Zombies!!!!

[Mystic Thunder]

I was watching dawn of the dead again and was thinking. what would i do if zombies ever attacked kuwait?

First i'd get me a steel pipe and an axe. after that find a secure place and stock up on goods.

what about you guys??

[Mystic Thunder]

oh and get as many survivors

[Mr. Daltrey]

If Zombies attacked the middle east?

pop open the crystahl.

[Mystic Thunder]

Oil And A Lighter. They Can Burn

[psychoDiablo]

lol Mr. Daltrey.

if they attacked Kuwait? hmm, i think i'd turn on the radio and listen...or something.

nah i'd just drive around, in hopes that Omega Venom is gonna stop them from spreading to the USofA.

[Mystic Thunder]

dude if they attacked anywhere nt just kuwait. if they did attack here im gonna need some help

[Indiana Tones]

I smell crack...

[psychoDiablo]

well you said kuwait. not anywhere.


i'd just go down to the base right here and get myself a tank. you'd be unstoppable

[Mystic Thunder]

yeah well you would eventually run out of supplys. food and ammunition

[psychoDiablo]

yeah well you would eventually run out of supplys. food and ammunition

but you dont need ammo. just run those fuckers over. or. save your ammo for the mothership. then just start bombarding, where they are spawning.

as for food...lol get out and eat the zombies back!

[argentmoon]

To stop the undead, don't you cut off their head? I mean, if you disconnect any other part of them, they're still functioning, but without the head...

[psychoDiablo]

but without the head...

they just cant bite you.

[Mystic Thunder]

damage the brain or cut off the head.

well you could run them over but if you eat them youd probably get infected

[sazzle]

wtf???

Ok, why would zombies attack kuwait?
Is there something ur not telling us?:rolleyes:

[Guinness And Mohawks]

i have my own zombie contingency plan, its called MAD, or a flamethrower. one or the other.

[tynie]

me....

i'd go to lancaster. Cause they've got stores. I'd go batshit.

To Start Off... That's pretty good. But having a before hand plan of action. A safe base. But you want to make sure you stay away from anywhere that's going to have lots of people. The more people in one area the more likely a zombie is to find you. So stocking up before-hand is a good idea. What you have to realize is that zombie last from 2-3 years before they are gone. If your going to hunker down you need to have enough supplys to last that long. If you are unprepared as most people tend to be... stay away from:

Hostpitals: That's where the sick is... if any one person gets afflicted... it's sweeps the whole building like crazy.

Stores that don't have food... I.E. Music store, Clothes Store, ect...

People flock to Supercenters like Walmart... where there are lots of poeple is where you shouldn't be.

Malls can be good... but there are lots of entrances to guard. That becomes a problem.

If you can though... groups of 5-10 are good. It becomes easier to keep ones sanity, over the constant moaning, with people you trust. (the moaning drives most hunkered down people insane in about 3-5 days... assuming it's constant)

i have my own zombie contingency plan, its called MAD, or a flamethrower. one or the other.

I'm not exactly sure what MAD is... but I can tell you right now a flame thrower won't do crap. Not only would it not stop the zombies... but then you would have walking towers of fire that want to eat you. There would be chain reactions from the Zombies if you were being mobbed they would all be on fire soon enough. Plus the smell.

To stop the undead, don't you cut off their head? I mean, if you disconnect any other part of them, they're still functioning, but without the head...



The only way to "kill" a zombie is to damage the brain. It's not like a chicken with it's head cut off, it doesn't keep moving. Cutting off the head is sure fire... but they can still bite. Shooting it in the head works... but if you can have a back-up close handed weapon that doens't require bullets... you would be well off (by close handed I mean a 12 foot sharp pole... I wouldn't want to get anywhere near them), But really and Axe, or Pipe, Swords. Knifes are usually usless for fight that close, because if they are that close your screwed some other way. If they even make a scratch with their finger your gone... or you already have an open wound and they touch it...

[Yugoloth]

Wal-Mart. Why?

