Now lets go back to the poll for a little. In my mind (and only there) I have settled on a Zombie game. Let me start by saying I am not totally happy with any of the Zombie rules I have found so far. They all have something to offer, but they also all lack one or more elements I would like. As such I think I might have a go at writing my own. I don't want to start adding house rules to an existing system, I feel a completely fresh start is in order. If you don't hear any more about this assume I have given up, and common sense has taken over.
Meanwhile back at the Zombie terrain ideas, here are a few I have thought of (in no logical order):
- High School
- Petrol Station.
- Hospital.
- Laboratory / Research Facility.
- Shopping Mall
- Underground / tube station.
- Warehouse/Factory
- Docks/Port.
- Fair Ground / Ammusement park.
- Peir.
- Airport.
- Railway Station / Rail Yard.
- Sewer.
- Appartment Block.
- Church and graveyard.
- Powerstation.
- Army Baracks
- Motorway Service Station / Truck stop.
- Typical Urban Street / City block.
- Suburban area.
- Zoo.
I hope there is something there for you to mull over. I already feel Happier with this post than the previous one. I'll post again Tomorrow, so take care til than and happy Blogging. All the Best Clint
I like your list, Clint. I can tick four of them off from my own campaign - petrol station, warehouse, power station and suburban area. I'd add one more location (for obvious reasons, cough, cough!) and that's a police station.
ReplyDeleteI was bound to miss something obvious out! Doh! Police Station, Of course. Thanks for pointing it out.
DeleteI think there's another you might consider, Sir. How about a SuperMax Prison or a criminally insane asylum?
ReplyDeleteExcellent ideas. I bet there's even more I have missed out! (City not Rural, I have left off all Rural deas, sor now.)
DeleteHey Clint, I've been considering getting a box and painting 'Somewhere Safe' on the side just so I can find things again ...
ReplyDeleteOn the Zombie rules front, I have the same feeling as you - none of the rules I've tried/read quite satisfy, so am getting No More Room In Hell to read those as well. I'll let you know if I think they are any better than ATZ or 7ombieTV.
Good luck with your own rules!
If I get a box with somewhere safe written on it... where will I put it? I'm bound to loose it as well.
DeleteYeah please let me know about NMRIH.
Starting the rules will be easy.... finishing them is a different story all together!
Good Selection to be fair I think apart from the prison Charles mentioned that's pretty much covered
ReplyDeleteBound to be something I have missed. But more important to fix on one and move forward. I'll see what happens in a couple of weeks when I talk with Carl (crooked dice). He'll no doubt sidetrack me on to something else entirly.
DeleteThat's some list you have there!!!!!
ReplyDeleteStart with a long list and shorten it. I have no intention of buiding them all. I'll talk about what I'm looking for later.
DeleteWhat about adding a Motel, a trailer park, a shanty down, a municipal park or a sports arena/area ?
ReplyDeleteAs for rules, start a discussion on the BOTLL please with your ideas.
Caravan park / camping site was on the list I just forgot to add it. WE don't have trailer parks as such in the UK. I had trouble finding caravans to the right scale, until this afternoon. "Wilkensons" do them now (£5each... but only 1 style/colour).
DeleteAll good ideas more for me to think about..
I am thinking of a show game at conventions at the moment. As opposed to a campaign setting.
