Addon Idea - zombiecalypse

[shevegen]

With the Coronoavirus currently annoying lots of people, I thought ... how about a campaign, an add-on that integrates
SOME ideas from that? Note: I do not mean a 1:1 copy, but things that are found elsewhere.

Example:

"infect" -> infect a unit with a weapon, then when it dies, spawn an undead or something similar. Wacraft3 had this too for
some unit types e. g. some level 6 hero.

Zombies are always fun, though a bit crappy. Anyone wants to come up with some more ideas for a zombiecalypse?

I don't fully expect this to become an add-on campaign per se, but perhaps other people can get useful ideas for
their own campaign.

There are already a few add-ons that have an "infect" idea, as an after-life effect. E. g. some units that die, then
respawn an undead after the first death.

Infect exists in LotI as a weapon special. The attack poisons the enemy and when it dies, because of the poison or not, it becomes an undead.

According to LotI Ablities' page:

Infect: The target of this weapon specials becomes poisoned in a special way: if it dies from this toxin or is killed while affected by it, it becomes a Walking Corpse.

Greater Infect: The target of this weapon specials becomes poisoned in a special way: if it dies from this toxin or is killed while affected by it, it becomes a Soulless.
