Because a mob of undead bearing down on your pos won't break your concentration...nope.....not at all..... 

2 years into the undeadocalypse, dealing with zed will be about as mentally onerous as washing dishes.  Just takes follow through.

Couple of odd things about this episode.
They run into the 2 new survivors, they mention about being at a survival camp. No one asks about where it was, etc.
The go to the med school and don't everything there? WTF?
Where is Carol going? That did not look like a bad area. Just going to drive away?

A little GTFO action.  Hmm.  That's gonna make for an interesting discussion with that big black dude later on.  With as few survivors as there are in this world, he can't lie and say she's dead. 

I think black dude's gonna go hunting.

With the sparkin' that was going on, Daryl won't be happy, either.

I was wondering the same as you. Although, if that was the veterinary school, many of the things that did not end in "cin" might not be all that useful.

For those who watch "Talking Dead", next week one of the guests will be Adam Savage.

Also... zombies!  Thousands of them!  


Let's say you were sitting on hundreds of thousands of rounds of .223, and had an AR set up exactly how you would like.

How many people would you need to wipe out 5000 zombies from rifle range as they marched towards you at 1 mile per hour?  At what distance would you start shooting at them?


If it's just me all by my lonesome self, I could place a headshot every shot from 300 yards and closer, firing one shot every 2 seconds, with a fixed 4x scope of some sort.

Zombies moving at 1mph will close 300 yards in about 1/5 of an hour, or 12 minutes.  A mass of zombies 5000 deep where each zombie consumes 4 square feet will have a surface area of 20,000 square feet.  If in the rough shape of a hybrid squarish-circle mob, the radius would be about 80 feet and the width of the wall moving towards you would be about 160 feet.

12 minutes of constant shooting, 30 headshots per minute, yields 360 dead zombies.  All the zombies shot would be on the leading edge of the mass, hopefully the shooter is just moving from left to right or right to left, typewriter style.  160 feet of surface area at 2 feet per zombie results in 80 zombies per wave, so I would get rid of 4-5 waves of zombies before the whole mass closed 300 yards.  The 5th wave would be 10 feet away after shooting for 12 minutes.

If I had a fire team consisting of 10 total shooters, all capable of head shots at 300 yards and closer at a rate of 1 shot per 2 seconds, I'd have 3600 dead zombies after 12 minutes.  At 80 zombies per wave, we'd end up chewing through 45 waves of zombies, buying us an extra 90 feet after 12 minutes of constant firing.  This also leaves our flanks and rear exposed to stray zeds who  are not part of the main herd.

Fifteen shooters dedicated to herd destruction shooting at that skill and rate would yield 4800 dead zombies after 12 minutes.  They would push through 4800 of the 5000 zombies in 12 minutes, 60 waves which would yield 120 feet of distance for the remaining 200 zombies.  If zed is moving 1mph or 300 yards in 12 minutes, then he will need 96 seconds to cross 40 yards.  Fifteen marksmen can fire 200 shots in 90 seconds with no problem.  That just leaves flank and rearguards.  Add 2 shooters to the left and right sides to sweep up strays that would otherwise distract the main 15 shooters, and 2 to the rear.  21 shooters with a 500 round loadout should be able to eliminate that herd.

Read World War Z- (not the stupid movie). The final refined tactic to wiping out millions of zombies was very similar, though with a larger fire team, mandatory breaks for the shooters, and a large number of ammo handlers.

Y'all have to watch this video. It's frakking HILARIOUS!!!

Michone is going to make it aaalllll better. 

[Ben]

Maggie seems to be getting smart and is wearing some kind of armor.

Why did they go to selective fire on the zombies? Seriously?

Next week should be interesting.

That got me too.  One shot to the head guys!  We KNOW that works!  What a waste of ammo........
Only on TV (I hope...)

Replay of the scene at Hershel's barn.

And the gov if back in town!

[never_retreat]

Why the hell were all the guns sitting out side in a bin?
If the zeds were getting that bad at the fence you should have started shooting earlier. How hard is it stick the fence walkers in the head?

Oh yeah, that was the other thing. Are they going outside the fence to cut down saplings to bring inside the fence to poorly fortify it? Use the bajillion items you have inside the fence that are stronger than 3" thick trees, morons!

Anymore this show is seeming as if it's a documentary on how NOT to do things in a zombie apocalypse...

Freaking Hollywood writers.

The  is that they all saw Woodbury and how it was zed free.

Of course, maybe there is an implication of complacency with Rick's breakdown and whatnot.  Now they're realizing that you don't get a moment, not one to break down, breathe or stop.

[AZRedhawk44]

So, Governor has a track record of using zed as a weapon.

How would YOU go about luring 5000 zombies to move towards the prison?

[Ned Hamford]

Looking at that emergency buildup of Zeds at the fence, I couldn't stop thinking about how easy that would be to resolve if Carol and the hippy couple were there to help poke the sticks through the fence.  Rick is a terrible terrible 'leader.'

Maybe their IQs go up off camera. They somehow managed to not only find those two ginormous steel plates they are using for the main gate, but to also mount them and create a pulley system to open and close them. Of course this all happened between seasons.
