Sure thing--got some errands to run but when I get back I'll post more info. The color of the green in the image above is not quite right for some reason, it's darker in actuality like the sample on my blog.

One tidbit though, the game uses the Action Table system as featured in TIMEMASTER and Chill 1e.

Wow. I shall be picking this up along with a hard copy of Timemaster!

The book will be a complete game within 64 pages.

There are guidelines for a number of issues that feature in this sort of game, so that you can construct your world and sequence of events easily.

Guidelines for:

How the zombie rise occurs

Types of zombies and different zombie characteristics

How to construct a timeline for societal collapse (when does power go out? how much food is typically left on grocery store shelves? and many other topics...)

Guidelines for scavenging

How decomposition may affect zombie performance

Are there an small adventures or scenarios in the book? Or will there be an adventures or other books forthcoming?

There won't be an adventure in the book but there will be maps of a few sample locations where you can stage a survival session. I do hope to release scenarios and supplements as time goes on.

I have a few Zombie type RPGs(AFMBE, Year of the Zombie, NOTLD) and adventures/scenarios seem to be the most difficult thing to make (or find to buy!).
Gauging the danger & reward is hard. Id really like to see a campaign book with a bunch of linked scenarios.

Mutant Future...
Timemaster...
And now a zombie horror survival game.

Dan, you are single-handedly hitting every gaming genre I enjoy in one fell swoop. Kudos!

(Plus it uses the Action Table I'm incredibly familiar with!)

Too cool!

Don't shoot till they yell, "brains!"
