An Elite Anti-Zombie Unit

 

The previous posts have shown that human soldiers are at a great disadvantage against trench zombies.  This poses a problem if you want humanity to have any hope.  Therefore, in keeping with the general story line of most zombie movies, I have invented a new type of human soldier unit. This is the Survivors unit. 

When the undead rose in the trenches, most of the living soldiers in the trenches were killed.  However, a few survived.  These soldiers were unusually quick, effective in H2H combat, and skilled marksmen who instinctively aimed for the head. They are depicted in my human army as kneeling marksmen who are still covered with trench mud.  Based three to a unit.  They get D6+2 in both shooting and H2H.  They move twice as fast as regular infantry and can run in reverse with no hesitation.  If any unit can survive, it will be the Survivors Unit.

Readers (if there are any) will note that the WWI zombie wars do not require expensive figures.  Paint-conversions of Airfix 1/72 figures work just fine for me.
