Well... I'm Jemma the medic and after realising how annoyingly difficult it is just to <b>hit</b> a zombie I'm somewhat unimpressed but I've got 5xp so far from punching a zombie in the face repeatedly then making a run for it :p
zombies don't have the easiest times of hitting regular humans either. I suggest you use what other skills you have to get exp. Zombies just have to hit people...
As the firemen left the inferno, the woman in Snidely's arms regained consciousness. She strained to open her eyes. "It's okay, ma'am. We got you out in time, but you breathed in a lot of smoke. You're gonna be okay." But the woman shook her head, feebly. "My baby." She paused to cough. "My baby's still in there." Snidely's eyes widened with shock; an innocent child, still inside that hell? Snidely knew it was stupid to go back; the child couldn't still be alive, and he would risk his own life. But he knew he couldn't live with himself if he stood by and did nothing. "Crazy 'Woman-Killer' Jim, take care of this lady for me. I'm going back in." "Neeheeheeeeheeheeheeeeeeheeheeheeeheeheeehee", replied Crazy 'Woman-Killer' Jim, drawing his special killing knife.
Snidely dashed back into the building, through a nightmarish realm of thick, oily smoke and crimson flames, until he got to the flat where they found the mother. The door was stuck fast, though. "It's a good thing I brought my fire axe." thought Snidely. "And that training will no doubt help, too. Yes, the fire axe is my friend. Good ol' Axel. I even named you, my precious fire axe, <i>that</i> is how highly I regard you." Snidely swung the fire axe once, twice, thrice; but to no avail. Every time, he missed the door. Then the fourth time, success! He took 3HP off the door! But it still had 7HP left. With no Action Points remaining, there was nothing Snidely could do. He could only stand there and succumb to suffocation due to the deadly smoke.
_____ Either I'm the worst fireman in the world, or these zombies are freakin' <i>ninjas</i>. It's just not possible to have training in wielding an axe and miss a <i>zombie</i> so often.
My pathetic character managed to cull a zombie after ~12AP of frantic combat*, then he does what anyone would do in a zombie crisis; head for the nearest school (!). So far, I have only found spray cans. What did they teach at Custard Lane School, anyway? Vandalism? What a monumental waste of tax dollars.

yah, if you want to make a decent human I suggest making a sci char, you get 4 xp per DNA extraction.
I got level 2, bought the second level of NecroTech skills (alowes me to use 'basic NecroTech equip'). I have spent the last day simply searching the NecroTech building, and so far I have found: DNA Extractors (I don't think they wear out, so it dosn't matter) Books Newspapers Revivification Syrenge (it is labeld as "on") And a GPS (woot for map cords!)
One of my zombies grabed the all flesh must be eaten upgrade (don't remember real name) so 4 hp per bite (up till 50) my other now has a %30 chance to bite...

My human has scored 2 zombie kills, no 100 exp yet though. My zombie has killed two humans, and gotten the accuracy upgrade for bite. 30% chance to do 4 damage, and after I got that I've almost killed another person.
The spray cans are a nice addition. It's only a matter of time before someone sprays dirty limmericks around the city, though...

I'm working on a map with one character ...
Here's what I've got so far. I strongly encourage others to add what they can to it. The idea is for each suburb's name should be put it in the top left corner, in the same square as the top left building.

So far I've proved pretty adept at avoiding zombies but I'm sure when I wake up tomorrow I'll find myself in hot water.
