Page 155: Creating factions

In the text (last sentence) it says you should draw a clock next to the factions entry on the challenge sheet. But there is already a clock on that sheet.

The same goes with drawing clocks on the sheet regarding rumors.

Page 156: Walker Herds.

After all reading it is a bit confusing, but isn’t swarm the name for it in this game?

See page 80, it's the term for swarms of size 4-6.

Yes, it mentions this is the term in the TV series on page 80 (boxed text) for size 4-6, but in the rules text (e.g. page 79) it says: ”A group of walkers, typically five or more, is referred to as a swarm. The size of a swarm is its Swarm Size.” And the table below has ”swarm size”. But these terms apply for the game as well?

This is not that important, though!

[EDIT: I'm discussing, which is not what we're supposed to do, sorry! Probably best to discuss in a new forum post]

The term "herd" is used on p108 as well as in fluff passages throughout the game, so yes, I'd say this term from the series is used in the game to refer to swarms of size 4-6.

Got it!
But it might be good here as well because it is feedback. E.g. on page 128 (key sectors on the map box) and the map, it is Swarm 1: swarm size 4, Swarm 3: swarm size 5 etc. But in the solo rules it is about discovering herds on page 156.

Only wanted to mention and now I’ll drop it. :)

Pages 158–160: tables

The tables for Solo Combat don’t end the entries with periods (.). The tables for Soloing the Swarm have periods (.).

P. 153 Survivors Creation
"Use one of the existing NPC Survivor groups on page XX, or create five new ones..."
This sounds a bit odd, either use one old or five new.
Maybe it should be something like:
"Use one of the existing NPC Survivor groups on page XX, or create a new Survivor group by making five new NPCs..."

P. 157 NPC Runs
"If the NPCs return with any loot..."
What are the odds of them finding something or is this told already somewhere, where?
