Corrections from the designer Jacob: - Ruth is one of the more difficult characters (but she's my all-time favorite!) because some of her starting cards can't go back in the deck after you've played them (Shotgun, Trapper Skill, Blockbuster), so you really have to be careful not to get a too thin deck. - When you retrieve a card, it goes directly into play, not to your hand. - After a zombie attacks you, it is killed, not discarded. So in the second mission you discussed, a valid strategy is to take a few wounds early on just to kill off the zombies. If you play Run!, they are only discarded and will come back later, along with reinforcements. It suits Ruth well too, since she doesn't have Run! cards anyway, and can use her Pub to heal up afterwards.
i am liking this. i did get my copy yesterday and also the expansion today. i was going to play it last night but i got lazy! i have it setup on my side table right now and Spring Meadow on my main table. i also received my Boardtopia buys today. i got a couple games. ill post photos tonight.
@@travelinwithTODDI just added some notes from the designer. I made a mistake managing the zombies. When I play correctly maybe I’ll get past campaign 3
Ah. Good to know. I got side tracked. My mother went in the hospital so I haven't did much the last few days. I did play Draft and Write late last night, though. I like that game. Bu5 I like flip/roll and writes

Let me know if you think the expansion is a must have. I'm still stuck on campaign 3A. :( But will maybe try another character. I've been using Ruth.
I was going to start with Ruth tonight. I'll see how far i get. I play with out the expansion for now. Then add it once I learn the game
@@travelinwithTODD okay, good luck!!
