The South Shall Rise Again
Zombie Games are probably the most over used Game
Theme out there (although Cthulhu is a contender). So you need a Hook to interest a non Zombie Fanatic who may have a couple of Zombie Games to spring for another one.(I give you District-Z) But here's another one I ran across on BGG -Confederate Zombies(Zeds) vs a Union Army patrol .Co-Op or competitive 1-4 Players(Zeds are AI).I know Deadlands a CCG has been there somewhat but TSSRA is a Board Game. I'm an ACW buff & this Hook got my attention the mechanics do give the illusion of ACW combat & period weapons but with straight forward rules. The 4 Union soldiers are unique as to Card art & the set up mechanic gives them items & special abilities the Confederate Dead come in 3 Flavors: Zeds, Revenats & Glorious Dead It's by Victory Games which produces a lot of small Games in a rather hit or miss fashion but this looks like a hit & its only around $30.The components look sturdy & the Soldiers/Zombies stand ups are cool.( I could see myself using some of my extra AWC miniatures as replacements). http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/1...rise-again Also http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/1206...again-pics OD Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain,— Wailing for the lost one that comes not again: |

RE: The South Shall Rise Again
interesting review, thanks.
I prefer games where the zeds are AI. ( or rather.. my gamer group as a whole prefers coop games.. vs PVP ) |
