anybody getting play time?

I've been very fortunate recently to play with 4 others one Sunday afternoon. Introducing them to the game with Die Zombies Die. Now, as I've never been Zombies before I decided to call shotgun (darn girlfriend has always been zombies). So I thought I'd win for sure. Little did I know that 4 people = 4 minds, and thus 4x the tactics. No hero ends up doing an idle move any more. Although I did have a good run of Zombie cards, hitting them late in the game with hard rain etc. They still whooped me though.
And then I got to play the other day 1 on 1 against my girlfriend and finally got to be Zombies against her. It was my chance to redeem myself playing Escape In The Truck. What a nail biting game that turned out to be. It got down to the last turn and she had her heroes all on the truck. After she'd just blasted her way to the truck this meant that all my neighbouring Zombies were more than one space away, with no shamble cards or anything. So I couldn't get to her to fight, which meant she drove off with ALL heroes away into the sunrise with some very baffled Zombies standing around looking for something to eat. I can't wait till the next game. Maybe one day I'll actually get to win. But I seem to have more fun playing than winning, which is the sign of a very very good game.
