Well my first game in the "ZOmbies through History" was a success at Historicon. It was a Zombie game set in Medeval times with lots of Vilalgers, Zombies and farm animals
(Don't ask) And did I mention a Trojan Rabbit? I used the ATZ rules with some varients and it really seemed to go well. What I need now are some ideas for my next "Zombies through history" game. Keep in mind I would need to be able to find the figures for it and if it will need to be terrain heavy I would need the proper terrain. Any Ideas? |

Past COnvention games I have run and have parts for: Westside Zombies: (lots of City Buildings) District "Z": (with 72 28MM Conexes, makes a nice shipyard) Zombies in the Sand: (MBA Middle Eastern city) Attack of the Office Zombies: (35 "The Cubes" Cubilce Sets) |

How about some 16th century zombiness? Or maybe Zombies of Antiquity? |

Zombies, cavemen and dinosaurs! |

How would one set Zombies of Antiquity apart? 10,000 BZ Before Zombies. The True reason fot the Dinosaur extinction
:) I was thinking Something set in europe during the Roman expansion. Maybe the Picts or Gauls where really Zombies. OR maybe teh Black Plague was really a Zombie Plague.. |

Good point, the black plague would be a perfect backdrop for a zombie nightmare
you could also easily fit in a rat related element as well; ratmen or giant rats or intelligent rats or a piper leading the rats

Zombie Apocalypse Now, Cambodian jungle fight and compound attack scenario to assassinate the necromancer Col. Kurtz. Terrain is easy and cheap. Couple of bags of cake decoration palm trees, and a bamboo skewer jungle camp. |

I was thinking Something set in europe during the Roman expansion. Maybe the Picts or Gauls where really Zombies. How about a Teutoburgen Wald -style battle, where a Roman unit pushing into a forested area is surprised by a horde of Germanic zombies, and they will need to beat a retreat back to the Rhine? Zombie Apocalypse Now, Cambodian jungle fight and compound attack scenario to assassinate the necromancer Col. Kurtz. This sounds awesome! |

Wasn't the Roanoke colony wiped out by zombies? |

Rather than Custer's Last Stand, might I suggest Custer's Next Stand, after the Last Stand? |

300 Zombies, boy were those Persians suprised
Zulu Zombies! Boy, was Bromhead and Chard suprised
Pompey's Zombies! Boy was Julius

) |

Max Brooks (world War Z) has a graphic novel called Zombies Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks which chronicles zombie attacks through Ancient Rome, against Caribbean traders/ pirates, French foreign Legion and other historical settings too .. link |

I have started work on "Apocalypse Zombie". A trip up the River in a PTR in search of Col Kurtz and his Montagnard tribesmen. Who knew the are all actually reanimated dead, looking to get their revenge
Some nice river scenery, a Vietnamese temple ruins
and loads of zombies. I am liking this already.. (Also looking to see is anyone makes 15mm US Cav?) |

Do zombies hibernate? We know vampires don't: link but zombies? An intriguing (and seemingly controversial) topic: TMP link |