There are guns. There is ammo. Pump-action shotguns, yeah baby. There are security gates, security cameras. There is food. There is a labyrinth of easily-fortifiable rooms in the back, where they have the office and the point-of-sale network servers. There's usually even a forklift, and there are those groovy wide-angle mirrors scattered around that let you see around corners.

Of course, clearing the staff would definitely suck if they were Dawn of the Dead remake-style zombies that were really fast, since the big 24-hour walmarts have dozens of people working even late at night. But if they were slow zombies, it would be a matter of making it to the gun section and then making it to the security room to lock the place down. The guy in the security room can see down almost every aisle, and he could use the intercom to direct armed people to any zombies still inside.

And it would be tons of fun, too, since going to Wal-Mart is half the late night entertainment around where I live anyway, except now you can take whatever the hell you want. Are there batteries in Wal-Mart? yes. Are there PSPs in Wal-Mart? yep. So even if the power goes out, you'd have hours of high-tech entertainment. And there are massive generators to keep the freezers running in case of power outage.

Getting rid of the zombies already inside would be the only problem. It would make for a sweet action sequence in a zombie movie though.

[Mystic Thunder]

true but you always have to watch out for the peole wh have been bitten and dont tell you. they cause the biggest problem.

Another good idea would be get to high ground like an apartment or something. only if you stock up though because it would suck ass to be stuck without food

[Guinness And Mohawks]

I'm not exactly sure what MAD is
MAD is the united states last line of defence against catastropic events. mutually assured destruction. it launches every nuclear weapon the country owns in a grid pattern across the earth, thus vaporizing all existance. it is a relic of the cold war, set that if the russians were to ever launch a nuke at D.C. it would wipe out everything in russia. now it has, at least to the articles i have read, been reconfigured to wipe out all exsistance. not sure if that aspect is true but it is a fun concept, and i want to push the "button", especially against zombies. and i retract my flame thrower comment, and replace it with some daisy cutters.

[Mystic Thunder]

but you might kill everyone else that wasnt infected

[Guinness And Mohawks]

not my problem, if zombies were rampaging, i would, i dont know build an under water city or something, and then do it. dont be so critical.

[~Angel RieS #7~]

i'm useless lol. i'd probably faint as soon as i hear they've invaded kuwait!
ok let me think more a bit.. errr.. i'd probably prepare my house against any attack. hehe. and burn them if they attack me! :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

[ueatpoo]

well being the most experienced person here i would have to say the safest place to go would be a library. a library you say? let me explain. first bookcases are great for blocking doorways and windows. second no one will ever suspect a library. there are also many many means of communication in libraries. books light on fire very easily this is a definite plus. and the main reason when all else fails most libraries have bomb shelters in the basement with stockpiles of food and supplies.

[Mystic Thunder]

true but getting to the library would be hard since you would have to through the streets. thats why you always need a weapon in hand. a good old trusting steel pipe. nothing better than that

Ha... most experianced my ass.... There is no food in a Library...
Wal-Mart is a first choice for too many people... It will get looted and left to rot my too many people.
What you need to know is that you have to have pre-determined sources. You need stockpiles ready for that attack, and a safe Bunker.

[psychoDiablo]

that'sw hy you have a Tank. just roll around town running everything over. flatten out the land so you can see for miles. no zombie can get too close for comfort.

or get on a boat/submarine and just nuke the shit out of the country. lol

you obviously didnt read the last sentence. libraries have bombshelters with lots of food. as for getting to the library that may prove a challenge. i say you pull a shawn of the dead and pretend to be a zombie and slowly make your way to the library.

[Tsunami]

If zombies attack Kuwait, most likely a Kuwaiti official would look at the US troops stationed there and say, "Hey! Go make yourselves useful and kill some zombies!"

I think the irritation in having to kill zombies would extend even to me. They'd probably start sending troops from Iraq to back them up.

Alright... first of all Shawn of the Dead... was incredibly inacurate when it comes to Zombies.... You can't pretend to be one. They can sense you.
I'm not sure about the bomb shelter thing.... I haven't ever heard that before.

[Zanahoria_Picante]

I'd force the zombies to watch endless hours of Bob Ross. They wouldn't stand a chance... :devious:

Um...some of you have suspiciously detailed plans regarding this "hypothetical" zombie attack. A bit suspect, if you ask me...

