Colored Equipment (1E)

COLORED EQUIPMENT

Classic Zombicide does not have any visual distinction between the different type of equipment cards. There are no hints on the Molotov, Nailbat or Pimpweapon cards indicating that these cards should be kept separate, nor are there any hints on the Nightstick or Pan cards not to include these cards when reshuffling the discarded cards to form a new search deck. Instead, you must check each of your Rulebooks individually to determine which cards go into the search deck, and which cards need to be kept separate.

Later editions of Zombicide printed these cards in different colors. Black Plague uses gray for starting weapons and blue for Vault weapons. Invader uses gray for starting weapons and red for Prototype weapons. Second edition uses gray for starting weapons and red for Epic weapons.

This module includes copies of the official cards in gray for starting weapons, in green for craftable weapons (Molotov and Nailbat), and in blue for Pimpweapons. These are intended to replace the existing red cards where included.

The gray cards cover reasonable setups for 6 Survivors for each of the three core boxes, and include an extra Claw Hammer, Pan and Pistol, to support slightly larger groups.

The blue cards cover all official Pimpweapons, and four extra bonus cards: Concrete Saw, Flamethrower, Ross’ Bowling Ball and Will’s Comet Launcher. These four cards are the only four unique cards in the Search deck (besides Ultrared cards and Donatello’s Bo Staff), as well as the only four cards in the Search deck (besides Ultrared cards and Proton Packs) that can kill an Abomination without relying on the help of skills or other cards. Feel free to decide whether to include these cards as Pimpweapons or not.

The five cards that received a second copy during the Season 3 Kickstarter are included twice in this module. Feel free to decide whether to include these cards once or twice.

CARD FRONTS AND BACKS

The cards are available with a red background on the front for all cards, and in a combination of gray, green and blue backgrounds. The card backs are also available in red and in a combination of gray, green and blue. Feel free to decide whether to print the cards with colors on the front side only, on the back side only, or on both sides of the cards.

If you keep the card backs red, the cards can still be easily shuffled into the search deck or another small deck, when the mission asks you to do so.

If you make the card backs gray, green and blue, the cards stand out more, making it easier to separate them. However, they can no longer be easily shuffled into the search deck. In those situations, you can use the official cards instead.

PRINTING

The files to print the ID sheets are included in the Printing folders. Use the A4 or Letter Printing folder depending on your printer type. Print either the Backs Red or the Backs Color file, and either the Cards Red or the Cards Color file.

Always print the files at 100% no scaling, even if the images fall outside the printer’s margins! Cropping off bleed is fine.

Note that the card backs are swapped left to right compared to the card fronts. This allows you to glue the full pages together before cutting the individual cards.
