What would you do when the zombies attack? Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Let's say a horrible B movie script became reality and the world is being over run by nasty rotting zombies intent on killing human beings. What would you do? Where would you go and who would you take with you? These things must be considered carefully or else you could end up as a meal for a zombie or worse yet a zombie yourself.

I know what I'd do; I'd gather my best mates and a few hot chicks then go down to the local big box warehouse store where I'd barackade myself in. Think about it. Those warehouse stores only have two entrences and both have those metal roll down gates so the place would be easy to seal off. Inside that Walmart/Kmart/whatever there'd be guns, ammo, plenty of food, camping gear, bottled water, medicine, and plenty of magazines to read. The place is also pretty big so if you want to go have a **** with one of those sexy ladies you saved from the zombies (that always happens in the movies) then you could. Is that a good plan? What would you do?

My friend and I had this exact same conversation and we realised that we'd be dead within the first twenty minutes of a zombie outbreak.

Flee to some place like Easter Island that's very very very far away from land.

I would try to gather my closest friends together who I trust and who are badasses also, and then we'd take easily defendable point, with good opportunities to flee if necessary. We won't take a stronghold per se, we need to keep moving. First thing.. break into gun store, get some really nice weaponry. Get all the food etc, few new cars, a truck, stuff like that. Then break into hospital and get some medicine, drugs and tools if we need them later on. And then onwards, to the first defending point. I'll personally have a shotgun, because I like to get physical like that.

I bet all those stories about zombies being creatures of teh evil are just lies spread by the anti-zombiist conspiracy.

I would hide behind Pekka but for some reason I think Pekka will meet a horrible death at the hands of the zombies. (after he fought bravely of course). So it will be just me and the girl. Must be because Pekka is the "muscular" type you know and in the movies they are the ones who are sacrificed with valour to let the skinny protagonist flee with the girl.

The chances of anyone, no matter how well armed and supplied, surviving a Level Three outbreak is minimal. At most, you only delay your death.

Zombies do not get tired, sleep, feel pain, get afraid, panic, hesitate, or any of the things that a person does. It takes just one mistake to end up zombie munchies.

Fleeing to space would work even better, except it'd be a bit more difficult.

Shotguns are good. Not only do they pack a punch but if you run out of ammo you still have a club to beat the zombies with as you are being over run.

A good idea also might be to look and act like a zombie so that they think you're a friendly zombie as well.

Yes. I can see how a slow death of starvation and asphyxiation after many many months of mind shattering isolation is preferable over being eaten.

Barely. Just barely.

I suppose he is undead so he could walk along the ocean's floor. If he knew you were there on the island that is.

You'd still die quicker unless 1) you actually knew anything about what you where doing, and 2) there was still a fully staffed HQ on earth.

Do zombies actually lurch around slowly, or is that just a racist stereotype perpetuated by zombie-haters? Also, can they really dance like they do in the Thriller video, or are they more into ballroom?

I think some normally they're slow, but some are genetically improved to be faster.

If there's nowhere to run they will start moving very very slow towards you.
