The year is 1941. The world is at war, the Axis powers are advancing, the Allies are desperately organizing their defenses—and then zombies show up.
Axis & Allies & Zombies takes the classic strategy gameplay of Axis & Allies and adds an entirely new threat to the battlefield. Players still command the major powers of World War II, build armies, capture territory, and battle enemy nations, but every conflict now has the potential to create more undead.
With conventional enemies on one front and flesh-eating hordes on another, commanders must rethink familiar strategies. Do you invest in conventional tanks, or is it finally time for a chainsaw tank?
This standalone alternate-history edition includes 215 plastic miniatures, including 30 zombie figures, custom Zombie Dice, Zombie Cards, and everything needed to fight a very different version of the Second World War.

At first, the war unfolds much as expected.
The Axis war machine is pushing across the globe while the Allied powers attempt to stop its advance.
Then the dead begin getting back up.
Every battlefield casualty potentially makes the zombie problem worse, creating an additional threat that doesn't care which side of the war you're fighting for.
Players must now balance two objectives:
Defeat the opposing powers and survive the zombie outbreak.
Players take command of one of the five major powers involved in the global conflict.
Each nation has its own forces, starting positions, territories, and strategic priorities, but the arrival of the undead creates a problem shared by everyone.
Traditional Axis & Allies strategies still matter, including:
Capturing territory
Building military units
Protecting production
Coordinating offensives
Managing resources
Controlling strategically important regions
The difference is that battles can now leave behind something considerably worse than a defeated enemy army.
Zombies introduce an unpredictable third force into the war.
As battles create casualties, the undead population can grow, potentially turning heavily contested territories into increasingly dangerous locations.
Commanders must decide when to concentrate on their human opponents and when the zombie threat has become too serious to ignore.
This creates situations where even a successful battle can have unexpected consequences.
Fortunately, the world's military engineers aren't completely helpless.
Axis & Allies & Zombies introduces appropriately over-the-top ways of dealing with the undead, including the memorable Chainsaw Tank.
The result maintains the strategic foundation of Axis & Allies while adding a deliberately pulpy alternate-history theme.
