Load up on water and foodstuffs and position myself to take possession of a newly
Unneeded brinks truck. Plow right thru crowds, room to carry supplies and teammates, and
Is bulletproof, with gun ports a ready. Ditch the unneeded cash.

Hope I can find one with a trailer hitch.....

Go to the supermarket and run every credit card to the max.  I'd say gun store (or WalMart) for ammo, but I'm good there.  I don't have the option of running, so it's just a matter of time before I'm dinner.

That was an AWESOME question.  Can't believe no one asked that question before.

If I'm the only one who knows....make my move.  Grab my dog, love ones, and find head for water.  I live in Illinois, so plenty of fresh water.  All I need is a boat, the surround area has a potential 6 million biters, the water has none.  Prefer a boat with sails.  Load it to food and ammo...and set sail.

In whatever is left of the 12 hours, Id try to purchase more food, ammo, Illinois has a wait period for guns, so buying guns is out (getting arrested would be a death sentence).  Buy some solar panels, and toilet paper a new generator, reload supplies and as much fuel as I can get.  I can raid  abandoned homes up and down the great lakes for supplies. Boat only works in the summer.  Winter would be a disaster.  Would search out for a abandoned island, or something.

I could also fill by box truck with supplies and put a plow on front and head for the country.  12 hour I could get to Texas, or Canada, Nebraska, Florida, etc.


If the world is in full panic mode, close the door and start blasting Zeds.

Go to the hardware store to buy supplies to board my house up and fortify all entries and exits.  Buy shitloads of water and canned food.  Fill any and every container I have with gas. Try to get back home and get it all done before the POC.

Two chicks at the same time!

THEN, eat a good Omelette (probably won't be able to get one for a few years after Z-Day), load all mags, assemble a crew, and bug in. Or, if I was on my own...get to the nearest municipal airport and steal a plane! I had 40+ hrs in a Cessna 172, but went broke paying for flight lessons before I could get my license (I was a high school kid). How hard could it be?

Grocery store, gas station, load the guns and what I have at home and head the the house in the Texas hill country.  2000 acres on a hill top surrounded by a 8 ft heigh game fence.  Not all 2000 acres are mine but that shouldnt be a problem.

I am decently stocked on food, water, and gas but given the chance I would definitely get more.

A pharmacy run would be nice, but too risky.

Call my family and warn them.

Board up my house. I already have the materials. House is brick and all my doors are metal. I only have 7 windows but I do have an arcadia door in the back which worries me.

Heading for the hills would be last resort. I am only 5 minutes from thousands of miles of desert, but my SUV is small and I have a wife and daughter to worry about. We would stand a much better chance defending home rather than run.

Plywood and 2x4s for the first floor windows. Maybe even some quickcrete between the layers. fortify doors. Fortify stable. Kind of torn on allowing the horses to roll out in the pasture or stall them. Mags are loaded, -2. Contact family to put emergency plan in to effect. break out stored ammo. top off fuel cans and vehicles.

Get everything I need from the store for the next couple of weeks. Then tell everyone else. The faster and wider the panic spreads and people off each other, the less will be infected and require shooting.

It really depends a lot on the enemy

If they are the fast running super zeds from I am legend, or WWZ, I'm suck starting a .300 win mag. Otherwise, I'm good for a multiple day or week long range session against the ones from Dawn of the dead.

If they are the pathetic zeds from the walking dead, then I'd buy all the swords from the nearest nerd convention, and would probably manage to eek out some semblance of life worth living. If the clowns on the show made it through, how hard could it be?

Spend an hour at the store buying a few things and then take a nap. I'll be tired later and I might as well rest while I can.
12 hours isn't enough to take significant steps beyond anything I already have on site.

Choose carefully. Not all "armored cars" are armored.
Better to find an unused MRAP

View Quote

I have plenty of those.
twenty rounders too.
Few 90 round drums from pre-'94 and ammo to load them all up.
Most of the 30 and 20 rounders are already loaded because I'm coming off a summer shooting season and I tend to keep them loaded up for range trips.
One less thing to deal with when range time is tight
For that matter I have a whole duffle of mags I have no idea what gun they go to anymore.
