This week's Ask The GameGirls question comes from UnknownGamer. She writes:
Love the site!. But my question is: if the Zombie Apocolypse were to happen, what 7 must have items would you make sure to have with you? (Also saying that you have a plentiful supply of food and medical supplies.)
Thanks,
UnknownGamer
I've actually given this a lot of thought, as all people should. In the inevitable event that a zombie apocalypse takes place certain items will be needed. I think a cop-out answer would be fully stalked, ginormous yacht. Preferably a solar powered one. That way I could just chill in the ocean, living off the sea. In the event the zombies did learn to swim I could just speed away. If there were zombie dolphins I'd be effed tho.
If I couldn't have a yacht, I'd go with the basics. My 7 items would be a shotgun and 6 costco status boxes of shotgun ammo.
That is an awesome question and I've had this conversation numerous times before, so I'm glad you asked it. I'm going to have to go with:
1. Lots of weapons. Various kinds of course, but swords and knives would be very beneficial considering they don't run out of bullets, and not everyone is a sharp shooter like they are in the movies. Head shots are actually pretty challenging in real life, let alone if you were panicking.
2. Lots of leather. I know that sounds kinky, but I'd head for a biker store first. I'd grab leather pants, jackets, gloves and even a helmet since you can't bite through it. Grabbing anything with spikes would also be essential like wrist bands and collars for the neck.
3. In addition to leather clothing, comfortable shoes and changes of socks. Most of your traveling could be potentially on foot. Changing socks over multiple hours can save your feet a lot of grief. Just doing a three day convention makes my feet feel icky, so I can only imagine.
4. Motorcycles are important since cars will most likely be blocking roads and you can maneuver in and out easier.
5. Energy supplements. Chances are you are going to be traveling a lot. You are going to have to be alert and focused, and probably won't get much sleep the first few weeks out.
That's all I can really think of. I mean, I would want to bring little things, or if I found safe place to shack up for numerous weeks at a time, I'm sure I would want books as some form of entertainment. However, they're not essential to living, so i left them out.
Hmm, zombie apocalypse eh? Well, in that case I would definitely need to have my DS, a shotgun, a flamethrower, arsenic just in case any of my fellow survivors became infected, a hatchet, some rope, and a teleportation device. All of those have pretty obvious reasons for being a necessity in that situation, so I think I'd be pretty safe with them. Great question UnknownGamer, thanks for asking!
Oooh fun question.
1. A book. Even Zombie Apocalypses can get boring.
2. a FN P90, for serious business
3. A Desert Eagle .50, for back up
4. Extra bullets.
5. A Halligan bar. Go on, google it.
6. A hand crank flashlight.
7. A swisschamp XLT. You can google that one too.
Preparedness is paramount.
Hmm...good question UnknownGamer. You helped out a lot since I've got food and medical covered. But if I had to choose, and I could only have 7 choices. I would have to say:
1. Fully automatic shotgun with unlimited ammo
2. Unlimited granades
3. Fortified building (preferably a location with a big building and lots of land)
4. Change of clothes
5. Truck with snow plow front, in case I need to go outside of my fortified building. :)
6. Gaming Set that includes deck of cards, dice, paper, and pen. That way I have some gaming supplies even if there is no electricity for video games.
7. I prefer to not be alone. So I would also have to have my buddies Trigga, TH4TGUY, and all the GameGirls. We may annoy each other eventually, but it's better than being alone with no one to talk to.
