True horror

[vikinglad]

I think Emp is right about taken over, right? I think that you would run up and look in the window, see the zeds (who also see you and become alerted; kinda stinks, but OK), then decide whether or not you go in. The "Oh Shit" I guess would come from looking in the window, then having to decide whether to change plans or sally forth.

For me, the OH SHITs come from the zombie and hero cards. They add the element of horror to the game I like. "Shamble... Oh No!" "Locked Door... Geez!" "Oh MY God They've Taken The... NUTS!" "Bickering... you are kidding me!" "Resilient... eat me!" You know how it goes.

Anyway, it seems like Kinkomaster's rules would be most fun for a GM sorta player that enjoys providing a cool game experience for everyone else at the cost of some additional tedium for himself. This is how I play zombies with newer players, and I imagine these rules could be fun to try. However, if playing to have an action-packed battle to the end for everyone, they may be a bit cumbersome and limiting for the zombies.

Only one way to find out. Let me know how it works out when you playtest it. I am interested to see where this goes (the rules, I mean).
