[QUOTE="Janx, post: 5750219, member: 8835"] Having re-read this, I gotta say, the OP exhibited a lot of mistakes. When the GM tells you the game is like XYZ, look it up. He was advising you that combat was lethal, dangerous and not something to be undertaken frequently. It was not a zombie kill fest and anybody familiar with zombie themes would have known this. The majority of zombie films are NOT about the protagonists killing lots of zombies and having a great time. The internet is chock full of how to survive a zombie apocaplypse. I'm pretty sure your way is NOT on the list. Yeah, that makes sense. Airports are high contagion factor places and large with poorly managed exits. Going there would be a terrible idea. Few supplies, extra people to help is a common theme of initial zombie outbreak. Getting out-voted is exactly what happens in a group. When the majority wants to go left, you go left or go by yourself. You would have gotten ambushed sitting in the truck outside. It's a zombie outbreak. Until you find the BEST place to hole up, every place will not be safe for long. Once you attacked another person, you became :):):):):):):)OfTheMovie. The party was in their rights to kill you and use you as bait. I'm pretty sure it's in every zombie survival guide to avoid or kill the :):):):):):):)WhoTakesCharge because he's not just providing leadership, he's hurting the group. Seriously, that was pisspoor behavior on your part. This was the group's attempt to reign in your behavior as a PC. It's not about following some plot or style like the show. It's about basic group behavior in an RPG. And you just don't go threatening and killing your fellow party members (including NPCs). The group chose to handle this out of game, rather than in game by killing your PC. He wants to have a game that runs like most zombie outbreaks. They are not like Resident Evil with super-human protagonists. The protagonists are weak, scared and out-numbered and need to cooperate to survive. You not only got somebody killed, you committed murder of a party ally. In front of the party. And you did it because you did not get your way. Your friends were trying to cut you a break because you did not get how to behave in a group game. If I was in a game where a fellow PC just ganked one of the group (and NPCs are one of the group), I would seriously get rid of that PC. Leave him behind while he slept, lock him out, or simply shoot him in the back. That's how terrible you misbehaved at the game with your friends. [/QUOTE]
