Well, it's that time again... a time to get down and dirty with a a Zombie Survival Meme! What can I say? Anything with Zombies almost always gets a sequel! Whether it's better than the original or not is up to the viewer to judge but I think while not perfect, this Meme gave a lot of options.
Having been impressed with the previous Zombie Meme, Rennis Tora went about and created his own -- http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5454631 -- and giving the option for others to try their luck at creating their own Zombie Meme with their own options.
How could I resist? ;3
This time however, I shall explain my choices! Granted, my choices have changed with time, thanks to talking to a professional survivalist but these are my initial thoughts.
Head: MHIC Grade Motorcycle Helmet. Being a piece of civilian-available military hardware, this helmet takes a hell of a lot more shock than a regular one can... and it has a radio build into it, meaning that's one less piece of gear I have to carry in a backpack. However, this item doesn't breath, so it's best to keep the visor flipped up when not up against a zombie.
Torso: Leather jacket, pure and simple. It's a light-weight material that is dense enough to act as a protective armor until something better is found, something with Kevlar.
Left Arm and Shoulder: In this case, a wrist gauntlet with sharpened knives. I'd never want to get into such close-quarters combat with a zombie but the fact of the matter is, it could happen in a space where even my main weapon is useless. Time for a big, sharp knife into the Zombie's eye socket or the soft pallet under the jaw and up through the roof of the mouth.
Right Arm and Shoulder: Ammunition Case, to hold extra ammunition, be it Magnum Bullets or Shotgun Shells on the exterior or in the pouch.
Legs and Feet: Black pants tucked into knee-high leather boots. Keep clothing tight, so Zombies have nothing loose to grab onto... and again, like the jacket, leather makes for a mundane armor, protecting me should I have to stomp on some undead skulls.
Main Weapon: A Machete, preferably of the Kukuru style. It's sharp, strong, silent and even comes with grips for the other hand should the weapon get stuck. Remember kids, often, suction will happen, as it's a body's natural defense to keep from dying by having the item lodged in stuck so bleeding doesn't happen as fast. Even with a rotted body, suction can happen.
Secondary Weapon: A Sawed-Off Shotgun. While normally a hand-crafted creation, there are professional models out there, such as the Italian Lupara. Sadly, such is illegal in the United States but damn it, it is THE weapon for people like me. Less weight to carry around, better chance for destruction for those of us without decent aiming skills and even faster loading due to having to load less shells at a time and less weight to manipulate when using it: and this model has a break-away action as well, allowing one to open it and cause empty shells to flip out. Admittedly a "Pray and Spray" weapon, one needs to keep in mind the big boom... is going to attract zombies so fire and RUN!
Inventory: Ah yes, what could I logically carry in a backpack?
1. A Smith & Wesson Model 500 is a definite, a very simple revolver that uses powerful ammunition, it has less moving parts than most guns and is actually easier to fix than most.
2 & 3. Of course, I'd need to carry ammunition for both weapons: Shotgun Shells for the Lupara while the Model 500 can handle its own 500 Magnum Bullets or even .325 Magnum.
4. A hand crowbar. A very useful took for should I need to smash in windows, pry doors--residence or vehicle--open AND even made a good make-shift weapon in an emergency. Slam my hand down atop a zombie's head with that tool in my grasp and CRACK! We're getting skull penetration.
5. Binoculars, of course are a good choice when you have to scout out an area and need to do it from a safe distance.
6. An LED Flashlight is a must so I can see in the dark without destroying night vision OR attracting the attention of anything else.
6. First Aide Kit. The life-saver in any apocalyptic setting. ALWAYS have one.
7. Batteries. I'm going to need such for a watch, flashlights, radio in my helmet and should I come across anything else of use that will need it.
9. Flask of Water. Yes, I chose a Batman Flask here for preference but people need to realize one thing. Bottled Water... those plastic bottles are no good. Microbes still live in the water and feed on sunlight. A dark container will keep water fresher, longer.
10. Beef Jerky. It takes YEARS for this stuff to go bad... admittedly, it's salty as all heck and will make you need more water, but salt is the most basic electrolyte and will help you maintain the energy to keep going along with the basic protein.
Location: Here, I've chosen a lovely view of Hartford CT... because like many cities, the Farmington River can take you through it, giving me a lovely number of places to raid for supplies and give me hiding spots.
Home Base: Nothing safer than getting to where the undead can't. That includes a lovely Long Range Police Boat. Admittedly, stopping for a night can be dangerous should you anchor and somehow a zombie actually gets the idea to go into the water and climb up your anchor chain... that is why I would choose a model with a railing. Even if I had to settle down for the night, I could set up rope or wire along the railings with cans or metal bits hanging on. And if the noise doesn't wake me up, the interior cabin with bullet-proof glass WILL when one starts banging on it, giving me time to make a plan on how to deal with it.
Vehicle: A Dunbar Security Truck. I'm going to have to go inland at some point for supplies... that means protection and something very powerful to act as a plow should I need to push stopped cars or other vehicles aside. Plus, as it's so densely armored, it gives me further protection should other survivors come about and decide they want what I have. I will admit, it does have one downside. The back portion only has ONE entrance so if I have to seal myself in... I am screwed!
Although I have made changes, that is my initial Zombie Survival Plan. I hope you have yours ready when the time comes... YOU'LL NEED IT!

