Are you prepared for zombie apocalypse?

Compared to a zombie brain?

 

That's not the point, the disease has to co-opt and control a fully functional human brain and turn it into a zombie brain.

[flamingjimmy 10]

Ah I knew you'd find that, but I think personally it'd be a case of how we react and how fast we do it. The above presumes that we'd react accordingly and kill zombies in the early stages.

If zombies took over and wiped us out, yes they'd not last for long either. But still, we'd be wiped out.

 

Absolutely no way would we be wiped out. Even if you are right and think that the zombies will overwhelm us (which I do not agree with) there would doubtless be survivors in pockets all over the world, and like you said, the zombies would not last long. If it did come down to it it would simply be a case of waiting a few weeks for them to starve and then getting down to some serious re-population action.

As I seem to be the most prepared on here I extend an invitation to any and all females who wish to "survive" with me

Ok another question, how far back in time would the zombies go back? What i mean is would we have cave men type zombies or egyptian mummys trying to turn us in to mincemeat or would it be just the recent undead? which ever I am in trouble cos i live 5 mins from a huge cematary lol

 

Hmm time travelling zombis, dint think of that

Well

 

My armoury is well stocked for when we're invaded by Zombie mice or rats but not humans (they could be used as clubs I s'ppose:hihi: )

 

It's not true that Zombies are quick- How can they be with Rigor Mortice??

That's assuming they are re-animated dead. If it's a disease, you might have a quick surprise

Actually, several of those can be modified fairly easily to be more than effective at killing human zombies. The Gunpower Stealth on the end is the easiest, the conversion takes a few minutes.

I'd rather stay on the right side of the law and keep the below 12ft lbs muzzle energy, airguns tend to become harsh to shoot when they are 'turned up', but seeing how you knew that gun was a Stealth- I reckon you probably know that;)

 

BTW, The Career has more potential for upping the power than the Stealth, you probably know that in 22cal, these can perform at 80ft lbs ME with a full charge, with a 45cal barrel, they are good for 250ft lbs, there plenty of them in the US but it's a bit barmy as you get extremely few shots per charge...

 

I much prefer the smoothness of the lower power output:D

[biggsy 10]

Hmmm- I only just realised that you can't actually see the Career for the slings of the Huntsman and HW80...

 

It's here

I don't think airgun laws will apply in the event of a zombie apocalypse!

Which raises the point I tried to make to flammingjimmey. How long into the 'infection period' would it be before you stopped obeying the law?

Using Rabies as an example, If a rabid human walked into your work premises incoherent and drooling, how many people would end up getting bitten before the rabid individual was subdued? Initially there would be attempts to subdue rather than 'kill' how many would be infected before the penny dropped? Politicians would absolutely do their level best to hide/quash any reports, I suspect within hours/days the internet would 'fail'. The politicians do not want the routes in and out of cities clogged with 'plebs' stopping them from escaping. Added to which the bottlenecks would make transmission rates rocket. Remember the difference between your average joe and a sheep is a wool jumper!

When did you make that point to me?

approximately 0.

?!? Why? What possible motive would they have? they'd want to stop the spread just as much as anyone else, it would increase their chances of survival. This just seems like paranoia to me.
