I suppose, but it allows me to do two things:

2) See what people are holding back. (Like why did Rumba not equip that gun I stole from him?)

And then there is a..

quote:

Crossroads Card: Outsiders

"I need everybody at the gate right now! There's a flatbed that just pulled up, loaded with refugees."

Every player with 1 or more survivors at the colony must vote.

Option 1

"We don't have much, but if your people are willing to pull their own weight we can give you a home. For the winter at least. After that you're on your own". Each player draws 1 survivor from the survivor deck and adds it to their following. Each player also adds 1 helpless survivor to the colony.

Option 2

"I'm sorry we just can't take on any more. You're going to have to keep moving". Their faces suggest they've heard those words too many times before. They look downward in acceptance and soon the truck is driving away. Three days later you find the truck collapsed on the side of the road. The people are gone, but blood is caked on the road. Nothing happens.

Action queue: All players to vote Option 1 or Option 2. You can discuss in thread, but please send me your final votes via PM

Well unless you have a crap ton of food along with the medicine we need the choice is obvious we'll lose 2 morale if we starve this turn, on top of the fitness trainer frezzing to death it'll practically be game over.

mongol

Regardless of the results, I'm definitely going to do this:

Search the school, take the Food 2 card found and add it to the food supply.
Add my Food 1 card to the food supply.
Add one card to the crisis.
Kill 2 Zombies at the School with Sophie's Baseball Bat.
Move Gray Beard to the Hospital
Kill 1 Zombie with Gray Beard's Colt


If we choose Option 1, I can also move my new survivor to the School to help with Food. If Fat Sam moves his new survivor out, we'd have exactly enough food, and then we'd just need 3 more medicine. FS has two survivors already at the Grocery Store, and medicine is the second most common item there, and his two characters could get four items over just two searches. It's not a lock by any means, but it is doable.

We'll need 5 more food... Plus the extra zombies.

I'd rather not choose option 1. Also can I know which of my cards were taken. Also mongol stealing means that I have to spend more time on searches for fulfilling my own victory condition. On the other hand, even if you are a good guy it's a good option, because it improves the chances for you to fulfill your own objectives, unless I decide to go for the nuclear option, which is entirely possible.

I made a mistake in the last update which has been corrected now. There should have been 4 food then, and now with Mongol's cards there is 7 food at the colony.

I'll wait for a majority vote before posting the next update.

Am i not supposed to use my character's powers? Every card I've stolen I've used to help the group. I stole a gun to kill Zombies that Rumba hadn't equipped. I stole food from Tekopo that he didn't contribute to the food supply.

That's fair, but my point still stands that I have been using Gray Beard's ability to help the group. I have one card in my hand, so I'm certainly not hoarding cards. As far as voting on adding more people, I think it will do more good than harm, considering we have 4 rounds to complete the objective. If you disagree, I have no problem with us voting against it.

Tekopo

The problem is that it just adds helpless survivors and the more zombies we have coming our way, the harder our objective is going to be.

Move Sparky to the Grocery Store and attack a zombie with a 2.

EDIT: Actually, attack up to 2 zombies, stopping only if Sparky is in danger of dying with a bad roll. Then use my other "2" die to build 2 barricades at the grocery store (due to the hammer).

Fat Samurai plays a card:

Food 3 Grocery Store Food Waste Pile: Add 3 food tokens to the food supply

3 food added to the supply

Sparky moves to the grocery store

Sparky goes on a zombie killing rampage. Fur and flesh is everywhere. Sparky kills 2 zombies, and takes one frostbite (downgraded from a bite)

John builds two barricades at the grocery store.

You still have one dice remaining (3 - you used one to search, two to fight, and one to barricade out of five dice)

I know. The second search is going to be a dive for medicine (which is the second most common item in the Grocery Store). By barricading the two open spots I have enough leeway to attract 1 extra zombie via noise, so I think we have a good shoot at surviving this.

Yes you should, I was doing it from memory rather than actually checking the card. Oh also, this should have happened when Sparky moved:

quote:

Crossroads Card: Fuel Tanker

The fuel tanker sits just off the road, and it appears in excellent condition. You exit your car, and checking the perimeter you approach the cab, its driver side door hanging open. You tear the seatbelt apart (with your teeth because you are a dog), and bludgeon the head of the zombie that falls out. The trucker's bloody hat says Beaver Inspector, and you marvel at how stupid and frivolous your your master's species used to be. Climbing into the cab, you give the keys a twist and the loud diesel engine roars to life like some ancient monster reborn into the world. You cringe. Noise like that is going to draw every dead thing for a mile.

Option 1

You drive the tanker back to the colony, drawing every zombie in the area back with you. Place 6 zombies at the colony and add up to 4 fuel cards that have been removed from the game to your hand.

Option 2

You sigh regretfully and turn the motor back off. It's just too loud to risk driving into the colony. Nothing happens

Fat Samurai choose Option 1 or 2

John then searches the grocery store, mimicking Andrew's every move. Cards sent - keep?

Fat Samurai
Feb 16, 2011

Sparky is awesome and the bestest dog ever! :3


How many fuel card have we used? I think we can handle the zombies (how many zombies are going to appear at the colony at the end of the turn, Kerro? I can't check the manual right now), and the next crisis is going to need fuel. 4 extra cards could mean the difference between +1 morale and barely passing.

Make some noise!

Kerro
Nov 3, 2002

Did you marry a man who married the sea? He looks right through you to the distant grey - calling, calling..
Currently 5 zombies would appear at the colony, although only 2 will be placed (3 will destroy barricades instead). Attracting 6 more would result in 4 more being placed and 2 more barricades being destroyed (I think, I'm bad at visualising this stuff in my head. Certainly no-one will get eaten).

Noise made, card sent. More noise?
