Map of AAZ

@Krieghund ,

Thanks for reply. Of course I know this topic. But I thought it might be fruitful to compile all these issues that were brought up in that thread and other threads (and places like BoardGameGeek) and divide them into several subjects: combat / production / Z-specific rules / …

And then hopefully there will be an official AAZ FAQ soon.

Slightly off-topic but I thought about the possibility of introducing these Zs to the not-official-but-close-enough-to-GameMaster-Series boardgame of Buck Rogers: Battle for the 25th Century…

Whether attacking or defending, the benefit from Z-4 Explosives applies only to the units of the power(s) with that technology. It does not apply to the units of an ally.

@Krieghund said in AAZ Rule Question: Desperate Meassures Card: DECOY TEAM:

Well, it’s half of the zombies in the territory, but essentially yes.

Thanks. This was just a typo of mine. I corrected this in my original posting:

@taamvan:

The chainsaw tank is just for your imagination, and for future HBG like profiteers who will need to actually create these models.

A multi-part and detailed Scandinavian war to replace 3 entire countries being represented by one square is a reality.

I know you are just joking, but I think you should be a better man than bringing our differencies from the Polar Express thread into the Zombie zone. I would never go that low on you, because I got self respect. In fact, I am as we speak in the process of designing a Scandinavian game based on A&A BotB, only with terrain. Different units will have specific movement range, and also different terrain will effect movement. Like motorized units have unlimited spaces of movement if they travel by roads, but cant move into mountain terrain. Norwegian ski-troops move 3 spaces when in snow, German mountain troops move 2 spaces in snow, they used snowshoes and not skis, but they can climb and cross mountain ranges. Regular British, French, Polish and Swedish infantry only move 1. Artillery work by shelling adjacent spaces, not charging like they were some kind of infantry. Tanks absorb two hits, etc etc, lots of new rules but I like to keep it KISS. Aircrafts will have its own specific combat phase, with dog-fights and carpet bombing, and not like some kind of advanced infantry like they are in the current A&A games. Enough. Buy my game when its ready. Then we can talk. Today zombies are the topic. Respect that !!! Man.

Gees another game I got to buy ? Well I guess so. Anything as close to historic.  8-)

@Narvik:

What happened to the Chainsaw Tanks ?

It would have been a cool piece, better than 3 different zombie sculpts

The Chainsaw tanks are in the game - it’s just that Chainsaw tanks are a technology that you research. There is no Chainsaw tank sculpt and I suspect there never was going to be a piece of plastic called the “Chainsaw Tank” - from Hasbro/WotC/AH. Mark my words, though - there will be purchasable Chainsaw tanks from Shapeways from at least one seller there before the end of 2018. By 4th of July, 2019, at the latest.

Time will tell.

I’m beginning to think Nazis and Zombies go together like Peanut Butter and Jelly.

1941 was at target on sale for $20 so I’m def. thinking yes it will be sold there,

but they end up liquidating many of these types of games (pandemic, sonar, xwing TTWG ($12 not $40!! bought 9 copies) etc.)

(which is to say if you can wait you can probably get this for $30 unless it flies off the shelf Target is pretty aggressive about liquidating games and rotating the selection)
