He would rather shoot his antique revolver cause he has a hard time missing with it. Now as a ZP, I like to drop cards on the heros to make them remove those guns from the discard pile. Yesterday, sheriff Anderson got his gun and forgot to load it three times in a row, 4th time wasting his search to get it he hit, then lost it again... Zeds then removed all revolvers from the discard pile, sheriff Anderson now very ineffective... I like the guns how they are. This might be a good start on a revision or custom scenario rule set, but right now it needs some refining. Also I think even though there is five shot in the gun, they shouldn't be guaranteed kills. A revolver should still roll a D6 to see if the hero is on target with the 4+ to hit. Effectively you still have a gun that won't hit if your just sucking on the dice. EVERYONE has had them days...

Fair enough; Sheriff Anderson or Rachelle with Laying Down the Law are pretty unstoppable though. I don't know how many Resilient cards are in the zombie deck, but it seems disproportionate to the number of guns in the hero deck.

I will receive Survival of the Fittest in the mail hopefully sometime this week. I hear it is a real game changer. The person who plays zombies most of the time for us is starting to get frustrated with all of the guns, and to be fair, it isn't very fun for us to win all of the time. So I am looking forward to seeing what kind of cards will come with that expansion.

More to come!
