Now if only we were all in the same place and could actually use our training, rather than all around the world surrounded by zombies. :P

Or that's what I imagine my first thought would be in such a situation.

You may be proficient with these weapons and may have them at home, but who's to say you will have access to them when the Zombie Apocalypse hits? :twisted:

We will find some way of all all being in the same place at the same time.

That was the comment I was going to make. Say the game starts with all of us at a xyz-con. At best all I'd have access to is my pistol in my car. And that's assuming I can get to it.

The game isn't about us being ready and waiting. It's about us reacting and surviving with little to start with.

Right. Also, the most interesting aspect of the game might not be killing the zombies, but the interesting moral dilemmas that present themselves. Will you choose to be selfish or a team player. What will you be willing to risk for someone else? How conservative will you be with your ammo if you know you only have 2 clips with 9 rounds each? The game has 3 aspects, Physical, Social, and Emotional. Each can add strain and any can be the death of a character. Just being strong and having a good aim won't guarantee your sanity or survival.

Also, this may be a shorter game than some. I won't make it easy. It is the end of the world after all. Survival is the objective, but not a guarantee.

So we need a lot of overweight NPC people to outrun/sacrifice?

I'm not saying the rest of us would ditch and sacrifice @WalterPeck, but we would. :p

We've played with you long enough to know the kinda guy you are and know you'll be the first to suggest leaving someone behind! We're not really betraying you! Just preempting it!

I'll remeber that remark the next time a PC betrays his sellsail commander!

Look, I'm not saying anything crazy like society's laws are a shackle on the strong to protect the weak but I am saying any surviving hollywood actresses need to be aware I'm coming (pun inteneded) for them. Join in the fun or get out of the way! Lol

Dibs on Lizzy Caplan btw.

I'd like dibs on Halle Berry, Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Alba.

Foursome is better than threesome. :P

Though this talk of celebs is now reminding me of what happened in World War Z...
