View Full Version : The Great HDC Rendezvous...and disaster!!

As few of you might have noticed, I recently picked up The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks. I have been reading it (quite sporadically, 2-3 pages at a time), and thats what made me think of this possible futuristic scenario.


Think of this as a game, if you will. Or a challenge/puzzle which will make you think/ponder over your BEST options, and choose the BEST of those, accordingly.


Let's imagine this - In about 5 years' time, say 2013, all of HDC agree together and meet during the summer vacations at a pre-decided place, say The Bahamas (lovely idea, isnt it?).

All of us arrive there in 1-2 days, and check in at a huge hotel, and are generally delighted to meet each other.

3 days pass just like that, sharing a lot of laughs, memories, fond moments of togetherness, play, joy, mirth, parties etc.

On the 4th morning, some of us hear on the TV that a huge ZOMBIE apocalypse has broken out throughout the mainland. No country is spared...(maybe it's a virus ala 28 Days/Weeks Later), and at once you are worried and concerned about the safety of your family/loved ones out there.

As the day progresses, all mobile and radio communications go out, one after the other, and TV stations start showing blank screens.

You get very worried, and decide to leave at once to check for family/survivors.

Here's where the exercise starts :-

1 - Let's say that all of you arrived there by your own personal boat, which is a 6-seater. So, alongwith yourself, you can make a team of 5 other people - HDC members in this case - who can accompany you in your perilious journey back into the mainland.

Which HDC members would you choose, and why? Think carefully and answer.


2 - Let's imagine, that by sheer chance/luck, some of you stumble across a weapons shed not too far from the hotel, which is PACKED to the brim with EVERY KNOWN hand-wielded weapon ever made, and plenty of ammo for each one of those.

Which ones would you pick for yourself, and suggest to your team members? Remember you will be going back on your boat which already has your team on it, so you wont have much space to stash as many weapons as you would like to take. Let's say, one weapon per member of your team. Thats a team-total of SIX weapons (and ammo).


3 - Once you arrive back on mainland (of your country), you go ahead to your hometown/city and check out on your family(ies).

If you find no/very few survivors, what would be your next plan of action? Remember you have 5 HDC members with you, and maybe some/very few of your own family members too. It could be a means for survival, contact, action...in short, your next STEP.


Let's think of this as an exercise in survival - surviving an apocalypse of very dangerous proportions. The question here is - will you be ready enough mentally/physically to handle such a possible disastrous situation?

If yes, let's hear it.

I would pick:monalisa,horrorobsessed,pinkfloyd,ferret and Posher.


Monalisa-She is a survior and could easily kill some zombies

horrorobsessed-I bet she has a dark side to her that could be helpful.She seems to have a strong mind.

pinkfloyd-Shes been through alot and has some built up anger inside of her,im sure.

ferret-Hes smart for his age and creative.Plus i bet he has an evil side to him.haha.

Posher-He could handle himself easily i think.He wouldnt even need a team.He would be great to have on my team.



I would grab a shotgun and lots of ammo and also a sword.They would probaly grab an AK47,magnum,desert eagle and 2 9mm.




I would find my brother.He has a very strong will and would survive.The others could have one survivor from their family.Then we would move out,and try and find other survivors.I would be listening to David Bowie and NIN to keep from going insane.Praying everyday that we all survive.I would also become detached.Beoming more deadly.

Would you move, from place to place? Or all of you would center yourself at some hidden place?

Remember, sooner or later, you are going to run out of ammo, food and fuel - 3 basic needs for survival.

How would you plan to meet these basic necessities? After all, its not only you, but your entire team too, who needs to survive.

After all, its not only you, but your entire team too, who needs to survive.From place to place,im use to that anyway.Also because we wouldnt have our scent around in one place to long.Were all smart too.So we wouldnt make stupid mistakes like in most zombie films.I think we could eventually settle down in one place,after weve secured it,and start farming or breeding cows,or eating veggies.I would also use my sword when i have no more ammo.I would teach the others to use them too.We could also make a knife weapon.That shoots knives out,of it.I would make sure to take care of them.All though they can too.We would be tight,like a family after a while.I think we would be okay.We would begin eating plants if the food was scarse and like i said,us knives or other weapons like that.Or get a huge tank.Since most of the soldiers would be dead anyway.

