I have searched TMP for a while and, although I have found a few batreps, I have not managed to find any proper reviews of No More Room in Hell. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

As someone who has played ATZ, I am particularly interested in any comparisons of the two rule sets. They seem like the end effect is quite similar from reading the batreps, but it might just be how people write them up.

I'm also interested in how they fit everything in to a mere 80 pages, as it sounds like it covers all the key things for an ongoing campaign and maintaining a group of survivors.

Thanks in advance.

No More Room In Hell is a cinematic-to-the-max humans vs. zombies game. While I haven't played it yet, it reads well, and seems eminently playable. The game even includes something resembling a campaign or scenario generator. If you have a chance, pick it up and look through it--I think you'll be buying it.

I've played both, like both, but prefer NO MORE ROOM IN HELL. Why?

1) NMRIH has a detailed point system to build your forces.

2) Each character has four stats, with plenty of additional skills and gear to buy.

3) All the campaign rules and tables are included.

Your mileage may vary.

Thanks for your response. As it happens I decided I wouldn't get much info from this thread and bought it today! Haha.

Maybe I'll do a review/comparison myself seeing as there doesn't seem to be one out there.

Good to know it seems okay to you

Have never played ATZ but do play no more room in hell. It is a very customized rule set that allows your characters to do just about anything given the different attributes you have for your characters. Your guys slowly level up with experience so it appeals to the role players as well.

I play the rules, but didn't post a detailed review of the game on my blog :-(

If you want to discuss the game with other zombie wargamers, then you could visit this new forum dedicated (deadicated?) to zombie wargaming: link
