What would be your plan of action, if zombies rise?

i live in a low populated area too. i have melee weapons at home and gathering food isn't a problem with me. the only obstacle is zombies. that isn't too much of an obstacle if you have melee weapons. personally i think guns would be fun but not as much fun as slaying zombies with a battleaxe or scimitar.

problem here being close contact with zombie fluids

you need some kind kind of HAZMAT body armor if you're gonna go that route


also some kinda clean room after wards

something to think about

i would probably wear an armor that is light and durable. my theory is that if you cant stab or shoot through it then teeth won't do much either. my debate is over which type of medieval style armor to use. any suggestions?

eye protection is key so you need something that will keep invisible droplets of zombie goo out of your eyes and mouth.

some really good metal gauntlets to keep these same contaminates of of any cuts you might have, if can get a good Katana I think you'll be ahead of the game . A good clean one stroke beheading and no playing in the Zombie goo , keep children away from Zombie killing weapons and armor ,they put everything in their mouths

I was going to suggest chainmail armour, but as MrsBlonde correctly states, it wouldnt hold up well to a spraying of zombie fluids.

Also, although it might sound like fun to stove a zombies head in with a battle axe, i imagine in real life it wouldnt be like that - I'd be a bit squeamish about 'braining' one of the devils!

i think a mace would me also a good antizombie weapon. if i was able to post a youtube link i would post the weapons test on deadliest warrior where they were testing mongol vs. Comanche, and there was that one part where they were testing a mace and the mongol guy completely crushed that dummy skull with a mace. the instant i saw that i thought to myself "what a good zombie swatter"


furthermore i was thinking more along the lines of light armor myself. something with elbow spikes and retracting wrist blades like off of predator but still i would have a pair of dai sho
