The luck and randomness are everywhere. While that may offer different experiences for different groups, it does make it somewhat frustrating during the game.
I would think it would get frustrating having to lose every game while you try to pass the other guys continuously behind them from a mistake or two early game. I looked at this game from all the hype but held off. Its good I did, I don't think it would be a good fit for me or the guys I play games with every so often. Its a little hard for us to do campaign style for the most part.


On another note: I just thought up a great solution for frostgrave figures that I already have a bunch of but am getting a ton more of the like. Any of you guys that have the Zombicide Black Plague Board Game and/or the expansions. All of those survivors in the box all have classes somewhat and are sculpted the same. A handful of them have crossbows, bows, swords, daggers, some are wizard type figures. There is a neat looking necromancer in the box. There are a bunch of wolves and even more cool hero figures in the wulfsburg box and hero box 1. On top of that, I'm getting massive darkness through kickstarter. That has a ton of cool themed hero characters including thieves, rogues, wizards, a barbarian, a ranger, etc. Not to mention all the different monsters including demons, and a bunch of others. Exciting stuff. Just thought I'd share my thoughts on the subject.
