Scenario 5: City centre

Ginja Ninja

So, you were out shopping in the sales.When you decide to head home you realise you haven't seen a bus in a quite a while.

As you start to look around frustrated you see three blood covered males in shirt that are half torn off,with a bite in each of their neck shabling down towards you.

What do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO?

Rule #1 Cardio lol

Nah realisticly I would be prepared and home in on my ninja like skills and kill those mother fokers.

Since its the sales I've been restocking my Z day supplies it just so happens I bought a brand new shiny lump hammer and Katana.

Utilising Rule #1 I would run away and ensure I was attacking from behind. While they shuffle down the road i would sneak up behind them. Bludgen one in the back of the head and decapitate the rest. I would then take all 3 heads and tie them to my belt so boardsies know who I am for starters.

From there I would make my way home and inact my 24hr response. Slashing and gashing as many fatties and junkies that came my way (might as well have some craic before the end of days is upon us). Once home plan A would be put in place...

Then as you feel a painful gnawing below your waistline, you remember that you only decapitated the other two and because there was no massive brain trauma, they are still well able to bite.

Broad day light and shamblers?
No weapons to hand?

Run

Evade and survive is the order of the day. Get clear of the area and somewhere high up if possible.

Switch on radio stations and monitor net through phone for any data.

If they are down assume a large scale breakout is already underway meaning the traffic is going to be nothing but a large collection of canned food for the Zombies.

Take a bike from the Dublin city bikes (Knew theyd be good for something) or anything bike that is "available". and head west out of the city centre as quickly as possible avoiding the quays as if my life depended on it. I know the terrain by bike west of the city like the back of my hand. It would be my best option.

Erm you're making an assumption that the head will survive. there's no evidence to say that will be the case Suppose if I were to notice them still chomping away naturally i would bludgen them to ensure they are no longer biting.

Mind you throw on some leather pants or biker kevlar and it'd make a pretty cool belt accessory.

Yep I am assuming that, but my assumption is based on the lore created by Romero and Brooks.

Hang on your belt if you like, my tactic will be to be happy with a good headshot of enough trauma to the head to destroy the brain. Shall not be carrying the smelly sods along on my belt....just in case.

Look on the brightside though, if one of your belt hangers were to bite you, you can count on me to pop a bullet in your head afterwards.

_SONIC_

id just run!! get away from them and back on home ground! then i fight on my own terms!!:cool::cool:

Is it not a bit dangerous to be carrying infected material around with you?

Connacht high command. *salutes*

It's unlikely that Zday will sneak up on us Irish IMO. We don't create new diseases, we don't have the population density or wildlife to allow for such things to happen. For that reason I think it's unlikely I'd go anywhere near a city if there's even a possibility that there'd be Zombies.

Any city plan must have fleeing at the top of the agenda. There's just no salvation in such a densely populated area.

Ginja Ninja

mostly true,but I can't help but feel worried as here in UCD we have one of the top virus research centres in europe,worrying much?

I cant help but read this and think

"Ireland is different.. The fundamentals are different etc etc etc.."

Umm, slightly. On the plus side we have an inside mole. I honestly don't know what to think I knew research was going on in Ireland and given our begorah, no harm to anyone, you could literally get away with anything in this country.

This is my pet peeve. Ireland is different, very different. We're an island a 1st world island, they're very, very rare. We're uniquely set up to deal with just about any scenario.

Unless its economic

My point is we shouldnt let our advantageous position cloud our thinking and lull us into a false sense of security.

True, but at the same time allot of people seem to be basing their plans around American problems.

Well what would I do in such an event! I'd loot every hardware store in town for useful equipment, ie Axe, Axe handle, Sledge hammers, shovels and ropes etc!!!! Also looting for the essential like medical first aid, large quantities of water and non perishable foot and the usual requirements in case of sickness that may arise.

The plan of attack would to have a vehicle that can withstand a beating while capable of carrying people and the essentials. Next port of call would be to round up the closest family and find an area to fortify while long term plans are made in which case all morals may get thrown out the window!

Realistically, I don't just think this would apply to a fictional zombie survival scenario. Events like disasters and civil war spring to mind where I would be very intent on looking out for number and family, while acquiring all of the above to ensure I have the oppurtunity to survive!
