What you do in a play session

Hey everyone! If you're already into the zombie chaos of Zombicide and want to add a master artist's touch to your collection, this box is for you! This special edition brings four brand-new survivors, created by the renowned artist Marc Simonetti, the guy behind incredible illustrations for "A Song of Ice and Fire" and many other fantasy worlds. Just imagine: having characters with the distinctive style of an artist of this caliber on your board!

Inside this box, you'll find the survivors Cadence, Antha the Witch, Redcap Rodney, and Lady Grimm. Each of them not only has a unique look but also brings those special abilities we love in Zombicide, completely changing the dynamic of your games. They arrive to power up Zombicide: Black Plague, offering more variety and, of course, more zombies to take down!

It's an expansion, so you know the drill: you need the base game to join the fight. But the promise here is more fun, with characters that are true works of art and will make your missions against the undead even more epic. If you're a Zombicide fan, appreciate well-crafted miniatures, and want to add an element of art and exclusivity to your gaming sessions, this special box is a real treat.
