Brains: The Hunger

by

Pictors Studio offers Brains: The Hunger, a simple set of rules to:

simulate skirmish combat between a group of college students (or high school football players, or whatever) who are partying in a zombie infested field (or woods, or cemetery) and the zombies that are infesting them.

RIght off the bat, I have to say that these rules are not really historical. Everyone knows that the infamous Zombie infestation of 1978 started in a Pittsburgh Mall, not in some field with teenagers. Geesh. What are they thinking? Haven’t they done their research. Next thing you know, they’ll be trying to sell us zombie figures without the wide lapel shirts.

Now the Fire and Fury people are at work on a version for America’s other “horse and musket” wars: The Revolution, War of 1812, and Mexican War. You can find the playtest versions of Fire and Fury: Americas Wars here.
