Ooookay, while I'm sure it'll be awesome to play, whoever invented the term zombivor should be taken out back and shot.
In the groin.
Repeatedly.

Yeah, that sounds silly. Not overly enamoured with the zombie survivours tbh. Id much prefer them as sentient mini bosses.

Well, the devs are French, so go figure.

Three actions, always targeted last.. They really hate us now.

That sounds horrific....

Here's hoping the new assault rifle allows for some evening of the odds..

I would like to see a rule allowing you to lock a door. You may need to hide and bunker down in order to fight the dogs. Otherwise you are just leaving a Survivor behind.

Although i guess the new zombie survivors could just tank it out for a while.

Yes but 2 dogs can still potentially kill a zombivor quickly.

Spoiler 8: Another group of survivors, zombivors and toxic walkers... Tomorrow two other pages of the rulebook. No, Markus, no date yet.

Looks like we're not only getting a kickstarter but a second game as well. Zombicide Prison Outbreak!

All of that sounds pretty stellar

Standalone too, interesting they managed to keep this under wraps

Is this newsworthy enough to be put on the main news forum btw?

This Kickstarter is going to get a small fortune out of me with the Mall Expansion (with 10 character minis, loads of toxic zombies and tiles), the prison standalone game (with 12 character minis, loads of berserker zombies, dice and tiles) and Zombie pack# 5 Dogs. Can't wait!

The Zombie dog pack being 'Zombie Pack #5' also raises questions as to what numbers 2 - 4 are (1 was the Walk of the Dead box). Is pack 2 additional toxic zombies & 3 additional berserker zombies? Still leaves pack 4!

Perhaps this thread should stay here a new one for ongoing Zombicide discussions and a new separate thread over in the news section for the new expansions, sequel and kickstarter news?

Sweet hey-zeus crisco - maybe finish one kickstarter before you start 6 more.

Great Interview this is going to be an expensive KS but with a serious amount of content done in one go - I better put a few hundred dollars aside, they should potentially break $1 million with this one.

SPOILER #11: Berserker fatty! Berserker zombies used to be violent-minded individuals. Their lust for blood now makes them impervious to most damage: the only way to kill them is to destroy their skull.
In game, that means they can only be killed in Melee Combat. Simple, but with dire consequences: imagine a berserker walker "shielding" a bunch of standard runners just one Zone away...

Does that mean they're immune to molotovs?
not sure about the friendly fire in the standard rules, and therefore wouldn't take a melee character like "El Cholo" as it would mean that unless the other survivors were equiped with scoped rifles, I would be a dead duck.

I'm not sure that I like the idea that this is their way of bringing melee characters back to the game. Dave the Geek seems a better character all the time.

Odd to hear that it is a Kickstarter, didn't Guillotine Games deny that it would be a Kickstarter when someone from CMoN said that it would be? I think I will only be pledging for the Toxic City Mall in the Kickstarter, as I am not as interested in the Prison Outbreak game (me and most my group primarily use ranged combat, so it doesn’t sound like a good expansion for us).

They only denied that it would be a kickstarter starting during the last week of January or first week if February not that it wouldn't be a kickstarter.

Edit: Autocorrect on phone messed some words up!

Maybe they plan to do the Kickstarter without CMON.

They are still doing it with CMON, as they posted a CMON Kickstarter Announcements link on their facebook page saying: "No it is NOT the date announcement, however you can register here and you will get the opportunity to profit early birds offers..."

Well that sucks. My main internet access is through work - Im on overtime this morning - and stuff like FB is blocked. So it looks like no early bird stuff for me. (I will be keeping an eye out for any announcement that a new KS has gone live though.

Cool. Barricades. Now we can do a board game version of Last Stand (or whatever that cool Flash game is on New Grounds).

"Great for zombie splitting"? Not when they reproduce by mitosis. Any zombie crossing the carpark diagonally will become four zombies by the time it reaches the other side, and it gets worse if you've run out of miniatures.

Ned gets a Lightsabre!

As someone who took his brand-spanking-new copy of Zombicide to Gen-Con last year and then, surrounded by a kazillion options and new products, still sat with friends and played it for an entire day, i cannot endorse this much new goodness. Is there such a thing as too much awesome? If there is, this will be an excellent test case.

Also, El Cholo and his machetes have been my favorite since the beginning. The idea of going into more cramped confines sounds delightful, although i do worry about my trigger-happy friends. Might have to split off from the group, even though that rarely ends well...

These daily teasers are getting annoying because I want to play this so badly!
