Description Edit | History

States of SiegeTM #9

From designer Hermann Luttmann and lavishly illustrated by Heather Wagenbach arises Dawn of the Zeds , a States of Siege™ solitaire game of horror and survival. The world has gone crazy – a deadly virus has turned ordinary people into vicious, zombie-like killers. The undead, nicknamed "Zeds," are now converging on your corner of the world. You have been left to your own devices to stop them while the National Guard organizes a relief column and fights its way to you – but that could take days, or even weeks, before they arrive.

At the town of Farmingdale and its surrounding villages, you must coordinate its defenses. Regular citizens may emerge as heroes as you work to halt the Zeds' advances by (re)-killing them, discovering and implementing a cure to this vile scourge, and preserving the area and its inhabitants as much as possible.

In a game that requires the utmost test of skill and nerve, will you survive long enough? Will you be able to fight hordes of Zeds while protecting the townspeople? Unearth Dawn of the Zeds, a game that will keep you on your toes!

13 Dawn of the Zeds - New Heroes
27+9=36 new heroes for DotZ. Even more heroes....too many now, I think. Thanks to Hohenstadt for the suggestion of Circus Heroes. There is also a card that you should be able to use to customize your alter-ego. As long as you don't mind being dismembered and eaten by the Zeds :-) Enjoy.
