Thank you for the kind comments gentlemen.

YPU: I will be using a variation of my own Zombie Skirmish rules ( a WIP that seems to be dragging on a little!!). I'm having to rethink how I'm going to tackle the vehicles as my "modern" stuff deals with generic vehicles and I want a complete "build from scratch" system more suited for VSF. Point balancing is a bummer.......
Anyhow, the Anima Tactics figure is slim BUT very tall more 32mm than small 28mm. I'm not overly concerned with scale differences myself but she may be a little big for Perry Miniatures.

Hm, well if she doesn’t look to chubby or big headed next to one I could always grind down the bottom of her dress, a layer less and she might suddenly fit in fine. Of course my girlfriend may never forgive me for such ungentlemanly behaviour with another woman, deskirting her, my my.

Well if your looking for a game system then you could look at savage world showdown, free and has a fairly robust vehicle construction section as well.

How are you planning on running it? One player does the zombies and the other the survivors, or more of a both players do hunters and zombies have their own routine. In either case I am curious to your plans, and would be delighted to look the rules over. (homemade games are a bit of a hobby for me, in their own right)

I forgot to ask - you mentioned having your eye on another one of the Ramshackle Games vehicles. Does this mean that there's another steam contraption on the horizon?

YPU: The "Game System" controls the Zombie movement, spawning etc. leaving the players free to control their survivors. I have made sure it's easy to play solo, as a team or a couple of players controlling groups.
When I've got a new "draft" done I'll keep you in mind for playtesting if you like.

Here's a couple of old battle reports:

It would be a pleasure. Curious to see what you will do with the steam spider!
