Zombie Hunting Ideas

This is a list of ways you can hunt down and kill zombies. None of these are recommended unless you have heavily armed, well-trained individuals to carry them out. If you can post some of your ideas.

Before attempting to attack any number of zombies, consider this

  1. How many will come, and how fast?
  2. How long do you think you will remain there, and do you have enough food, water, ammo, other necessities for all the people coming with you
  3. Are there any escape routes?
  4. Will you escape in fuel-powered vehicles or not?
  5. Do you have enough fuel to escape in fuel-powered vehicles?
  6. Do you have the ability to shoot at long, short, and medium range?

  1. The Stampede- This idea is get a lot of fast or powerful vehicle lined up, and plowing through a horde. You will have to be wary of hitting the other vehicles. This will probably not kill many, just leave them crawling around on the ground. Do NOT attempt in water, swamps, jungles, or cities. Cities will have too much debris in the way to execute this. This woks extremely well in prairies.
  2. The Drive-Away- You will need a truck and 3 or 4 steady shooters. Drive through a heavily infested area while making tons of noise. As you drive away, wait for zombies to get close, but not close enough to attack. Drive away at about 5 mph and make the sharpshooters aim for the head and kill them off. This is dangerous, as zombies could attack the sides or front of the car. Do NOT attempt in water, swamps, or jungles. This may work well in cities or prairies, maybe hills also.
  3. The Barricade- Make a barricade surrounding you completely. This requires plenty of objects. Crates, barbed wire, and cars work best. As they surround you, kill them quickly. Try using incendiary weapons. This will work almost anywhere.
  4. The Tower- First, find a place high above ground, such as a water tower, tree, or the roof of a building. Make plenty of noise. Pick the ghouls off as they approach. Be careful they do not get up to the top of your tower and make sure none are in your tower before attempting to do this.
  5. The Moving Tower- Find a vehicle, such as an armored car, garbage truck, or semi, then drive straight through infected territory. Make sure to have the rooftop snipers secured to the vehicle. Do NOT drive so fast that they fall off.
  6. The Clean Sweep- This involves sending many troops into an area, primarily a city, to mop up every zombie. This includes going into every single building, into every single sewer, and checking every place for zombies. This could take days ,weeks, or even months, depending on the size of the city and your number of troops. Do NOT send any one alone into a building. Do NOT sleep in the city. Do NOT EVER split up.
  7. Extermination- Level the area, through fire, artillery, bombing, or any other means. Leave absolutely no place left to hide. As soon as no smoke or flames are left, enter the city, remove the bodies, and kill the remainder.
  8. The Firestorm- Cover a large field with flammable liquids. Light them up and retreat to a safe location. For maximum, effect, put a few mines or grenades in the middle. Make sure you have multiple safe locations to retreat to in the event that the first is attacked or lit aflame.
  9. Trick the Zombies - First, have noise fixed at a location where you can snipe. Kill any and all zombies who go there, and remain silent.

byates: Very labor intensive methods, also resource intensive. My ideal, use a tower or tall building, lure Zed's to the top with automatic noise maker, recording of a human voice would be my first choice, set it to loop, use line power or batteries recharged by the sun. Have the noise maker at the end of a pole or under a ledge so that when they went toward it they fell off the building or tower. Long fall with sudden stop at end, breaks bones, maybe even head. Have landing area in enclosed area, so ones that can still crawl will still be trapper. Check often for problems, dump quicklime in occasionally to kill stench and dissolve flesh.

Alcari: Great tactic for clearing our zombies in rural areas, or when low on manpower Set up a series of low and narrow trenches, about 4 foot (1.3m) deep, 2ft (60cm) wide. A zombie will fall in, but will be unable to get out due to his poor motor skills, and will start wandering the trench. At fixed positions, dig deep pits where the zombies will fall in. At random intervals, check these pits to clear out the zombies. This is part of a large scale cleanup operation.

