    Scenario 1: Massive hoard of zombies creeping my way

    Weapon of choice: pistol

    Strategy: shoot weakest guy/girl in my group in the knees and run like hell

    Scenario 2: Small cohort of zombies creeping my way (I am alone)

    Weapon of choice: mace or other heavy but not too heavy melee weapon

    Strategy: Coerce zombies into a bottleneck. Knock them off with head-blows one by one. The bodies falling will form a barrier and allow me to regroup after each blow.

    Scenario 3: Small cohort of zombies at a distance

    Weapon of choice: silenced sniper rifle

    Strategy: strategically knock off zombies from a distance. Take bets from fellow survivors on how many I can hit with a single shot. I am very very good with long ranged weapons.

    Scenario 4: Large hoarde of zombies at a distance

    Weapon of choice: fully automatic rifle (not a shotgun)

    Strategy: Knock off as many as possible. Try to form a barrier of bodies to slow them down. If they get too close, see Scenario 1.

    I'd take off my top to mesmerize them, then get out the old handcuffs, use them as knuckle dusters, one punch pierces the brain!
    BADASS!!!

    I would throw pineapples at their faces. And if this didn't work/I run out, I'll just flash them and try to mesmerize them with my boobies!!

    Def a machete or baseball bat as you don't have to reload them. Yes, that would mean having to be in close contact with them, but both can be a very effective weapon.

    I love this thread!!!!

    <---- Katana swords on my back, because I travel light and move fast. I'll be running and looking for other well-armed zombie fighters, especially others that share my mad ninja skills.
  • i just have to run faster than the slowest guy, right?

    Diplomacy is my strongest quality, followed by running. And if all else fails, gimme a Claymore. They'll never take my freeeeeedom!

    You can't reason with the undead people!
  • Daryl, from The Walking Dead. He has sooooo many good uses...oh and he's kick booty at killing the Zombies too.

    That war hammer would be a good choice. You can deliver a piercing blow or a crushing blow. Sometimes you dont want something that will stick in the zombie's head. If there's a lot of zombies around, you will be overpowered while trying to remove it from the first zombie you kill.

    A good sharp sword would probably be my second choice.

    If the resupply wasn't an issue, I'd go for a good full-size pistol or submachine gun.

    Of course I would be traveling in a titanium hamster ball, so I probably wouldn't need any weapons except for when I got out of the ball to eat or poop.

    My fists. The left one I call 'sudden death'. The right one...well that son-of-a-***** even scares me.

    Here's my choice- halligan tool... good for opening doors and splitting zombie heads.

    A must have for every serious zombie apocalypse survival enthusiast! It allows for multiple practical uses as well as dispatching the unfortunate undead.

    The Crovel is also a solid choice.

    Nice. I must find one. I have a machete already and several baseball bats. I prefer wooden. Nothing like the crack of a wooden bat.

    Situation? Type of zombie?

    If they were fast and traveled in packs I'd go for a sawed-off halberd - that crovel also looked sweet.

    Thinking of items I have here now, I'd grab my Grandpa's weeder:
    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS3Z4TU_vj52VW8ccVWmcaT5x5Ase7gHeWr13JLLjrAhXduoQN_4Q

    Slower or singles? A spear and an atlatl. We got to practice with one during a nature outing and I think I could do well (speared a fake buffalo at 150 yards :)

    Slow Shambling types?

    Of course. It's a terrific How-To manual. :tongue:

    It's an absolutely great drama and soap opera for men. As far as a how to manual...perhaps a cautionary tale of generally what NOT to do. How has that band of emotionally driven, hypersensitive, idiots managed to survive this far when everything else has fallen? Oh yeah, it's fiction!

    For you katana folks, realize that those are pretty delicate. You want something you can BASH with. :D
