When DCeased was announced a lot of returning fans were a little disappointed to learn there would be no playable Zombie mode to match with Marvel Zombies. Now of course there are a number of reasons for this; they’ve been explained elsewhere if you’re interested. As for myself, I say there’s always reasons not to do something. I think a bunch of us want to do it anyway. So this is my effort, over the coming months, before the Kickstarter ships out I will have posted playable rules for every Zombie Hero. You can mix them with your Marvel Zombies, custom up some rules to run them in DCeased missions, or just laugh at how bad my ideas are. Lots of people have some cool ideas for how to make these characters. These are just mine.
My customs are designed to feel balanced next to existing designs. They are designed with simplicity in mind; simplicity is what makes Zombicide so fun. I also design my customs to match the sculpt of the model and the version and powers that are presented there. In designing custom playable Zombie Heroes I have developed the term “Militia” as a shorthand to mean Trooper, Guard or Specialist. All cards were made using Wuxyteo’s card creator, which is pretty great.
With that explanation out of the way; here’s Zombie Superman! The last son of Krypton is in pretty rough shape at the time of infection, with a severed arm and pretty severe Kryptonite exposure, so he is not as powerful as he might otherwise be. I do intend to develop a fully unleashed version of him that is closer in power to Zombie Thanos and would count as two heroes. But for this version, he’s very good and very strong, but he’s had a bit of his power drained by his wounds and kryptonite exposure, so he should be about as strong as Giant-Man.