Firstly, I would bring

- Disease and Ferox - They both live in great britain so it would be useful when we want to visit our homes. Also, they both seem like they could be good fighters.

- Murderdoll - If she got angry at one of the zombies, then well, they don't stand much of a chance.

- Maggie and Dante - I speak to them often so we'd already know each other a bit.



- I'd get a sword, reccomend other people did too, but also have at least two sniper rifles for safe measure. Swords because they don't run out.

- I'd keep at sea as much as possible. Try and find a boat capable of living on. That way we can travel around and feel safe a lot of the time.

I'd take a sword or something else big and sharp and sit on the roof. Anyone who wants to join me can. If worse comes to worse I'll put the sword through my head, or jump off the roof.

Or, jump off the roof belly-first and hold the sword out in front pointed toward me.

If I had my honest choice and not to sound like and asshole but I'd go it alone.Not to offend anyone but I think I'd have a better chance of survival if I went at it with just myself.I'd grab plenty of shitgun and pistil ammo and a sword or two.then it would be off to check on my family.If they where alive I'd stay with them and if not I'd continue to go alone moving from place to place til I found the perfect safehouse.

Yeah, but thats the easier way to survive through an apocalypse, Freak.

But when you have a team with yourself...people who are dependent on you, and you on them, then it becomes a much harder ordeal. Depleting resources, increasing dependability, hostile and aggresive environment...and sheer luck and calculated plans.

Thats what is the whole meaning of this exercise. Survival.

Think it over again, and give it some real and hard thought. You can do it. :)

I don't find that offensive at all. I honestly feel the same way.

But I like V's challenge... ;)

V - I LOVE apocalypse hypotheticals. Excellent thread.


1 - Let's say that all of you arrived there by your own personal boat, which is a 6-seater. So, alongwith yourself, you can make a team of 5 other people - HDC members in this case - who can accompany you in your perilious journey back into the mainland.

Which HDC members would you choose, and why? Think carefully and answer.

Urge & Newb - Sure, some people might consider them "old." Personally, I consider them seasoned. With Urge's volleyball and martial arts prowess and Newb's, uhm, drinking prowess, I think that they would prove to be valiant protectors when the time comes.

Rod - When I was a n00b, one of my first threads was a similar "what would you do in the apocalypse" thread and I remember distinctly Rod saying that he and his family already had an apocalyptic survival plan. This was my introduction to Rod and, along with being being a total turn on, his post let me know that he would be a good guy to have around in case of apocalypse. Not to mention, he can play and sing some swingin' rockablilly to fill those lonely zombie-filled nights.

MurderDoll - Good God. There's a reason why she's been on people's lists so far - She's a badass who will absolutely rip the zombie motha fuckas apart with her bare hands. Dolly's a vicious Lone Wolf, but I figure, given the right incentive, she might come over to my side... ;)

Freak - Hey, a girl's got to think of the carnal pleasures. I'll need a freak to get me through those lonely nights. And if he can't handle it, well, we can use him for bait if we ever need to make a clever getaway. The nerd always dies.


2 - Let's imagine, that by sheer chance/luck, some of you stumble across a weapons shed not too far from the hotel, which is PACKED to the brim with EVERY KNOWN hand-wielded weapon ever made, and plenty of ammo for each one of those.

Which ones would you pick for yourself, and suggest to your team members? Remember you will be going back on your boat which already has your team on it, so you wont have much space to stash as many weapons as you would like to take. Let's say, one weapon per member of your team. Thats a team-total of SIX weapons (and ammo).

For Dolly and myself - Machetes. I'm not much of a shot and I have a feeling that chopping will be so much more satisfying. Not to mention - they'll never run out of ammo.

Urge and Newb each get a shotgun and ammo. When they run out of ammo, they can use them as melee weapons.

Rod gets a six-shooter with plenty of ammo. I just have a feeling that he'll be my zombie-killing cowboy.

Freak gets a sniper rifle. I don't know - I just have a feeling he'd be good at sniping.


