Design a scenario for Zombies!!! and/or expansions in which the game will last one hour or less. Rules may be modified including the board being partially or totally preset. Here's the twist - There must be a theme/plot to the scenario. An example might be: Skateboarders vs Zombies - Everyone starts in the sporting goods store with a Skateboard (don't need to have a card in front of them but always considered to have a skateboard). As a group, they must get to the Helipad in less than an hour, before the helicopter takes off. Entries are due February 29th 11:59 pm eastern time. All scenarios are considered property of Twilight Creations with credit given to the creator. One entry per person.
