survivors would have to adopt a nomadic life-style, constantly moving and resettling. However, would they really be "actively" looking for you? As long as we stay out of their way, and they have power over the western world and the vast majority of people, there maybe no motivation for them to come looking.

I was kind of surprised that nobody suggested dehydrated foods as a food source. I have a dehydrator at home, and dried beef makes a tasty snack, and weighs very little, and if you can find access to water, can be rehydrated fairly easily. Also, dehydrators work wonders with fruits & vegetables too. One could pack (theoretically) 50 lbs of food into a pack weighing about 10 lbs, if it were dehydrated. The nutritional value of the food is pretty much the same too.

Anyways- here is my idea...I wanna know what you guys think.
I'm heading for South America...probably the mountain/jungle line in Peru or Chile (or even Bolivia or Ecuador). Bringing a plethora of seeds of all kind. We're going to basically grow our own food and fish at nearby streams.
I'm hoping that this is far enough away to atleast avoid the NWO for a good while (many years hopefully). Bad or good plan?
Note: We've planned it out a bunch more, this is just the basic idea. We would need a lot of tools and supplies...a machette definitely. Man I gotta start getting ready...
Live like the Incas in the mountains??? Hmm..

However a gun will only beat a sword if the person isnt close enough to cut you with it, if we are in the woods (which seems to be where everyone is gonna run to) then i would take a sword over a gun as it requires no maintenence, ammo, and most importantly of all, its silent
This is a great topic, i just had to join in. I think beginning now, anyone who genuinely believes in this scenario should begin training in martial arts, survival training, and anything else that will give you a head start
A traditional english longbow has enough power to fire an arrow through a 3 inch thick solid oak door and still have enough force to kill the person standing on the other side.
A pollaxe/warhammer can kill a man in body armour with a single blow
The three weapons i listed can be bought anywhere in the world. and arent very expensive, and will last a lifetime, can the same be said for a gun?
