So, I finally got a chance to try my new scenario from the supplement I picked up, "Revenge of the Dead." Coincidentally, I got to hang out with my one friend that introduced us to the game in the first place (his wife and mine have been friends for a long time, which is how I met the two of them). Funny enough, HE hadn't heard of the supplements on the web store, so I got to introduce HIM to something new about the game!
I cannot sum it any better than saying, I LOVED this scenario! I am so glad I picked up the supplement.
I actually got to try out the zombies side for the first time. Being as we were at my place this time, I let him choose sides, and he chose heroes because he usually plays zombies.
I have to say, I am not AT ALL surprised by this, but I loved playing as the zombies just as much. Anyways, this wound up being somewhat of a massacre, with my zombies basically kicking butt. However, not in a way that ruined the fun. It was still a ton of fun, for both of us! That is what I love about this game. You can masscare the other team, you can get massacred, or you can actually have a balanced/close game, and it is so much fun for everybody involved.
I do think this scenario favors the zombies quite a bit. It is a tough go for the heroes. But, the heroes did put up a pretty good fight, and killed off a few of the zombies.
I do love the idea of automatically getting zombie heroes. I wouldn't want that to be the case all the time, but I like that there is a scenario where that happens, because I think that is kind of cool as a little special stipulation.
At one point, I had lost count of how many zombies and zombie heroes I had on one more hero at the same time. LOL! Plus, I got a lot of lucky breaks. Lucky rolls, plus at one point, I had a remains in play card that gave all zombies even one more extra fight dice, and yet another remains in play that gave all zombie heroes an extra two! So, the zombies really lucked out, but it was definitely a scenario I highly recommend.
