Zombie Survival RP -- LF input

[Bigleon]

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

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..
