Proposal: Fences for the Dead?

Reached a quorum 10-0.—Yoda
7 trivials, so no bonus

Adminned at 21 Jun 2011 19:46:15 UTC

In the Subrule “Woodworking Tools” of the Subrule “Constructions” of the Rule “A Bit of Renovating”, change the sentence

Fences increase the defence of any object on the same square as them by 4.

to

Fences increase the defence of any object other than a Zombie on the same square as them by 4.

As Zombies can stand on the same square as Crops and such, it would seem contraproductive for them to benefit from fences. I know that Zombies as of now do not have a defense value, but I do want to have this clear.

Zombies don’t have a defense value.  Does this even do anything?

@mideg: I feel like you’re adding a slight complication to a rule for no good reason.  I doubt Zombie will have defense in the future.

against Trivial.

One could possibly argue that when one Zombie attacks another, the attacked Zombie get’s a defense for the fight. I quote Rule “The Dead”:

“Attack an object (shed, zombie or Crop): If the result of DICEX (where X is the Zombie’s Attack) is major or equal than the object’s Defence (or 1 if the object has no Defense), the Object will get destroyed. The Zombie shall then suffer the object’s Pheromone, if any.”

I wanted to make it clear that even if a Zombie behind a fence is attacked by another Zombie, the fence will not raise this “temporary” Defense value.

It does not hurt, I guess. :-)

for EoV just because it’s a little bit trivial.