Tacticalplanner: Well, my idea is relatively simple. Take a small team of 4, load out in a nice truck, build a mini-fort, and hunt with rifles. When all the zombies are dead, either pack up the fort (that's the beauty of my idea) or leave it as a listening post if survivors pop through. Keep well camouflaged if you leave the fort behind. Even good for mobile groups (listening posts to watch for zees while the rest sleep).

AgEnT_GrEEn: I'd Have my [hopefully] permanent fortress rigged with loudspeakers, then I'd play music that everyone in the fortress likes, then we'd draw them in that way....I don't like the idea of going to them; we don't do take-out.

Centorium: A relativly simple (If costly) method of zombie hunting would be to secure some wood's or forest area. Find a section that is cut off from the rest of the wood's. place flamible materials on the floor and on the base of tree's, lure Zeds into your killing ground and then just burn them all,set fire to the wood's If done thougholy the zombie will burn,the tree's will collapse and crush them,you can then set up a perimeter around the woods and pick off the dis-orientated Zeds easily,they will not smell/hear you due to the smoke and flames and will not see you once again due to smoke and the fact thata smart survivor stay's hidden.

a little strategy i came up with awhile back with my friends simple but dangerous

just tak a large pickup truck an construct a metal cover for the bed with some sort of door that would be hard to access for the zombies and tie off some empty can lots of empty cans and get some firecrackers...anything to make noise get some1 who i armed with some sort semi auto rifle in the bed with fire crackers and armor the windows in the cab from the inside find a good spot preferably a long wide road and get the one with the most rifle skill to get u p on a building in the distance and sound the dinner bell ...drop the cans out of the bed and start throwing firecrackers then the guy in the cab drives at about 10-15 mph dow the road and the guy in the back takes out the ones that get really close to the vehicle and the one with the rifle picks off the ones at the longer distances.............not the most efficient or safe way of doing things but when you are as excited about killing zeds as i am these are the kinds of of ideas you come up with but in the last couple years ive matured and that dosnt sound so smart but either way im gunna throw it out there

Shooting

A shot to the ceribelum should kill the zombie this is the top of the spinal cord or the lowest part of the brain it control movement

Burning

It may be possible to burn zombies this can be done with many iems just be safe when burning zombies

Running those zombie brain eting bastards down

Any large vehicle as talked about up top has already said but be warned there may not be any more gas so what is in the tank is it!

Chopping them up

Chain saws may jam, lawn moers may jam
go with a wood chipper or the muffin monster from 30 days of night

Blowing them up

a nuke is a nice ideal but may not always destory the zombies or may lead to other problems
fire bombs may burn the zombies up

There are many types of zombies so do research but here is a way to kill the most popular zombies

re-animated= burn them until nothing left / freeze will stun them
voodoo die= just like people becuase they are drugs and still people
rage= shoot them / beat them / burn / hide for 90 days
george Remaro= burning or shoot them in the head
demon or ghost posession / rath= avoid, run hide in corner and piss yourr pants

So, this problem is in about every strategy that you will go on a roof/high ground/ anywhere OOUTSIDE
your fortress to attract zombies and the kill them. Think about this, you two partners, good shooters etc
and lots of ammo and such. Then you start to attract zombies. Few zombies are coming.
You think that there will be few more zombies, like
hundred zombies, no problem. But, then you see on the horizon; endlessly seeming horde of
zombies crawling towards to your position. What will you do??? They will surround you in a matter of
minutes? So you cannot escape your position. And you and your pals will probably die to dehydration/hunger
Think twice before moving outside your fortress to kill.
Things to consider=
-How many zombies will come, and how fast.
-Do you have the time to escape/fall back
-Where you will fall back
-Amount of ammo & weapons
-Bringing supplies, food,water etc.
-How will you escape? BIkes? Cars? Mobilized Anti-Zed-Fortresstanks?
- If escaping with any fuel powered vehicle, how long can you go before the fuel runs out?

THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU GO OUTSIDE YOUR FORTRESS!!!
