Hi all, quick question...

The rules for movement I seem to be having some trouble with..

Well, first you need to stay in cohesion, so all in one inch of another.. Easy..
In ambush Z, you move the leader the required distance, and then move all the rest around him staying in cohesion. Easy...
But what about zombies who dont have a leader? how do you move those guys? Do I designate one of the models horde to be the center piece (leader) for the game, so all movement is based around it.. or do I get to pick and choose which one zombie I move, and then place the rest around it? I can see some wiggle room for abuse of that rule if the second holds to be how it can be done..

Thanks

what I always do is measure from basically front of z group- I just figured they were s*** heads anyway.
of course I can see measuring from center as well- what I've tried to keep in mind is like what the book says- its more of an area of control instead of actual position

Im going to guess zombie movement is going to get a lot more clear in any rewrite...

Measurement is from the center of the group. In the original AA and in AZ movement that's how things were measured. We've changed it in the new rules.

But it doesn't really matter. So long as everyone playing agrees in the beginning how you measure that's what will work.

I understand that these rules are made a little loose, in order to accommodate peoples play styles.. so i feel bad when I ask questions like this.. As I am curious to know how you guys (mostly the designers) intended it for use.

I also know the rules in AZ are meant to be quick and easy.. hence why I also purchased FoF so I can get a more detailed idea on how the system works..

I have another question.. seeing terrain is an abstract idea..when zombies move towards the living, will they move through walls of a building and go the shortest route? or would they move around the building?

And one more question.. LOS.. How do you determine LOS to units (living or zed) that are considered inside of a building.. For some reason I am assuming if the center of the unit is with in 2 inchs of the facing wall.. then they can be seen.. but I would like to know how you guys intended it.

Once again sorry for all the questions.. I am reading the rule book.. honest!
