Can’t wait fingers crossed I can get a ticket to hopefully both.
Hey guys, I made piles of corpses for my hobby lab last month. I think they would be ideal to use as scatter and to build into the terrain that you’re putting together for this. Just give us an address and I’ll drop a bunch in the post 🙂

this a thousand times over!
Could do a full blown “when there is no more room in hell, then the dead will walk the earth” table
If there’s anything a post apocalyptic zombie themed table needs it’s a ton of dead bodies everywhere …
Nice scatter!
Hmm.. i am torn i have concert tickets on the 12th November… Argh
you know you want to…..
It will make you happy
but the band i am going to see are on my list of bands to see before they die….lol
Well I would think that Oscar winning director Peter Jackson’s Brain Dead would be a no brainer (pun very much intended, just not funny) and if you haven’the seen the new Evil Dead TV series by now Warren shame on you.
With that in mind a trailer park board would be a nice addition.
Hopefully I will grab a ticket and see you guys there.
What you really need is my Z section from my DVD hoard, 60+ zombie and splatter films of varying quality. So without it here are some films to watch/endure/survive mwhahahahahaha: Zombie Flesh Eaters 1 & 3 ignore 2 its a name cash-in worse than halloween 3: seasons of the witch… The zombie dead Night, Dawn & Day of the Dead (romero, not the rubbish remakes) Susperia not so much a zombie film, but its what i think of when i think 70’s horror decor Zombie nosh Brain Dead Bad Taste (how i wish there was LOTR out takes going, “jesus… Read more »
zombie flesh eaters 1, is that the one on the island? @nakchak
@zorg yup and the glass shard to eye scene, best use of a lychee in ZFX ever lol
nice one.
Night of the living dead : Shopping Mall There is one zombie film i have watched, but i can`t remember what it was called………………But from what i remember of it, you had this town / city that had a river that was used as a barrier to stop the dead from getting in, and it did not work. Through the film, you where taken back to the river every so often, where you saw a zombie looking at the town then at the river. This goes on for a while, then the last time you see the zombie at the… Read more »
Land of the Dead
Night of the living dead
dawn of the dead
day of the dead
land of the dead – Dead Reckoning!!!!
return of the living dead
planet terror – Rose McGowan hubba hubba, sorry ladies
shaun of the dead
zombieland – big yellow hummer, yes please
Dead Sno – have to have some zombie nazis
Black Sheep – baaaah!!
28 days later/28 weeks later (not technically zombie movies)
Z-Nation – zombinado, was hilarious
@warzan Z Nation restarts from episode one tonight on Ch153 pick 0.00Hr if you want some weird zombie stuff
How about
Warm Bodies the ultimate Zombie Romance film.. Lol it has an airport asa location and is actually not bad when you get past the zombie sees girl falls for girl, saves girl, girl falls for zombie they find a cure and live happily ever after.
sees girl, falls in love with girl and eats her obnoxious boyfriend’s brains, who says romance is dead
@warzan I love zombie movies so this list is a must see of the best the genre has to offer La horde – a French made non stop action zombie thriller, love this one Dead set – I believe it’s a 6 part mini series. Takes place on the set of uk big brother and one of my all time favs. Really catches the feeling of impending doom and dread. Not Not mention some great comedic moments sprinkled in but not overdone. Cemetery Man – another French masterpiece and it’s a dark comedy Return of the living dead – fast… Read more »
Re-animator is another dark comedic masterpi ce to watch
Planet Terror
Zombi 2 – from the master of horror Dario argento
Rec – great series of films from Spain. American version is called quarantine
Second thumbs up for Zombi 2/Zombie, although that was Lucio Fulci who directed, not Argento. They did collaborate a lot, so an honest mistake. Regardless, it’s the only film that has a Shark vs. Zombie underwater scene. So yeah, come for the shark vs. zombie battle, stay for the excruciatingly slow eye impalements. 😀
@warzan behind a can of Red Bull then we know that there is the smell of bootcamp in the air
He has switched brand
Two things I’d certainly arrange for considering it’s The Walking Dead: Hershel’s Farm (including a barn full of walkers!!) and The Prison. Should be easy enough to do and will set the scene nicely 😎
A multi story shopping mall with car parks, food courts, spread over a number of tables with an escalator/elevator mechanic to travel between tables to get different things you need.
