Here are some pics of my Cold Wars game. Attack of the Corporate Zombies. I've been playing this game off and on over the last 9 years and when I do, the turn out is great.

The figures are from "The Cubes" line from Accoutrements. They are no longer available, but you can still find them here and there.

The players had to do their daily tasks, such as make Coffee, fax their TPS reports, make some copies etc. All while avoiding the zombies and their boss. We had 10 players and myself running the zombies and the Boss.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Pretty funny. In real life, when the corporate zombies win, they downsize the company and let a bunch of people go.

Cool thank you for posting

Vtsaogames, The actual name of the game is Attack of the Corporate zombies: Hostile Takeover. The reason I decided to run it again is because the company I work for recently got bought out and some people are losing their jobs. So it's nice to get revenge.

Looks like a fun game.
And the scenery adds a lot too.

Thanks for sharing.

I thought about doing this. Great to see someone did it!

The figures look to be perfect for 3D printing.

Moe the Great31 Mar 2016 3:48 a.m. PST

That's a good idea. I always need more.

My kids played in this game at a convention and LOVED it. You even gave them a cube person to take home, which years later they still have. Great game -- and well ahead of the current zombie mania. Thanks for running it and creating nice memories for my kids.

My son and his friend played in this game. They had a blast. Thanks for putting it on. Whenever they see this game in the PEL its a must sign up.

Moe the Great01 Apr 2016 12:31 p.m. PST

You're both very welcome. Kids always enjoy this game and I always enjoy running it.

Just don't tell anyone that "IT'S NOT A HISTORICAL GAME!", as one older gentleman pointed out as he walked by the table at Cold Wars. They way he said it made me think he was letting everyone at the table know that fact. In case the plastic figures and glow in the dark zombies wasn't a big enough clue.

I wonder if walked up to all of the non-historical games and mentioned that fact or just mine.

captrsharpe01 Apr 2016 1:20 p.m. PST

The funny part about that is, about 10 years ago my first son and his friend played in this game. At that time they had no interest in historical games. Well my first son doesn't really game anymore, but his friend became a history major in college and likes to play historical games now. Its funny how that works.

It _wasn't_ a historical game???
I was deceived!
(Psssst…Sean--it was a blast!)

It sure looks like some of the takeovers I've seen. Just say it's a recreation of New York Life taking over Irving Trust. My best man managed to keep his job then. It's historical and more than 10 years old so you can't get dawghoused.

Canuckinator02 Apr 2016 1:04 p.m. PST

That looks like a blast Moe! I presume you use homebrew rules?

vtsaogames02 Apr 2016 5:45 p.m. PST

Hmm. That was Bank of New York took over Irving Trust. Sorry.

Moe the Great03 Apr 2016 5:51 a.m. PST

@Canuckinator. Yes I use some rules I've been tweaking for ten years now. "Cube Wars 2.0". It's 2 pages for the basic rules and a few others that change for the game/scenario. I came mail you a copy if you want. ( or anybody else)
