Zombicide Black Plague

There were around in medieval times!

Humans in cooperative efforts against zombies controlled by the game, to complete mission goals and survive. Turns are split into player phase and zombie phase. Players activate their Survivors for three actions each - abilities acquired during the game can give you more - for movement, eliminating zombies and completing tasks for completing missions, according to copious and detailed rules. Zombies use one action each to attack a Survivor or to move towards survivors or the loudest area on the board. When all mission goals have been achieved, humans win; zombies win any quest/mission by eliminating all survivors.

Zombicide Black Plague is a stand-alone edition with a Dark Medieval topic and featuring magical elements, including a tutorial and ten quests. The essential rules and mechanisms have been taken from the Zombicide games with a modern times theme, and you can also create scenarios in which you combine components from both period editions. Rules details have been adapted to the new setting, and there is a new, fifth type of Zombies, the Necromancer, with copious special rules. Weapons are Near or Far Range weapons and Combat Spells, attacks with Combat Spells are treated as Far Range attacks; Enchantments are applied to a character or zone in line of sight.

Black Plague offers breathtaking game fun, beginning with the design of the game, and the game is exactly what it promises – a conflict game with some tactics, basically simple rules and the opportunity to have your characters gain experience and then having to cope with more Zombie opponents. A real jewel in the Zombie genre.
