If there was a zombie apocalypse

or just an apocalypse.
What would you do to survive? What would your plan be? Where to go? Who to shack up with(or not)? Etc etc etc.
And yes, I know, you could argue we're already in the middle of one. But that aside.. |

I've decided I'm going to sacrifice myself for my family if ever we are running from zombies. I'm the fattest and should keep them occupied for a while. |

Would find a country house and shack up there, should be easy to secure and have far reaching views to spot the pesky zombies. |

I thought that but realised they want brains so I'd just be a snack |

I have a plan. It involves water, a raised 360 degree look out platform, foraging possibilities and a metal steep sided defendable position. For starters. I take it you attempted to go shopping on a long bank holiday weekend, OP? |

"Are they going to be the fast running and clever type zombie or the slow and bumbling ones?"
The fast ones aren't zombies,they haven't died,they are infected. |

Yes I had a right game of it trying to find sprouts seeing as all the shops are closed for some pagan festival or other. Got me brain ticking as i cycled desperately from one shuttered up shop to another as the sun slowly lowered and the banks of cloud glowered a dull red.
Etc.

1. Choosing my weapon
Everyone knows the only way to kill a zombie is to destroy its brain. So I've secured a firearm and crossbow as I prefer to dispatch with zombies at a distance.
However, should I be taken by a surprise close encounter with a hidden zombie, it might be hard to fire a shot. I am prepared to use the butt of my gun to smash the cranium of my unwanted undead.
2. Assembling my team
Determined leader: A calm, steady Woman who's not afraid to take charge and make decisions. That would be me.
Medical professional: Even without the threat of the zombie virus, life in the apocalypse is going to be medical minefield.
Wise counsel: When I need advice, i must have someone intelligent and reliable to whom I can turn.
Wild warrior: Every group needs a fighter, that half-crazed but fearless guy or gal in camo who will take one for the team and still keep going, even when it seems all is lost.
Kind caregiver: A nurturing, optimistic soul with a sympathetic ear and ability to cheer up even the bleakest of situations.
3. Scouting my location
Once I've assembled a respectable Zombie Survival Team, we rendezvous as quickly as possible at a pre-selected site which will provide ample shelter, food, water, and other supplies for what might end up being months — even years. I cannot disclose that location on an open forum.
4. My bags are packed
Clothing that will stand up to long treks in search of food and shelter, all kinds of weather, and fierce battles.
What to pack? I'll be living in these same clothes for a long time (hopefully), so comfortable, well-fitting layers that won't chafe or be easily grabbed by grasping zombies or bad guys.
Stain resistance is a plus. Sturdy boots are a must. They have heels, but I can run in them and use as a weapon as a last resort!
Plenty of extra socks and underwear.
5. Hold onto my humanity
The good guys will always win. Always. So I'm going to be nice.
Then go out and kill those zombies. |

If you have to kill their brains I'm going to play Leonard Cohen songs over a tannoy and have Jeremy Kyle and Eastenders on a loop on big screens outside my rabbit and carrot farm. |

I've planned this all out, specifically for a zombie apocalypse. With help from my brothers, I'll move the wardrobes, fridge, sofas etc to block the doors and windows. Then I can board up the windows. I'll move the rest of my family upstairs, then destroy the stairs so there's no way up if zombies get in. We have an extension so I can go on the roof from second floor windows and then climb down on our cars. We'll stay inside for a week or so and ration our food. Then I'll use hammers and hatchets etc and go raiding in our neighbours houses, then tesco near us. We live down a little road so I'll block it off with cars to put off looters. I've spent a lot of time planning this lol |

Of course I know it's not real silly billies but I'm ass and totally confident about making it work. I think it's a solid plan and I've already recruited most of the team. |

Well I'm a professional zombie killer ( .. according to the resident evil games at least) and living in the countryside has taught me valuable survival skills like fire making.
I'd like to think I'd be pretty bad ass in an apocalypse, but I'd probably be The Worst. I work at a food distribution company so I'd bed down there with our warehouse full of food and our ovens and fridges and lorries with fuel and a shower even.
Might acquire a rifle and pick the oncoming undead off from the roof when the weather is decent though. |

Is it available on ps3? My laptop is way too old for steam, sadly.
Also I won't lie, I'd end up in a fall out kind of apocalypse which would suck because I couldn't get to grips with that one. |

You would want canned food. Near Southam Road there is plenty stored.
Would also want to head in direction to Northampton and ask the guy half way through if you could use one of his vehicles. If you know you know. |

I think I will do just fine. I am a natural born survivor. I like to spend my spare time in the wild on my own. Due to various injurys I contain a lot of metal holding bones together. So if the buggers were to bit me they at least would not be able to bite anyone else.
Not that it will ever happen but the fantasy of it puts a smile on my face. |

I'd wait till everyone left my town, make myself some armour out of what I could, and raid all the shops, supermarkets, homes I could.
Then spread my net wider and get enough supplies to keep me alive for as long I can. |

Week 1 would be spent A team style at a nearby camper van dealership workshop, strong mesh on all the windows waist high blades out the sides and a good set of zombie bars on the front and back to clear a path.
Then a drive to a castle with a good moat and drawbridge gathering weapons and supplies on the trip. medieval weapons, defences and armour seem to be the most effective in a gun powder free war. Though for fast zombies I may go for a mine field option, they are much easier to shoot in the head if you take their legs off first |

I'm heading to the local shooting range for their guns. I'm then heading to Costco, good strong walls, block the door & survive for some time on all the food that is in there. There's also knives & chainsaws so I should be ok.
I might invite knitter to come and stay, she has a group and has also planned this out.

1. Find container park and create secure compound using containers
2. Locate nearest military base and source weaponry, vehicles (including a fire engine to carry water) explosives and fuel
3. Find nearest garden centre and take poly growing tunnels and seeds
4. Raid supermarkets and outdoor shops for food, clothing and camping supplies
