After the Virus

If you need to draw and the draw deck is empty, reshuffle the discard pile to form a new draw deck before drawing (see draw/reshuffle rules on page 4).

Playing an Event is one of the available actions during the Action Phase (it’s listed as an action option alongside playing non‑events and scouting), so it uses your action unless the card text says otherwise (page 4).

Use the Prepare action to ready weapons and to add or spend ammo as specified; each weapon’s prepare cost and the rules for adding/using ammo are described in the Prepare/Use section and the ammo rules (pages 5 and 7).

Resolve the zombie attack step and any reactions, place wounds on the affected survivors when the attack succeeds, and remove killed zombie cards to the discard as described in the zombie attack and killed/discard rules (pages 5–6; wounds details on page 7).

Follow the save Survivors procedure and the Safe House event choices as laid out: the Safe House event gives specific option(s) you choose when playing it, and the steps to save survivors are detailed on page 8.
