I use gummy bears for zombies and whoever kills it gets to eat it.

For games where it matters, I was considering card/paper cut-outs of casualties in lieu of actual miniature casualties. The latter are not often available or practicable to collect and paint in quantity.

Keep track on paper? Unless, is it relevent to the game system to keep track of kills on board?

I use blood splatters printed on transparant plasticard.

It has no real game function actually, but I found out that players LOVE that trail of blood splatters a cross the table….

Loving the bloodsplatter idea!!

If you "kill" a zombie, shouldn't he/she/it be marked with a living human being? Inquiring minds want to know.

I totally think the blood splatters make the game table.

Blood splatters – quite literally, the way to go.

A very good idea.

Captain dEwell03 Sep 2011 5:44 a.m. PST

Very good.

Blood splatters FTW!

Sundance03 Sep 2011 7:02 a.m. PST

Great idea, Pijlie!

You could do different shapes and/or colours if you wanted to track each player's dead zed count.

Excelent idea Pijlie!.

Thank you thank you :o)

We currently just pull zombie casualties to recycle them in the game. I intend to use counters or something else in the future though. I like the ideas shown.

Angel Barracks04 Sep 2011 10:31 a.m. PST

Liking splatters too.

Grey Matter 1304 Sep 2011 6:05 p.m. PST

Awesome idea! Great, now I have another project I am now officially slacking on. Eventually, my table will be covered in cool looking blood splatters…

NOLA Chris06 Sep 2011 11:26 a.m. PST

Blood splaters!
Much easier than all the HO train gravestones I painted up and put on washers…
I'll still use them for WW2, but am
going with this idea for Z…
or maybe chalk body outlines on transparent plastic? :)

Chris

Captain dEwell06 Sep 2011 3:00 p.m. PST

Chalk body outlines on transparent plastic is another exceptional idea. However, I regard them more to do with a crime scene. Are Zombie deaths regarded as crime scenes or as just another one who bites the dust?
