Reply To: The Walking Dead: All out War

I own the “Walking Dead: All Out War” and love playing it and also playing around with it.

My start was the purchase of WDAOW collector´s edition, with a lot of survivors and many many roamers. Later on I bought three booster packs, Morgan distraught father, Andrea and Carol. I like the sculpts of all mins very much. Painting was a joy, too, however I´m not a helluva good painter, such as our mate further above, so I´m reluctant to show off my stuff, let alone from close quarters.

The edition I bought includes the “Prelude to Woodbury”, so there are Brian, solo rules and some more things to enjoy.

There is a a lot of solo play for me, because I´m a bit “far off” where I live, a kind of gaming no-man´s-land.

I was a bit disappointed after I had tried the scenarios in the books, because there are so few of them. And furthermore, by far not all the many miniatures of the box were included in the scenarios. That´s why I made up scenarios of my own including all the miniatures from the collector´s edition set and linked them together to make a story.

In order to make it possible to replay that stuff I wrote everything down, alas only in my own language, so posting will be a problem should anyone be interested. I could translate it, though. Anyway, making up the scenarios, twisting and adding rules, inventing the story, and using all the contents of my box was really highestly enjoyable. One nice thing was to include events from the TV series. And playtesting one´s own scenarios is yet another hobby aspect.

Next thing I´ll try to do is to create scenarios with my booster packs and including them all into the story that allready exists.

I promise, it is fun to do and the sky is the limit. Next thing I´ll buy will be “Days Gone By” (hard to come by here) , because then I´ll be able to invent my own survivors. The new survivors I have made up so far are derived from the ones that allready exist, which works, but I believe the creation will be better and easier with the rules from “Days Gone By”.

Good to read that people like WDOAW. Thank you for the post.
