The Zombie Survival Guide Deck

The dead walk among us. This flashcard deck was created to provide private citizens – people with limited time and resources – with an emergency crash course in basic zombie survival techniques. Organized by theme, this deck includes commonsense advice that will be your first asset in a moment of panic:

Avoid dressing in chain mail, plate mail, or any other heavy body armor: Without the speed or agility to outrun your attackers, you’ll end up as little more than canned food.

Consider all factors when choosing a weapon: Once a chain saw runs out of fuel, it provides as much protection as a handheld stereo.

Know your enemy: Our greatest advantage over the undead is our ability to think. Use your head, and cut off theirs!Max Brooks is an author, public speaker, and nonresident fellow at the Modern War Institute at West Point.
