Stories of the Undead Inferno (Unofficial) Expansion FAQ!

You're free to change it however you want it if it makes it more enjoyable or challenging.

I do play that it can spread to buildings and not grass because, its the dead corpse that is actually burning, not the grass. That way if a zombie dies next to a wall its burning body can still spread, but the building on fire can't spread to a grass space. That was the idea, but as I said play it anyway you find it most fun. I always love making it harder for the Heros anyway so go right ahead.

You're right about the use of boards making a difference. I usually use random boards so there is always a mix.

In regards to your zombies moving out the building. I did revise it by including a burning Manor token which fits over the whole house ans the rules were revised they can spawn on any square within the building which saves the zombie several turns. I'm quite certain it is in the MEGAUPLOAD link, and I may have missed including it in this site becuase I didn't want to bother Sarku by constantly asking him to upload stuff for me. So try the other full download link if that's the case. In any case all the zombies in that particular scenario already start out on fire so you can just go burn down another part of town where the Heros aren't.

Regarding on how easy it was I'm not sure how your game went, but that's usually the strategy to shoot zombies out in the open before they get into your buildings anyway so maybe you just got lucky and found guns early on.

Also zombie autospawn should have been used, and it should work with just the 14 zombies, but using the extra 7 from Growing Hunger might solve your problems simply by having more burning bodies on the board.

I usually also have multiple zombies in a building to guard it while its burning.

Also, the victory conditions are rubble tokens AND spaces with fires. That makes a huge difference.

It's also easier for the zombies if you burn down half the building squares. By counting the total number of indoor squares and then counting the remaining at the end as opposed to burning half or more in every building. That lets you focus on the larger structures with a bigger swarm. That's how I usually play it anyway eventhough it's not written that way in the rules. It's less balanced that way, but that's how I prefer my apocolypses.

I'm not a writer either so please ask if something doesn't make sense. I hope that helps shed some more light on it, but just do whatever you have the most fun with.
