A much-belaboured incredibly-late-coming introduction-to-me


Name: Matt Young
Call Sign: Cred
Rank: Field Lieutenant, Strategist, Combat Specialist
Primary Location: Point A Bunker, Wherever I Happen to Be.

"What? Surrender? Surrender is never an option! Using the last bullet on yourself is never an option! If you're running out of bullets, use your sword. If the zombies somehow destroy every bladed weapon in the world, use large blunt weapons (shillelaghs, cudgels, rocks, fists, disembodied zombie parts, etc.)"

"I feel like a zombie. You know-- the living dead. But without the living part."

Hey there! I'm Matt. (The awesome looking guy in the picture.) I usually end up taking a leadership position on a team, and plan combat strategies. I'm a decent shot, using handguns, rifles, shotguns or bows, but specialize in hand to hand/close quarters combat. Weapon of choice? As big a sword as I can find. I subscribe to the German school of broadsword fighting, but end up using many claymore fighting moves as well.
In my not-terribly-humble opinion, a rapier is no match for a good solid broadsword, in any form of combat, especially zombie warfare- zombies may only be completely killed by complete decapitation or blunt force trauma to the brain (bullets included). Sure, they can be immobilized, but what easier way of dealing with a shambler than to lop off it's 'ead with one of these?

My overall theory?- Grab the swords, Pack the spam, Snatch the guns, chug a caffeinated beverage, and roar off in the jeep, whilst listening to Celtic rock. Life/zombie warfare at it's best!

Deus Volt, Accedo Fieri At, Persevero! (God Wills It, Come What May, I Persevere)
