Hi all,

We are going to play SoTF for the first time tonight (really excited!). However after reading the rules and reviewing the cards I have a few questions:

1. When do you play Survival Tactics cards, that remains in play (Survival of the Fittest, Go for the Head etc.) or are unspecified on the card (Ammo Belt etc.)?

2. If a Z moves "through" a corner of a building, with a barricade on 1 wall, does it have to roll? (I would say no to this one, as it can help the heroes to keep a z moving towards them with z hunger, while barricading and reinforcing only 1 wall).

Cards:
Mostly I have been wondering if it is right that I have 3 barricade the windows in my Survival Tactics deck, and 2 hunting rifles from the Hero Pack 1 expansion.

Do you have the same?

Cheerio,
ST

Hi Sov,

Here what my group does :

1) The survival tactics that have no indication can be played at any time. Can be a frustation for the zombie player (in this case me) wondering what heroes are holding up to. More then once I got the "in your face" escaping throught sewers or barricaded building while I was attempting to move.

2) If one wall has a barricade then zombie must roll to pass. Yeah they are stupid... Zombie03

Can seem unfair, but in the end zombies always pass Zombie17

Reinforcing means wound ,not searching or both.

For the cards I am pretty sure I have 2 hunting rifles but not sure for barricade the windows, I will check but at least 2.

cheers

Morgolon is right about the corner of a building question, having played SoTF with the fine folks at Flying Frog. It was specifically brought up. And if the barricades are reinforced, the zombie must attempt to get through the more reinforced wall. Dunno about the survival tactics cards, though, since I don't have the expansion myself yet.

Hi,

I checked my cards and it is 2 hunting rifles with HP1 and 3 barricade the windows in SotF

Cheers for the answers guys (and possibly gals?!?)!

We had a blast although two of the scenarios seemed a bit random... Ill write a review after sunday when we have a whole day of gaming Watchmen02
