Ah... Seems like I'm a little late to the party, but I come bearing news. The first game of HvZ took place just last week. It was quite interesting to see the wide variety of weaponry everyone possessed. I saw everything from a tiny 3 shot pistol to a drum fed, full auto blaster.
Unfortunately, I did not get to participate, as I couldn't attend the rules and safety meeting... I was able to observe the strategic planning of both sides, however; and not only did I see one of our then human brethren be taken down; I witnessed a standoff between a single person from each side. It was intense as neither side was willing to give in. This shows one strategy, but the main ideal for both sides was to move in groups, with the survivors to watch each other's backs and the horde to swarm anyone they came across.
The zombies were quick and organized, much more so than the humans. I saw a group of 5 zombies sprint across the quad after a single human. He fought valiantly, but sadly, he was defeated. It wasn’t long before all of the survivors began meeting the same fate… Then as the final day neared a close, I began hearing screams of joy. The zombies had succeeded… all of our friends and family… all of them were now blood thirsty zombies. Even as I type this, I can still hear the scraping of the zombies trying to break in… If anyone is out there, send reinforcements. Learn from our failure. Stay together, stay alert. They’re always watching. I don't know if anyone will ever see this, but I'll keep sending updates on the situation here at Berea.
This was an intense game. I noticed that people really got into character, just as you have done with this blog. As you alluded to, strategy is the key to this game.
