B. We need to live.

[Stworca]

I'd say B... but only if you can kill a few zombies around your planned safehouse, and burn their bodies.

Might i ask where do you plan on bunkering up? Suggestion : In a house next to a gas station! 

[areyoua]

Well, there's a room in the back of the grocery store with one way in, the door, and one way out. No windows, and a bunch of food just outside.

All right, all right, we'll go to the hardware store, but don't blame me when Phil's head gets gnawed off. Also, I would encourage anyone interested in the game to check out http://cataclysmff.zxq.net/SMF/index.php, which is the fan forums for cataclysm, and is much better organized than the one thread here. I just like to think I can reach a wide audience. Don't prove me wrong.

Also, I've just discovered a way to make video of my adventures, if there's any interest, soon you'll be hearing my voice, and seeing all my mistakes.

The Hardware Store

Phil figured that a grocery store wasn't the safest place to be, so he set out for the hardware store. As he was walking, he discovered three zombies and promptly ran away. He was in enough pain without them gnawing though his shirt, but he couldn't resist taking out the one zombie that tried crawling through a window.



It was a few seconds latter that he realized that there were even more zombies in the building, totaling 7, so he started running in earnest, drinking a cola to increase his speed. Then, he saw a fat, pink zombie dripping in bile coming from just the way he wanted to go. "Dude, get away, I can't get by hatchet dirty, I've got to smoke on it later."



With the hoard catching up, Phil decided to duck into the sports store to the north to finish off the zombies.



"Argh. dude, lay off the beer, I don't need pink vomit all over my eyes!" said Phil after he burst the boomer open. It didn't matter much though, the zombies were right in front of him, and they were going down.He did have to use some first ai to patch up some holes in his torso, but otherwise he was fine. He took a Spatznaz Knife Techniques from the store, picked up and wore a utility vest, and some bandages, and moved on.

Once in the Hardware Store, he saw more zombies, and prepared to take them out from behind the window. All told, it was about 6 zombies and a boomer, so once again, Phil couldn't see anything.



But he recovered, and looked around the hardware store.

How much inventory space does he have and how encumbered is he. I'm thinking find a safe house and start moving some of this good stuff there.

[drkpaladin]

Something to improve your mood, I'd trash a couple more houses.  But the saferoom in the back of the grocery store might be a good place to return once night falls.  Any pharmacies near by? Some drugs might help haha.

Right, information update

Inventory

[Deviled]

Drop two of the flash lights, get 1 hammer, the bear trap and the wood saw.

Seconded. 

[areyoua]

So, I gave it a day, but no specific directions came in, so I get to do whatever I want! Well, kind of.

Robbing Houses

Phil dropped two extra flashlights, and he picked up a hammer, a bear trap, a wood saw, and a crowbar that would be essential for breaking and entering houses for some much needed cupcakes. He had to fight off a few zombies and boomers, causing more noise in his area, then moved on to the nearest house.



Phil got quite a rush as he cracked open the door with his crowbar, but it was quite a disappointment, as all he found of importance was some food. He then moved on to the house across the street, but it was only after a hard fought battle by a window and a door that he had time to look around.



This time, he found two first aid kits, a bandage, and cigarettes. He took a smoke, thought, "This isn't as good as cupcakes," and left. He then saw a yellowish zombie, but thought nothing of it until...



"Argh! Dude, keep it in your pants!" said Phil, before killing the zombie in two hits. He then killed two other zombies in a window, and proceeded to take inventory of this house.



"Hmm..., no, that's not cupcakes," commented Phil and he left it there. For some reason, and somehow, there was just a random zombie hanging around the house. It must have been its former owner, but it was still bizarre that it would just wait there. He saw a stairwell in this house, and he promptly went down hoping to find some goodies. Unfortunately, all he found was a bunch of water, which he took. He then decided that this was enough, and began planning his next move.

A. Head to the Grocery store to the NW to hide in the back crying reading.
B. Head far SE to the Library for more books
C. Something Blue New

[Stworca]

You have quite a few books, more than it's safe to read in one go.
A) It is.

[areyoua]

In case anyone's not noticed, Phil's got fast reader, so all these books will be done quite quickly.

[Stworca]

Still it's better to have some of those skill-ups right away, thus getting more books will be less risky (as much as it's possible during zombie apocalypse)

[drkpaladin]

Phil should put the coke in his nose. Then he can read all night long and gain some exp
