Inside the box was my copy of Zombicide. I backed this game up in the kickstarter for the abomination level. This is a game that didn't come cheap. First the abomination level + shipment to Finland took 125usd, and after that my copy ended up on the customs table and they made me pay ~24 euros taxes as extra.
Well, here's hoping the game shines and atleast it has a lot of stuff in it:
Zombicide basegame:
Heroes:
Zombies sculpts:
Abomination extras:
More Zombies! (Basegame comes with two sheets of zombies)
Extra "Mr Spiky" (basegame comes with one abomination)
Extra Heroes:
More dice. The white ones glow in the dark (uuuuuu spooky)
Size comparison:
I took some pictures with the miniatures next to a "standard sized" space marine. Now bare in mind though that the marine is in terminator-armor, which makes it a bit more bulky. The abomination is about the same size as this guy:
(This guy would probably make the game a bit one-sided though)
Thoughts:
All in all, game certainly has a bunch of nice stuff in there. Plastic they used for the miniatures is hard and the sculpts are done nicely. Miniatures are a bit smaller though than I inially thought.
Gameboards are printed on a very thick and durable cardstock, and they have some cool artwork on them. Same high quality applies to the small cards and the dices as well. Components-wise, I have zero complaints.
As far as the actual gameplay goes, I just got this so I haven't had a chance to play yet. I have read some promising reviews though. Should be fun, and probably fits those gamenights with a few beers thrown in the mix. :)
Atleast the cat got some enjoyment out of it allready:
