A few of my own rules

[serdel]

My ideas come mainly because of the fact that I am used to those from battle systems - hey reflect the reality. Maybe they favor zombies but that is not my intention (although I believe that zombies are not the stronger force, but that's a discussion for a separate thread). Now we need to wonder how do they match the zombie world. Ok I highly doubt anyone had seen a zombie so I guess movies are our only hook here.

a) well I don't think that we can argue about that - one man vs. one zombie is much much easier fight(for the human) than vs 2 zombies or 3 zombies. You mention that the spaces are big and represent a lot of space on the board.. so why is that the hero still needs to fight zombies in the same space as he is?
mqstout - what cards do you have in mind? Are they in any expansion? I only have the base game now. Any way the rule seems logical to me in a way that it should always in play, not in a card.
b) this one is my less favorite one, since zombies in deed are slow and dumb. We can remember the beginning of Zombieland when Columbus was running around the parking lot to loose the zombies. There are also more examples for that. So in fact I can give you credit for that one, that it can be easier for a human to just avoid a zombie. However 2,3,4... not as easy now - that's why the roll is 2+. Sth goes wrong - the hero tripped, a leg got trapped in a rotten floor board..
c) I don't think that 'shouting is a good explanation here. I guess that a human would be far more distracted by zombies crawling at him to notice any shouting from the surrounding. And a hero can easily hit his own fellow. This also reminds me of movie scenes where some guy is hesitating to shoot into a human-zombie fight not to hurt the other guy. That is a risk to take. But again, zombies are slow and don't doge the bullets so it's easier to aim - thats why 2+...

But thanks for the contribution guys :>
