Greetings fellow zombie survivalists. I'm a 25 yr old male from Sydney Australia. I live about 10kms from the CBD so obviously when (for lack of a better term) SHTF I'll need to GTFO. I'm no expert in anything to do with weapons or combat, but what I do claim to have is a cool head and plenty of tact. Having once been a boy scout, I'm all about "being prepared". I'm here to learn as much as I can about Zombie Survival, and hopefully share some opinions of my own. About Me: When I started thinking way too much about zombies: I've always been fascinated with zombie fiction, even from an early age. My father always accused me of having a "morbid fascination" What started my zombie fixation:Video games mostly, then movies and books The resident evil series (Games, not the ridiculous Mila Jovavic movies) played a huge part in my interest. Favorite zombie book:Can't pick just one! Max Brooks Zombie survival guide. And the zombie combat manual by Roger Ma. Do the walking dead comics count? Favorite zombie movie: I can't really pick just one. The most notable ones would be Zombie land, dawn of the dead 28 days / weeks later (even though they run) Also, the walking dead BEST SHOW EVER Ranged Weapons: Currently none. Undertaking archery lessons, and plan to obtain firearms licence in the future. I would like to own (specifically for ZA) Primary: Browning BL22 Lever action rifle Calibre: .22LR Capacity: 14 Rounds Secondary: Smith and Wesson Model 617 Revolver Calibre: .22LR Capacity: 10 Rounds Melee Weapons: Cold Steel 7" recon tanto knife Hanwei tactical katana Cold Steel Magnum kukri machete Clothing: 1x Woodland camo fatigues 1x Pair of S.W.A.T tactical boots 1x Pair of cowboy boots 2x Pair wool socks 2x Cotton socks 2x Pair of Bonds briefs 2x Plain black t-shirts 2x Long sleeved shirt 1x Tactical vest (not owned) 1x Driza-bone riding coat black (not owned) 1x Beanie 1x Leather gloves Personal Hygiene: Inside a Maxpedition Tactical Toiletry Bag 1x Toothbrush 1x Toothpaste 2x Bars of soap General grooming tools, nail clippers, scissors, comb etc Food & Water: Several mayday calorie food bars. 1x Camel back 1.5litre 1x Army canteen 2 litre Camp Kitchen: Mess kit, 2x cooking / eating pans w/handle 1x CRKT Eat'N tool 1x Dry fuel hexamine stove Fire Starting: 1x Pack matches 2x Flint striker 1x Zippo light + fuel 1x Bic lighter Shelter: 1x 2 man light weight dome tent 500ft paracord 2x emergency ponchos 1x moon mat 1x moon pillow Maintenance/Tools: 1x Leatherman Charge Ti 1x Swiss army knife 1x Crowbar 1x Mallet 1x Hatchet 1x Shovel Lighting: Maglight XL100 LED Entertainment: Harmonica (I realise the danger of this, but it's use is infinite) Hacky sack Repair kit/Supplies: Needle and thread Super glue Duct tape Cable ties Information: Coming soon Hunting/Fishing: Fishing hooks and line Snare wires Mouse traps (courtesy of Braydon) First Aid Kit: St Johns personal leisure kit Communication: Currently none besides cellular communication.

As a fall back area, it will serve useful on escaping the immediate danger of the CBD Will I be staying in my home or headed somewhere else?: Living so close to the city, staying home is NOT an option, at least, not long term anyway. If I'm heading out, how do I plan to get there? : Timing will be everything, leaving too soon will get me caught up in the panic evacuations, unless I canpre-empt that and leave before that happens. On the other hand, leaving too late will leave me outnumbered by walkers, or runners. GOD I HOPE THEY'RE WALKERS... Motorbike or boat will be my ideal modes of transport away from home. Got anyone I want to take with me? : Since my family already lives in rural Australia, it wont be a problem bailing out quickly and efficiently. Since many of my friends think it's a joke to be prepared for such an event, they will suffer their ignorance. How will I communicate with the outside world, or do I plan to go the hermit route? : At first, communicating with the outside world will be very risky. People will be in such a panicked state that looting, raiding,pillaging will be an immediate danger to my party. Eventually, once a permanent sanctuary or fortress is established, scouting out will be viable. How am I planning to get food and water?: Self sustaining methods such as rain catchment and agriculture will hopefully be enough to provide. (More study is required) What’s my weapon of choice? Do you need to reload that thing? Got a plan for that? : I plan to join a gun club and obtain a handgun through legal methods. I'm thinking small calibre for ease of weight reduction of ammo, less noise, bigger clips etc Also, archery takes my fancy. Becoming a marksman with a bow is silent and deadly, with almost infinite ammunition when recycled. Got a survival philosophy? : I'm not much of a philosopher. I think the trick is to just stay alive, isn't it? Am I willing to hook up with other survivors? : Yes, within reason of course. People are more dangerous than the walking dead! Half the reason I joined ZSDW, was to see how many other people out there are planning for survival. Is my plan based on a book/movie/blog/scientist other survivors may have heard of?:
