(Hopefully, I missed nobody...)

I am now at 25, and this is good.

Before playing the 8th scenario "A plane to catch", here are the quick rules update and the random events.

Characters (* means that they need to test for "Harry are you ok" at the beginning)

who survived the 4 previous US scenario so far

Star : Lieutenant  Mallory Mc Cain (REP: 5, PEP: 4, SAV: 3) – SKILL Born Leader, Fast
*Sergeant Johnson (REP: 5, PEP: 3 , SAV: 4) – SKILL Fast

*Scott (REP: 4, PEP:3 , SAV: 2) – SKILL Dim - no ammo

1 scenario old

*Kyle (Paratrooper) (REP: 4, PEP:2 , SAV:3 ) - Skill Runt

Morgan (Commando) (REP: 4, PEP:2 , SAV:3 ) - Skill Slow

Paulson (Tanker) (REP: 4, PEP:2 , SAV:3 ) - Skill Logical

*Kowalsky (Paratrooper) (REP: 4, PEP:2 , SAV:3 ) - Skill Attractive

Germans deserters who joined in the previous scenario

Lorenz (Officer), Fast, REP 4, SMG

Max (Soldier), Dim, REP 5, Rifle

*Oliver (Soldier), Dim, REP 5, Rifle

Infected soldiers:

For any soldier who failed the Harry are you ok from the Outpost scenario:

Roll 1 dice every turn. On 1, they die. Every turn, roll 1d6, on 1-2-3, they resurrect as a zombie.

To suicide, the character must roll a REPd6 and pass with 2 success. Only "1" is a success.

The aircraft

The aircraft is a C47 with a capacity of 28, excluding 2 pilots and 2 soldiers to protect the aircraft on the ground.

Pilot : REP 4, REP 5

Soldiers: REP 5, REP 4

The aircraft will land d6 turn after the signal. Johnson and Scott have the signal flare that will generate d6 zombies once used.

The aircraft will generate 2d6 sounds once he lands.

Possible encounters (replace the random event)

#	Result
3	No More Zed will be generated for the encounter
4	Plane crash! For unknown reasons, the plane stalled and crashed. A new plane will arrive in d10 turns. But maybe there are survivors? (PEF generated there, roll a dice for each crew. - 6: Survived - 4-5: wounded -1-2-3: dead

For event 14, I was thinking of the following:

New miniatures painted for a good September start!

Last week saw good progress on some of my professional activities, and the full start of the school year for the kids.

I enjoyed a couple of zombicide games. It was my first try and I liked it. Likely because this was played along with a good friend.
I played also my first game of Bolt Action at the FLG and it went good with a striking victory of my pure British para against a German force. Hurray for the sniper and the tetrarch.

And here are the new miniatures that are coming to lend a hand in my games.

2 Vault Troopers

Partisan's squad and ATZ character

Battle for Alabaster, a monster, and a Fallout potential encounter

Drone or securibot

Alien, thing, I still need to figure it out

Imperial Psycher

Psycher being mutant in nature, this one has a yellow skin

August wrap-up

August was eventful, thanks to readers.

I increased the number of followers and now, I stand at 19.

I kickstarted Incursion and it was successful. I supported at Bucket of Blood level, and that will give a lot of miniatures that I can use for Secret of the Third Reich.

I also fell into a trap last week, I followed a Bolt Action game and ended up with the Rule Book and the Great Britain Codex. I also went on the warlord website and pre-ordered the incoming France and Allies because there are Partisan rules. And I have a lot of partisans to play.

On top of it I painted more than expected even if the photos have not been up and plan to complete a lot more this month.
I am getting excited about the next scenarios of ATZ-FFO, having worked on the stories, and, as it seems to happy more often than not, lost some miniatures in one of my stash, hidden from the dear-one who may be upset if she realized the quantity of non-edible stuff I acquired this year....
More on that later!

Thanks for reading.
