Howdy, zombie western fans! The Running Wild expansion for Zombicide: Undead or Alive gallops in to bring a whole new dynamic to your undead-hunting sessions. Get ready to see your Survivors not just on foot, but also riding their trusty horses, adding an extra layer of strategy and mobility to the game. But, as not everything is sunshine and rainbows in the zombie apocalypse, this expansion also introduces a terrifying threat: the zombie horse! Yes, that's right, an equine nightmare that will test your survival skills in a very different way.
At the start of each game, Survivors begin mounted, granting them special movement skills and a bonus to their chances of hitting zombies. When the situation calls for them to dismount to enter buildings, for example, miniatures are swapped, and the horse is left behind as a 'Lone Horse' token. Each rider has exclusive Blue level skills that enhance their actions while mounted, making the decision to stay on horseback or dismount a crucial one.
Running Wild comes packed with components to supercharge your games: you'll find 6 Survivor figures on foot, 6 figures of the same Survivors mounted (yes, two versions for each!), 1 Abomination figure (and it's a zombie horse, pay attention!), 6 Survivor ID cards, 1 Abomination card, 6 Lone Horse tokens, and 6 oversized colored bases for the miniatures. It's the perfect dose of western and horror that your Zombicide needed to become even more epic and unpredictable. Get ready to ride and slice zombies like never before!
