Zombicide Black Plague: Deadeye Walkers (How to Play)

[@granthutchings271]

Can't wait for my box to show up in the Green Horde second wave in June! I have house ruled all zombies hit on 4+ so melee survivors aren't under powered among other things so I'm not too worried about these guys being too strong. As for people saying its too implausible for zombies to be 'intelligent' archers. Firstly the fact that they are zombies is already fictitious so that complaint is already kind of nit picky, but this is Black Plague! A fantasy zombie Apocalypse with Necromancers and dark magic! Sure Magic is a cop out explanation but I think it works here. Also they're animated Skeletons not technically zombies, they are somehow walking around without muscles, and are shooting you with pinpoint accuracy without eyes! Clearly they are controlled with some malevolent evil force like in Diablo or Skyrim. If it was Zombicide modern with zombies firing guns, yeah that would be dumb. Skeleton archers in a fantasy game? Awesome.

Great video! I was surprised to learn so much from your gameplay demo and you explained it all very well.

I think its a good box to have, and if you wanted to make it a little more interesting maybe make the Deadeyes have to roll for range attacks? Say like a 3 or better for hits? I think that would make it a little more reasonable

nice video, bro. to solve the opness of thise range zombies its to make some homerules and make them role a dice.

[@VamireonDarkBladeGamingPortal]

After some testing, i found them workable. Thry are definately scary though.

[@Grimmsterboy]

I wish this was in stock somewhere online

[@VamireonDarkBladeGamingPortal]

I am having a similar problem trying to Gears of War: Mission pack 1.

[@lycanoftheunderworldselene]

I use house rules where the Archer zombies also have to throw dice in order to hit the survivors. On a roll of a 4,5 or 6 they hit.

Very informative video, Vamireon DarkBlade. I just today received my Deadeye Walkers and am eager to incorporate it in my games.

[@lukecamp4902]

I give my necromancers the ability to shoot mana blasts at range 3 (no dice) because i think it makes them cooler and more magical because i dont have dead eye walkers. Cool video bro :)

[@ratrod67]

I need these!!! Can no longer be found for a reasonable amount now. I'm always a day late and a dollar short. lol Great informational video.

21 figures. 7 of each sculpt. And these undead Archers are one of the 3 nastiest enemies in the game.

good review... Just perplexed how people don't understand zombie archers. Has anyone ever played a video game or Dungeons and dragons. Skeleton archers are like a staple. Their sole purpose is shooting enemies. DMs always sparkly add them since they pose a good threat. If you don't like the power then home rule. Lower the range or give it the same dice roll as a longbow. We are talking a zombie invasion mastered by necromancers and survivors that can cast fireballs... Skeletons who shoot arrows isnt that far fetched.

[@HeresyProducktionz]

Nice one, I think it looks like a great box I like the element it adds to the game. I suppose if I can believe that necromancers exist and can create all kinds of zombies (I.e. Abominatrolls) then I can handle a zombie archer :) (they look a bit more like skeleton archers to me) cheers

[@VamireonDarkBladeGamingPortal]

I like them a lot. They are in every mission i play now.

[@Oneup572]

Ya house rule here .. zombie roll to hit and defend die check to save

[@VamireonDarkBladeGamingPortal]

Yeah... the horde should be less skilled archers than the living.

[@carbondragon]

To me they are just too implausible, even for a zombie game. Just feature creep for the zombies.

[@VamireonDarkBladeGamingPortal]

I like the feature they bring to the game, but skilled zombies do not line up with the basic idea of zombies always being mindless.
