World War Z RPG

[Rabidchild]

World War Z a treasure trove of concepts just waiting to be fleshed out. Multiple time-periods available. Classic zombie setting. You could play in the lead up to the Great Panic; a modern setting. You could play during WWZ for an apocalyptic setting. Play post-WWZ for an exploration/rebuilding post-apocalyptic game with minor Zombie action.

Tons of great settings to explore all over the world; the Alpha Teams of the USA, the birth of the Holy Russian Empire, the Chinese Civil War, Israeli Voluntary Quarantine, Ship Refugees lashing their vessels together at sea, investigate why everyone in North Korea vanished without a trace, explore the radioactive wastelands created by the limited nuclear exchange between Iran and Pakistan.

It has a movie on the way and the Zombie Survival Guide would be another huge source of ideas for a game.

Ah, thanks for the reply and after some searching I found the previous discussion here.

I agree with what other said, that the Survival Guide is practically a players guide without stats. I hope JMS doing the movie doesn't put Mongoose off of the idea for such a rich RPG, I know there's been issues between the two in the past.
