RULES AND QUESTS

SETUP
Choose a Quest.
1.
Place the tiles.
2.
Place the doors, Objectives, and all tokens as indicated
3. by the Quest.
Each player gathers 1 to 6 Survivors for him to play. Players
sit around the table in any order they choose. As they
4.
cooperate against the game, all players form a single team.
Players take one Dashboard for each of their Survivors,
5. placing the Survivor’s ID Card on it. They take a colored
plastic base and attach it to the Survivor’s miniature to help
identify it. They also take the 5 plastic trackers in the same
color.
Put aside all Equipment cards with the “Starting
6. Equipment” keyword: a Hammer, a Mana Blast, a
Short Bow and three Short Swords. These cards are identified
by a grey back.
A Zombicide: Black Plague game usually features 6
Survivors, distributed in any way you see fit among
players. We recommend new players to join the
game with a single Survivor, to get a quick grasp
on the game mechanics. A veteran player can easily
control a whole team of 6 Survivors and clean
Zombie pests on his own!
These are your team’s Starting Equipment cards.
Also set aside the Equipment cards with the “Vault” keyword:
Inferno and Orcish Crossbow. These cards are identified by a
blue back.

BLACK PLAGUE - RULES
The potent Vault cards are usually hidden
on the board as treasures.
Deal the Starting Equipment as you see fit amongst
7. Survivors. Zombicide: Black Plague is a cooperative game,
so decide as a team. Each Survivor starts the game with at
least one card. If a Survivor’s starting Skill lists any starting
weapons, he receives those cards now, independent of the
starting Equipment you’ve just distributed.
