1. Could you list the 41 minis that are included with this? (more curious than anything)
2. Do you include stats for previous sets you've released, or can they be incorporated somehow?

Hi! Included minis are 20zombie cops, 5 fast zombies, 1Kid, 1Veteran Cop, 1Civillian, 1Biker, 1Zombie Hunter (all new), recoloured Bio Weaon, 10 Zombie Hounds. I will be releasing stat cards for previous sets on my blog (and new website when it is up and running), along with play test reports, scenarios and gaming ideas. Hope that clarifies things a little!

Yay, finally! Must head over to Rpgnow and get hold of it.
Just grabbed it and as Revaj i found no Hounds in the set. I got the Dog Days and Compendium set, so no problem for me. But i think u should fix this.
On the plus side - the design looks great and i hope i will get to try the rules soon.

I received 3 emails that the file has been updated on rpgnow and the flavour text now reads 59 pages. I have downloaded the new one ( about 56 MB and rightly 59 pages. The older is about 50 MB and 56 pages ) and it is fine. Maybe there is some problem (cookies or more) in your rpgnow account.

It worked. Could finally download the 59 page version. I did not read through all the rules yet, but i had to rate 5 stars.

Important!
Are there solo player rules?
Thanks.

Hay thanks zapasnik! Rhannon, I will be posting a single player battle report on my blog in the coming weeks, but essentially as the zombies follow the pattern of attacking the nearest human you can play solo! I recommend using less room tiles and reducing the number of item/weapon cards by halving the numbers of each weapon/item (rounding down). Makes for pretty fun, intense games, as the zombies slowly mass!

Mmmmmh.... really tempted . Any clue about the rules? I don't want the mechanics in full detail, but since i own a whole lot of crawl/skirmish-on-a-grid games, i'd be courious to know what this game brings on the table. (If someone wants to make some comparison, this is what i own/know: Space Crusade, Space Hulk, Aliens, Heroquest, Claustrophobia, Earth Reborn, Incursion, Legions of Steel, D&D Skirmish, D&D:AF, Doom the Boardgame, Gears of War, Descent and some other P&P similar games )

Hey Reivaj! Just drop me an e-mail and I will send you the file!
And Parduz-it is an exploration/survival game in which tiles are laid to reflect the SHPD precinct house. You need to find specific items to complete the mission and escape, and the zombies spawn as rooms are uncovered and they gain successful spawn points. The zombies are fairly easily picked off to start with, but once they start gaining a hold survival becomes a lot more difficult! Health and actions are controlled by the same points (so the more health you lose, the less actions you can perform), and there are modifiers for combat/damage etc. You also need to find a way of opening locked and barricaded doors, and working either with or against the other human players. Of course, if you are the zombie player then all you need is to kill all humans...
Hope that makes things a bit clearer ;D

Are diagonal movement and attacks possible in the game. I didn´t find anything about it. Another question that came up while reading was if the sides are qualifying for rear attacks?
|

Post by darkmook on Nov 5, 2012 11:11:03 GMT -9
Hey zapasnik-good questions.
Diagonal movement and attacks are permitted.
A rear attack is targeted at the rear 3 edges of the octagonal base. The sides and front 3 edges are treated as a frontal attack.
Keep any questions coming and I will answer them here and compile a FAQ for the blog!
Cheers!
