What happened in Vietnam when zombies came back in '68?
« on: February 02, 2012, 11:56:24 AM »
MTT is working with Meatgrinder Studios to put together a two day adventure based upon the comic series '68 published by Image Comics.




About '68 the Comic
Zombies leapt into our social conscience with the release of George Romero’s Night of the Living Dead in 1968.  The creators of ’68 asked the question, “If the dead were rising in Pennsylvania, what would be happening to US military troops in Vietnam?”

About '68: FIREBASE ARIES the Experience
The answer can be found on the pages of ’68 as we follow two platoons Marines in the Central Highlands of Vietnam.  Join the adventure in ’68: FIREBASE ARIES and experience a military themed zombie adventure like no other.  Participants will serve as US Marines protecting their firebase and hunting the Viet Cong.  Players will experience combat patrols into Viet Cong controlled areas and search villages for weapons and explosives.  When night falls, the zombie assault to overrun the wire begins.

Visit www.68zombie.com for more information about the story.

If you have read the series post up your ideas about what you might like to experience from the comic.

More information about the adventure to come.
