This is a good example of asynchronous collaboration to solve real world problems

Douglas Garnett-Deakin fair enough. I was thinking fire escape- steep, easier to destroy. But it's Max's top ten.

Acie Slade You could pour a can Acme Motor Oil down the staircase. Worked great in Looney Tunes

Looney tunes Zombies. I am FOR this concept. FYI- be careful in Zombie attacks with engine oils, gasoline, and other flammable items- you are trying to get the high ground and nothing can pose more danger to the high ground than fire. Let's... be careful out there, my friends.See More

William Rodenfels yeah, I had a short (no comments from the peanut gallery) thought about adding a flame thrower to my zombie kit, but then thought a bunch of flaming slow burning torches running around was not a good idea...

‎"a bunch of flaming slow burning torches running around was not a good idea" I think this is a phrase we can all live by. In fact, I want that bumpersticker. With Zombies, you really need to either get the head off the body or destroy the ...head. Torching just causes more trouble than it solves. I think the number 1 land tactic is to slow with large objects (no, caltrops do NOT slow zombies, but shopping carts do) and 2 remove or crush the head with something.See More

William Rodenfels Dunno Acie? Just had another thought for the zombie kit that I quickly discard...Bow & arrow w/dynamite (Like Dukes of Hazzard), but thinking that the zombies are coming towards you & depending on how slow the wick burns, could blow up in your face (literally)

Acie Slade Hmm...can hollowpoints be legally purchased in VA? Not sure about MD. Of course, if the Zombie sh!t hit the fan then all legalities would go out the window I suppose

William Rodenfels I kinda' like the idea of killing them with Justin Bieber songs or letting me sing karoke. Either is pretty destructive!! (worked on "attack of the killer tomatoes)...which are kinda like zombie vegitables

Douglas Garnett-Deakin Rule 7: Stock up. Don't be afraid to steal, since you are probably stealing from the undead at this point. I should point out Rule 9 is Blades don't need to be reloaded. So be careful not to rely on guns alone.

William Rodenfels It really depends if the zombies are the fast running zombies like in 28 Days, or the slow pokes like in Shaun of the Dead. Really would need to have two different tactics to fight

Acie Slade Could go for blades in an open space vs. sparse opposition. So maybe claymores then sniper volleys from the high ground then mop up with swordsmen. Might lose some good men to unexploded claymores though. Such is battle

William Rodenfels I like the idea of the claymores. I was thinking more to old school tactics and charging with calvary and sabers. The horses could bowl over and trample, you have the high ground, speed of the horse to help the chop[ping with sabers, and as a last resort skoot out of there faster than the zombies.

I have to say that 28 days was not a movie about zombies, so I wouldn't worry about that. Rage infection fighting tactics would be much different.I like that you are both thinking about "Defense