3 - Once you arrive back on mainland (of your country), you go ahead to your hometown/city and check out on your family(ies).

If you find no/very few survivors, what would be your next plan of action? Remember you have 5 HDC members with you, and maybe some/very few of your own family members too. It could be a means for survival, contact, action...in short, your next STEP.

We need to get the HELL away from the city. I live in Central Mass, so I would move Westward. Settle in the Berkshires for a while. Idyllic zombie-fighting existence. Come winter, the zombies will freeze and we can spend Christmas shattering their frozen carcasses.

i'd pretty much take several weapons and all the HDC women with me to a decent sized island - something easy to defend, where food is plentyful.

then i'd set about single handedly repopulating the earth.

i dont care if i only last a couple of years - i'd die with a big fucking smile on my face - of that you can be sure.

rofl...chill out, Gore.

Pretty interesting ideas there, especially Chrono. But there's a question - fuel.

Roaming all the time WILL eventually deplete that important resource. Let's say you roam some more on foot. What then? Eventually, one has to stop sometime.

GorePhobia
09-02-2008, 09:55 PM
Sorry for the outburst. Elvis just gets on my nerves sometimes. There really was no need for him to chime in.

But the people I would take with me would be:

Rayne - Because she is like the mother figure who will always know a way to fix things when they go bad.
Rod - Because he is a writer and would know how to get out of sticky situations.
V - Read the Survival Guide and knows his shit.
Chrono - You need to have a really cute girl don't ya? Plus she is super fun to talk to and smart.
Massacre Man - You need to have the funny one.

For weapons I know I would like to have dual samurai swords attached to my back and I would like to have a shotgun with as much ammo as I could pack in a backpack. I would let Rayne get an AK-47 and possibly a cross-bow because I think she would have a good time with one of those. I'd give Rod dual six-shooters with as much ammo as he could carry in a backpack. Chrono would get the Machete she wanted because she is good with them. I would have MM use a sniper rifle to strap to his back and also carry around his sword that he wanted.

Once I rounded up the troops/family we would try and find shelter somewhere BIG and secluded where most zombies wouldn't really be. We would try and fill as many duffelbags with food and health supplies as we could so we could survive as long as needed. I would want to get a Ford F-150 to put everyone in so as we drove by we could kill zombies with our Machete's and swords. Plus we could use the hatch for storage of gasoline for the truck.

Ahh - I wasn't very clear. I'd stop in the Berkshires to live the idyllic zombie-fighting existence. Plenty of woodland for fire (cooking and the whatnot). Fresh running water. And a low population density (fewer zombies). We'll build a farm-fortress and pick off zombies as they come. Maybe find a radio and broadcast to survivors - But I'm not much the savior type.

I guess I'm really banking that winter will slow them down.

Hmm, let's see.........

Five HDC members I would bring (if I can bring more than five, I can think of a lot more people!):

MurderDoll - 'cause she'd kick some serious ass
Rayne - same as above
Gore - same as above
urgeok - just because
Zero - I wanna see him go apeshit on the zombies :D

Weapons - rifles, handguns, swords, shovels, pickaxe

Travel - in a Hummer til the fuel runs out, then hoof it.

They are zombies. I doubt winter will slow them down.

Of course, running water coming directly down from the mountains is a BIG plus (because it nullifies the chances of any sort of infection). Population density will change...zombies dont care about that. (Remember, they gotta eat too)


Weapons - shovels, pickaxe.

When it comes to fuel well, we wouldn't need that much. We'd mainly just be going a few miles off sure and down or up the coast each time. The rest of the time we'd just let the boat rest. But we would go around boats and such taking their petrol for reserves etc. And I'm sure the gas stations wouldn't mind all that much.

Other survivors will be thinking the same thing. You either strike early and take all the gas you can (trading some to people who beg for it IF they have enough to trade to make it worth your while), or live without fuel and find other ways to generate electricity. I would immediately confiscate two very large whole house solar generators that I've been looking at. They're on trailers already so it would be an easy ride. I would use fuel only as trade bait and although I wouldn't need it I would still take as much as I could.

True.

