      Now there is an idea.... what about zombies combined with the middle ages? Zombies inside armour and stuff! Whoa

      In Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, they had 'walkers' chained in a warehouse, anyone who wandered in might be attacked. But if you were the one who chained them, you would know there was a path you would navigate.

        I think zombies in armor would just be stationary zombies. That armor was upwards of 100 pounds.

          And since we can assume zombies generally lack strength, adding 100 plus pounds onto their already dead bodies would effectively make them boat anchors.

              True you could catapult zombies to infect others, but if we're looking at this from a Walking Dead perspective, the virus is airborne. Just breathing infects everyone, and upon death do you turn.

              Now using zombies to try and infect faster, yeah I could see it..

                Sounds oddly like small pox blankets.

                  And if they have been turned for a while,.. you have flying parts, not just flying Zombies...

                    That's true, I was thinking of a more traditional zombie outbreak scenario there. More of a "this would make for a great zombie genre" rather than using the Walking Dead which is pretty weak as zombie stories go.

                      If anyone watches Mr. Robot it was ruined for me at the end of Season 2.... Logs into a makeshift Windows box with another users creds on her PC... never deletes it and copies out a ton of data from the profile. It kills me, the show was doing so well up until this point. Well, he did have that sick Optiplex 745 he was hacking on in Season 1 but we won't talk about that.

                        Just reminding people of this thread because I'm trolling through old threads being nostalgic on a Friday night during COVID.

                          If you really think about it, with COVID-19 so many people have been like the walking dead, as grim as that is. And COVID-19 is semi airborne through fluid transmission with sneezing, coughing etc.

                          Being at a new to us colo facility today actually reminded me of this series and what it would be like to have to shelter away from everyone and thing.

                            It's true, it's like we are living through the Walking Dead for real almost.
