ZSDW Official Base
Sep 28 2008, 5:17 PM EDT
The ZSDW would greatly benefit from an actual location. Of course we would have to purchase land for this and pay taxes on that land. I propose the base be in America somewhere. It would probably be best to situate this base in America as over 60% of the wiki is from there. If we bought an empty field in a strategically defensible location against zombies, we could use one of the wiki's archiatects and everyone could contribute in its actual construction. We could have gun training, radio rooms, bedrooms for those staying long and short term. Let me know what you think. This is quite an ambitous idea after all.

This isnt a bad idea but there are a few big issues; people would think we're a paramilitary group or a doomsday cult, it would be incredibly expensive and many of the cites menbers wouldnt have the time/means to contribute, and with everybody from this cite who hears about it comes trailing a big group of survivors or if the Government/rouge military decides to seize it we're fucked and there goes all are hard work. But dont get me wrong its a great idea I like it.

Good concept, but that requires a rather large commitment as well as a large sum of money. I think we should start small, say at a member's property and expand from there.Still, I don't see many people lining up to give money for anti-zombie training. Anybody good at fund raising? 4 out of 5 found this valuable. Do you? |

"Central location with few neighbors and good land, Jackson Co MissouriI had no idea I lived near eden...lol...Jackson County is north of Kansas City on the west side of the state( kind of flat and treeless)...I live more towards the south east central part(thick woodlands and start of the Ozark Mountains)...Missouri has hundreds of thousands, if not millions of acres that are national forest(Mark Twain National Forest). They are free to public use with a few areas like trails,campgrounds,etc. being restricted from hunting...I love it there because there are some areas that are still wilderness and even has wild horses. You can walk for a week or more and never come across any sign of humans or civilization. There are also many rivers, creeks, and streams. There are natural springs, monstrous caves, rolling hills, mountains, and bluffs and gorges...I don't plan to wander far. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

Hey, im from Australia and though I may not be able to attribute to the base in physical person I could give a rough plan/sketch of the base as I am very good at drawing and I own an architect folder (well my brothers'). If you can, can you tell me the size of land it is on. How many rooms you want. How big do you want it all up. And just the other details of that thnx :)...this doesn't mean i am a builder... so i wouldnt know what type of wood and supports go where...same for electrical. 2 out of 3 found this valuable.

well you know in areas like Montana there is good land for sale (i think not sure it was a few years back) and if you make a complex that is like an office building, you can createa company not neccisarly for the zombie invasion, but like trainning in self defence and then reinforce the building multi story, make the windows above head height and make it have stairs that are collaspable for "space" and put up a wall and such. . . . if you do do my idea, i claim no responcibility

I've got some sketches in the works...Primarily inspired by the German underground bunkers found in St. Nazaire, France and Tunisia, Africa from the Medal of Honor: European Assault videogame, but on a more cost-effective scale and without Nazi propaganda adorning the walls....Those have been replaced with the 28 Weeks Later MAINTAIN THE QUARANTINE posters and lists of procedures for if the based was to be invaded.

I propose that for it to be in the US, it should be in a place roughly eqidistant to all who might potentially reach it- Just outside Witicha Falls is the Geographic center of the US.Just a thought...

Money is the first obstacle. I don't think any of us are millionares, espically with the economy in its current state. So we now have a few options, either we all dish in a bit to a pot, or we go for fund raising. I might create a page for tis.

I seem to see a lot of advertising around the site, and most of it NOT skin jobs related.What I can’t see is why they can’t chip in, say a penny each view, for them… 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

If we're going to raise funds, we probably need to appoint someone to be treasurer. Someone who is good with numbers or even an accounting major in college. Definitely a good thing to add to the resume if anyone is interested. It wouldn't hurt if we establish ourselves as a non-profit organization as well. If we do that as well as have some good advertising and PR, we could escape the "paramilitary" stigma. Who knows, we might even have tax benefits as well as be able to appropriate better equipment. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

Some of the things that I think that we need to take into account, is the issue with money, supplies, and whether people are going to actually be willing or not to help build the base and contribute to this. I kinda think that people will be a little skeptical as to why we are building a base like this and why we are training people to shoot zombies. Also, this project is going to take alot of money if we want to pull this large a project off. In Addition, we may get some people to help us build it, but many people will be scared out of their minds and refusing that zombies are out there. I agree with Marsden. It would be a good idea for the base to include gun training and also to include bedrooms so people can stay either short or long term. Other things that I think the base should include could be a special underground protection bunker, sort of, just in case some of the security is breached, if that ever happens. The underground protection place could include supplies like fod and ammo. Also, in the main base, we could have a storage room for extra guns and ammo, heavens forbid we have problems and we need to use them. Sorry this is such a long post. Last thing. I also think that the walls of the base should be reinforced titanium steel or some other type of strong and inpenetrable material anf also have watch towers on all 4 corners of the base. Also, we could have a recreation room and maybe weekly or monthly trips on buses or in cars to maybe a nearby town or something to gather supplies in case we are running low. Again, sorry this was such a long post.

Make it a survival training facility. Have training for survival, shooting, air soft, paint ball, gun shop, knife shop, hiking, camping, and a retail store with survival supplies, and misc. novelty items (ZSDW shirts, cups, and etc.). We could make money by starting a company, to build on. I have several ideas that would be able to build on. If a large enough number of us could get together, and decide on a business plan and share start up expenses, we could make it work. Possibly starting with several retail location and growing into a Master Fortress, "aka" (corporate offices). Each small location could be set-up for regional fortresses. 6 out of 6 found this valuable. Do you? |
