Operation Band-Aid is an effort to discuss and generate a series of policies that create a legitimate endgame and worthwhile gameplay experience for Survivors, without appealing to Kevan to change the rules drastically in our favor. After all, this is a Zombie Apocalypse, right? No whining:)

Some preliminary suggestions to get the ball rolling

  • Let's crunch numbers to find the greatest concentration of resource buldings and most defendable places in Malton. These should be survivor Meccas. To that end, I scraped the maps on the wiki to generate a list of all the cityblocks, with their 'burbs and coords. [1]
  • Let's figure out some clever ways to use killed-in-action survivors to spy and cause chaos within the attacking hordes rather than standing around at RPs while surrounding buildings are trashed.
  • Let's come up with an updated policy on Combat Revives to reflect their currently high cost. This might involve creating a small team strategy with each member filling a different role. However you feel about CR, talk about revivification will be crucial to any pro-survivor endgame.
  • Let's talk a lot in game! Talking and RP make the game fun! The ability to speak is our only true gift as harmanz!

If we had to ask Kevan to change a rule ever so slightly...

  • Some people want 0-AP speech, I think this is too big of an advantage. Perhaps raising the character limit slightly on the radio broadcasts would be enough to tip the scales in our favor again.
