Out of desperation, citizens during a zombie apocalypse often need to resort to one incredibly effective (yet dangerous) tactic: meat shields. Introduced in Season 6, the Watchmen is a job any citizen can choose to take up (in addition to their profession), be it Small hero.gifSmall hero.gifHero Hero or Item basic suit.gifItem basic suit.gifResident Resident.

Use

They will stay on guard as a watchman for Small fight.gifSmall fight.gifThe Attack The Attack that night, and then are relieved of their watchman duty.
    • The list of Watchmen is cleared daily, after the attack. There are no limits to signing up.
  • Watchmen will attempt to block off any zombies that get past the town's defense from the remaining citizens.
  • All watchmen begin with a base 95% chance of survival (indicated by the Small human.gif icon) and block off 10 zombies (indicated by the Small zombie.gif icon). They also always risk a 10% chance of Status wound.gifStatus wound.gifWounded Injury, and another 10% chance of Status terror.gifStatus terror.gifTerrorised Terrorisation.
