A zombie plan? I don't have a zombie plan. I have THIRTY-SEVEN of them! And the first thirty-six involve using your delicious body as bait...
Given that I have prepared for a nuclear war LONGER than I have been a gamer...
Radio announces Zombie Attack.
Step One - I call the other main member of our gaming group and tell him to muster the airsoft team at my place. This has, actually, been discussed w/ the team. Orders will be as follows - "If you have it, bring it. Don't stop for anything." We have a distressingly high number of young military-trained gamers and airsofters handy, male and female alike. :D
Step Two - As an ordained minister and a former Marine, I am emminently qualified to step into the armory and cast an area Bless Weapon on everything - and then use it.
Step Three - in proper military fashion, inspect incoming airsoft team for signs of zombie bite BEFORE allowing them in.
Step Four - Everyone goes armed. EVERYone, ALWAYS. Limited leaving the farm to vitally essential missions. Leave in teams, carry radios and extra batteries. Avoid population centers.
Zombies never attack farms. Never. Heck, the braindead *living* have trouble finding us where we are. I have essentially all the supplies of a rural hospital (double-checked by an EMT/ambulance driver *and* a surgitech-nurse), enough weapons and ammo to take over a third-world country, *AND* livestock!!
Yes, I'm 100% serious. Yes, I've thought this through a time or ... two.
Is a Red Vs Blue cartoon done with one of the Halo games. Really effing funny.

So if someone is bitten... what are you going to do?
Crowbar for me, too. Functional, fairly light, decent reach and pretty effective if you know exactly how to swing it. Plus, Goodwill prepared me for using it effectively.
But I hate it so when my crowbar gets stuck in zombie skull...

Makes a lovely 'POK!' noise when it happens though! :)

My best friend in Gainesville, Fl was hanging out with these artsy drama kids or something, and they put on a live reenactment of Night of the Living Dead in this park downtown. So I was a zombie extra.It's a pretty easy acting job. Just act real hungover.
You lucky dog! You got to play a zombie? Cool.

Isolation and observation. After all, if they are strong enough to resist the infection, we FOR SURE want their genes added to the gene-pool to repopulate the world! If, however, they turn into flesheaters, they get the regular zombie treatment.
Shoot them in the face imedeatly!So if someone is bitten... what are you going to do?Step Three - in proper military fashion, inspect incoming airsoft team for signs of zombie bite BEFORE allowing them in.
That, of course, IS the standard zombie treatment. So, if they fight off the zombie infection, we all win - if not, buckshot to the FACE, baby!

Sure, a katana or great axe would kill a zombie. But think about it. What do zombies do in combat? Grapple! They try to grab and bite you. What you need is a light weapon that still has the heft to penetrate the skull. What you need is a parang or kukri. Not only can it be used to chop up zombie skulls, but it is an excellent survival tool.
If you are traveling on foot in zombie territory you will need:
[list]
How many people here read The Walking Dead comic book?
How many people here read The Walking Dead comic book?
I came across of it in Barns and Noble once and read parts of it when that guy wakes up from a hospital and everyone is zombies... is that the one?
equipment:
-Pancor Jackhammer automatic shotgun
-desert eagle backup
-heavy crossbow for solitary targets (reuseable ammo)
-fireaxe (light, durable, multi-use)
-many matches
-first-aid kit
as a base:
-boat it to an aircraft carrier (large, armories included, huge amounts of supplies, if one knew how to they could fly jets for recon and transport.
if one wasn't available:
-"camp out" in the second story of a country farm with no ladder; after two months drive to a major city, the zombies will have left by then and if they haven't it means that there is still human life in the area for backup.

I'd say your ready for anything!
I forgot to add some things:
- 3 first aid kits
- 300 feet of rope
- mosquito netting
- portable generator
- 2 fire extinguishers
- crowbar
- hacksaw
- bow saw
Might I inquire about the reason(s) for you to posess all that gear??
Oh and yeah, what is an Arkansas Thootpick? I am from Montreal up in Canada and I really can't even guess at what that thing is.
You forgot toilet paper!
Oh and yeah, what is an Arkansas Thootpick?
It is a knife. Similar to Bowie.
I am assuming 1 weapon, and 1 location no contingencies. And anything goes.
Weapon of choice - dynamite
Location to hole up - morgue
Come on... All you bait people will keep the zombies far from my hiding place.

Arkansas Toothpick =
A 12-15 inch-long dagger used by the pioneers in the southern United States. It has a long, heavy, triangular blade, a full tang, wide crossguard, and a heavy handle, usually made of wood, bone, or animal horn.

I don't know where in the States you live, but do you have any good sites to recomend for debutant backpacker?
To be back to the topic. I once was attacked by a Zombie. I was in a bar and a really drunk, I mean REALLY drunk guy comes to me in the traditional Zombie walk while muttering some uniteligible gibberish. The guys stops just in front of me and try to ''firm embrace'' me. I manage to break the grapple and tell the guy that I am not the person he think's I am and send him out into the crowd. Just after that, I thought that it crossed my mind that I made my turn undead check and felt a bit geek to be thinking that.
Cheers !

I live in Ticonderoga, NY, which is on the eastern edge of the Adirondack State Park. A lot of good places to backpack are in Canada, though. In particular, Algonquin Provincial Park and LaVerendrye Provincial Park immediately come to mind.
