Reply to: What skills could you bring to a "Survivors" scenario?

It didn't do Steve McQueen any good!

That's because he was riding one that hadn't been invented yet.

Did you blow Megaton?

I'm not going to answer that on the basis of this being a nice and clean, decent sort of Forum.

As for my contributive skills to a post-nuclear or armageddon-type survival scenario :

• I've played Fallout on the PC.

Bring it on !

Once you have the combat shotgun + animal lover & mysterious stranger perks you're sorted!

Did you blow Megaton? I can’t decide if they deserve to live or die? I may do all the remaining related quests and then give them a few millennia of sunshine in a nanosecond… I wonder if the sand will turn to glass?

Yes it did, he had it in his garage in Bullitt

True, but he won't be escaping ze Germans, but overweight chavs. A kids tricycle could outrun most, unless they thought he had a McDs happy meal squirrelled away in his rucksack, and then he'd be stuffed whatever he did.

Having a medium sized off-road capable motorbike to hand is the best for initial escape.

I can shoot, process, butcher etc - and do.
First thing I'd do is get as far away from Civilization as possible -
too many dead bodies lying around which will cause too many health issues.
and run to the hills, near a good water source, with the contents of my gun cabinet and knife rack.

Thinking of it, probably will be there. Was going to creep up behind you as a Xmas surprise, get the evening off to a fun start. I'm due to be in London for a client meeting that day and am coming over on the ferry as I'll be bringing Xmas presents for family at the same time.

I'm flattered, I really am!

Beers all round then!

Especially useful if, as many suspect , the policy of assumed consent in taking body parts is extended to making food items out of them.

Soilent Green is PEOPLE!!!!!!

As many of you who know me, I've been gearing up and preparing for the coming apocalypse for years, ever since Tony B'liar got elected. Could see it coming. Have got myself super fit. Invested in loads of training in escape, evasion and survival. Done courses all over the world, even talked one client into a team building gig with that Swedish survival guy, was marvellous paid for holiday and learned loads.

So I suggest that I'd be best placed to lead the group, and anyone who disagrees will find themselves waking up one morning alone and left behind as I will not carry any slackers. This is survival, not a holiday camp.
