…and no, I’m not talking about Zombie Strippers giving table dances.

I’m talking about an incredible new zombie roleplaying game I’ve almost finished! Dust off that copy of the Ultimate Zombie Survival Handbook, ’cause you’re gonna need it. You play the part of a survivor in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, fighting to stay alive. Grisly, walking corpses wander the streets, society crumbles and collapses, and a few heroes rise to the occasion to make sure that humanity survives the undead holocaust.

So far, I’ve created over fifty original illustrations for the book. This will be a standalone book, including everything you need to play the game (except for dice, paper, pencil, and braaaaiiiiins). The mechanics are based on the d20 Modern system, with notable modifications.

Of course, we wouldn’t send you out against armies of the undead unarmed. You’ll be able to scavenge weapons, equipment, and other useful bits of refuse from the wreckage of civilization. You’ll also learn new skills, tricks, and abilities to make you more than a match for the average mindless zombie. Too bad that’s not all you’ll be up against…..

Hey, everyone! I believe I’ve wrapped up the Commission! I finished the colors this evening, and wanted to show you. What do you all think? This is essentially a collaboration, so you guys have a say here, too. What do you think? Is it finished? How do you like it? Give it to me straight! Hope you love it. I sure do.
