Sneak Peek at New Ambush Alley Rules Expansion

Well, I can't speak for all zombiphiles, of course, but I can say why Ambush Z has been on our development list from day one:

I love last stand games, forlorn hope games, any game where one side is so hopelessly outnumbered that the best they can hope for is to go out with a bang – to leave a memorable stain on the pages of history, so to speak. Now, there are plenty of periods and theaters that offer abundant opportunities for those kind of games – but zombies add the extra spice of an opponent that is implacable, merciless, and utterly fearless.

So, the idea of playing my highly trained SpecOps fireteam as they move stealthily between mobs of milling zombies, knowing that eventually they'll become the center of a maelstrom of grim and unforgiving dead gives me a pleasurable chill.

Hi, all!

I thought I'd share a sneaky little peek at the cover of a new Ambush Alley rules expansion/scenario pack to be released later in September - with plenty of time to plan for spooky Halloween game nights!

New Ambush Alley rule expansion

Ambush Z will contain all the rules needed to pit your Ambush Alley regulars or armed civilian survivors against hordes of the shambling (or not so shambling) dead!

Included will be descriptions of four types of zombies, from the brittle Odies to the cunning and semi-sentient Dexters, along with special rules for operating in zombie infested environments.

While the expansion will include a back-story, the rules have been left generic enough to allow players to easily adapt them to the recreation of their favorite zombie movies, books, or settings!

More news later as the release date draws closer - in the meantime, stock up on food, water, and shotgun shells! Zombies are inbound!
