Was walking through the desert, picking up some much-needed aloe to expand my existing garden with, when I see a pack of zombie dogs in the distance coming straight for me. I knock a couple down with a misshapen block of wood wrapped in barbed wire, but I'm being torn apart. Low health, bleeding, and infected, I run.
Found a wrecked car and climbed on top hoping the dogs couldn't. They couldn't. Using a first aid kit to regain some health and stop the bleeding, and tried to shoot at the dogs with my bow. Surely they couldn't chew through a metal car frame that fast, could they? ...They could. Either that, or there was some kind of invisible zombie somewhere that had a rocket launcher, because THE DAMN THING EXPLODED. Apparently car frames are highly explosive, who knew.
This goes in this thread because I somehow survived a car exploding right under me, which left a crater in the road a couple meters deep. Most of the dogs did not, and the rest got my club to the face.
EDIT: Was preparing for the imminent Blood Moon when I hear smashing sounds coming from the front door of my base(note: I've blocked off the front door with spikes, I use the fortified and spike-corridor-ed side entrance). Crap, just what I need, a pre-horde horde. I run around to the front and it's double-crap, all but two of the zombies were soldier zombies, the other two being a nurse and crawler. By then, all of them but the crawler(which hardly makes a difference) had lost their legs to the spikes. Two of them had made it through the outer layer and died impaled on the spikes blocking the front door.
After cracking their skulls, it took several trips to bring all the loot back inside. Among the haul was several gun parts, a complete and undamaged SMG(though of 100-quality, which is rather low), a good quality military helmet, some rockets, and some military fiber. One of the zombies that died on the front porch spikes had nightvision goggles and three feathers on him, so apparently my spike traps took down a zombie Assassin.
