## Description
If you thought surviving the zombie apocalypse was already a nightmare, get ready: the Sentinels have arrived to make everything worse! Sentinel Strike is the Kickstarter exclusive expansion for Marvel Zombies that introduces these towering, relentless robots into the fray. The goal here is to crank up the difficulty, as the Sentinels don't just hit hard; they adapt to your strategies and coordinate their attacks to corner and eliminate anything that moves. To them, it doesn't matter if you're a living hero or a hungry zombie: if you're a mutant, you're a target.

But it's not all doom and gloom. To balance the scales, the expansion brings Professor X into the fight, available in both Super Hero and Zombie Hero versions, providing that strategic mental control we all love. And there's a twist: you can even turn the tables and take control of Nana, a reprogrammed Sentinel fighting alongside the players. It's the perfect example of 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend.'

In terms of content, the box delivers Sentinel-focused scenarios that can be played in both Zombie Mode (using the New York tiles from the base game) and Hero Mode (exploring the X-Mansion from the X-Men Resistance box). The visual highlight is definitely the Sentinel miniatures: imposing 12cm pieces that dominate the table and provide a true sense of epic scale. You can add these robots to any base game scenario to add an extra layer of challenge, turning a simple mission into a desperate fight for survival. If you're a fan of the Zombicide line and want to feel the pressure of being hunted by killer machines, this expansion is a must-have.

## FAQ
### Which game do I need for this expansion?

### Can I play it solo?
Yes, the expansion remains compatible with the Zombicide system's solo rules.

### Is the game complex?
