Posthumous Z: In production

Starting February 14th, 2011, the manufacturing process began on Posthumous Z. The game is being self published.

For those of you unfamiliar, Posthumous Z started 2 years ago, one man's attempt to try and create awesomeness on the same scale that Fantasy Flight might dedicate 30 guys to. A team based zombie game, that's fun, strategic, easy to learn, and colorful to the max. With nearly 300 cards, each with its own card art and flavor, and enough parts to play a desperate 1 on 1 to a full on apocalypse of 5 on 5.

The production is taking place in Canada, and they're doing everything but the rulebook and some player aids. The current estimate for completion is a month. So sometime mid March it should be in my hands to pack in the rulebook, aids, dice etc- and be shipping off to all those lovely people who pre-ordered.

On that note, pre-orders will remain open until the end of February. So you've got a little less than 2 weeks to snag this game at $65 and get your name in the rulebook, and even grab a commemorative Zombie Dinosaur piece, hand made with love, care, and a dangerous 11 stage process that threatens to remove fingers on 3 of them. So pre-order from This Is a Cow here while you still can.

Starting March 1st the pre-orders will close and the game will increase into the far less self-starving price of $75.

When March 1st hits, I'll make sure that the latest rulebook is online so any pre-order folk can make sure his or her name is properly spelled and displayed. Additionally, since some have had pre-orders longer than others, all individuals with a pre-order will be contacted to make sure the game is going to be sent to the right place.

The game will include nearly 130 playing pieces, a hundred some tokens of various size, tiles for a modular playing board, plus full color player aids and rulebook to make learning and playing the game both straightforward and engaging. Everything is die cut- and the box is durable, full color, and includes graphics on both front and back.
