If you're needing to ujse a melee weapon, you're more than likely food. Your backup weapon should be something you can use as a tool - like a crowbar, or axe, machete. There is no situation you would want to use a sword or something dumb like that. You get close to zombies, you get eaten.


I mean like knives... what if i use something like a pole arm? zombies = pwned. Anyway, my strategy is to stay as far away from the zombies as possible.


Considering you would have to strike hard enough to penetrate the skull, meanwhile there's hundreds more clamouring for your tasty meat, you'd be screwed.


I would only have one or two zombies trailing me at one time, if all goes to plan. tf a sweep with something long and hefty would do the job. But then again I'm not going to be carrying anything heavy. So a quick blow to the brain with the point of a knife would do the job. And i wouldn't necessarily have to penetrate their skull. just destroy the brain.

But... that's not a melee weapon. Unless you plan on smacking a zombie with a fistful of napalm, that is, which would be a very unwise career decision.

Also, you've now got zombies that are on fire and still shambling toward you. What now?


If there is hundreds after you, a melee weapon won't do s**t.
You really don't know what flame can do to a body, do you?

If everything is going according to plan, then it's probably a trap.

The best bet, still, is to STAY AWAY from zombies. If you have no ranged weapons, better to run away than openly engage them, as there may be more.

Well, we know what it would do to a live body. What it would do to a dead body that had gone through rigor mortis is disputable.

Having actually watched a man burn to death, i think I do. The problem with fire is the terror and pain of fire. A zombie suffers none of these things. Fire will eventually kill it, yeah, but in the meantime you've got a fireball heading straight for you.

And if you haven't noticed, I've been against melee weapons. Guns, or GTFO is my philosophy.

And an awesome pair of shoes.

Possibly a blimp, too.

And said ranged weapons should hopefully be silenced, or else it will be a dinner bell to all zombies within hearing range.

If you're running from a swarm, chances are they've already noticed you.

Didn't know we were talking about a swarm. wink
I have a question, planning things like these now is all good. But what would be your first reaction to the infestation, and how would you plan for that?
noisemakers would be a excellent addition to anyones inventory.

used as a distraction of course.

Well, avoiding one or two zombies isn't actually a problem. It's just that... one or two zombies will call more zombies, who will call more, who will call more, and so on. So, you're spotted by one, but you could have hudnreds zoning in on you.
