Zombie Rules - Warlord Home Rules

1. Zombie Rules

Zombies move and attack per solo rules below.

Zombies appear on the game table through entrance points. They will arrive in packs, and randomly.

Each time a figure enters a building, the player roll in the Surprise Zombie Table to see if there are zombies inside, what number and type, and if they have a surprise attack.

Each pack of zombie and zombie solo has a card in the Initiative Deck. When the card is drawn the zombie pack or zombie solo activates and act per table below.

1.5. Types of Zombies

There are three types of zombies. They usually arrive in different ways, being the walker the main type. Runners are less likely to appear and Stalkers are the rarest.

1.5.1. Walker

The roaming zombie. Slow and weak. We've got the Guns. They've got the Numbers.

1.6. Infection

Each time a figure is wounded by a zombie it might get infected and in a short time become a zombie. Roll a die: On a 7+ he’s infected.

At the end of the scenario an infected figure must:

- Receive a shot of Anti-infection vaccine;

- Having a medic making a medicine roll: a 10 roll with the medic expertise;

- Roll a shock die: 9+

To these rolls, if the payer wastes a Medic Kit add +2 to the die roll.

If the roll fails, the figure becomes a zombie. Too bad.
