mechanical innovation is the word... remember, he has a button in his bow that controls it, and the arrows are loaded using a pivoting weal...

more like mechanically advanced than magic... I could probably make one.

If so, you will enjoy the success of being an innovative engineer and inventor as well as becoming a millionaire.

Best of luck with your future designs and builds!

Moving on in post apoc shopping subjects!

The next shopping location...your local Wal-Mart!

http://www.walmart.com/

Now this one will be a bit different...

Everyone gets a bicycle and a shopping cart, we will assume you can figure out how to put the two together, Tim says "make it work!"

You can have anything that will fit within, on, under that cart.

What would your list include?

If you choose too much stuff...then you will be onset by thousands of zombies or a band of roving raiders...either way if you take too much then you are caught and lose it all!

Good luck and success with your shopping efforts!

Okay, so with my updated list... now plausible: It may not be Walmart, but its still real.

A metal fan: melee or short range, not to mention it's looks will distract the zombie until it's through it's skull.
https://www.budk.com/product/Martial-Arts-Fan-Self-Defense-Weapon/172853.uts

and like earlier: a katana can't go wrong... they are light, swift, and hardly destructible.
This one is more modern, a bit wide though, but I expect performance. I really like the sheath.
http://www.budk.com/product/United-Cutlery-Black-Full-Tang-Ninja-Sword-&-Shoulder-Scabbard/159695.uts
This one is lighter, more traditional, and I trust Shinwa blades.
http://www.budk.com/product/Shinwa-Black-Knight-Black-Cord-Damascus-Ninja-Katana-Sword/159687.uts

And a few packs of these... cheep, simple, disposable.
http://www.budk.com/product/Smith-&-Wesson-Throwing-Knives-8in-6-Pack/176377.uts

and the 40 lb. bow and broad-head arrows.

so my armory:
2 fans
2 katanas
50+ throwing knives (I would probably stash most of those somewhere)
1 bow
30 broad-head arrows.

did I survive?
and with the two different sheath positions, I can carry both at once... and the fans (of course I'd duel-wield those.) could be kept in my pockets.

Who would have thunk it...Full-Tang-Combat-Ninja-Sword-with-Back-Straps, from Wal-Mart.



Very well then!

Lol...your previous effort linked to non Wal-mart sites Smiley

And that is it, just those items?

No sleeping bags, food, water purifiers, baby powder, etc.?

Yo guys know that a katana is actually a terrible zombie apocalypse weapon right? Bone is incredibly hard to cut through, that's why butchers use a buzz saw, not a really sharp knife. Plus you need to keep it maintained, and that means wasting effort carrying more resources.

Oh I know...and these are not real katanas anyway...snap and break with ease.

well, its a good think that my katanas are only my close range. and if one breaks, I've got another. also the reason why I chose the katanas from Bud-k... I trust their brands, especially Shinwa, United Cutlery is okay. Shinwa uses 2000 fold steel.

my additional armory:
Grip Gloves
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Big-Time-Products-22101-23-Small-Grease-Monkey-High-Dexterity-Pro-Fingerless-Glo/26966655
Paracord: (a couple packs)

Grappling hook (you never know when you'll need it... zombies aren't smart enough to climb ropes... most of them at least)
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Every-Day-Carry-Folding-Tactical-Heavy-Duty-Steel-Rescue-Grappling-Hook-33-Rope/31343954

and a water-skin
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Stansport-1-Liter-Bota-Wine-Bag/11962969

I couldn't find iodine tablets at walmart... of all the things they DO have, and they don't have IODINE TABLETS?

Is there anything else that I might need to keep from dying? (I'll hunt and forage for food)

Iodine treated water tastes so bad...I mean absolutely gross.

Better off with simple boiling and using filters.

Okay, I would probably get this... to double-check the water beforehand
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Watts-Premier-Digital-Water-Purifier-Tester/29444969
and even though this things tiny, its better than drinking crap-water.
http://www.walmart.com/ip/PurifiCup-PUR-2203-Purificup-Portable-Natural-Water-Purifier/28087417
this one looks good
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Gerber-Bear-Grylls-Ultimate-Survival-Kit/15935497?action=product_interest&action_type=title&placement_id=irs_middle&strategy=PWVUB&visitor_id=70686608936&category=0%3A4125%3A4128%3A1080844%3A1080845&client_guid=c84070cb-083b-4465-bc66-d61831201b16&config_id=0&parent_item_id=10927662&guid=ab9ee25e-e80a-4df5-9ff4-c3bd846b4375&bucket_id=irsbucketdefault&findingMethod=p13n
this one looks like it has some unnecessary stuff like soap... I think soap would be the last on my mind, also having both a blanket and a sleeping bag is unnecessary.

(slaps forehead)I forgot MRE's as back-up... but this is still probably better than MRE's anyway.

Did you read Rina's comments about being stuck in a Russian winter with limited bath time...as per soap?

Soap is important my friend.

Moving on!

Next shopping challenge!

Craigslist!
http://www.craigslist.org/about/sites

If it is still listed, regardless of being sold in a current craigslist page then it is up for grabs.

The limitations...

1. budget...total maximum budget, period, $6000

2. range...you may use any Craigslist page that is in your current state, where you live, at this moment...but it costs you x2 the price for anything not in your town/city...if you do not have a craigslist for your town then the closest one will be your town/city page (for our overseas friends, use the one closest to you as you can, be it in another country if need be)

3. post the current text from the ad as ads are taken down all the time, so linking is fruitless

The standard setting, world gone to sith...insert zombies if you like as per Walking Dead or not and just deal with humans in the chaos of post apoc, they are more dangerous anyway  Cheesy
