The new rule set for ZRD is coming along. The biggest problem I found with the first set is that there were too many little details to keep track of. Having multiple stats that changed during the game, for example, made everything more like an RPG (or worse, like D&D), which interrupted the flow of […]

I would post pictures of the amazing zombie tattoos (temporary) from Sara Woolley at New York Comic Con, but alas I cannot. There are problems with my computer and the internet connection I’m using. But at least I can link to them. … Okay, it seems I can’t. Stupid internet… http://sarawoolleynew.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/img_0210.jpg Check them out, they […]

It seems that my ability to reach the outside world has been impaired. For at least the next week I will be unable to post. This is an ongoing issue that, try as I might, I cannot resolve. My apologies to my followers; I will be back with many opinions on many subjects, but I’m […]

<<this post not endorsed by Meeple Source>> … <<but it should be…>> Found this little guy when I was searching for game pieces today… …and I just had to share him. Turns out Meeple Source also makes pirates, ninjas, princesses and monsters. Maybe we should see if they can churn out some roller derby girls? […]

I’d like to extend a heartfelt “Thank You” to our play testers. We’ve received some feedback in the past week and it’s encouraging to see that people are enjoying the game, despite it flaws. And we realize there are flaws: that’s why we need help with testing. So thank you, everyone, for taking the time […]

The rules for ZRD went public on November 3rd, 2011. It is now the 13th of April, and we’ve had no feedback. Honestly, I expected this. Chad and I started this project just after I moved across the country. Shortly after we wrote the rules, Chad decided to close his game store; a month later, […]
I want to thank Martin McIver for doing this interview with us. http://www.roller-derbyuk.co.uk/zombie-roller-derby-boardgame/ We appreciate it more than you think. Also, thanks to Jenny Thorne as well for adding to this piece by sitting down and doing the interview as well. It’s truly amazing what can be accomplished across the internet and the world in this day and age. […]
