"Commandant, ve hafe been in zis filthy place for too long. Ve hafe to go back"

"But the zombie repellent devize iz getting veaker. Ve..."
The commander raised a hand.

Rats
REP 3, 3d6 in Melee, Survivor QRS, Impact 1




Possible encounters (replace the random event) (1d20)
1    Zombie repellent batterie died out.
2    “I hear something. Let’s split up”. 2 random characters splits to go to the nearest PEF.
3    Rats! Roll for how many rats
4    1d6 zombies are generated
5    PEF generated
6    A zombie was hiding, a random soldier is attack in the back.
7    Achtung Minen! Random character is affected by a 3" explosion with Impact 3
8    Adrenaline Rush. 1 extra activations for characters
9    All zombies generated are doubled (event may happen several times)
10    Argument breaks between the leader and one of the soldiers at random but within 4” and LOS. At each activation, roll 1d6 per REP of the 2 arguing. If the leader scores more, argument is over. If not, for each additional success of the soldier, roll 1d6 to attract zombies as normal
11    Damned roots. A random character has lost his backpack and all spare ammo.
12    V-Gaz! Every single person touched by the cloud must roll a "Harry, are you ok?" immediatly. In case of success, the character changed as a zombie in 1d3 turn. To suicide, the character must roll a REPd6 and pass with 2 success. Only "1" is a success.
13    Find a safe place to hunker down until next day. Able to immediately end the scenario
14    Friendly Fire. A gun discharges on another character by mistake
15    PEF
16    Tell My Wife. 1 random grunt will have increased damages (Tie = KD, KD=OOF, OOF=OD)
17    The closest dead zombie was not really dead. It stands up and move immediately 6” to the closest human in sight.
18    When there is one, there is more. All Zombie for the encounter will be 1 more than standard role.

    1. Real sewers are claustrophobic and merciless. The one I am using will be mostly large enough for 1 man.

  3. What a fascinating concept for a scenario. I look forward to reading what happens next. Just a small point, but what happens if you roll a 19 or 20 on the possible encounters table?

    1. The most difficult part was to find decent sewers. 19 or 20 will have no effect other than decreasing the zombie repellent device battery.
