If an actual zombie outbreak were to occur, my plan would be to hit the sticks. I wouldn’t stay in a highly populated area.
I would need a vehicle, something sturdy and that can withstand more than city streets. Something like a four wheel drive, maybe an army truck, if I could get my hands on that. A closed jeep might be good. It needs to have room and power. I’d also like something that doesn’t have too many windows.
I’d bring along supplies like canned food, or other stuff that takes a while to go bad. Raid a store if I get a chance. I won’t be picky. Things like beans, granola bars, anything that lasts a while. Of course, I would take things like meat and veggies. I’d make sure to eat those first. Plenty of water too.
Basic medical supplies. Bandages of all sizes, peroxide, rubbing alcohol, cold and hot packs. Anything to treat small and large cuts, as well as bruises. Hopefully I don’t break anything. I’d also bring what I can for fevers and colds. Also, a toothbrush and toothpaste. The last thing you want during a zombie invasion is a cavity that kicks your ass constantly.
A rope. I don’t know why, but always bring a rope. A lighter. Several of them. A good, sturdy knife. A hammer and a fireman’s axe. These tools would be used for plenty of purposes, such as breaking into places, and substituting them for things I don’t have but would probbaly need. (both in my escape and living in the woods)
I would also bring plenty of extra gasoline for my ride.
Of course, I’d need weapons. Firearms would be best, although I’ve never used any before. Given the scenario, I think I could learn fast enough, hopefully without blowing my foot off or something. I’d need something highly destructive, like a sawed off shotgun or a machine gun. Learning to aim for the head might take a long time, and a long time I probably wouldn’t have. (but I would still bring a few handguns and riffles anyways) Blowing zombies to chunks or riddling them in half might not always kill them, but it would greatly halt their advance on me as I moved on. But this would be used sparingly, as I can’t lug around crates of ammo with me.
And the obligatory melee weapon.
Preferably something blunt, like a crowbar or metal pipe. (preferably something with a rubber grip) A machete or something like that is stylish, but in reality, you might find yourself quite fucked trying to yank out your blade from a zombie’s skull while a whole pack is swarming you.
Explosives might be a good idea. Dynamite, molotov cocktails. These would come in quite handy when needing to clear out a way forward, or messing up a huge pack of zombies behind you, especially in the city, where I’d have to maneuver my vehicle slowly and carefully in lots of places. Extra caution when using explosives would, obviously, need to be taken.
Having a working radio of some kind would be useful, in order to keep up with the events, if indeed, there’s people still covering it. But that’s optional. I’m basing this scenario on the idea that all is, definitely, fucked.
This is all stuff for the trip. In a given zombie scenario, I find that barricading yourself and trying to survive can be highly hazardous to your life. This is survival. No matter how good my defenses are, things will eventually run out, and the dead shall have my ass. My only hope to survive is to escape. Too many zombies.
When I find a place in deep nature, my next step would be to learn how to live off the land. Hopefully I can learn quickly. My vehicle would serve as shelter at first, and I’d maintain it as long as I could with what I have. Everything I brought for my trip would also be used in any way it could. My handguns and riffles would be good in starting out to get food. I’d have to be 100% sure to find a place where I know no zombies will show up, or at least very little. I suppose I could live the rest of my life in the Carpathians or something.
Sorry Wundy. XD But you can come with me. In fact, if this did happen, I’d team up with a few people to make things easier. But only people I know I can trust, and only a handful. Too large a group would greatly slow us down. However, while starting a new life in some forest, it would probably be ideal to have a large group. (considering people wouldn’t go crazy or pull off some classic zombie movie cliché where they become more dangerous than any zombie) Increase the chances of survival, as well as expending the spectrum of skills all the people could have and put to good use.
