ZombieTV: I Shot The Sheriff
« on: August 07, 2012, 01:57:29 PM »
Last week saw the second episode in a series of zombie games based on the Left4Dead computer games

Here's a photo to whet your appetite and a full report can be found on my blog here

Cheers. If you mean the pylons, they are Hornby railway ones, plenty on eBay if you search  :)

I've got the kibri pylons. they're 29 cm heigh, but their bases only measures 4 x 4 cm.
Yours look bulkier.
I've looked it up and found that they are only 21 cm heigh. Could you tell me their base dimensions ?
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,
for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Some cracking games there!

Great miniatures and scenery making it a serious visual treat.

One question for all you Zed fans out there:

What is the ideal number of zombies for about 4 or 5 survivors to take on to make it a hair-raising experience for them whilst giving them a good chance of sucess using the 7ombieTV rules?

Yep, I'm interested in those too...  8)
You wouldn't happen to know the scale of them?

I believe the pylons are HO/OO scale and from memory the footprint is 60-70mm square (don't quote me on that as the ones we used aren't actually mine and the owner is on holiday for two weeks...)

In answer to the number of zeds compared to number of survivors, I like to go with somewhere around 4 times the number compared to survivors. It's got to feel like an advancing horde  :)

Cool, I'll check my local hobby shop and compare with prices on ebay.

Cheers
