Hey guys, it's Zedslayer123 and I will show you my zombie survival plan.

Part 1: The First Shaky Day

The first day of the apocalypse will be rough. I consider the first day the day zombies appear on the area I live in, and the great panic will begin. In the course of the first week, many will turn into zombies. I estimate 3 days until the power is dead, 4 until the water works fails.
In the first week, 95% of the people in my country will try to escape (P.S, My country doesn't allow firearms). Because of my extensive thinking of the zombie world, I realized that those who escape will most likely ride cars. Unfortunately for them, the only country next door is North Korea, so escape by land is impossible. In response, air ports and docks will be flooded, but the government will use the planes and boats for themselves, and privately owned vehicles will used by those who own them. Therefore, the majority of the population will be trapped in their car, in a long traffic jam. Those at the front of the jam will try to stow in planes or protest, those in the middle and the back will be oblivious to what is going on. When zombies arrive, those in the jam are nothing more than canned food.
I suspect that the zombie epidemic will most likely start between 7AM-6PM, that time, people will be outdoors. That is a convenient time for zombies to bite unsuspecting individuals. At this time, I will be in school.

At first, there will only be 2,000 or so zombies in Z-day. Later, the number will grow to 500,000 in less than 2 hours. By that time, the government will be aware of the threat. All the schools will be contacted by the government to send the students home, including our school. Our school has a system where students and teachers go to the auditorium in earthquakes, fires, or any government messages. In the case of zombies, that will be about an hour before they come to the suburbs the school is in.

zDexter's Survival Plan

Nov 16 2011, 9:34 AM EST by CDSm101-800s

G'day folks, zDexter here pushing the survivor effort in Australia, This is my firsst post (so please, be harsh) and as i see it there are 3 sure-fire ways of surviving a ZPOC here, short of locking yourself in a cellar with a steel door are:
1. Heading out west into the scarcely populated outback
2. Living at sea, or Sydney harbour
or 3. Escaping into the bush.

During the intial panic of Z-day i doubt that it would be possible to safely drive the 4 hours it would take to take me out of my urban area so my plan relies on bailing into the bush.
Keep in mind that no matter how well planned we are, or how many details we have taken into consideration, our survival will depend on circumstantial and opportunistic factors. e.g You have a foolproof zombie plan, a perfect BOB and BOL, a ssource of food and water, but z-day strikes when you're in the city attending a huge music festival (game over)

With that in mind, i devised my plan with spontanaety at the forefront.
2 minutes from my house lies an entrance to a vast bush reserve, in which a few select friends and i have created our BOL, complete with cliff on one side, climbable for us, not so much for zack, thick scrub and ankle traps on all other sides, make-shift bed and fireplace and a pantry. Consisting of a hidden eski containing enough canned food and drink for a few days.

When zeds strike my friends and i (who all share a common plan) can make it to our BOL in a timely manner from anywhere in the near local area. If i am fortunate enough to be at home and the option of bugging in isn't an available option (i have a separate plan for bugging in at home) i can have myself geared up and my BOB packed in just over a minute, armed with a crowbar i can be in the safety on the bush within minutes.

I like your frank and realistic view of bugging out from an urban location. I also like the idea of keeping things flexiable as possible. Having scouted out a spot to hole up in, shows that you have given this more than just a passing, casual thought.

However I think you should give more thought to the long term. The spot you have selected seems to be more of an initial BOL, a meeting place for your friends once the dead arise. This may buy you a few days, but what if your friends bring others? What then?

One problem of living in a large populated area is that once the dead start wandering around looking for ppls to munch on, ppls will tend to flee to the suburbs and then to the same bush your going to hold up in. A bigger problem is that they will bring their infected and the shambling moaning horde with them. Unless your able to keep a very low profile so that nobody notices you, dead or otherwise, your going to have company. This same group is likely to get hungry and start to scavenge the same houses your thinking of.

A firearm is always preferable over a melee weapon, but whenever possible, avoid detection and avoid having to fight zombies. Firearms make noise, which will attract more zombies, or worse; desperate, starving and terrified survivors. The odd shot may be hard to zero in on, but a series of shots is advertising your position.

As for extermination, is there any point? Not too sure how many ppls live in Sydney, but if we only assume half get turned into zombies, the other half either survive or end up in zombie stomachs, you got alot of zeds to worry about. Your going to need a butt load of ammo.. even if you can somehow convince all the zombies to line up in a row for 10 headshots at a time......

I would recommend avoiding contact if all possible, but there will be situations where you will have to engage them in combat. Just pick your ground and terms to fight on whenever possible.

When i realize that the outbreak is occurring the odds are that i am at home so my first action is to get my mom to call the list of people to initiate the plan they are to get their supplies and head to the primary holdout and start securing and fortifying it.

The exception is the level 3 federal firearm dealer i know he is to get his friends around and i will be heading over to his place to pick up some better firepower and his team we are going to head to walmart in the nearby town on the way drop off the extra weapons and ammo at the primary holdout.

