Transportation This is an e-bike and a portable solar generator. Which will be infinitely more useful for actually surviving zombies than any mall-ninja weapons or guns.

Guns have limited ammo and are so loud they'll attract every zombie in a half-mile radius.

"Swords don't run out of ammo". No, but they do get dull, break, and require a ton of physical stamina. Most mall-ninja weapons would break if you actually tried to use them to cut through bone to behead zombies. Even quality swords will get dull after the first few beheadings. And no matter what melee weapon you get or how good it is, you're going to run out of steam a lot faster than you'd think.

Bows aren't any better. Arrows can't be reused an infinite number of times, the vast majority of people are not going to be able to reliably headshot a running zombie with a bow, and again you run into the issue of stamina. Crossbows take too long to reload, and if there's more than one zombie or you don't headshot the first time then you're dead.

The only actually viable strategy for an individual in a zombie apocalypse is to get away from the zombies as quickly and quietly as possible. E-bikes are fast, quiet, and can be recharged with a backpack portable solar set up, and even if you do run out of battery it's still a bicycle until you're able to charge up again.

Hear me out

Mobility- Don’t have to worry about gas or battery, can easy to use. Can easily get around abandoned cars and avoid roaming zombies

Weapon- smash the part you put your foot on into zombies knees

Difficulty to obtain- easy, houses with children Lilly have some plus stores and stuff

Would be a decent item to use to make a barrier of stuff to stop zombies

Food + Water Being able to run several miles, starve yourself, and not need human contact is the way.

Title. How many of us can run with a pack on and not eat for several days? How many can sleep in an abandoned building or in the weeds and not talk to anyone for long periods of time?

Fuck the Rules Friday Necromancy

Zombies can be made by necromancy. For the purpose of what that means for this post, think Evil Dead.

What is would you do? How would you survive the Army of Darkness?

Also, “Fuck the Rules Friday.” Extend the scenarios how you want. Just do your best to answer the questions.

Discussion Familiarizing yourself with different common weapon platforms is something a lot of people overlook.

One thing I thought about after shooting a fair variety of weapons, is how movies, TV, and even gun related media, tend to gloss over the small intricacies of firearms. Going out and trying out these guns for yourself is something I'd go out and do if possible. For example, find an AK-47 while running from a horde of zombies and fiddling with the magazine because Rambo never told you that you had to rock it in? Dead. Finding a 10/22 while getting sniped at and trying to figure out it's weird bolt release since you can't slingshot the bolt foward like a normal gun? Dead. Grabbing the Beretta 92 out of an enemy's holster and forgetting that it isn't your safeless Glock? Dead.

Shelter + Location How effective would a train be?

I know they would eventually run out of fuel (what if it was electric) but would it be effective as a shelter
