Silver is for werewolfs
Wooden stakes are for vampires
Decapatation is the best way to stop Zombies. Sounds easy, but they usually travel in packs, so always keep moving if you find yourself confronted in the open by them. Even if you are in a baricaded area, make sure to have an exit plan.
Just climb on top of your roof, with a rifle and lots of ammo. Bring a radio, MRE's and a couple gallons of water. You might want a shotgun, in case one gets smart and figures out how to climb up.
Shotguns are the ideal zombie dispatching weapon. I would even grab a sword or machete in case you run out of ammo. Of course, you want to bring a single hand grenade, so if you get bit, you can go out like Will Smith in 'I Am Legend.' :biggrin:
Flamethrowers, Baby...Flamethrowers! Works on Zombies as well as Trolls and Goblins, although Goblins are reportedly easily fooled and can be diverted and misdirected by the clever defender.
