Re: A Realistic Look at the Future of Heroscape

If this game was still under the Hasbro tag I'd be a...

This is very sad. I had the chance to game with him at the Lake Geneva gaming convention a while back, really nice guy and the father of role-playing.

Yes, I consider "infected" to be zombies. Many zombie purists, however, do not and that's why I said "if you consider".

My zombies are sort of a cross between "infected" and Romero zombies. They...

Yeah, they are a bit quicker than Romero zombies but not as fast as say 28 days zombies (if you consider them zombies).
