Lovely stuff. Excellent bat report too. Really enjoyed it :D
Thanks.

Instead of InDesign or something along those lines.... I just use PowerPoint and it works great! 

I have not used Scribus.   I will look into it.  Thanks for the tip!
I've heard about people doing that. But can it be saved as an A4 pdf? I'm a bit rusty on PowerPoint. It's been about 10 years since I last really put it to much use.
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

Re: Infection Z - Finished... What now?

So after much play testing and re-writing (etc.) I finally have a finished set of rules. I'm not sure what to do with them now. Get other people to play test them, publish them???? I'm unsure.

Have a look at my blog and have a read. Any advice will be welcome.

That looks interesting. Maybe distributed it over a limited number of trusted people in order to get some feedback on the rules and may be some play-testing might be interesting before an official release.
When you write mechanisms that you have invented it sometime sounds obvious to you but not to everybody.

Once a few other folks have playtested, you will want to shop it around.  I tmight be tough as a lot of publishers all ready have a Zombie game though. 

If that doesn't work, you can self publish on the Wargame Vault as a PDF and print on demand.  That works pretty well for a lot of people.

Some great AARs, melnibonean! When are we likely to see the rules on Wargame Vault?

mjkerner - Somewhere along the  line I got stalled and lost my way during the editing process and then got sidetracked. Thanks for the reminder, I need to get back on to it and get the thing out there.

I think they came from Offensive Miniatures. I got them a long time ago so I'm not 100% sure.
