Welcome to Day 5!

So many components are ready, but the most important ones are the CARDS.

Zombicide basically uses two different card types: Zombie Cards and Equipment cards, of which Wounded Cards are a subtype (they are used on the equipment slots, although they of course are not items per se).

Let's talk about Zombie Cards first: When you draw one, you put Zombies on the board according to the highest experience level of any survivor (yes, that implies ...

Welcome to Day 4!

Today it's time to populate the board with... TOKENS!

Welcome to Day 1!

Can you already hear the Zombies moan and wail out there? No? Well, that's because we are not quite there yet.

Today we are going to start our rulebook. Why would we do that, when the rulebook is accessible online?

For once converting it into a Fantasy Grounds module allows every player quick access to the rules, plus we can later link the different characters, skills etc. into it. Basically it's going to contain all the content the ...
