Zombies-Weapons of mass destruction,Pic heavy.

[General M@yhem]

Hi,
A few weeks ago, I set up a game at my local group. The premise was as follows...
It was set in the early days of the second gulf war. US troops were searching for weapons of mass destruction. Intel had been intercepted leading to an isolated settlement that had WMDs. Teams were to use extreme prejudice. Evac would be by Helicopter(or so they thought!). We used the All Things Zombie Rules by Two Hour wargames.Each player(3) took a 4 man squad of troops. Here are some pics of what happened.Apologies for iffy quality.



















Despite what looks like a massacre in the making in the last few pics , the team only lost one man.He was evaced out by Hummer.Everyone else legged it. Little did they realise that their buddy was now carrying the infection out side of the controlled zone...

Lovely. Too few zombies though.

There were more honest! I just forgot to photgraph them! If I did it again, I would roll for shots using Urban charts.It was the first time I'd run through the game and didn't want to overwhelm the players. As it turned out though, their autrifles were more than up to the job. I'd also have a small team of Iraqi 'survivors' to pour some fire on the troops.

Nice!

You could have always had him turn in the hummer, that always adds a nice twist to the game I find, (my last battle report, one of the troopers turned in the helo as it was leaving the table... very cinematic!).

Like the alternative theme too, ZMD's: I've read the comic, so have you thought about spawn points to reflect the story line?

Cheeta's done some zombie storage units, (sci-fi crates from Fenris Games) would be worth taking a look at those, oh and the turtleback and softback Hummers that Fenris do to bulk up your motorpool (got em and love em).


Finally nice Tag rangers/marines, like the colour scheme, very accurate.

Cheers

Thats a fun looking set up   The buildings look great.

Like Mattias I reckon that you need a few more zombies though.

My spawn points are here. 

The blue Fenris crates are based on a concept from a book called Patient Zero.  That book is all about Zombie WMDs (although most of the action takes place in the US). 

I enjoyed elements of it (and there is loads of stuff that is ripe for gaming) but it read a little to much like a Van Damme movie for my tastes.  It might be worth a look if you like gaming that setting though.


There are more photos and more blah blah about my Patient Zero spawn point on my blog (along with a small comment by the author of Patient Zero too, which I wasnt expecting   )

Cool game.  Your overhead photos makes me think of a shot from satellite or a UAV.

Great scenario, General
Its a very cool idea, and I can really see it being developed further with Baghad city centre
