Blue Undead
 

Received my hardback a couple of days ago and while I had the PDF I just never noticed the Blue Undead are absent from both. Anybody have an idea why?

That question was asked on the Facebook page. I don't remember the answer.

Personally, I want them in the game. I think they are cool.

There an interesting encounter and something designed to be hard to deal with. Maybe they will see a release in a supplement?

More than that........... The Blue Undead feature in "Liberation at Riverton" and "Ruins of Chicago". To not have them in changes the story in either.

Maybe there planning on rewriting the original scenario's updated for the 4th edition?

I, for one, do not care for the Blue Undead. Way too powerful, IMHO.

There are enough other things to kill you in Day + 150 years.

Yes it might mean a rethink of Liberation of Riverton. Not TOO big an issue. The Imps are NASTY enough. Give them some decent military leadership, the scenario can get UGLY....In a hurry.

Let's see....What else can kill you....

KFS
Krell
Mutated diseases
Slavers
Etc., Etc., Etc.....

The Blue Undead keeps the Team or other successors from exploiting the surviving munition bunkers in Camp Grayling.

Leave the Blue Undead in there and kill of curious scouts from Maxwell's Militia or the Warlord of Kankanee.

Actually I just like having Blue Undead as a perfect area denial plothook. A roaming Blue Undead haunting a arms cache or near a Morrow Objective is a good way to get a team to think outside the box. Can't tell you how many manholes I've covered with a tarp to get a blue undead to fall through while chasing my team.

This might be a bit off-topic, and I too like the Blue Undead, but what do you think of the Glowing Ones from the Fallout universe?

now i'm imagining what would happen if you dropped a piano on one.

Well they still smoosh like a person, only difference is the radioactive remains. Still going to need that hazmat suit for cleanup!

Well, it certainly won't do the piano any good! :p
