plans for the inevitable undead uprising

I sincerely doubt any average joe could swing his way through, say, 10 zombies and not fuck up ONCE enough to get himself bit, and eventually you ARE going to have to face a pack o' undead.

Let's look at it this way: say I live in Manhattan, and I'm trying to escape. I get in my car and start driving the fuck away, but my path is blocked almost immediately by a dozen or so zombies on the road. I have a few options:

A) drive through them, possibly sustain damage to the car and worsen my chances of getting far enough away to take a piss in safety.
B) get out of the car, march up to them, and start swinging with a hammer/hatchet/nerdy LARP weapon, use my mastery of kung-fu to avoid being bitten, and smash/sever some skulls.
C) get out of the car, take out my submachine gun, and carefully pop off a dozen rounds.

C sounds pretty nice to me.

You forgot option D: drive down a different street.

Really though, in that scenario you are going to be blocked off more by other people fleeing than you will be by zombies. Besides, your scenario requires that you have a submachine gun on you at all times and happen to have it when you are starting to flee from the zombies.

If however you don't already have a submachine gun, then I submit that you are better off fleeing without one than spending time scrounging around trying to get one.

My weapons would be a katana, a revolver, and a trenchcoat.

I still say that I could probably swing a bat faster than I could an axe or even a hatchet, and really there is no need ro a multiple purpose for it, its light enough to where its zombie clearing purposes are enough to make it useful. Its light enough to where I could carry the smaller multipurpose hatchet and still not feel the weight from either of them. And in the case with your four options, I'm going to drive through the fucking zombies, the car won't be any use to me anyway if I'm dead from getting out of it. And in a situation where there's a pack of zombies, I will exhaust every other possibility before I engage them, make no mistake. If it comes down to it I'll pick off the few with my pistol as I'm able and take the rest out if I can, because if I'm down to that I'm dead one way or another and fighting them enough to push through them is the only viable option. Say there are ten zombies in an alley. if the absolute only way out of it is through them, I'm going to go into a running tackling stance rather than a bat swinging one after I've emptied my clip into a few skulls, because it would do absolutely no good to try and fight through them, unless a couple were in front of the others. And if I did use my bat it would be to try and get by, I wouldn't try to engage them all, just try and force through a hole in their ranks. Now, admittedly a submachine gun at head level in that alleyway with the shots as controlled as possible would be a welcome addition, but you know what? Where the fuck in hell am I going to get an MP7? Its far more likely that I'll have a pistol.

Has NOBODY seen Dawn of the Dead? Wherever you are, there is a gun store in close proximity to your location. Make sure to buy a certified zombie-proof map before making your daring escape!