I think it would be unique to have it set in the early stages of the zombie apocalypse and to have other non zombie NPC’s in the game. These characters are also just trying to stay alive by taking what you have got to add another depth to the game that you don’t normally see.
i remember watching the Evil dead with my cousins when they paid us a visit as a kid. like @warzan the trip to the VHS video rental shop detour for sweets and not really knowing what to expect as i had a sheltered upbringing video wise lol what i can remember though is the point when i was so engrossed with the movie both transfixed and horrified, my uncle grabbed my ankles and dragged me across the living room carpet where i nearly sh!t myself and screamed like a girl……….mmmm families…… even with such traumas i still love the Zombie… Read more »
Love to see you guys’ take on suburban terrain. Something like you see at the start of the Dawn of the Dead (the newer remake).
Always imagined a zombie movie called “Dai of the Dead” set in the Rhonnda Valleys. Think Stella meets Walking Dead. Lots of terraced houses on hills, lots of disgusting braindead zombies.. and the living dead.
“F*ck off butt. Bite me again and I will f*ckin slam ‘ew.”
lol
The burbs would be interesting to try and tackle
@warzan @dignity you guys should take a rest you look like s%$t in that picture?
when you said the burbs the first thing I thought of was the Tom Hanks film, I suppose an eastern european family stockpiling corpses in the basement of their house could give rise to a zombie apocalypse
American suburbs would be nice if you can come up with all the same type of building in different colors. The uniform lawn size would also make it easier to section off the map in discreet zones where people can run from fortress ranch house to fortress ranch house. If pursuing a more rural map like what you show in the video though, I would recommend a lot less hedging. Usually in America here in the south or midwest, you will generally have a house that you live in surrounded my a normal green lawn with a few trees, a… Read more »
where we can fly to for boot camp again @warren? I am trying to book fly ticket.
Belfast International, or the George Best City of Belfast airports are closest. Dublin will be cheaper but will add about 2 hours to the travel on the ground.
After the BoW crew is done creating those tables they will look like zombies 😉 Looking forward to seeing what kind tables you’re going to create. Evil dead … definitely. There’s been an ‘Evil Dead 2’ boardgame kickstarter, which made me wonder if a 3D version of that board could function for both games. As for zombie themed movies ? I seem to remember one where the zombies were the result of toxic pollution of some kind. – Herbert West : Re-animator ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089885/ ) – New Kids : Nitro ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2043932 ) It’s a Dutch movie. Think of it… Read more »
You got to have a table based around the BoW studio`s…
Finley have a use for that Ice cream van..
Totally forgot about this one : ‘Zombibi’
info : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombibi
It’s got subtitles in the trailer :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTxh8rDKLsI
I haven’t seen it myself, but there’s a movie called night of the comet. It’s set mostly in a shopping mall and I’m told it’s “very eighties”.
No other suggestion than, yay vlogs!
Doesn’t the Walking Dead take place all in Georgia? Some suburban terrain would be cool. Also lots of southern US woods, Australian pine, ash, birchwood, cypress. Should one board feature a prison complex? 😀 Fans of the show know what I’m talking about. And for the love of God, and this is not negotiable . . . if you guys are doing zombies . . . the post-zombie-apocalypse ICE CREAM TRUCK of Justin and Warren must make an appearance somewhere. 😀 Sadly, I can’t come to the zombie boot camp. But if the zombie boot camp goes off WITHOUT the… Read more »
Yar, both the comic and the original TV series are both set and filmed in Georgia. Which makes one wonder why everyone isn’t more heavily armed. 😀
Hmm, you BoW guys ever been to suburban America? The way you think it looks, would be like me thinking that suburban Ireland and England is thatched roofs on huts with blankets for doors, live stock roaming in the front yards. Maybe in Appalachia and 20 miles outside cities, like Atlanta, where Walking Dead is supposed to take place, but Fear the Walking Dead starts in Los Angeles. Other zombie movies occur in other densely built up cities where a horde might pop out of any alley (28 Weeks Later comes to mind and that was in downtown London). Less… Read more »
