That... sounds awesome. Will probably happen after the whole zombie problem is dealt with.

After the door is barricaded, ask if Charlie wants to quarantine you in a seperate room for a bit.

>>32285

Jim does so.

Charlie: "If you're gonna turn, it'll be at least, like, 10 minutes from now. Let's worry about the fuckers bashing down our door for now, dude."

Well... lets wait until they start opening that door up, then ax and shoot them over the barricades.

Bounce the molotov off the safehouse wall. Your teammates will laugh at your antics and dance with glee.

Check and see if he wants to go find a chocolate factory with you. Say we'll even give him controlling share. ...see if he picks up on the joke.

Jim dropped his axe outside when he was bitten!

Jim: "Hey, Charlie."
Charlie: "Yeah?"
Jim: "There's one thing I want you to know before they get through that door..."
Charlie: "..."
Jim: "If I die in here, you... you can have my chocolate factory."
Charlie: "FFFFFFFFF-"
*CRASH*

The zombies finally bash their way through the door, and are immediately met with four pistol shots through the doorway.

>>32483
Jim take west with your SMG on semiautomatic (or being careful to conserve ammo if that's impossible) while Charlie shoots north.
If they start to overwhelm you pull back to the bottom right room, which has a window you can escape through and only one doorway so that you can get the zombies in a bottleneck.

With any weapon, the RoF isn't the required number of shots fired; anyone can fire any number of rounds up to that number.

Jim opens fire on the newly-opened bathroom door, trying to conserve ammunition while doing so. He takes down two zombies, while using five rounds of ammunition.

Meanwhile, Charlie aims two rounds into a zombie attempting to climb over the barricade.

Smoke forming in lower right room. Charlie, there's no zombies in your firing zone you can see, turn right and watch the back for the telezed. Aim for the smoke and try not to freak out again.

Charlie was simply startled earlier; he had just woken up, after all. In any case, he shoots the bastard...

...but not before it can finish what it apparently came to do.

oh god damn it. try and kill the thing quickly, and toss the grenade through the hole.

>>32653
worst comes to worst, that body armor of ours should do pretty good at protecting us from zombie claws and teeth. So we can at least go down bashing their heads in with the butt of our rifles.

Jim has the grenade.

>>32657
Actually, and, once again, I may not have mentioned this earlier, the body armor is simply a vest and a helmet. It won't help much against a claw or bite, unless it is aimed directly at the chest or the top of the head.

Charlie kills the fast zombie, then turns his gun on a second one as it appears through the darkness. He pulls the trigger, and hears a click.

Jim is still unloading on the horde as it pours through the two entrances, creating a nice pile of blood-soaked corpses. He has about half of a magazine left.

JIM. ZOMBIES TO YOUR RIGHT. MAGET.

And imparting wisdom: Jim, aim for the head and spare yourself shots. If you stay calm and aim at where the head would be, usually you can succeed.

Of course until the special zombies come about.

Jim is trying to follow your advice, but these zombies are making it pretty damn difficult to stay calm.

In the other room, while Charlie is trying to reload his pistol, the fast zombie tackles him, slamming him against the wall.

Regulate your breathing and aim. Use a high powered weapon, aim between the eyes. Try and be quick with aiming. You can kill with okay as well as excellent aim. Really, other suggestion is keep them crammed in one area. Don't let them come from your right (if Charlie were to die) and attack from behind. Move your back against the corner, estimate where heads are and where you need to aim to kill, and succeed!

Look out for the short zombies though.

Also, knife might be best, Charlie. Close combat until you have a chance to reload.

Jim does so, to the best of his abilities. However, with the SMG's small caliber, it usually takes two headshots to do sufficient damage for zombie termination, unless the shooter is an expert marksman. (Which Charlie seems to be.)

Jim manages to take out three zombies with six rounds.

Meanwhile, as Charlie is fumbling with his knife, the zombie sinks a claw into his shoulder. He yells in pain, then jabs the knife into its eye, swirling it around until the bastard stops moving.

Charlie, grab the pistol and see if you can dodge n' backstab the zombie. Don't forget to twist the knife, just in case. Get over to the area that had the tv, use a aimed shot.

Jim, throw the pill bottle (if not able to shatter) to Charlie. If it'll break, throw a bandage.

Jim fires another six rounds, and another three zeds stop moving. They're really thinning out, now.

Charlie runs into the TV room, slashing at a zombie as he does so. It doesn't have much effect. He then asks Jim to toss the painkillers, and Jim complies. Charlie downs a few, and feels the pain in his shoulder fade.

Somewhere in between all that shit, he grabs the dropped pistol and reloads it.

Charlie, now reloaded and numb to the pain of his newest wound, drops the two zeds in front of him with two expertly-placed headshots.

Meanwhile, Jim puts one round in the closest zombie, then clicks on empty...

...then whips out his pistol, steps to the side to give Charlie some room, and they finish what is apparently the last of the horde.

It seems they're running quite low on pistol/SMG ammunition.

Charlie applies both remaining rolls of bandages.

Charlie: "Well... holy shit. Now what?"

Where are they going to do this? Ideally, they should be able to hold out there if more zeds show up.

Go into the lower middle room, and move your barricade up against the window there. If you can take watch shifts like before, you should last the night.

Jim and Charlie move into the middle bedroom, and somehow manage to drag most of their barricade through the pile of corpses.

Once there, the two simply nod at each other, and Charlie presses his gun up to Jim's head as they both sit down and prepare to wait...

...but nothing happens. They wait for what seems like hours, motionlessly, but nothing happens to Jim.

Satisfied with this, Charlie tells Jim he should get some sleep; it's his turn to stand watch anyway.

Is it possible the zombies can't actually infect people by coming into contact with them?

>>32943

It's more of a thing with saliva contact; Charlie's fine, but it might have been a problem if the zombie had licked its claws first.

>>32947
Wouldn't a clawed zombie HAVE to lick its claws? I mean, without regular and structure, they can't pick gore off of te claws, they would have to eat it off.

So clawed zombies have to lick their claws, because they have no other means to get food off their claws.
