Default Zombie Survival RP -- LF input (Updated) 6-30-2010

This is my summer pet project in attempt to be ready for me and some college buddies in fall semester.

My Goal is to set up zombie rp with as a hybrid from information from Zombie Survival Guide by mat Brooks + adding some special style zombies that resemble the infected from 28 days and 28 weeks later. As well as possibly tossing in a super zombie like one you might find in Resident Evil series as well as other influnces.



Zombie Information
Quote:
Tier 1: Most Common Zombie making 85% of population Slow horde like very unintelligent. Human Sense of Sight,Hearing and strength cannon fodder unless utilized by a T2 or higher zombie.

Tier 2: 14% of populationZombie Virus Mutation Increased all human sense nearing outer realm of super human. Ability to gather and lead Tier 1 zombies in slightly more complex attacks allowing zombies to attack as a group but as they are limited by their own brain function T1's can only Follow simple one word commands. Tier 2 zombies can only use startegy knowledge that their victims held.
IE: if a child was infected with T2 Strain it would be useless likely only gathering large groups that attack singular wave.
T2 Ability attack ability "Wreckless Charge": The Zombie blitz gaining near superhuman speed as it slams into a Object or Player causing Blunt damage or breaking through most week solid objects such as most house/glass doors.

Tier 3: Less than 1% Advanced Zombie Known as "Berserker" This much larger Zombie more closely relates to Tank from L4D series while incredibly rare... a 1 in 1million genetic mutation, while retaining the charge ability(seen in t2 only with increased damage) should be able to burst through thin concrete wall's and almost any wooden surface.
I figured for Randomizing these guys, I can Roll 2 D6's and Snakes eyes are only way to get Tier 3, All Other Doubles to Spawn Tier 2 and everything else will be recognized for spawning a leaderless horde.


I figure where my Hero*cough* Victims... will reside will be decided later. I want to keep this fairly random which will keep my players guessing. This is my First GMing Experience..
