Hello this is a blog post about the numerous ways your can survive a zombie apocalypse. There are many ways to go about this. First thing that you’re going to need is a weapon obviously. Secondly, you’re going to need a place to defend such as a house, barn, or castle. Thirdly, you may need some form of transportation to get food and whatnot.
First and most important is the weapon. Now, preferably this is going to be a gun. Sub machines guns are the best for mobility and they are also fully automatic. If you can get your hands on one of these puppies that would be a great idea. However, this is not even close to your best option when it comes to taking zombies down. That would be either a shotgun or the light machine gun. A shotgun is great for when you are in close quarters with zombies crawling all over. A simple shot will kill most zombies unless they are extremely strong. Many types of shotguns are available as well, including the pump action and the semi auto. The pump action shotgun will take a little more time to fire repeated shots because of the “pump” you have to do in between the two shots. That’s why the semi auto is such a better option. Would you rather be able to fire off two quick shots instead of having to pump inbetween? Of course you would. What if you miss? That could be the difference between dying that day and starting civilization off again somewhere else.
That brings us to possibly the best option for taking down zombies in large amounts, the light machine gun. These come in many different types but typically you will be able to shoot off 150 rounds in a row without reloading. This is great if you are looking out a window with many zombies running at you. However, it may be a little overkill with just one zombie. If you would prefer to take out multiple zombies with one, high explosive round, I would recommend the RPG or bazooka. Also known as the Rocket Propelled Grenade, this little guy is best known for taking out helicopters and tanks. However, a zombie can’t drive a tank and it would be downright scary if it could. If you fire one of these grenades into a large group of zombies you’re going to take out quite a few. This will definitely help if your friends have a some small arms and can then pick them off one by one. You should never waste a RPG round on a small group of zombies. That is just a terrible waste of ammunition and money. (Wait you don’t need money anymore)
The next thing you’re going to want to think of is a place to call your home. This place will be defended at all times and must never be overrun because one this is overrun, you’re going to have to find a place that is much less familiar than your home base. You are going to want many higher up windows, so you can get the vantage point on the zombies from up top. A very important part of warfare is who has the high ground because it is much easier to fire down on somebody than to fire up at them. This is especially true with zombies. A zombie is going to be much, much easier to fire at if you have the high ground. (They will also be a lot less intimidating as well!) As always, escape routes are a must. If you began to get overran, you better find yourself a way out. A great way to get out is a trapdoor that leads to outside. The zombies will be very confused when you pull up that door and disappear. This is will give you ample time to get out and escape, and hopefully you will have an escape vehicle. An escape vehicle is not necessary, but it will play in an important role in your zombie apocalypse experience nonetheless.
If you have no vehicle and limited supply of ammo, you are for sure screwed. There is literally no way around getting out of the zombies hands. Eventually they will overrun you because they simply don’t get tired. You on the other hand will get very tired running away from shrieking zombies. Unless you are running to place with more ammo, you will get eaten. That is a FACT. So make sure you have at least some sort of vehicle, you can even have a bike, I don’t really care. Just as long as you aren’t trying to run away.
If you happen to have a car, make sure the trunk is filled with nothing but extra fuel and ammo. Valuable space cannot be taken up something such as food or water. Food and water will need to be put in the back seat. If there are people back there put it on their laps and just be sure it doesn’t get in the way of their aiming. As far as type of car goes, obviously you’re going to probably want an SUV. These things will destroy any zombie in their path and take care of any space issue. In reality, a hummer will probably be your best bet.
Whatever you do, do NOT try to take your care through the car wash. This was evidenced in the movie The Crazies when they went through the car wash that was inhabited by zombies. Three people went in and two people came out. Is that what you want to happen to you? Didn’t think so.
In conclusion, I have given you just a glimpse of how to survive when the zombies attack. There are many rules to follow but sometimes you just have to improvise to win. And believe me, in this game, winning is living. And living is fun when you get to gun down zombies all day.
