A lot of the aspects of slavery are glossed over in fantasy and sci-fi fiction and games, but I wanted to paint a grim, gritty, and true to life picture of the horror that it is. Sadly, being a female meant it was worse.Still, I'll have to repeat this...YEAR OF THE ZOMBIE IS MEANT FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY DUE TO DEPICTIONS OF VIOLENCE, SAVAGERY, CANNABLISM, PROFANITY, AND CRUELTY!I like the setting, but it's definately not for everyone.Next six books are, BTW, in no particular order:Hold At All Costs: 1 "All You Can Eat Buffet": Picking up where HAAC:0 left off, with the PC's returning to the embassy to find out there's a general recall, and they're tasked to recover people and bring them back to the embassy.Hold At All Costs: 2 "SEMPER FI!" Continuing in the series, the PC's have to hold the embassy, and deal with difficulties. Exhausted, wounded, suffering battle fatigue, all they have to do is hold the place until everyone is evacuated. Should be easy, right right?Raiders (Working Title): Bring forth the bad-guy Raider types, but also differentiates between raiding for survival and raiding the old cities and towns compared to raiding convoys and surviving settlements. It also contains workups for automatic weapons fire, vehicle combat, scavenging rules.Headstompers & Stemwinders: Some of the roughtest guys out there. From good people, to people who don't care, to just plain eeeevil people. While it will be YotZ focused, they'll be good for any post apacolyptic setting.Rotting Backdrops: San Carillo The first in a series of how the Rising affected areas outlined and detailed in Modern Backdrops.The Road to Pain: Starting Zero Hour, this details a group of average people who go from stopping at a roadside accident out front of a truckstop to into the Rising. Probably a multi-module series, this is in response to repeated requests for a non-military campaign line of modules. I plan to eventually have ones for all kinds of backgrounds, that all intersect about the 5th module in each series.All in all, it looks like a lot of people are happy with it. I will admit I was worried it might not pack the right punch, or not quite have the feel I was looking for.If there was one thing I could change in the core book, it would have to be: More space. I would have loved to add about another 50 or 100 pages to it, but it was just getting so big.</blockquote>
