Turn 1: Bob is still hanging in there. As usual, he stepped out of the hotel this morning to see what's going on. A few zombies were scattered here and there, wandering aimlessly in the distance.
Turn 2: The zeds actually wander away from Bob and the motel. Perhaps they have heard about the wild-eyed crazy man living here and want no part of him. But...what's that sound? Thunder? No, it's a continuous roaring... Bob hasn't heard it in a while and like an image through a fog, he slowly starts to realize what it is: Motorcycles! Motorcycles? 'Who'd be crazy enough to ride motorcycles with these things roaming the streets?' Bob wonders aloud.
Indeed, motorcycles tear up the road, and though the drivers are Unaware, they pass their In Sight test, noticing Bob - perhaps because he's human and they haven't seen one for a few days. They roll up to him, surrounding him as he stands at the door of his motel room. Dazed and confused, Bob isn't sure if he is in danger, if they are rescuers, or if they are simply others passing through on their way trying to escape. He raises his hand and waves in greeting, confusion still clouding his face.
Fortunately for Bob, he passes 2d6 to their 1d6 on the Talk the Talk Table, and the Cooperation Table has them joining forces - under BOB!
Unfortunately, the zombies are attracted to the roar of the motorcycles, and though no new zeds appear, those already on the board turn and move towards the group gathered in front of the motel.
Fortunately, there are only five...four, after one walks straight into the swimming pool and sinks to the bottom...
Turns 4 and 5: The activation rolls are doubles, and everyone is frozen in place, though the motorcycle gang turns outward to face the threat of the zombies and prepares their weapons.
Turn 6: The zeds win the activation and close in, with one entering - and losing - melee with the gang member with a chainsaw. There are two more just feet away and closing, while on the other side of the group, the sole zombie is blasted by a gang member's shotgun, getting Out of the Fight. Bob takes a couple of steps to come around the end of the camper, takes two more steps then fires his shotgun at the remaining two zeds. He hits both and gets Out of the Fight on both, ending the skirmish. Despite the motorcycles, the chainsaw, and the shotgun blasts, no new zombies appear, the one in the pool can't find her way out, and quiet returns to the motel.
