I'd give the DC to sport the zombies before the surprise round a substantial boost - after all, they've been standing there for how many decades/centuries? They've had the time.Standard action in the surprise round should be used to make a charge - multiple zombies from each size - after the first couple, it's a +4 bonus on their attacks, +2 from charging, +2 from flanking.Another option would be replace them with different undead - advanced wights are usually good in that role.Add an unhallow and a desecrate effect to the area. You could tweak the bonuses slightly so that they stack (both are profane as written).Consider giving the zombies a bonus on grappling if several of them attempt to do so in the same round - especially if the character is surrounded. Maybe a +2 or so bonus on the checks per zombie attempting to grapple.</blockquote>
