New A&A chaos game C vs S

Please forgive me: I’ve made a slight alteration.

In order to preserve the special character of the ‘Zombie Corps’, I have given control of them to the most geographically distant ally.

I think it just looks better and works better with the spirit of the rules.

So for the Axis:

German & Italian Zombies appear as Japanese.
Japanese Zombies appear as either Germans or Italians (Japanese player’s choice, as they are equidistant).

For the Allies:

Russian Zombies appear as ANZAC.
USA Zombies appear as ANZAC.
Chinese Zombies appear as French.
UK Zombies appear as Chinese.
ANZAC Zombies appear as French.
French Zombies appear as Chinese.

It’s not perfect, but I think it’ll be more fun. Be sure to let me know what you think of playing this way as we go along.

Thanks again for your patience in learning and adapting to the (changing) rules: I know it’s not easy being a playtester!

Sincerely,

Chris

Personally, I’d put those new Zombie Corps to work guarding the Atlantic Wall, or suppressing partisan activities behind the Eastern Front…  :wink:

@Grendal:

In other words only americans can generate chinese zombies and they stay in green territories as defenders. Or else they will gain a strategic advantage that they normally don’t have in the game. That is, ‘attacking outside of the PRC.’

I’m comfortable with giving the poor Chinese a little boost.

For the Allies, Zombie Corps should only appear as Allied minors, i.e., ANZAC, France, China.

This is because, unlike the Axis, the Allies actually do a fair bit of cross-theatre fighting, and it would be unbalancing to give the Allies majors units they can easily use, while denying the same to the Axis.

So, please, for the moment let’s stick with the original proposal:

Russian Zombies appear as ANZAC.
USA Zombies appear as ANZAC.
Chinese Zombies appear as French.
UK Zombies appear as Chinese.
ANZAC Zombies appear as French.
French Zombies appear as Chinese.

If it turns out that China is sh!tting all over the Japanese because of this, we may need to reconsider.

But my guess is that it’ll be fine.

You’re up Carl! Please use my most recent gamesave on the previous page…

Hi Carl, before every move you should post a chaos roll to the forum.

President Roosevelt has infused his polio-crippled legs with Zombie tissue and become a Super-Necromancer.

The US Marines are now being trained down to the sergeant class in the dark arts, increasing the odds of producing Zombie Corps post-combat.

Also! The Americans have developed a new Spore-Bomb to be delivered by bombers, which can create up to 3 Zombie Corps when dropped on enemy territories.

How does this affect the game?

1. The USA produce Zombies at the end of their turn on rolls of ‘5’ OR ‘6’ (instead of just ‘6’).

2. When delivering Spore-Bombs, each USA bomber must attack alone, against territories that are not being attacked by friendly ground units. Bombers must survive anti-aircraft fire to deliver Spore-Bombs.

3. Roll <:>dice 3d6<:> in the forum here for every USA bomber dropping a Spore-Bomb.

4. On any result of 1, 2, 3, or 4, edit that many enemy ground units off the map, and replace them with Zombie Corps (ANZAC infantry).

5. Then, battle continues in that territory as normal (i.e., bomber can retreat if it survives the first round).

The White House has been painted and rebranded as ‘The Dark Crypt’. Chances for Roosevelt’s re-election look very strong indeed among his new zombie majority… Factories in Detroit are no doubt churning out new waves of bombers even as we speak…
