Default whats your style going to be?

ok when it comes down to zombies or the rebel people(think of dotd 78)

would you want to be guns a blazin and loud with more people who are equally the same, clumsy/dumb with no tactical inteligence but with guns and alot of people, or quiet/stealthy with little or no gun usage(cloak and dagger ideal)


i would want the cloack and dagger ideal....in fact i dont plan on even getting a gun after the outbreak...well...maybe a rifle...

Seems we're all voting the same here. We all know we'd band together and join up as a small group, though. That's the way all the "indepedents" did it when we played HVZ on campus. The guys who tried to do everything on their own got killed quick.

I would have a small group, and seeing that I don't know many people with guns besides my family, I would probably be more in tune with a baseball bat than a 6 shooter revolver. We would gather supplies and try to stay away from big areas while finding a suitible location for safety. Although I don't really care for the "cloak & dagger" tactic. If I want to blow something up, I'm gonna blow something up! I didn't call myself The Master of Disaster for nothing!

My guess is I'd be what I'd have to be.

I'd probably start alone, find a small group of capable people ASAP, and if there's a possibility to eventually start pushing the zombies back, well, a huge army isn't necesarily a bad idea in that case. Wouldn't we all basically constitute a (relatively) huge anti-zed army anyways?

I need a small group with me because I have a kid. But I too don't want to draw to much attention to myself by anybody doing something stupid. I can't afford any f**k ups because something happens to me, my daughter is screwed and something happens to my kid I'll end up pissed off and crazy.

Well with the people around you. There should be no question on who you could trust. Keep your eye's open!

Actually what worries me is snipers. We'll probably end up going to my brothers because thats where my folks will want to go and I wouldn't let them go alone. The thing is getting there. It's a three hour drive so if we take the back roads and their clear and Marshall Law hasn't been declared.. First I have to get over to my parents house and then get to my brothers.

Somewhere between "moving in the shadows" and "something is going to kill me"

Quoted for truth.

I think I would likely be in the same category.

Same here. Anyone with "gun's blazing" will be dead in a day or so; it's the safe bet.

Small groups are the way to go in an all-out balls to the wall zombie outbreak. You can watch your people better, need smaller amounts of transportation if you go that way, need smaller areas to hide out in, need to locate smaller amounts of equipment.... The list goes on and on.

Once a permanent base of operations could be established, one might have less risk with a larger group but only if it was properly monitored.

Cloak and dagger is the way to go I think. I know you think you want to be a badass and be guns blazing, but I think that get you in more trouble than anything. I would attack zombies with a ninja like stealthiness or trick them to follow me and than with a group attack them.

I would actually like to try to invent traps and things of that nature.
