The year is Twenty-Ninety-Three. Drifting in space, the last great Arc of humanity is under siege. Following the rekindling of the Zombie Virus on Earth, the government sent up a craft which would head to new horizons, searching for a new home. That was half a century ago. Somehow, a new strain of the zombie plague was released onto the ship, and humanity is in grave danger. Shall humanity endure? Or shall they be stomped out?
Factions and Win Conditions Spoiler:Survivors- Eliminate the zombie threat
Ultimate Victory: Eliminate the zombie threat + destroy the Source
Zombies - Pacify or otherwise overrun the remaining survivors
Ultimate Victory: Eliminate the survivors without taking casualties
Game Specific Mechanics Spoiler:
All players will receive a Generic Role. Each Generic Role has special attributes and is able to utilize Generic Abilities.

48 hour days, 24 hour nights.
All players' locations, statuses, and Generic Roles will be shown publicly. Most abilities will be included in Day Posts.
This game will feature "events". Seemingly random occurrences which are triggered through various means throughout the game. Any events in effect will be listed in the OP and stated at the start of whatever day it is applicable to.

Defending is ineffective against specific items without their respective counter Search: Players may search their current location for items Items: If a player has an Item, they may activate its ability

Area System Spoiler:
1. Bridge [Engineers may access the ship's controls from this location, locking and unlocking doors as well as diverting oxygen] Capacity: 5 2. Armory [Weapons can be found here for Soldiers to use however Items cannot be used in this room because of the security mechanisms] Capacity: 15 3. Cargo A [Special tech can be found here, however because of the darkness, actions are hidden from sight] Capacity: 12 4. Cargo B [Information on who the Zombies might be is found here, however there is a radiation leak which may render people here unable to move] Capacity: 12 5. Mess Hall [The room is well lit, which means any attacks by Zombies here will be made known] Capacity: 10 6. Panic Room [Anyone in this room cannot be lynched while they are in here. You may only stay in this room one day at a time] Capacity: 1 7. Medical Lab [Doctors can use this room to study Zombie samples. Doctors may prevent Stun and Demobilize status effects while in this room as an Action] Capacity: 5 8. Crew Lounge [This room has no special qualities, except it is really big and all players start here] Capacity: 30 9. Science Lab [Scientists can use this room to study Zombie samples. Scientist may research here.] Capacity: 5
FAQ If a room's capacity is orange, it means the room is near full capacity and will use oxygen at a 10% increased rate. If a player is attacked five or more times, instead of being inflicted with a status effect, they are killed. A Soldier's attack or an attack with a weapon counts for double. Zombies are the mafia. Zombies have a generic role as well as a unique zombie specific role.

why are the numbers 26-30 shown in orange while 1-25 in green??????
yes, I don't think we'll lose anything by making our actions known. Perhaps we should make some sort of plan so that we can act in an organized manner?

Agreed. Although I think we should keep moving plans somewhat hidden for now.

and if zombies can really survive without air (even if just for a while) I think it would be completely gamebreaking if they had an engineer. so imo if it's true most probably there can't be a zombie engineer. (if we can prove sth like that somewhere in game, it would make me and kosmo inno)

Attention all passengers. Due to breaches in the hull's integrity, all doors leading to the Armory have been locked. These doors may only be released by accessing the Captain's security override card.
ACCORDING TO UNCONFIRMED REPORTS, THE CAPTAIN WAS KILLED BY ZOMBIES IN ONE OF THE CARGO AREAS LAST NIGHT. MAYBE THE KEY-CARD IS LOST THERE?