I suppose yeh, you strike fast and get as much renewable as possible. Maybe as my plan is to live at sea, investing in a water powered generator would be a good move. And solar panels.

Indeed. Speed will be of the essence.

There will be eventual showdowns with other survivors (unless all of em are in the same team, or group)...which brings me to an interesting point.

More of a question really...

If a group of survivors (of HDC members and some of their families) came across another group (of HDC members and some of THEIR families), will they be able to bond together to form a group?

Or will it be, a showdown? "I reached here first, so its mine" kinda situation...

Remember, all of you ARE desperate...to fight it out, and to survive...and it is a pretty extreme scenario we are talking about here.

Like, for example, Cheeba's group came across NeverEnding's group...kinda situation.

not just safety in numbers - but more can be accomplished with greater numbers.

Same here. We need to rebuild. In 2013 I'll be 19-20.

A young, fresh, strapping, fit body, good for rebuilding for extended periods of times. So, I'll sacrifice my body for the good of the team. We will repopulate...through me!

True...but some are liable to think on the lines of "excess baggage".

Its human trait to be selfish...theoretically, yes, we are all friends and stuff but, practically, will we ACTUALLY be THEN...considering THAT situation?

Common and mutual survival, or "you go your way, I go mine..."?

You create groups and those who can't hold their weight will meet a terrible fate...


A larger group is harder to maintain but also essential to survival unless you're just a short term solution kind of person.

See, most people tend to think practically. In such a difficult scenario, things wont be any different. Rather, it would bring out the WORST traits in us humans.

See, most people tend to think practically. In such a difficult scenario, things wont be any different. Rather, it would bring out the WORST traits in us humans.

People's perspectives won't change, neither would their "saving own skin" mentality, for that matter.

I would try to help along those with me as much as possible but you have to have balance. You can't keep going back to save somebody or sooner rather than later you'll be caught in the trap.

I think it's a good thing to do as more people means more lookouts, they'd have food an other needed things that could help if you were running low. More people to help build a fort or something. More people to hunt etc.

Also, you don't have to outrun the zombies, you only have to outrun them.

My Team & our weapons:

V --> .45 Colt Single Action army
Angra--> Flamethrower
ChronoGrl---> Samurai
neverending--> SMG~UZI
futunato---> Crossbow

...and I'd like to use a shotgun only:)

This would a team of just fun & thrill...no tension for family & friends.

At first we would pick Mr. Romero with us...to filmed the whole journey & made his ultimate finale of living dead series. The title would be ROMERO & THE DEAD! V and NE would take a short interview of him before the shooting starts. The interview would continue later also and it'd be about his observation & realization for his own works and the present scenario..and how he like to interprets them. Moreover, how he'd help us to find out a cure for the dead rather than only shooting into their head?! I hope he'd be at least able to figure out some level of communication with the dead & that would probably help us to control the situation by less fires & blood sheds.:D

You create groups and those who can't hold their weight will meet a terrible fate...


A larger group is harder to maintain but also essential to survival unless you're just a short term solution kind of person.

I absolutely agree with this sentiment. If we encounter another group of HDC members, it would depend on their numbers and members as to whether or not I would welcome them into our clan. Resources are limited - I would only want to welcome contributing members.

I like the cure plan too. Not to mention, it opens this whole world of zombie medical experimentation. mwahahahahahahaha.

We did this before right? I just feel like we have. But in any case:


Rayne- And most importantly at that.
Dude Guadalupe- A Given
Dante- He's got spunk, that one.
MissMacabre- I'll defend you to the death, I shall :D (If you don't gut me first)
V- Because every team needs a pompous buffoon to be dramatic (Assuming I get bored)


(No, but seriously, that may not be why, but that's definitely who i'd take)

@V- :D

Oh and, we'd go to my grandparents house in south Georgia. Population in the town is 300. After they're gone, nobody's gonna troll through there in search of brains or loot. They have a house, a barn, another metal barn, and 3 cars. Not to mention the fourwheeler. If all else fails, my cousin's house is a mile away, and there's a church one mile the opposite direction. Now that's options. Weapons? My grandpa is a hunter. Nuff said.
