Zombies you can outrun - the mistakes of your fellow Heroes you cannot.

You can get blobs of virtually any size from Frozen Planet Studios. Tell Brad I sent you and he'll give you a great deal!

After my first quick read-through I think I have a few questions, but I have to take notes during the next one.

One thing I DO remember is: Last scenario says that the Hillbillies win if they can hide for long enough... how long is that?? It may have eluded me, but I don't think the scenario has a set length?

As this is version 1.0, of course there will be stuff to dsicuss, but hey, Warhammer is on... what, 7th Ed.?... and GW had to do massive errata within a week after release.

And this is meant to be lighthearted fun, not strict tournament rules...  :)

Seven turns is generally what we did for scenarios. I must have omitted that by mistake. Thank you for pointing it out.

OK, seven turns. Easy to remember (Lucky 7)  :)  It may be in there, somewhere, I can have missed it, because I did not pay attention the first time around - just did a quick read on the commuter train (I get a lot of strange looks from my fellow commuters, whenever I pull out a ruleset and start reading  lol).

I am embarking on a MASSIVE zombie project (picked up parcel from a joint order at my club yesterday) as of today, so some time will pass before I start getting my hut, still, barn, saucer, cornfields, aliens, hillbillies etc. ready, but I already started painting/collecting stuff for a similar project a couple of years ago, and apart from needing some more hillbillies, this game will cost me next to nothing to dive into.

I may, however, paint the occational other figure in between the zombies - one can only stand so much putrid flesh in a row...  :)

Do tell?

Not really the right place, and you'll diz me  ;) , but I just got 120 WF plastic zeds for a joint Dead Walk Again project at my club; 30 of them I'm going to trim, assemble, base and prime for a fellow club-member to speed-paint for me - he'll then get one box (30) for himself when mine are done, and another box when he has done the first 30 for himself.

In the meantime I'll do the last 30 for myself, so we'll have 120 painted zeds + about 20 metal ones I have already, plus what the other 3-4 participants have painted in the meantime (about 25 per person, my guess).

I had to act quickly to spread the infection, as soon as I had bitten a couple of guys and a gal, and I got the chance to get in on a joint order from Wayland Games, so here we are...  :)
