Heading to the mall - what do we need?

For our post zombie apocalypse shopping trip, I think we prob need to look for:

1. GUNS!
2. BIGGER guns
3. Ammo
4. Flashlights, batteries (maybe some wind up flashlights)
5. Emergency radio (wind up one or solar power)
6. Camping gear? Tents, sleeping bags, durable clothing (for heat and cold) GOOD backpacks
7. Cooking gear, pans, utinsils, water storage jugs
8. Matches, fire starting gear
9. Axes, hatchets, machetes, bats (useful and double as weapons)
10. Preserved foods, dried or canned foods

anything else? I'm sure I'm missing something

[AleBelly]

Headlamps to keep our hands free.
Fire starting equipment
Warm clothes
Solar chargers
GPS devices (the satellites should still work)
Maps/compasses in case the Air Force bunker that corrects the satellites go down.

[OGRE MAGE]

Looks like a good list so far.

[saalaria]

I eould add protective gear - at least pads for forearms but preferably body armour of some sort but of course not sure what of this kind of stuff you would get at a mall.

[Scott308]

Maybe a sporting goods store- hockey or football shoulder pads and helmets. Maybe a motorcycle shop for helmets (I know three members of the group may not want to wear those) and protective jackets...

[saalaria]

Also what i would call walkie-talkies. Radios security guards have - would be useful to communicate between cars

[Dram]

All that stuff would be at sportings good store.

[Bloodaxe]

Im behind with computer problems, work & school. On track soon.

Get your plan ready. Who is driving with who, etc. There are two trucks and a car. Lester's truck, one from a customer and Chance's car.

[saalaria]

Steve's happy to drive the truck for obvious reasons...

[OGRE MAGE]

Chingy looks to Lester for the game plan. His plans haven't gotten anyone killed yet.

[ybn1197]

Tucker will ride with Chance. Things have gone smooth that way and there is no point in rocking the boat now.

[badams30]

I think the three vehicles plan is good, and all the stuff everyone said we need to gather is also good. Perhaps one extra thing - we should try to scrounge up some gas cans and siphon/take/pump any that we can carry, just in case.

I say we load up, and head out at the crack of dawn. We'll try to get back to the garage if we can, if not, we'll try to find a safe spot to crash out.

[Scott308]

Derek will continue to ride with Chance as well.

[AleBelly]

Chance will keep driving. He much less of a beefy fighter than the others...

[OGRE MAGE]

If we need a third driver, Chingy will volunteer. Otherwise he stays with Lester.

[Dram]

Whitey will stay in the back of Lesters truck.

It truly pains me to say this but I need to inform all of my DM's that I am leaving the board.

After 2 separate instances that I've experienced in the last week, both of which I found to be totally ridiculous, I've lost my desire, creativity, and ability to enjoy any of the great games on here that I once loved.

I reluctantly take full responsibility for what occurred in both cases, regardless of how misinterpreted and misconstrued things got. I definitely do not want this to reflect negatively on this forum or any of its moderators. This board is awesome and was one of the few enjoyable things I got to do in my life in a very long time.

I apologize for abandoning the many great DM's and all the fantastic players that I've had the pleasure of gaming with, and making friends with, over the last year. You were all so welcoming and helpful even though I was completely ignorant of the PbP system (amongst other things) and I really appreciated that. You have no idea how much I've learned and how much I've enjoyed the ride. Thank you all!

[Bloodaxe]

No. Don't take it so hard. I'll miss Chingy. But you are welcome anytime! Real life happens. I'm backed up myself. Take care of yourslf, it was great having you play.
Update on the game late tonight.

[Bloodaxe]

Ok, I have to write down the seating/driving arrangement & then we can continue. I need to organize & write down who is driving with who, etc. I want to get it right. Hopefully tonight. Sorry for the delay.
