it's a short half-flight of steps down to the parking lot and 20 feet to my car. I'd probably iron-sight the psl and take out whatever zombies were in the lot and then load up the car. From there I'd hit the Kingstown wal-mart or Gilbert's small arms which are both only a few miles from me and load up on any extra ammo they had for my calibers. I'd also probably go ahead and empty my accounts at the ATM on the way since Gilbert's will probably want compensation for anything I grab. I'd also pick up a mossy 500 while I was at it. From there, It's a short drive to shorty's house where I'd probably have to break in since he's at work right now. Before I got there I'd hit up a grocery store for a lot of potable water. Then I'd barricade myself in shorty's basement and await him, his wife, and my fiancee since she knows the zombie evacuation plan means I'd go to shorty's. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig.

If I was in my dorm I would actually be very safe. Pull the fire alarm so the elevators shut down and lock myself in my room. I am on the 7th floor so there is no chance of them coming in through the windows. Also, you have to use a key to get out of the stairwell on to each floor other than 1. Since zombies can't use keys, I would be pretty much impervious to them. Use my duct tape to mark my windows with an "SOS", fly my flag upside down out the window, grab my laptop and wait for a rescue.

Im in a computer lab, with stone age computers that are bolted down to the table, so im screwed. My goal would be to scrable to my dorm room, and try not to die in the process. When in dorm room, wear several layers of heavy clothing and await until further plans arise. For weapons, I only have conventional furniture, a lacrosse stick, and a bat. So... no BAMF shotgun wielding, AR15 eliminating, 1911 BOTW usage for me.... -------------

Sometimes it's all you're got. I'm in a small office in my apartment right now, only one door. I'm on the second floor. I've got within reach a two foot short sword and a kukhri. My immediate goals would be to survive the first few, get the door closed, and hope to safely drop out a window into the street. Five minutes away we have an elevated highway that serves city buses exclusively. I would hope to get there, and outrun/outmanoeuvre any zekes I run into. That would at least buy me a bit of time to move uptown. If I survive the first hour and get to a slightly less built up area my next plan would be to steal a car- though if the opportunity to do so arises earlier, then hell yes. With the car, I'm less than a two hour drive to a major military base I'm pretty familiar with. I'd intent to make it there and meet up with the units mobilizing to fight back and start the cleanup. If we ended up in a societal collapse scenario and the military falls apart, I'd scrounge as much as I could in terms of weapons, useful defensive supplies, and would try to make it out to a family farm way out in the sticks. They've got enough there to be self sufficient. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I might be a vegged out computer geek most of the time, but I like to think I would notice zombies making their way through my house BEFORE they make it to "breaking down this rooms door" But crap. I guess Id be screwed if that was the case though, I dont really have anything weapon-worthy in this room. Maybe I could throw an old computer case and run. My katana is in the next room over, but a bladed weapon is about the worst possible choice against zombies... -------------

Since I'm on my living room, I can just run straight out the back door. From there, try to get into my car or find some friends who live only a few blocks away. Try to get onto I-80 and speed it through the country to find some deserted country town or if the bridge is closed, hop on GSP, to Turnpike, to Newark Airport and fly to wherever the hell zombies aren't. -------------

Another bad idea; this just gives them something to grab onto so they can hold you in place and eventually gnaw through your defensive layers. (Remember, it only takes one managing to get a grip to slow you down sufficiently for the rest to catch up.) Access to the room I'm in is limited (odd, inconvenient entryway) and there is a table between me and the door. I also store my pistol in this room. However, given the tactical situation, the table is being used as a ram/shield to clear the door so I can lock it and tip over a CD shelf to brace it. Only then will I grab the pistol. (Grabbing it first would allow too many in the room.) If there are no zombies outside, I will grab what I can to stay warm and get out there. I'd bust in the back door, grab the keys and head for the car in the garage. If the cat is close, I'll grab her too; otherwise, she's on her own with the zombies.* After that, it's just a matter of staying away from populated areas long enough for the current temp to turn them into Z-sicles, get some face/eye protection (for splatter), an object capable of causing significant blunt force trauma and start playing Little Bunny Foo Foo with the zombies in the field mice role. If I run into any other survivors I will of course Edit: Given the room I'm in, I'm glad they're the Romero type. I'd be hosed with a faster type. *Poor zombies.** **Or, as she will be thinking of them, poor formerly human shambling cat chew-toys/scratching posts. -------------

Scissors to the back of the neck ,severing the spinal cord. Sure they would still be alive, munching carpet but that would keep them busy while I walk to the garage to grab an axe. Then it is skull splitting time. Since I dont own any firearms, I get to be creative.

While Ammolord wasn't actually posting from school, when I was a kid, it wasn't uncommon for the redneck kids to have their hunting weapons on their gun-racks in the back of their pick-ups all deer-season. When I was in college, we were not prohibited from having and keeping weapons on campus. We were politely asked to keep any arms in the gun locker at the campus police station, but weren't required to. I kept a 10/22 under my bed for a whole year. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig.