Nice! My only gripe is the overkill in the firearms side of things. Do you really need two very powerful weapons? Both of which come with very bulky ammunition, limiting how much you can carry. And when it comes to Zombies, a .22LR smushes a brain just as good as a .50, but you can carry a Metric fuckton of the ammo without even noticing it. The other bonus is that with the right supressed .22 rifle setup, you can do some squirreling/bunnyhunting with a virtually silent weapon, so not drawing in more Z's.
A .22LR can be effective against a Zombie up to about 100-150 yards, if you're a decent shot, and has such small recoil that it won't jump a rifle all over the place, making for easy aiming from one target to the next. Something like an Armalite AR-7 would be ideal, lightweight, folds down to about the same size as the .500, Effective to 100 yards and magazine fed.
The .500 on the other hand will be slow to aim, limited to five rounds before reloading, and is pure overkill. Unless you're worried about Zombie Bears or Zombies wearing Kevlar helmets, you wouldn't need something that powerful. And for half a kilo more you could carry an M4 Carbine.

Hrm, maybe I will...I did one a few years back, but it was more of a joke than anything serious.
I'm also kinda stuck between doing it with what I dream of having, or doing it with what I actually have. Although on some points...what I dream of having is what I actually have.

I was about to fill one in myself...but I got lazy. So I figured I'd just post a couple links to the gear I carry on a day to day basis, and thusly what Zombies are likely to encounter.

Actually dude, unless they intentionally add salt to it, jerky isn't any saltier than the porterhouse you get at the local steakhouse.
Also, you'd be better off with a crossbow than a shotgun. Not only is it quieter than a shotgun, [it can do about the same amount of damage too], if you're a good shot you can re-use the bolts to kill more zombies. After all, the noise made by shotgun blasts can be like ringing the dinner-bell to the zombie horde.

Hm no teammates thistime?(they got nommed? )I think its best to warn you a lot of your weapons have a very high degree of splatter value which might not be smart with humanoid piles of infection not to mention the chance of gore splattering on your motorbike helmets visor.The motorbike helmets a bit of a two edged sword too but I cant think of better head defence,Just remember that itll mess up your field of vision and hearing so look around more.

In reference to your orginal meme with the last words and battle anthem: my last words would prolly be "Jumalauta!" which pretty much means "God dammit" in my native tongue. As for battle anthem: Powerman 5000's Bombshell! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIZ5FcV64EE
