Zombie Apocalypse - A new take on an old game. by AndyGadget

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This is an update of a very old two player game known variously as Hare and Hounds, the French Military Game and several other names.
There's more information on the pieces at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:229413 and on the game itself at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hare_and_Hounds_(board_game)
I first came across hare and hounds when reading through Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games column in an old copy of Scientific American. If you play it you'll find there's a lot more strategy to it than first meets the eye. Try an on-line version here : http://www.mazeworks.com/hounds/
I've also done a full write-up on Instructables : http://www.instructables.com/id/Zombie-Apocalypse-A-Simple-Board-Game/
