Suggestion description

There is an NPC ice cream truck driver cruising around Malton. This guy has the last working vehicle and a truck load of ice cream. Unfortunately for him, the zombies outside are more interested in his brains than in ice cream. (Imagine this poor sap being chased by little kid zombies...!)

Here's how it works. The ice cream truck "spawns" in a random suburb. It has 100 HP (representing the truck plus the driver), and it moves 5 blocks in a random direction every time it is attacked or healed. Because it is an ice cream truck, it also plays music that can be heard for five blocks (you can hear it inside buildings as well as outside).

Zombies can attack the truck as normal. The zombie lucky enough to destroy the ice cream truck gets his name on a leader board (similar to the Easter egg hunt leader board). In the event this happens, the truck will "respawn" in a different suburb.

Survivors can trade first aid kits for ice cream, so healing the driver places the item "ice cream" in your inventory, which can be eaten (+5 HP) or given away as a gift.

In the event that the ice cream truck attempts to cross the border, anyone with a radio will hear a message that the driver either (A) sucessfully ran throught the blockades, or (B) was killed in a hail of gunfire and RPG's.

Kill Votes

1. Author kill - Call me cynical, but I'd rather chase the guy down and syphon the gas out of his truck than eat his ice cream. What kind of a dummy would suggest something like this anyway? --Uncle Bill 04:15, 21 April 2007 (BST)
