Fireteam Zero – A game of tactics, horror, and cool minis!. Emergent Games finanziert über Kickstarter ein eigenständiges und kooperatives Horror-Brettspiel von Mike Langlois, Christian Leonhard und Gary Simpson. Bis zum 1. April 2014 benötigt das Unternehmen mindestens $50,000. Gegenwärtig wurden dem Crowdfunding-Projekt beinahe $110,000 zugesichert.
Interessanterweise treten bis zu vier Spieler weder gegen den Cthulhu-Mythos noch gegen Zombies an. Ein andere Schrecken treibt sein Unwesen.
Neben dem Grundspiel beinhaltet das Angebot mindestens zwei Erweiterungen – wohlgemerkt ohne Stretch Goals. Die Auslieferung soll im Oktober 2014 erfolgen.

Ich wollte mich ein wenig von Kickstarter fernhalten und dann kommt gestern die Jubiläumsausgabe von Mage: The Ascension und nun Fireteam Zero. Neben dem eigenständigen Horror-Setting weckt die in der FTZ Setup and Gameplay Overview vorgestellte Spielmechanik mein Interesse. Fireteam Zero hat etwas von einem „Rollenbrettspiel“ mit Zombicide-Anleihen.
