So I corralled my good friend into playing the demo. First he was the Lurkers then we switched. It was during set up of the second game that my friend (who in between had read over the rules with a fine toothed comb) informed me that it was a 2'x3' table that we should be playing on, not a 4'x4. Whoops. Anyway here are some photos and some minor narration of the battles:

Setup on the correct table:

The zombie assaults Frank Howard who cowers on the ground. Arthur steps in and chops the zombie while Frank assists:

Things we learned: The Meat Cleaver is a beast in close combat. Even on the agent with less attacks it was way better to have the cleaver. Assisted it was monstrous. Easy to kill the zombie.
Well it was a good test and I can't wait for my book to come in.
