How to Contain the Zombie Apocalypse in Rebel Inc.

In the Zombie Apocalypse custom scenario, prioritize containing infected provinces and protecting your Headquarters. The suggested approach is to deploy Coalition soldiers early, limit the outbreak’s spread where possible, and preserve a secure area rather than trying to defend every province.

Respond to infected provinces early

The scenario guidance describes infection spreading into adjacent provinces. Move soldiers toward infected areas before waiting for complete intel, and use them to limit the outbreak’s expansion. Coalition soldiers are the recommended early deployment.

Focus on the infected cluster and the routes toward your Headquarters. The goal is to keep the threat from reaching your core safe area; the guidance does not establish a specific unit count, deployment order, or guaranteed containment point.

Protect a smaller safe area

As infection spreads, regional stability may fall. Keep your Headquarters and nearby uninfected provinces secure where possible, since losing more territory can also reduce your resources and reputation.

If an outer province is difficult to hold, the suggested trade-off is to pull back rather than weaken a more important defensive line. If a battle looks unwinnable, regroup and establish another line instead of committing your entire force to it.

Spend carefully as the scenario continues

The draft recommends prioritizing military spending early over civilian initiatives, then keeping later purchases focused on suppressing the threat. It also suggests mobility upgrades and air support, but does not specify which upgrades to buy first or the conditions in which air support is most useful.

Coalition soldiers eventually expire, according to the supplied scenario guidance. Account for that limit when committing troops, and avoid leaving your defense dependent on a force that cannot remain in place indefinitely.
