Nasty combos

- killed Zombies on the roll of 6 (Garden Shears)
- stayed safe and sound as long as she rolled doubles (Rebellious)

She was the deadliest bitch I've ever seen.

That's awesome. The icing on the cake would be if Jake or Stacy or Victor was in the game - ie rolling another fight dice for a Strange character in the same space.

I once had Jade with Endurance and Heroic resolve, whilst carting the the fence post around. Jake was in the game as well. So Jade was able to take out many of the undead from adjacent spaces. I like your combo better however.

That will be Fighting Instincts. It's an awesome card and one of my favourites. I cycle the zombie deck as quick as I can, but Fighting Instincts is one of the few cards I will hold onto, as I view it as a potential game changer.

It's best used in combo with something else, like...
- Desperate for Flesh in play, so you can utilise more Fight cards.
- Growing Hunger in play with the addition of an event like Cornered.

I tend to use one of the Chainsaws against a hero in this situation. The Garden Shears haven't been available to me so far.
