Therefore it is entirely possible that the army units the main character encountered at the end contained tanks. Good Story Tanks were in fact deployed in WWZ at the start before they were realised to be ineffective against the living dead, they were also used in the rare event that the army encountered an outpost of people who were unwilling to surrender e.g. those who had used the war as an excuse to create their own little kingdoms, when they invariably fired upon the army or decared hostilities then the army would utilise tanks.

Good Story

So she said. Some rape survivors actually pretend that they managed to fight it off at the last moment, because society has thrust such a stigma upon the victim instead of just the rapist. Lack of willing women is never an excuse for rape, with masturbation, the only point I see in having sex with someone is to /share/ an intimately mutually good-feeling experience anyways. ...and I've always thought of the zombie wars as a metaphor for how prone we are to numerous plagues. If our system weren't so fucked when we don't have to leave it, we'll be alright. All one needs to survive an influenza plague, is to stay home, and of course, keep one's immune system high. A majority of us probably don't have the money it takes to stock up 3 month's supply of food, or call in sick though. If people weren't living paycheque to paycheque, we'll have less bouts of flus. If everyone were healthy, sane, well-homed and provisioned, there will be no zombie crisis, ever. First zombie comes, everyone just hole up inside their home and wait it out. Or shoot it. If everyone was sane they can have guns.
