Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jürgen Hubert" data-source="post: 3341517" data-attributes="member: 7177">For mid-to high level characters the challenge is less about whacking individual or even a large number of zombies, but any of the following:- Rescuing as many civilians as possible from the plague (after a certain point, the zombies simply spread too fast to kill all of them).- Establishing "safe zones" free of zombies where the survivors can stay, and get enough food, water, and other vital supplies to help them surivive for the duration of the crisis.- Develop tactics and strategies that allow you to wipe out most, if not all of the zombies in any given area, and then making sure that that area stays clean. After all, even a single zombie can restart the cycle if you are unlucky.- Return some sense of home for the future to the shell-shocked survivors who have seen their whole existence devoured by the undead horde - as well as probably many friends and family members.- Dealing with looters and other people profiteering from the situation.- Dealing with liches and other powerful undead who can control the zombies and suddenly gained a really massive undead army.- Deal with the warrior tribes across the border (orcs or otherwise) who were less vulnerable to the plague thanks to their way of life (lower population density, constant state of alertness against enemies, every member of the tribe knows how to fight etc.) and who now expand their territory and prey on the weakened humans.- Deal with both revolutions of peasants who feel that their leadership betrayed them during the crisis and warlords now trying to carve out their own territory.In some ways, such a zombie plague might only be the beginning of a campaign.</blockquote>