Yeah, well, i saw Dawn of the Dead then got really wasted and ended up wandering around Wal-Mart at 4am with a few friends of mine, and the conversation inexorably turned to zombies.

I also thought that the attic in my house would be a slick place to hide out if there was some way to get a lot of canned food up there fast. It runs all along under the apex of the roof for the entire house, and the entrance is a hole in the wall 9 feet off the floor in one room. It has to be accessed by stepladder, and zombies can't jump that high.

[ueatpoo]

well of course shawn of the dead was inaccurate but it was the greatest zombie movie ever(comedically speaking). well i know most libraries in the u.s. have shelters. the key to survival is to go to places where no one would expect to find food. for example churches usually have food pantrys for the homeless. but the homeless can now eat each other so they dont need food. ooh i just saw a commercial for land of the dead by the great george romero. looks awesome. so anyway greenhouses are great places to find supplies. forget the pickaxe and hoe grab some veggies if you can find any and any bags of fertilizer you can find (fertilizer to craft some makeshift dynamite) also insecticide canisters can be used to make an easy flamethrower. btw i watch too many movies.

[Mystic Thunder]

i'd got to a gas sation and gallons of petrol so when i get cornered i flame them all. I was driving with my brother today and we found this perfect area. its sorta on a hill and has a giant gate around it. it even has 2 watch towers

[ueatpoo]

gas is too heavy to carry you need lots of gas to burn zombies. go for explosives. however visit a uhaul. you can find gasoline and styrofoam peanuts and make some napalm.

They could make a human, er, zombie pyramid and come and get'cha that way. Zombie pyramids...that could prove pungent... :puzzled:

Putting the Bob Ross tactic aside, the best bet would be one of those "Super Walmarts." Firstly, there'd be plenty of supplies (i.e. food, water, spam, etc.). Secondly, the zombies wouldn't be able to find you. I mean, have you ever been in a super Wal-mart? They're huge!

Dramatization:

Herb the Zombie: "Uh, dude weren't they just in aisle 6?"
Eduaro the Zombie: "No, you idiot! That was aisle 6B!"
(Simultaneously, the humans casually saunter along eating fruit roll-ups, chortling at the Zombies' confusion)

I mean...I'd make them watch Bob Ross... :paranoid:

[Ziech]

Ok... first of all... Zombies can't jump. You are on the right track with the zombie pyramid, but unless they are dead on the floor they just mass together in a crowd. If you were killing them though then they would crawl/climb over each other.

Did you not read what I said?
Ok... let me be clear for everyone:
A superstore is the LAST place you want to go.
for those of you who don't get it:
A SUPERSTORE IS THE LAST PLACE YOU WANT TO GO.

Here is Why:
1. You can't honestly think that you are the only person who would go there. When zombies attack your town everyone will panic; looting of the superstores will take place. Lots of people will flock there to loot. Lots of Zombies will follow them.
2. Even if you managed to hide there, they can sense you within a radius.. I don't remember off hand what it is, but I will consult my Manual and tell you. Plus the other people people you decide to befriend might turn on you at any moment.
3. You cannot "outlast" a zombie. You have to kill them and get out. They will live until their very flesh rots off and the muscle structure can't function.

[Zanahoria_Picante]

Ok... first of all... Zombies can't jump. I'd really like to see some hardcore evidence for this. With the proper positive reinforcement (such as a chocolate bar) you can persuade anything, even a subborn zombie, to jump.

but I will consult my Manual and tell you. Wow...saying that this statement concerns me is an understandment. :paranoid:

I guess my dramatization had its flaws; there would be some issues, indeed, with using a superstore as a base of operations. It's an inadequate "zombie-evading facility" (ZEF).

Maybe a skyscraper would work. You could go to the floor with security, and be able to watch all entrances and prepare for each attack...

[Ziech]

Look... you may make a joke about Zombies. But what you don't realize is that they are a serious threat to our race. I take them seriously, and I have most of my plans in set during a real Zombie attack. If you chose to ignore the threat than you will probably become a Zombie.

