Such a great board. If the survivors make it through the first few turns its Zombie hunting season. It is possible for 2 extremely well organized and slightly lucky survivors to win. I've only seen the barn opened in one game, but in that one it almost turned the tables on the two survivors before they won a second desperate fight.
Survivors must communicate before their turn at least in the first few turns!
Very fun board. Playing the 'good guys' requires lots of communication/teamwork. Playing the Walkers requires some ingenuity to maximize the orders/fortifies. Allows for great variety in playstyles. I only wish that there were more scenarios.
I find this board very tricky with lots of strategy, I also find it one of the most balanced boards I have played, with the humans needing to really work as a team up against large number of Zombies, but the Zombies only have a limited amount of moves, which simulates the "shuffling" nature of Zombies and they cant move very fast, the only drawback is that after the 4th round the game is pretty much decided. Although, I have never seen the Zombies open the barn effectively, which may be an interesting gambit?
