Walking Dead Season 4 (spoilers)

[westie]

I dunno, in zombie apocalypse there was a scene where a guy was fishing and kept catching submerged zombies. I still think a high rise apartment building is best because you can block hallways and staircases, use the vent system to move arround and you have hundreds of units to scavenge.

Yeah, cuz being up high in a building really kept Merle safe. Plus if there was a fire you're screwed.

Boat, island FTW!

Well, and tons of zombies in the apartments. Also when that runs out you're screwed. Kind of the same as a boat. Fresh water is a problem.

I am build ing a floating treehouse barge on late Tahoe... winter might suck

Fresh water is a problem.

Um,

"The world‘s smallest electrical desalinator. Simplicity - The 40E contains 40% fewer parts than its popular predecessor, the PowerSurvivor-35. Simplified construction and rugged design make the 40E remarkably easy to install, operate and maintain. Compactness - Extraordinarily compact, the 40E can be installed in the nooks and crannies otherwise unusable in many yachts. "

Electricity is a problem too wheezie

Not on a fresh water lake.

Merle was on top of the department store. Cuffed and left by a human then did an inhuman thing by cutting his own arm off. And fire can be your friend. Make your building look less attractive to looters. Its all steel and concrete anyways, the only thing burning is the carpet and couch. I still got 30 floors left.

Common sense or not, they were running and being shot at. I think in that moment most people would just keep running thinking they're dodging the bullets.

Or would you just stop and ask what the deal was?

Well, pretty much all of them knew how to shoot carbines, and they saw the rooftop riflemen a couple times. Even on the run, they'd have to be asking themselves how gunmen could miss at pistol range with a rifle. Basically, too obvious that capture and imprisonment were in the cards... because otherwise they'd all be dead before they could've made one step away from the BBQ pit.

BTW, I hate to give away a secret from my zombie screenplay, but I have one group of survivors who are urban teens and wield no guns because like a lot of city kids, there are no gun stores and they have not been shown how to use or clean one.

So their hideout is in an abandoned construction site. They escape zombies by walking along the beams, so the zombies just trip and fall down to the bottom.

What happens when the bottom fills up with zombies? How do they leave without trailing a horde every time?

Not on a fresh water lake.

One turned toxic after a bunch of walkers fell in and drowned?

I'm going to assume most of those zombies die during the fall. Those rotting bodies aren't the sturdiest and chances are good there will be head trauma when they go SPLAT.
