Let's play a game

[sabotabby]

Here's how it works, theoretically. One person says something awesome, and then the next person adds something to it to make it more awesome, repeat ad nauseum. Then I make a cartoon of it in my copious free time.

I'll get you started (based on the results of a Stitch n' Bitch conversation):

Fighting zombies ____________

Fighting zombies from a zeppelin _______________

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to fill in the blank with something that makes fighting zombies from a zeppelin even more awesome.

...Go!

P.S. You're supposed to respond to each other, not just to me.

A zombie-proof house should include a zeppelin launch in the attic; that way, when the zombie apocalypse comes, you load up supplies, and take to the skies, touching down on grocery stores and the like to restock.

We were counting on the (44 metre high) pyramid built near the house to attract the first attack wave while we make our escape through the fields. But now that you mention it, I think we might just have a zeppelin ready tied to the tip of the pyramid. (it's true about the pyramid by the way - people in Russia are into that sort of stuff)

I think the pyramid is best used as a decoy. You cold put a meat-filled, motorized mannequin at the top for bait. And / or you could have a second, hydrogen filled zeppelin at the top of the pyramid and detonate it when enough zombies reach the top.

How many zombies can fit on a tip of a pyramid?

Well, there would of course be a tall ladder at the tip connecting it to the zeppelin. This would allow more zombies at the top. I'm envisioning the full effect to create a bottleneck cluster at the top with zombies less effectively climbing on one another as well. The zeppelin itself would also be huge to that it's flaming metal carcass would cover most of the pyramid as it collapses.

Many thanks. In the international tradition of science, we should all pool our knowledge against this global threat.

Of course my methods are almost prohibitively expensive and wasteful. But if there's one thing we Americans know, it's how to wage war on borrowing. That's what credit cards are for. We just have to max them out at the earliest stages. After all, it's not like we will have to pay anyone back. And since the system is electronically automated, parts of it may continue to function unmanned.

Brilliant.

Of course, the zombie-proof house should be surrounded by a spike filled moat - like a Burmese tiger trap - and an electronic defense system that can distinguish between the shambling un-dead and the groggy, pre-coffee living.

[curgoth]

The only problem with a moat is the Leinigan vs the ants problem; the zombies will just keep coming until the smashed zombie bodies fill the moat and the next ranks walk over. An acid moat might do better, but it's still just a delaying tactic to give you time to fully load up your zeppelin.
