On the road

The road holds many dangers and rewards as you travel across the country. Some of the things you will encounter are:

Events

 * Roadside Events - These sometimes put the player in a “choose your own adventure”-style situation or a moral dilemma.
 * Zombies - Either a scenario where the group has to pass through a large crowd of zombies or one where the player has to protect the car from an attack.
 * Bandits - Either a motorcycle gang will pursue the party or a party member may be held hostage.
 * Tombstones - May result in either a brief zombie attack or a chance to find additional supplies.
 * Finding/Losing Supplies
 * Fog or Low Visibility - Results in the station wagon traveling slower.
 * Health Issues - (e.g., Injuries, disease, recovery, zombie bites.)
 * Car Issues - If a player doesn’t have fuel or a certain part, the car will be stuck until the player can trade for the needed item(s).
 * Trivial/Humorous - Moments that don’t affect the player, but are added for the sake of parody. (e.g., “Check engine light is on;” “Someone farted.”)
 * General Party Damage - It's a sad fact. Traveling cross country is not conducive to good health. Your party's health will slowly degenerate overtime as you travel on the road.
 * Friendly Help - It's a sad fact. Sometimes your friends can be real idiots. As you travel, they'll get bored and get into mischief. Ruined fuel when one of your friends "dicks around" with it. Broken limbs. Other bad things that happen. It's just something you'll have to grit your teeth against. Or you could kill the offending party member at the next stop. Unfortunately, it's a long drive, which means everyone will have the chance to blow it at least once.
