Zombie Apocalypse and You; Part 1

So you just woke up and found out that I somehow created a zombie apocalypse. Well now what do you do, well if you had read this before the apocalypse, then you will at least know what tools you should have.

Tools:
1x Axe/Machete/Bat
1x Crowbar
1x Boltcutters (the best you can afford, or find if you didn't get one prior to the apocalypse)
1x length of chain
1x padlock
1x plastic sign (this is for your chain and lock, so some fool doesn't come up and cut it without yelling to you first)

The last 3 items are optional, but the 1st 3 items are necessary. The axe, machete, or baseball bat are needed to kill the zombie, you only need to choose one, which ever one you think will fit your personality more. The crowbar and bolt cutters are needed to be able to break in to stores, to gather supplies.

If you don't have firearms initially, you will want to get some fast, a home defense shotgun and a rifle with scope would be best (yes I know it will weigh a lot, but if anything have the shotgun). These will come in use when you forage for food. A word of warning though, if you are with a group of friends, and family, let the person that can shoot and hit, use the gun, bullets will become like gold in these initial days.

Part 2 will come sometime, but this will at least help you initially.

Perhaps you should add "slow person" to the list who can keep watch or be used as bait while you escape; also, a flame thrower would be good for the birds.

I will add that info into the next part when I write it. This is going to be a ongoing theme, until I get bored and move onto my next theme. I think

Have you considered adding the CIWS close defense gun thingy to the list of things to have in a zombie attack???
