Publisher's blurb:
Where were you on the day the earth died?
An unexplained cataclysm is infecting the world. Millions are dying and rising as flesh-consuming ghouls. Entire cities are roaming graveyards, and even the countryside is overrun with creatures in search of living flesh.
You begin in the first days of the outbreak, trapped aboard the maiden voyage of a state-of-the-art cruise ship that quickly becomes a floating graveyard. As you manage to escape back to land, the world around you is just about dead. The military can’t stop the spread of the infection, the government has relocated to the Rocky Mountains, and those remaining are banding together for survival—some seeking safety in numbers and others seeking to use their numbers to overpower and dominate the weak.
Can you survive in a world looking to eat you and turn you into another walking corpse? Can you trust other survivors not to kill you and take your supplies? It's a world where you must fight the dead, but fear the living.
War of the Dead is an ongoing campaign for the award winning Savage Worlds role-playing game that takes you from the first days of the outbreak, and all the way into a world war torn and forever changed.
Included in Volume One are Setting Rules, new Edges and Hindrance, a new rule for using bennies, and the first 26 adventures of the 52-adventure campaign.
So gather your supplies, check your ammunition, keep your loved ones close, and prepare to enter a war for survival... a War of the Dead!
