Aliens vs. Zombies

A two-player light wargame about an alien invasion and the reanimated dead seeking revenge. The alien side fields fewer units with superior weapons and armor, while the zombie side has larger numbers divided into rotting, tough, and fast types. Each turn, players move and attack, with aliens using explosive attacks and zombies chomping opponents to create new allies. A tile is revealed each turn to determine zombie spawns and special events. After eight turns, the number of destroyed zombies determines the victor.
