The year i 2017 and the 2nd Korean war is quickly coming to a close. The brutal and bloody fighting is now isolated to a few corners of the northern Korean Peninsula. In a last ditch effort to swing the war to his favor Kim Jong Un orders gives the order to fire all remaining missiles at the NATO troops and major western population area's. The Warheads are carrying a chemical payload known as "Black Wind", a deadly virus that has been in development for over 3 decade's in secret by the North Korean Government. The virus lays dormant in the system for up to 3 months after which it takes hold and causes fever, severe headache's and vomiting followed by fits of extreme aggression and a complete loss of control of all bodily function. Not much else is known about the virus and its effects at this time other than that the victims will slowly but surely be reduced to primitive predatory behavior and will seek to feed primarily on non-infected humans and that the virus is highly contagious.
Following the return of the NATO soldiers to their respective home countries the infection has just begun to take hold and spread. Local military and national guard forces are now in the process of rounding up healthy survivors to safeguard from the hordes of infected monsters that hunger for their flesh.

This is the premise for the post apocalyptic zombie survival game I want to run. Not much of a back story but hey, there's zombies involved so who cares.
I will be running it on the Outbreak Undead system but with a few minor changes. If you are looking for a realistic zombie survival rpg where starvation, dehydration or death from common diseases are just as real a threat as a horde of zombies or a gang of bandits this may very well be for you!
The game will start at the beginning of the outbreak and go on until people lose interest. The game will most likely be set in either Sweden (my home country) as it is easy for me to figure out how the climate works etc or in one of the northern states of the US as it has a similar climate. I will be running it completely free roam which means using Google maps, using real towns and house plans etc.
Players can join in/create new characters on death to rejoin the game at any session as meeting/losing survivors is something that is bound to happen in this type of game.
If you would be interested in playing this let me know in a post below or through private messages. We will be playing through Skype or roll20 (if it decides to work). Session time is not set in stone as I want to make it available to as many players as possible so please let me know when it is you are available (please remember to specify your time zone).
Looking forward to hearing from you all!
