    And if another sees it roaming out into the countryside, it will follow. And another that sees that one. And on and on. Next thing you know, you've got a gang heading out to your "safe" area.
    Zombies only pursue so long as they know where to go. I think this is evidenced by Fiddler's Green not having a horde of straggling zombies roaming up after every scavenging run. They may follow for a time, but a few turns in the road and they're off the trail. And if a few stragglers randomly wander their way to your base, well that's what rifles and guards are for.

    As for not being stopped by inhospitable terrain, of course they'd be stopped. A ditch and drawbridge sealing off the only road would be enough to stop a thousand zombies, or at least give you time to dispatch them as they funneled in.

    yeah, obviously they'd be stopped by inhospitable terrain - we can climb over boulders, carefully pick our way across swamps, cut through dense vegetation, etc. A zombie is so coordinated that it can't even use an escalator.

    if the mts were to channelize the zombies to a place then couldnt you channel them off a cliff or into a tar pit or some other type of trap that would either kill them out right or maybe fall into a river and just get washed away