At the walmart we will drive around behind it avoiding attention of the zombies or any people that might be alive to the loading docks and snag a crate or two of beef stew or other non-refrigerated food we can get our hands on and put it in the back of the pickup.

On the way we will get 4 gallons of diesel and drop it off and two people at a barn and on the way back from the walmart trip we stop to pick them up and i follow them in the tank and stop at the gas station and fill it up and we return to the primary holdout.

The two people are to locate the tank in the garage the keys and add the 4 gallons of diesel in preparation for me to drive it.

The primary holdout is in Mendon, MI the IAC factory its perimeter is fenced and has 2 gates and forklifts and many crates to quickly block off and reinforce the building.

young gun's survival plan

Thread started: Jul 31 2011, 3:14 PM EDT Watch

As i am 13 my plan is very sketchy but I am hoping to get some good advice so please give me as many pointers as possible

first of all my B.O.B.
I have very limited resources so its just starting out
1 bic lighter
1 5" fixed blade knife with sheath
1 flash light (those small led ones that are really bright)
10 AAA batteries
10 AA batteries
1/2 a dozen bottles of water
1 sleeping bag
assorted toiletries
aluminum baseball bat

thats pretty much my BOB

now for my plan

At first signs of outbreak i would first of all get my family in on whats going on and if my dad is in on it well have acess to a whole lot of guns, bolt guns and shot guns mostly and a couple 9mms. If he doesnt go along with it my plan is thrown off and id porbly hole up at home and survive as long as possible but would eventually die probably. Saying he does go along with it we would probably load up our 2 cars, both chevy tahoes luckily, with food, water and weapons and make our way to my school. Now my school is a private school so it not ur normal 1 building giant school, it is a very spread out and includes a lot of stand-alone structures like a fine arts building and the 3 story hig school. If I am able to contact my two friends and their families well and we would meet up at school. my mom grew up on a farm so she should know how to start a small farm in the center of the track. At my school there are also plenty of point where i can see the street, I've scouted these my self and the entire school is surrounded by either 6 ft high boarded fences or 7 ft high wrought iron fences, giving us lots of firing positions and with scoped rifles it should be easy picking.

Again I'm sure there are tons of flaws in my plan so please comment a lot

ZeMatch's NYC survival plan

Mar 18 2011, 2:34 PM EDT by ZeMatch

Thread started: Mar 18 2011, 2:01 PM EDT Watch

A new development in my life is forcing me to relocate back to my hometown of New York City. Specifically, I will be residing in the borough of Brooklyn. A good friend of mine will be letting me live with her as a room mate. Fortunately, she is also on board with me for making bug out plans.

I will be living in a walk up apartment on the third floor with access to the roof. There is also a fire escape on the back of the building that drops down to the backyard. The buildings on both sides of the block are attached and form a ring around the backyard area. There is a narrow exit, about a foot wider than a car, protected by a metal gate. The entrance is out of the way enough to keep a number of zeds from wandering over and trying to push through. The backyard is protected enough so I feel safe to grow vegetables there. However, I don't plan on sticking around long enough to produce a harvest.

I will get prepared in a similar way like I do in Florida during hurricane season. I plan on stocking up on enough food and water for two people for at least a week. This is in addition to whatever food we have on hand from a regular trip to the store. I also plan on growing vegetables on the fire escape anyway to save on food bills so that will supplement what I have saved. Other supplies such as first aid, tools, survival gear, etc will also be stocked up beforehand as well. Hopefully we can survive the Panic and our building won't be raided or burned down.

Well I will start with my BOB
Crowbar - for melee (Inspired by half life)
22 rifle - For hunting
Shotgun - For close range and hunting
Journal - To record every characteristic of the zombies
Axe- Firewood and melee
Ammo - To be sure I never run out
A pot - To boil water to clean it
A book of different kinds of poisons ( know what I am savaging)
A fishing rod'
A book about camping and stuff
Bottled water
Food
extra clothes
Dual Kukri's
Lock blade Hunting knife
ducttape
Now my Bol:
Bring my brother and dog to Roper Mountain Science center ( It has a good area for shelter in the entrance A nature walk full of huntable racoons and ducks and a pond full of catfish and a historical area with a Corn patch). However because of its size and easy entrance forest me and him are still debating.So we may just barricade somewhere in the suburban area we call home ( vegetable garden abandoned tennis court next to lake and plenty weapons)
Journal plan: When I see certain behaviors of these things I can record it so I have better chances of survival (E.g. If I see them kill eachother )
Horde Plan:Avoid all noise and wait with a molotov cocktail or homemade flamethrower for them to come.

Zombies: Not super strong, not incredibly fast. They hear and see as far as people, but can smell up to a half mile away. They feel no fear or pain, and can be killed by bleeding out or having their heads blown off. They spead their infection through contact with saliva and blood. When infected, it takes about a day to turn.

Starting equipment;

Weapons: 12-guage pump-action shotgun with 100 buckshot shells, 22 calibur rifle, scoped, with 100 shots, Scoped 44. Magnum with 100 shots, Steel Baseball bat, Machete.

