Very nice gameplay :) Some mistakes that I think you made are: -you can't barricade in a room with zombies -line of sight doesn't go further than 1 room. So you can't shoot the sniper or any other weapon further than 1 room. -Zombies can't see you further than 1 room so they should follow noise.

Hi Yaman, thanks for your comment. About some of the mistakes I made -- It's been a while since I recorded this, so I'll go by memory... - Can't barricade in a room while zombies are there ➤ Damn, you're right! 😂 - Line of sight doesn't go further than 1 room ➤ as a general rule you're absolutely right, but if I use Lili's "+1 to max Range" ability, I think that's okay... - Zombies can't see you further than 1 room so they should follow noise ➤ Yeah... you're right! We've been playing it wrong for a while at my house! It makes the game more difficult for sure. I don't know what it is about the rulebook, there are just some parts in it that hurt my brain. Thanks for pointing out my goofs -- it shows that some of you are actually watching me play! 😉

@@TheMountainGamer I know its an older Video but about the skill from Lili: She can hit in one additional zone (range of weapon +1) but she can’t see further than 1 zone inside (line of sight stays to only 1). So the skill can only do something if she is outside.

Thanks for your comment. Not sure I'll shoot another Zombicide playthrough, though... But hey, you never know.

Nice game. You missed some rules to make it easier... but still 4 characters only is quite nice idea. Need to try out. Thanks for gameplay!

A little late to the party here but really dig this playthrough. A neat idea/way to make 2nd edition harder and doable solo. Going to try this for sure. One of my house rules is the pathing for Zs. I use dice to decide when there is a split required. Makes it more random and less driven by my ego ;) 1-3 they split, 4-6 they stay in a clump. 1-3 they go left, 4-6 they go right.

Nice, I like that idea! Keeps things fresh.

Fun fact: Zombicide barricade tokens do exist. They were in classic and they were double sided actually. It SIX actions to put up one barricade, but it would block zombies entirely unless they get an extra activation. Plopping down an objective token with just a couple actions sounds WAY easier in comparison.

Ahhh, pretty cool. Good to know!

For lower survivor count (less than 6) I usually go with 1 spawn point per 2 survivors, so for this scenario I would have only used 2 zombie spawn markers.

Another thought (for any player count) might be to roll a die for each spawned zombie. If the result is higher than the number of players, that single zombie does not spawn. Might be too random… Will test.

Solo player here so defo like the idea of only playing 4 characters. I might also also houserule that a big bad abomination should be able to tear down barricades for its action if its blocking him getting to adjacent survivors. I know its hard enough with just 4 survivors, but it does seem more realistic to allow them to do that...and yeah Im a glutton for punishment lol

Sounds like a good & thematic idea. But be aware -- even though you lile punishment -- that with only 4 heroes, some scenarios will rip you a new one! Enjoy!😂

If the game isn't stressful and you're not overrun with zombies, are you even playing Zombicide? :) The 4 survivor count seems like an interesting variant to keep you on your toes.

Entering a zone with zombies still ends your movement with Sprint. Slippery only effects you moving out of a zone.

@TheMountainGamer

Жыл бұрын

Yeah, you’re right… Thanks for pointing it out. I’ve played probably 15 times so far, and every time, I spot something I misunderstood in the rules. 🤦🏻‍♂️ * Here’s the official quote from the Zombicide wiki: SLIPPERY: The Survivor does not spend extra Actions when he performs a Move Action through a Zone containing Zombies. Entering a Zone containing Zombies ends the Survivor’s Move Action. * I believe the original rules were in French, which would account for the bad rulebook.

Curious as to what others think. I never use noise tokens, each survivor essentially acts as their own noise token so it's always fairly obvious what direction the zombies will move. I find the noise tokens to be unnecessarily fiddly.

@TheMountainGamer

Жыл бұрын

I totally agree with you. I’ve never come across a situation where noise tokens became a deciding factor in terms of zombie movement. My take is that you can 100% ignore the rule and just play - and still have fun without breaking the game.

Not sure if second edition rules are different on this, but Fatties always spawn with 2 walkers in the original version. It doesn't say that on the card, but it says that in the rulebook under fatties.

Have you tried using the optional rule when you go into a building, for the first time. Every dark area automatically spawns zombies one time.

@TheMountainGamer

2 жыл бұрын

That sounds like the rules as written, actually. As soon as you open the door to a building, every dark room connected to that door (and connected to each other) will spawn zombies. If you watch the play through you’ll see that this is the way I play the game; because that’s the way the rules are written.

You also cant open all the doors at the same time,you still need to use an action to go through them😁

You’re right that usually it takes an action to open a door, however this Mission has a special rule about doors: 5:10 Basically they can be opened without weapons (crowbar, etc) and Zombies can bust through them like they didn’t exist.

I should’ve started the game with every character’s pins on #3, and then move them down each time they received a wound. If I had done that, as you pointed out, Josh’s pin would indeed need to be at #2 (not #3). Good catch !
