OK.

Well.

In that case everybody needs to go and watch Zombieland right now.  One of the best movies ever made (along with Charlie Wilson's War) and the best zombie movie of all time.

Hi

I love zombie movies and would love to game the genre.

If I may suggest a rule set that I have played with zombies in 15mm and had a great time.

They are an supplement of the ambush alley rules (can`t remember the name but there`s a z in the title somewhere).

They would need a little modifing as they are a skirmish set but instead of one figure is one man you could easy base several 10mm figures on the same base to represent a fire team/section.

Never seen Zombieland heard mixed reviews but the remake of dawn of the dead takes some beating.

It's "Ambush Z" Jim - and top-notch it is too  8)

Bah! You're obviously forgetting Shaun of the Dead.  :D
(I do love that movie - but then I'm not a huge zombie movie fan in general so that might be part of it)

I reckon some zombie types inspired by the "Left 4 dead" computer game series, some specialised zombies

I'm only having a play, at the moment...and these are anything but remotely complete....Note the lack of proper arms for starters ;)
But is this the type of thing you mean ?....Or am I missing the point ?
The chap in the middle is supposed to be dragging himself forward with just one arm.
Just so's you know....these are made on 'historical' size dollies NOT fantasy size....So they're shorter than fantasy...But around the same size as Sci-Fi.

AWWW Techno, this is going to be an expensive year if these get done in 2012  :D  I see tons of possibilities with those figures. Instead of a prone dragging itself maybe it is raised up from the waist pulling itself forward with one hand and reaching for you with the other  ;)

Might be a bit of a 'bogger' to cast in 10mm..(Maybe side to side rather than as a flat 'top to bottom' :-\)....Might try that with a separate figure though....be a nice pose ! :-bd

I did wonder if someone was going to suggest UNIT as an alternative use for the British Falkland's troops. ;)
