Daniel can also double-kill at his current location on a 4+ (if I'm reading the skill right), but he does roll for exposure once. If he'd be better off somewhere other than the colony next turn, just let me know.

David searches the school

David builds a second barricade
(David really likes school it seems, the breeding ground of a lifelong love of spreadsheets that took him where he is today...well not today...where he was before the zombies took over and rendered his VBA knowledge redundant)


Whether I search again depends on what I find. I think we can risk a noise, but then again I don't think we need to risk too many zombies when we have such good searchers here already.

Ashley was told she could join our Colony on the strict instruction that she must never enter the Colony, she must go somewhere else and build walls every turn to make up for the additional zombies her existence had created. In return, she must search that place every time she was able to, and give any food she found to the Colony.

What a deal.

quote:

The raiders are gone. We gave them the last of our food. Well, not quite the last, but we didn't have enough left for everyone to eat so the group decision was that no-one would eat. I guess it's fair, but is it wise? Some of us are going to have to go out there again tomorrow and try and find more food for the colony. Shouldn't the strongest among us get to eat, so that we can help the rest? I don't know how much longer I can take this. I'm feeling weaker by the day, and I can feel a sickness taking hold of me.

The dead were quieter this morning, the air feels tense and still. Inside, we're beginning to look more like them. They gaze in, we gaze out. The same blank stares, hung shoulders, slack faces.

The first hailstones fell just after lunch, rising quickly from a patter to a deafening roar as the skies tore open above us. It's tearing through what remains of our defences - apparently the weather can't stand the waiting any longer. I'm going out to see what I can do. God help me.

quote:

Crossroads Card: Outbreak

At first Jerry just had a light fever, but the next day his neck was swollen and had a strange purple tint to it. Now three days have passed and you've never seen anything like it. The yellow buboes that have formed under Jerry's jaw are leaking pus, and the odor that surrounds him is harsh and bitter. This can't end well.

Option 1

Kick Jerry out! Remove a helpless survivor token from the colony. Lose 1 morale.

Option 2

The sickness spreads through the colony. Each survivor at the colony receives 1 wound. If Olivia Brown or Janet Taylor are not in play, roll a die for each helpless survivor at the colony. On a result of 1, kill that helpless survivor

All players must vote Option 1 or Option 2

We have Olivia Brown, and she can heal people at the colony for free on GTR's turn. I guess this is a no-brainer. If we could kill off two helpless survivors for one morale, it might be a different story.

Yeah, I can heal people for free once per turn. I hope you don't find it selfish I'm going to heal the Doctor first though! I'll get my turns back to back, and will target another with my second heal.

So yeah, no brainer here.

If we kick Jerry out and move someone else out, that reduces the amount of food we need.

However, a handful of wounds is a thing we can deal with.

I'm willing to go with either option.

If it was more than 1 for 1 I'd agree with you, but I think we need to take the option that costs us nothing other than a few lines of bold text in one of my posts.

Option #1:
Kill one helpless survivor, we drop one morale

Option #2:
Four people take wounds.

Option 2 seems better.

The doctor in time will only be able to heal 3/4, if she's in the same space as them. And we may need a Colony evacuation anyway.

Also, I have slept on it and I think we may need to overstack the Crisis deck to ensure it passes. I admit I may have made an error myself, as I put a Junk into the crisis, but I hold a toolkit that can build two barricades for no actions and thought that would be useful in the future. Now I'm not sure it would be worth as much as ensuring this crisis is passed, or maybe even over supplied to get the bonus. Depends on how many cards people are going to contribute. Can we have a count up?