Back to the zombie thing: re-thinking this since the door is only 5 feet away my irst reaction is going to be to throw my glass at its face, second is to swing the ammo can. If it's the only one that's made it up the stairs so far there's an aluminum step-ladder I can jam in the stairwell to tangle them up while I load the .22 pistol and go with brain shots, saving my centerfire ammo for longer ranges and to try to get to the gun store if possible. For the expedition i'd gather up survivors and get the 2 1/2 ton from the highway garage, attach the plow, and use it as a gun truck. Maybe I'd take a roadside mower to clear the way. evil Elvis can hold out here if he can escape the city and bring enough ammo to pay the rent. |

All you guys are lying to my face. We're talking ZOMBIES here. The living dead. Something that has never happened before, i.e. the reanimation of a dead body, is happening and it happens to stroll through your front door. Me, I'd at first question what was going on, be taken aback by shock, probably panic, and in my panic-induced fluster, trip while trying to run away and get eaten or something. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Flip my desk into their path. Run to my closet, grab some golf clubs. Defeat the zombies in my immediate proximity via blows to the head. Lock my apartment doors. Change into hiking boots, jeans, long under armor (extra layer of teeth-proof), long sleeve shirt. Grab my knife, phone, wallet (lol), and a few of the aforementioned golf clubs. Fill my backpack with some food, change of clothes, and load up a few water bottles. Grab my sunglasses AND my aviators, so I can hunt / run in style. Don't forget my deodorant, for when I meet a hot chick 13 hours from now who I save from zombies. ??? Profit. -------------

Actually we are talking home invasion here. Standard routine is draw gun (today it'll be grab gun, it wasn't riding comfy in it's holster). Verbally challenge the intruders, with the statement any closer and I'll shoot, covering myself legally as any further advance can be constituted an assault. If they advance, shoot. The growling and the blood spattered face / clothes will make things process easier. I'd agree with you if you came up with something like Final Fantasy the movie invisible ghost aliens. But zombies? We've been exposed to them before. True only in fiction, but they aren't going to over load the OODA loop. At least they shouldn't. No more than any other home invasion. The first target might suck up the first double tap, so it would have to switch to FTS drills. KBK |

^^^ Valid point. Well, assuming I didn't panic, I'm in my dining room, kinda trapped in a corner. But that affects the zombie too, as I've got a table and many chairs between it and me. I've got nothing in the effect of a weapon, so I'd probably throw the coffee mug at it. Wait, there's a floor lamp in the corner, about 6' tall (I'm looking around as I type this). I'd use the lamp to push it back (wouldn't try to kill it with it, just keep it at bay), until I get out the room and run to mine. I'd grab my over/under, toss in two shells and aim for the head. The noise would wake up my family (if they already weren't awake from the previous scuffle) and my dad would grab his .38 special. We'd stock up on what canned foods we had, raid any grocery/tool/gun store we could. It's 3 in the morning so it shouldn't be too bad yet. Then we'd high-tail it to a little podunk town and fortify. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Horrible, horrible plan. Breaking into another person's house? Its a pretty good bet you'll catch a bullet for that by the homeowners. The zombies would be the least of your problems. ------------- ? |

| i'm in the attic, so I'd probably hear them bust in. plan of action.... run out the back way to my car since i have no guns or anything to take out a zombie. go zombie bowling in my saturn and go somewhere... where that is... I don't know. probably parents, but i think all of his guns are in storage for the move. I'd have to hit up my grandpa's pad, he's loaded to his teeth. |

In my apartment I don't have many options. I might be able to chuck a printer at their head and fend them off with my desk chair for a short while, but with the front door open the sounds would just invite more zombies in. As a last ditch effort, I would aim to stab them in the eye socket with a screwdriver, hoping not to get bit. Considering that it requires a 3 story climb in stairs, or an elevator ride up, I can be fairly sure that this zombie is one of the other residents, so most likely other apartments have been compromised. I'm pretty sure none of my neighbors would survive, so all the other apartments have just turned into potential zombie breedin' dens. Its maybe a 24 foot drop to the ground outside my window, and theres a grassy strip underneath that I would probably be able to land on. With luck I would just sprain something. The road in front of my apartment is just a small access road with a dormitory currently being renovated on the other side. The rear door to the building is wide open. Hopefully the construction workers would have taken care of the immediate zombie threat in the street and since none of them have firearms, I should be able to prove I'm not a zombie before they react. From here, I could either try to wait it out in the dorm with the workers, or make a break to the mountains, only 100 yards or so from the dorm. Trying to drive to safety would be a nightmare, as campus is located on the edge of Waikiki and the zombie population is bound to be out of hand. Escape by plane would be impossible since I would need to cross through Honolulu. Boat might be even harder, since I would need to cross through Waikiki.t The dorm roof is 13 stories high and has a lanai that extends around the entire circumference of the tower. This would allow an excellent observation post, and the entire tower is very defensible. The location would hopefully mean that a helicopter might pass by, and the high roof would make signalling one easier easier. The only downside is its right near a very large urban center and as mentioned above there would be a large number of zombies from the initial invasion of the dorms. Additionally, food might be scarce, but the cafeteria is another 20 yards from the tower and we might be able to grab some provisions before things get out of hand. I can't be sure the building still has water, so that might be a problem too. Depending on how well stocked in supplies the tower is, and the severity of the injuries from my fall, the mountains would probably be my best bet. The climb up is very steep and rocky, no zombie could make it from the same point. If the entire island becomes infected, the terrain still works to our favor, but there are many other points they could come from. Additionally, wild guava and other fruit grow in the area, and if its possible, so do wild boar. Finally, the mountains lie in the middle of the island, so it may be possible to find other people somewhere who are also surviving (such as the marine and army bases). The tower would allow me to check out what obstacles lay in my way. My biggest concern would be a massive pile-up on the 4 lane highway between the dorms and the mountain. Such an obstacle would guarantee zombies. ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |

| ^ tower would be amazing in a low population area, but living so close to so many people would pretty much ensure a massive rush of zombies at some point. |
