For rules and stats, are you using the Necromunda rulebook available here?
http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/article.jsp?catId=cat480009a&categoryId=1100011&section=&aId=5300010

Or is the Zombie Crawl modified in some way?

[ErykKroogar]

Any room left for more players?

Thanks,

Do particular weapons cost points or is it just filling hands with appropriate weapons that you have access too?

Yes, those are the rules I use and I do modify them for "special circumstances" that occur during the game.

Yes, there is always room for more.

If you want a special or heavy weapon, you have to use one point to buy the Specialist or Heavy skill.

Pro Tip: Bring a tape measure.

Pro Tip: Bring a tape measure.

... and dice.  D6's to be precise.   

[Benjamin]

So a player should bring a tape measure, dice, a statline, a mini and a desire to have fun. Anything else?

[Chase]

That seems like it.  Some of us will show up with only one of the above. 

[ErykKroogar]

Any recommendations from the old hands?  I was looking at heavy weapons, but in reading back through the thread I saw that someone ran out of ammo after 1 shot with a Stubber! 

I assume the smaller weapons have an easier ammo roll?
