One person starts out as a zombie with full auto and less life but unlimited respawns. Everyone else is a human with their gun set to bolt action mode. Whenever a human dies they are respawned as a zombie with unlimited respawns. Played on a short time span, (10 minutes or less) this game is very tough on the humans, who have fewer and fewer allies as time goes on and have to create and maintain a perimeter under increasing fire.<\/p>\n<p>Strategies and Tactics:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For humans to survive they MUST work together it is very rare for any humans to survive the entire game if they split up and hide. Instead, humans would be well-advised to start the game by setting an ambush. Wait for the zombie to enter the ambush kill zone and then open fire from behind. Remember: for every hit the zombie makes on you it&#8217;s a hit you&#8217;ll never get back, but the zombies will respawn infinitely, so don&#8217;t get into a shooting match with the zombies! When the zombie dies move your whole ambush somewhere else as soon as possible. Rinse, wash, repeat.<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;ve been turned into a zombie then congratulations! You&#8217;re now on the team that&#8217;s almost certain to win! Coordinate with your fellow zombies and let them know what you&#8217;ve heard the humans planning most recently, then go flank them wherever you think they might be.<\/li>\n<li>Wide zombie lines (a la the British Redcoats) are nice because it&#8217;s hard to hit more than one zombie at the same time but most of the zombies should be able to return fire in an ambush. Make sure to keep your spacing, though: don&#8217;t stand too close to one another. Wide lines are also great for flushing out humans.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zombie games are in many ways the reverse of a Sniper game.