[Zanahoria_Picante]

If you chose to ignore the threat than you will probably become a Zombie. Well...I think it's time I divulge the truth...

I'm a zombie.

Yes, yes I know what everyone thinks of my kind, but zombies are deeply misunderstood creatures. I've endured the onslaught of comments at the office...

"How can she have a job if she's dead?"
"Sorry, we don't allow 'grays/rotters' at this table."
etc, etc.

It ain't easy. Not being able to eat. Not getting inivited to any parties. People openly staring at my peeling flesh, as if I were on fire (as they might have it). Your hypothetical tactics for destroying zombies just kills me.

And, by the way...

I jump all the time.

Ha Ha very funny...
It's honestly an insult to me that you would joke about such a thing that you know apparently nothing about. You obviously need to check your sources about Zombies because your wrong.
Look.
A Zombie is only animated because a virus has taken over the brain. Because the virus is primitive in thought it only has the most basic of needs. Food. that's it. If you want to joke about Zombies... there is a Jokes and Comedy section...

The problem with using your attic as a hideaway of sorts is that if the zombies do manage to penetrate it (via a zombie pyramid or what not), you'd be trapped. You'd be overwhelmed and subsequently "zombie-fied." Also, you can only store so many supplies there as well. It's cramped which is not only bad for the morale of your comrades (if any are present) but it's physically wearing as well. Perhaps it would be easy to create a defensive stance in there, but it would be temporary. They'd find a way in.

It's quite large - 5 feet tall and almost 40 feet long. There are lights, ventilation, and the entrance can be sealed with a fiberglass plug that fits flush with the wall. There are even boxes of books. As a last resort, the vents on the top can be kicked open and used to escape onto the roof.

Besides, even in the event of, y'know, olypmic high-jumper zombies, there is always my shotgun. And not everyone can be a winner. Not even olympic zombies.

Well, now ya see that's a different story. It seems you have a well-fortified, zombie-dispelling base of operations going down there. Nice.

Besides, even in the event of, y'know, olypmic high-jumper zombies, there is always my shotgun. And not everyone can be a winner. Not even olympic zombies. The zombie olymics! Now that would be a sight to see! Though, I imagine that the swimming events could prove quite gruesome...for many reasons. *shutters at the thought*

[ueatpoo]

shotguns are a good start but too slow for zombies. i would prefer a .357 magnum. six shots but each shot is like a shotgun blast. a bit quicker to reload. and to make things clear lets classify zombies. we have night of the living dead or "classic zombies" slow not too bright can definetly not jump. then we have the fast zombies that look more like angry lepers. they cant really jump its more of a leap. its no regular leap either their death has given them the ability to jump long distances.

[luminire]

playing Silent Hill, eh!? well i'd just get some blade knuckles and wander around, saving people... i guess. but seriously, it would be uber cool if that happened, if zombie's start invading Kuwait! XD

The zombie olymics! Now that would be a sight to see! Though, I imagine that the swimming events could prove quite gruesome...for many reasons. *shutters at the thought*
Yeah, my uncle was a zombie. He was an excellent distance runner (for a zombie), but he couldn't make the cut for the '76 Zombie Olympics. So he pretended to be retarded so he could get into the special olympics. He got his pants kicked off though - turns out even a deaf kid with Down syndrome can still outrun a zombie. That gives us hope.

[Zanahoria_Picante]

its no regular leap either their death has given them the ability to jump long distances. Oh, what's that? A jumping zombie? That's impossible! Time to let this go. Oh well...

A shotgun would be efficient in the sense that it invokes some severe damage. You obviously can't kill a zombie, so your goal then becomes to incapacitate them by rendering them immobile. In other words, blow them to bits. Though, a .357 magnum might be preferable in that it's easier to handle, less cumbersome, and has more ammunition. *shrugs*

If it were me, however, I'd like to have me one of those mini-guns. One of those beasts would kick some serious zombie behind. Or maybe get myself a sniper rifle and perch atop a building and snipe 'em that way. Hmmm...many approaches to the zombie conundrum...

No more Halo 2 for me...*sigh*
