DRILLER BLITZERS To eliminate: Damage 2

Experience provided: 1 point
Special rules:
• Driller Blitzers use the Driller Xenos rules, explained in
“The thing took ninety-eight rounds before going down. Zombicide: Dark Side.
Please, tell me it was a one-off mutation!” • Driller Blitzers share the same Targeting Priority level as Tanks.
• Driller Blitzers have 2 Actions every time they are activated
– Reese (in the same way as Hunters do). After all Xenos (including
Driller Blitzers) have gone through the Activation step and
resolved their first Action, Driller Blitzers go through the
Activation step again, using their second Action to attack a
Survivor in their Zone or Move if there is nobody to Attack.

COMPANIONS A Scientist:
• Is a Survivor. It also means they count as one Noise.
• Is eliminated upon receiving any Damage. The game is lost
if they are eliminated.
• Always stays together with their Leader. All special
rules and Move-related Skills also apply to the Scientist.
Scientists benefit from any Oxygen Tank their Leader may
be Equipped with.
• Does not have an Inventory.
• Does not have any Actions.

EXAMPLE 1: Miles spends 1 Action to rally Olive, the

Explorer Scientist standing in his Zone. He becomes Olive’s
Leader, gets her Reference card, and Olive’s base is put in
contact with his own. From now on, Miles benefits of the +1
