Trying my hands on Round Events

[donvercetti]

Thanks for the great advice all of you! Sorry I didn't come back earlier - work got in the way

Leave it as an optional (dot-valued) rule that the ZP can use differently-colored zombies for those spawned by round events.

I agree. The zombie count rule could be confusing, but I couldn't figure out how to get new zombies to spawn when the whole pool is on the board. I figured they could be mostly-NPC zombies, and therefore not count towards the limit (as they weren't spawned/placed by choice). Also, I'll check out the ATOE and FANG mechanics for inspiration, as you mentioned.

I have no idea what Bang! is. Will look it up!

Again, I like this idea a lot! Just trying to homebrew along with you.

Thanks! I really like your ideas for this as well, especially the plot twist idea!
I will definitely think of this when trying to come up with the cards. They can get really dramatic!
Dividing the cards is great as well, as the subplot cards would become mission-esque á la Risk, and that's a good thing!

Thanks! I will check those out!
