## Description
The Presidential Box is an expansion for Zombicide: 2nd Edition that adds six new survivors, all former Presidents of the United States. Each president comes with a miniature, character sheet, and the signature Red Button—a special ability that can turn the tide of a game with a single press. You can field these leaders as regular survivors in your usual campaigns or pair one with the Washington map for a more thematic scenario. The box includes high‑quality miniatures, character cards, equipment tokens, and Red Button markers, matching the robust aesthetic of Zombicide. While the core game remains cooperative, the expansion injects political humor and fresh strategies, as each president possesses unique powers that can synergize with different play styles. No new complex rules are required; just follow the familiar action‑and‑movement flow of the base game, adding the new cards and button when appropriate. Instructions are provided for integrating the presidents into the Washington map, enabling exclusive missions where the Capitol can serve as both an extraction point and a zombie‑infested target. Playtime stays around the typical 60 minutes, though the extra characters may spark extra laughs and debates about the best presidential survivor. Perfect for 1‑6 players who already love Zombicide and want a historical‑political twist to their undead battles. If you don’t own the base game yet, purchase it first, as this box is a supplement, not a standalone game.