Armor: Three pairs of thick denim jeans, leather gloves, hiking boots, Two leather jackets, a neckbrace, and a motorcycle helmet.

Other equipment: Vaccuum pump/sealer, Nintendo DS Lite, Plastic bags, Chess set, Backpack, mixed antiseptics, Pennicillin, US Army Survival Manual, LED flashlight, BATTERIES, Binoculars, 30 lbs of food, about 30 belts (good for repairing/covering areas of clothing), Whetstone, Possible generator if vehicle is there, soap.

Starting Party: Myself, three to five friends.

PLAN 1 Offensive take:

Day one:
1) Notice zombies in town or hear in some way.
2) Gear up and evacuate the town of survivors to near where I live out the highway 3 miles up the mountain.

Days 2-4:
Evacuation.

Day 5:
Detonate Bridge, sealing off a three mile area from the zombies, then detonate the rear bridge as well.

Day 7-12:
Construct swing out bridge allowing access to the town.

Days 13-Indefinate:
Take self and party across the bridge armed to the teeth, kill as many Zombies as possible, pushing further into the town, then moving on a crusade to destroy the zombie menace, setting up survivors at key choke points along the way and leaving our mark upon every post. fortifying and 'zombie proofing' routes we clear.

This is something I've thought about for a long time, but never really discussed with anyone until lately. The plan, I feel, is a good enough guideline to use, but flexible enough to change in the face of unforeseen events. I'm basing this on what and who is available to me if Z- Day were to happen in about 5 minutes.

Preparations: I live in Southwest Florida, so my household is always prepared for hurricanes, so we perpetually have a three day supply of food and water.

Phase one: Bugging in. Head over to family friend's house with wife and mother- in- law. This person is a sheriff's deputy. There is a good chance she will be on call, but we have a spare key. Even if she's called away, she has an open door policy with us when she's gone. If she's home, even better. We would bring over whatever supplies we have. She lives close enough that we could run over on foot and be there in less than two minutes. We would then begin fortifying the house. When the panic is over, phase two begins.

Phase two: Bugging out. When the panic subsides and the streets begin to clear, we would then begin to move on to our "safe haven." My friends in a town about 80 miles north from where I live will hopefully have survived and begin Operation Fortitude. This will be our BOL and home for a while. It is a place I have lived in for five years and known for twenty (I used to spend my summer vacation at my grandparents there.) This town is somewhat isolated by the Intracoastal Waterway and the only direct way on the "island" is by three draw bridges. There is a small strip of land to the south that connects to land, and this will need to be monitored. We might dig a series of trenches across the narrowest point to deter zeds and raiders. The house of one of my friends has been determined to be the place to centralize ourselves. This is just a general outline and any constructive criticism is welcome.

this is my plan (obviously)
1st thing: find a melee weapon
2nd thing: head out of town by any means possible and head to bowden (its a small town half an hour south of red deer) if im not alredy there
3rd thing: find a gun in red deer while i pass through that and supplies and ammo
4th thing: head to bowden
5th thing: set up some minnor barricades on some small houses
6th thing: find a few more survivors to help me
7th thing: after finding those survivors we go raid some towns and construction sites for more barricade materials and to build a wall around the town
8th thing: after we have the wall and advanced barricades we start stealing solar generators
9th thing: we start our own small farm in the golf course

p.s one thing the best thing about is its lack of high buildings so that i can climb the water tower with a couple snipers and cover the town from the tower so no raiders or zombies can attack our base

my survival plan

Thread started: Sep 22 2010, 5:36 PM EDT Watch

I'm 14, I have almost no weapons in my house, and I've been raised to be more pacifistic than violent.
We own no guns, but I've thought and I've found there are some creative things you can do with a garage full of tools. Now, if a zombie apocalypse does happen at some point I intend to gather as many people as I can in my neighborhood together. I have quite a few gun enthusiasts nearby and some other people with firearms training, as well as people who are multi-talented (I.e. my old scoutmaster). There's a warehouse nearby that has fencing around it on all sides (metal fencing, not wooden) And its between the suburbs and some stores (Kroger's, Home Depot, Family Dollar, that sort of thing). Also, it has its own power generator. So, assuming I'm not killed before I can do anything, my plan is this
1) gather enough tools and supplies to last a few months
2) get everyone still alive in the nearby neighborhoods together and to the warehouse (eliminating all of the zombies in our way)
3) Once settled, send out teams to raid the nearby houses
4) send half of the group to raid the nearby stores and rescue any survivors found
5) (this is where things get more complicated) constantly eliminate all zombies found in the surrounding areas (say a half mile perimeter around the warehouse?) rescuing all survivors found
6) periodically send out teams to scout and give us estimated population densities of the zombies in the area (which will change as step 5 is completed repeatedly and as time progresses and zombies slowly make their way here), rescue any survivors, and search for necessary resources

We would hold out there until either a massive horde comes and kills us all or the military comes by.
