3 different Zombie unit types
-
OK, so zombie producer it is then :-D
-
The sculpts are cool.
Keep in mind when designing your house ideas that zombies already 1) appear magically and take away income by making your territories “zombie controlled” 2) have no allegiance or association with any power, except that they are wandering around in that territory, and that there are several ways on the cards and in the techs to move them all over the place to make them more annoying to your opponents than you 3) use special dice with blank sides and attacker/defender symbols so without re-creating those odds with a standard die, modding this would be difficult
there is also a zombie collapse mechanic that if they take over too much of the world, everyone loses–this provides an incentive to the player who appears to be ahead to turn and suppress the zombies in order to avoid losing not to the enemy, but to a general defeat.

I still got no answer on why there are 3 different zombie sculpts. Do they have different combat value, like the infantry zombie A1/D2 and the female zombie move 2 ?
-
Sorry Narvik I thought I addressed your question. No, they are just for fun. Unless YOU make them different.
-
Yes, I see it now, you say they made 3 different zombie sculpts just because they are cool. And yet, they cant afford to make nation specific sculpts on units that actually is cool and have a rational use in the game, like Tanks and ships.
FYI, I,m gonna use the female zombie to model the Bengal Famine in 1943, wich I figure will be around Turn 4. The infantry zombie can represent neutral Sweden forces, and the worker zombie can be Sovjet Partisans, pop up everywhere for free and make the factories mobilize half of the value.

The Zombie sculpts LOOK like this is a typical WOTC… meaning these sculpts look like they belong to another game that was never made and WOTC repurposed them for AAZ. Even the three sculpts dont look to be in the same scale or in AA scale. Which incidentally, could explain the 3 sculpts idea… They just had 3 different types and tried to make them fit. If they wanted to do this right, they would be making chainsaw tanks as a new sculpt.
-
Right, what happened to the Chainsaw Tank sculpt ? Would even be easier to make than a figurine. About the scale, A zombie obviously has degenerated into a brain eating walking skeleton, and it would be derogatory to make it the same size as a living infantry. So basically the different scale makes sense.
Taken from the “Independent Egypt” thread, I now have a new idea for a house rule. Not the proper forum, I know, but as long as the game is not yet released, we take it here. The female women zombie sculpt can be used as an Egyptian Mummy unit. Every time Cairo is captured, the noise will awaken a Mummy unit, for free. The Mummy unit move 1 space every UK Turn, headed for any random territory. Each Mummy unit kill one matching random unit from any random nation, use the zombie dice. But now, its called the Mummy dice

The next game will be Axis and Allies & Mummys

I see a D&D themed house set with ghasts, spectres, and mummies of various powers.

Sometimes I feel like some members of this forum were traumatized by zombies as small children.

No It was King Tutankhamun. The mummys came first.

Straighten up soldier, you are in the Z coy now, we eat mummies at breakfast. We are mummy slayers. No mummy army could ever stand against our chainsaw Tanks

They just different sculpts for the same unit. All zombies work the same.

There probably will be many house rules…
-
Yes. There will be.
A Pandemic-style of spreading Zombies was play tested and eliminated because it was overwhelming. But that could be a house rule.
