From all corners of the world, they come. Leaving their graves for food, vengeance, or by the command of mysterious powers, the dead walk among the living. As they always have. Some you may know by their appearance, but others could be the person next to you. A few might be members of your family. Or even your pets.

Some will go down before your shotgun just like the brain-eaters back home. But others are harder to kill. Some can only find rest when they have completed their purpose, and some cannot die at all. Ever.

Across the world and down through the centuries, people have wondered:

How do you kill something that’s already dead?

In 2000, All Flesh Must Be Eaten was nominated for Best Roleplaying Game of 2000.

 

The rumors are true. As a promotional item for the very first printrun of AFMBE, Eden Studios had 2000 milk chocolate bars shipped with the first printrun. Due to some problems with distributors not wanting to carry the game, this rare item was handed out at conventions. Sometime in 2002, Eden will get some more of these tasty treats made up.

All roleplaying games have at their hearts the “What if . . ?” question. In All Flesh Must Be Eaten, the question is “What if you were faced with a world gone to Hell, where ravenous undead sought living prey?”

What if you had to fight for survival, sometimes against former friends and loved ones? Would you be curious to find out the cause of the horror?

Would you delve into the heart of the zombie-infested areas to discover the truth? here is a link to truth about Zombie virus https://www.popsci.com/science/article/2011-02/fyi-could-scientists-really-create-zombie-apocalypse-virus/

Would you brave death to end the threat? What if there were no cause, no solution?

Would it be better to simply flee for safety to ensure the survival of the race?

All Flesh Must Be Eaten is a game that combines elements of horror (there are walking dead in this world, and they feed on humans) with survival (characters have the rely on their skills and abilities to live through the night) and conflict (the characters may know the truth; what are they going to do about it?).

How about giving us some details on the game mechanics?

How do the skills work? What are the stats? Brief synopsis on combat?

Attributes are a pretty basic lot (Str, Dex, Con, Int, Per, Wil), and run between 1 and 6 for humans (2 is average). They can go much higher for non-humans, but that is rare. Skills run the same gambit, but have no upper limit. Again, you will not likely see anything over a 9 or 10, however, and those will be very rare. As an example, a 4 or 5 skill is someone with a great deal of competancy, attained after a great deal of study or practice.

The basic Simple Test in the Unisystem is Attribute doubled plus D10 (a Difficult Test is Attribute plus D10). The basic Task is Attribute plus skill plus D10. If you roll a 9 or better, you succeed. Otherwise, you fail. Obviously, things can get more complicated, but that’s the basics. A roll of 10 grants you a further positive roll; a roll of 1 requires a further negative roll (modified to curtail the degree of success or failure — these critical rolls do occur 20% of the time).

If you need to know degree of success, you compare the number you rolled with 9. Each two numbers over 9, you get one success (e.g., a 14 is 3 Success Levels). This is important in a number of circumstances indicated by the text.

Another variance occurs when two actors are pitted against each other. This calls for a Resisted Test. Each side rolls a Test or Task, and the higher wins (unless more than one roll is called for, in the Zombie Master’s discretion).

As for fighting, close combat is a Resisted Task between the attacker’s combat skill and the defender’s combat skill (if he has a weapon or Martial Arts), or defender’s Dodge skill (if he has none, it’s a Difficult Dexterity Test). Ranged combat is attacker’s ranged skill modified for range, lighting conditions, recoil (if autofire is used), etc. Defender’s only response there is to duck and cover — a Dodge and Dex Task, and he needs to beat the attacker’s roll (if it’s over 9). Problem there is that it uses all the defender’s actions.

Damage is expressed in Life Points, which are a function of Str and Con. Each weapon does a range of damage (e.g., 9mm pistol does D6 x 4), modified by bullet type. Armor protects with a range as well (e.g., basic Class I Kevlar prevents D6 + 7). If you want, you can dump all the dice rolling, and just use a set number that is provided.

The system can be used with cards or a non-random storyteller’s method, but dice are the default system.

Where were you?

When the hungry dead crawled from their grave-wombs, when the cities toppled and society collapsed, when the macabre roamed the streets hungry for flesh and blood-where were you?

And what did you do next?

Did you lie down to die faced with a tide of teeth and corruption? Or did you rage uselessly at fate? Or did you take the fights back to the mouth of hell itself? Rather than counting success by how many putrid corpses you take down, do you now view each new sunrise as a silent victory against the darkness?

If you’re a survivor, this book is for you.

One of the Living is a supplement for the All Flesh Must Be Eaten RPG. In it, you will find:

• New skills, qualities and drawbacks for those who survive, including some fresh metaphysics ideas and archetypes.
• Rules for scrounging and jerry-rigging in a post-apocalyptic world.
• A slew of new implements of survival.
• Suggestions for characters on how to use all the great new gear and abilities detailed.
• Guidelines for Zombie Masters for long-term Deadworld campaigning, including the psychological and technological effects of society’s collapse . . . oh, and a bunch of cool new zombie Aspects.
• Details on a tiny community of survivors holed up in an isolated area.
• Eight new Deadworlds set many years after The Rise.

They won’t stay dead!

The zombies cannot be stopped. From the pitch-black holds of pirate ships and the tunnels beneath the war-torn jungles of Vietnam, they rise up. And there’s no way to stop them, no corner of the world that’s safe from the invasion. Secret government labs, the trendy galleries of New York’s art scene, the drawing rooms of nineteenth century England all become the lair of the living dead in this inventive and chilling collection of horror and dark fantasy tales.

Under the guidance of editor James Lowder, The Book of More Flesh presents more than two dozen original stories, including works from several hot authors:

David Dvorkin, author of fifteen novels, including the best-selling Star Trek: The Next Generation title, The Captains’ Honor.

J. Robert King, author of several best-selling Ravenloft and Magic: The Gathering novels, as well as a critically acclaimed Arthurian trilogy (Mad Merlin, Lancelot du Lethe, and Le Morte d”Avalon) for Tor.

Stoker Award winner Tom Piccirilli, author of ten novels, including The Night Class, A Lower Deep, and Hexes.

Hugo Award and Stoker Award finalist Scott Edelman, whose work has appeared in Amazing Stories, Twilight Zone, and Asimov’s.

Hot new writer Scott Nicholson, whose recent debut novel, The Red Church, is garnering rave reviews and serious award consideration.

And several more authors whose stories regularly appear in Year’s Best collections and on the final ballots for major horror fiction awards, including Mark McLaughlin, Darrell Schweitzer, and Stoker Award winner Steve Eller.

Editor James Lowder previously helmed the successful anthologies Realms of Valor and Realms of Infamy, and is known to readers for his own best-selling dark fantasy novels Knight of the Black Rose and Prince of Lies.
