Opinions?

You have no way out. What do you guys think? Pretty cool if you ask me! I would say Muay Thai and judo. Muay Thai because you have the Thai clinch (not just the plum) which you could use to sweep and move the zombies around and judo to throw and sweep the zombie. Then once you thrown or sweep the zombie you could stomp it. You would also have the kicks which would come in handy. Let me know what you guys think!

someone on board is infected, but you don’t know who, and they don’t know they’re infected until symptoms start, but theyre contagious. your a good 75 miles off the nearest land, and you learned about it via your phone alert. everyone else knows too, and the captain decided to not go back to port. whatre you doing?

If you found yourself in Los Angeles or Chicago for example and a zombie outbreak had started around the world not just in the USA.

(You have around 500 active duty police officers because everyone else had abandoned their post)

You are a chef of police in ( major city name ) and unknown acts of violence are spreading all around the city you're in charge of protecting.

After a few days the government declared a state of emergency and the active of national guards and federal forces helped maintain order around the country.By time everyone else saw what was happening majorty of your officer quite or simply abandoned their post

Before national guard soldiers or federal military can go in. Your job is to help maintain order in the city and you have few options.

. Ditch city and go with your family

. Try to maintain order around the city as a whole

. Only protect overpopulated areas from infected

.only protect important infrastructure ( hospitals,court House, jails and ect

. Secured highways and roads to let the military in smoothly and let them deal with infection.

. Hold up and barricade in the remaining police station that your officer has under control

Edit : make things more simple in the city on what happening riots have started but after a few hours police noticed that rioters are actually eating and attacking anyone they see. After the first day of this the Government issues an emergency active all military forces national and federal military and if the state has it a state guard force too. Now your officers have abandoned only 500 remain loyal and it's your job to keep this infection from killing even more people but you might question yourself if the city is worth saving

You are at a meeting on the 12th floor of a typical office building in a major city meeting an attorney about an inheritance when you get the news. This is the attorney for the estate. You just met him in person today. Some uncle you never met had a pretty big inheritance for you. No use now...

The city (million population plus) is the nearest city to your house of the size. You are downtown. You have your spouse with you.

Everyone's phone goes off. By the time you go to the window to look you see the carnage rampaging down the street.

What is your plan???

I think a Hardware store would be the worst, everybody is going to want that place's supplies. The last thing you want is a place where a bunch of people are going to go.

I feel like everyone forgets that women bleed every 3 to 4 weeks.

This would make it difficult for us woman seen we would have to scavenge for them, meaning we would have less space for food or water, and if we think zombies could be attracted by the smell of blood... it would be quite dangerous.

Personally, I like the idea of distracting zombies by throwing used tampons 😅

So, I started reading the The Walking Dead comics, and I just got to the part where>!Dale get bitten on the leg!<. After that, I started thinking, would be better to be missing foot or a hand? What would u guys prefer?

So my question is would it be a good idea to where if you have a big group of people to assign a certain role like a scout or a scavenger to go around and Mark areas would like glow sticks spray paint or anything they can use the paint on the walls with that signify danger what is safe and what is not is that a good idea

I am a dog person to heart, but in my opinion cats would be a better pet and more useful in a Z apocalypse. They can hunt their own good, my barn cats keep field mice at bay and have killed at least one snake that I've seen, and less loud. Which would you prefer or would you want both.

The thing about horse and donkeys is that both are extremely useful, but I've only got a little experience with horses and almost none with donkeys. I have access to a horse plow that my great grandfather used with some straps in a garage. Which would be better for farming?

The pressure wave and thermal injuries would have major effects, there just isn't enough nukes to use it as a zombie killing bomb.

Fallout might kill some microbes in the zombie. Would nuclear weapons be effective against a large zombie horde?

I've seen a lot of top 10 lists on the internet that will put shotguns and rifles at number 10 and 9. and the rest of the list is just a bunch of melee weapons that you would need to get super close to the zombies to use on them, and to me that is just silly. I get the guns can run out of ammo, but I'd much rather have to worry about running out of ammunition, then have to worry about getting bit by them easily when trying to bash the brains in with a baseball bat.

How Urban is your setting?

1. Center of a huge City.
2. Suburb to a huge city.
3. Medium city (100,000 population prior),
4. Small City (30,000 population prior),
5. Town (5,000 population prior),
6. Village (1,000 population prior),
7. Rural - out on your own
8. Or something else?
