The tile has some benefits. Larger buildings means it's a good place to bunker down and search for a few turns safely. (Also, very difficult to blow up in the zombie apocalypse scenario). It's one of the few (only?) tiles where the spawning pit isn't in the corner, which really does change the shape of the game. It sucks badly when taken over or lights out are played on them, but until then you've got a nice safe place to search that juts out pretty far towards the center of the board for a clear line of fire.

I don't yet have any of the expansions and I don't recall any scenarios saying "well-stocked buildings" at least in the main game. So at least for now, with what I have, I don't think that really matters.

Ahhh you dont know the ways of the Goddard, nor the charm of Amanda. Try a game with Johnny, Sally, Billy, and who ever else you want to start alone.

Well Stock allows for the Pick Up ability to be activated, regardless of the discard pile. So, you can use the Pick Up ability from the Hero Deck if it is not in the Hero Discard Pile.

ohhh Personal fav, Jenny with the Baseball Bat and a Crowbar.

As a frequent zombie player I love that board. Not only is it kind of useless for the players, I have often trapped starting players in there. Its a great place to use an early lights out.
