LNOE TP BF: Lost in the Woods (6p)
Last Night on Earth Timber Peak with Blood in the Forest expansion

4 first time players and 2 experienced players. The experienced players got Jake Cartwright and Sheriff Anderson from a random draw.

Jake, Anderson, Nikki and Alice escaped the town and are hiding at a campsite in the mountains. This turned out to be a bad idea. Zombies surround the campsite. Alice quickly blames Jake for making a huge campfire the night before. Jake shouts back that it was not the campfire that attracted the zombies but the songs that Nikki, Alice and Sheriff Anderson were singing while sitting around the campfire. Sheriff Anderson attempts to tell the group that they should heard to the Thrasher's Mill to look for the radio Transponder but Nikki tells him he is wrong and the transponder is located at the old cabin. The heroes’ turn was now over and nothing was accomplished due to all the “Bickering".

The zombie take their second turn and the heroes think back to the first turn and are grateful that most of the zombies stayed back in the woods and formed a defense line. If it was not for that the heroes felt that they would all already be dead. Now their biggest concern is the "fire!" that started between our camp and the potential locations of the transponder. Nikki takes a "Pick Axe" from the camp and starts smashing zombies while the rest quickly gather any items they can from the campsite.

The fire quickly starts spreading and additional "Fire!"s break out forming a V shape between the camp and potential locations of the transponder. Sheriff Anderson shoots his way towards the Thrasher's Mill and Jake "Bash Heads" at the camp. Unfortunately luck was not on his side and he takes 2 wounds from natural 6's and kills only one zombie. Nikki's "Pick Axe" was "Pulled Away" but she bitterly said "Get Back You Devils" as she kills another zombie.

Luckily Nikki was still close by with "Bandages" and patched Jake up as "Smoldering Dead" starting walking through the fire. Several Feral Dead starting joining the mix of normal zombies and a couple sections of woods became so dark that we could not travel through them. This included one space next to the vast forest fire and one section on the hill blocking a path to the Tower Relay.

Sheriff Anderson kept blasting zombies by the Thrasher’s Mill. At one point he thought he ran out of ammo but by a "Lucky Break" he realized he grabbed extra before he ran from the campsite. This did not help the heroes hope of finding the transponder because the mine was now completely surrounded by zombies and a Behemoth. We just know the transponder must be in there.

Alice was the first hero to fall and become a zombie herself. Around that same time, Ed Baker finally crawls out from his sleeping back and joins the fight with his trusty "Logging Axe".

Sheriff Anderson finally finds the transponder in the woods near the Old Cabin with about 4 hours left until the sun sets. Nikki starts to run for the Tower Relay but the other heroes call after her to come back and help clear a path for the Sheriff to get the transponder to the tower. She reluctantly listens to the advice but this turns fatal she gets surrounded by zombies, killed and turned into an undead monster. An angry Agent Carter joins the group and starts heading for the tower.

Time all of the sudden becomes a problem when Sheriff Anderson makes a wrong turn and finds a "Dead End". Jake considers rushing to his aid but was reminded of Nikki's fate and if one more of us die the zombies will win.

The next two rounds were done at lightning speed due to time restrictions. The day ends with 2 behemoths attacking Ed at the foot of the cliff near the Tower Relay. Ed gets hit with a chainsaw from the first Behemoth causing severe damage. He was able to fend off the second Behemoth make his way to the tower relay accompanying Jake, Agent Carter and Sheriff Anderson for a human victory.

Everyone had a great time and the close finish where either team could have won made for a very exciting game.
