Do we really need two zombie chain games in the OT Forum?

This thread IMO ought to be moved to the Survivor Games forum.

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

Let me know if you have any questions about the game. We have a number of new folks and it pays to ask given the rather strict AP limit.

I had fun attacking the new mall. Killed some humans, gained some health back, caused a scene. Good times to be had by all.

Question regarding Zerging, I have a human alternate now living in Vinetown, when/if we make our way back there and I don't let anyone on here know who my human alternate is and I play him as a complete separate entity without any bias is this still considered Zerging?

Technically no; zerging is using multiple accounts to multiply a single player's efforts -- but it really is for the best if you keep alts several neighborhoods away from one another.

+1 Your alts should never come within in 10 blocks of each other, or the same blocks within a day or so. Not only may you face the game's automatic anti-cheating measures, and it's the standard for the ZL, but you won't be playing as separate entities. You'll know more than you should.

E, will your human alt waste ap making a trip to that X your zed just ruined? Or will he know to spend his ap more wisely? Maybe take an outdoor shortcut instead of what he would find is a smashed freerunning lane to another X? When his safehouse comes up as a target will he wait to be devoured by the Nurglings or will he always be a step ahead? Let's say your human overhears another survivor mention they're heading to where you were thinking about sending your Z, or just repaired that X that your Z might check, but it needs more cades. Are you going to have your Z attack the wrong building? If this seems extreme, I've never seen a counterargument for why your alt has to stay in the vicinity that was worth a damn. Even if your alt does nothing but RPing, or count headshots he still affects how you and others spend AP. If you have so little impact on the area then there's no reason you won't be able to leave, otherwise you should choose a side. Have you ever tried try the Great North-West? It has . . . . . . well, maybe the SW.

You've made some good points there, its not a problem for him to move on, im not very well established in the area anyway. And it was just a strange coincidence that I started off in a similar area.

Inside Wakely. Empty...

You are inside the Wakley Building. The building has been smashed and ransacked. The doors to the street have been left wide open.

A portable generator has been set up here. It only has a little fuel left, enough to power a radio transmitter that's currently set to 26.70 MHz.

Somebody has spraypainted THIS IS AN ENTRY POINT. KEEP CADES VSB. onto a wall.

There is another zombie from your horde here. It's Doctadeth.

Working on the Sears Auto Repair, I doubt there will be anything in it, but it was at EHB and lights were on. Can't hurt to pop it right?

So looking at the wiki, all the important buildings look fairly spread in this town, I'm thinking of taking a wonder over to the Rayfield Building and seeing what's going on over there as it is the only listed Necrotech in town.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
You are inside the Rayfield Building. The NecroTech logo is set in the wall behind the front desk, and doors open onto powered-down computer rooms and laboratories. The lab equipment has been smashed and ransacked. The floor and walls are stained with splashes of dried blood. The doors to the street have been left wide open.

You are inside Sears Auto Repair. The doors to the street have been left wide open. Also here are bohlighter, aetzmolch, Mr Wil91, zbeta, GauntDog and Thecarcass.

A portable generator has been set up here. It is running, and powering a radio transmitter that's currently set to 26.70 MHz. The building has been decorated with two African paintings.

Somebody has spraypainted Sears™, selling everything, ever, since 1895. onto a wall.


Sears is a veritable buffet, boys.

Too bad I spent all my AP just getting in.
