The North Pacific Zombie Survival Guide
What's happening?
As you may have noticed, some odd creatures have started making their appearance around residents of our peaceful region. They are not tourists. They are not aliens. They are not even new, technically speaking. They are our friends and family, who have been turned into zombies. That's right: there is a zombie pandemic!
That sounds serious, and I'm scared! What do I do?
Have no fear! We have been forewarned of this development and have prepared for it. We know there is a cure - or at least that we can all research one. And the government of The North Pacific will dedicate all its resources towards finding it. We need your help in this effort!
The very first thing you should do is start researching a cure. Here is how to do this:
Go to your nation's zombie controls.
Select Research cure.
Do so as soon as possible!
TNP’s path to no zombies!
Focus all nations in the region on researching the cure, as quickly as possible. The more nations that research a cure, the faster we can reach it.
While researching, you and others can start to cure your fellow nations. Focus on keeping the number of survivors above the number of zombies.
Once the region has completed research on the cure, the cure will automatically deploy throughout the region to cure the remaining zombies.
I also have these cure missiles. Whom do I shoot?
At your nation's zombie controls, you will see after a little while that you have cure missiles available. You can launch them at some other nation by going to that nation's page and selecting the "Cure Missile" button at the bottom.
You should use your missiles to try to cure other nations who are also researching a cure! However, you should also make sure not to target nations actively using their own cure missiles, as doing so prevents them from launching any cure missiles for three minutes.
For more information on how missiles work, check out our Missile FAQ. For priority target lists for your cure missiles, go to our Target Lists page.
I hate these zombies. Shouldn't I be killing them?
You should not select the option to exterminate the zombies. For one thing, doing so takes resources away from researching the cure, and therefore considerably delays when one will be found. Furthermore, zombies always increase at a much faster rate than you can exterminate them, so trying to kill them all is fighting a losing battle.
A select few trusted nations that have a track record of following directions are selected by the Surgeon General to help eliminate rouge nations. If you are not part of this group, DO NOT EXPORT ZOMBIES. Exporting zombies without instructions from the Surgeon General may lead to your nation being kicked out the region for the duration of the crisis.
Not to mention, these zombies are our friends, family, and other loved ones! Only by working together toward the cure can we save their lives. There is only one feasible option: Research the cure!
I went with extermination anyway, and now I'm getting these Tactical Zombie Elimination Squads. What do I do?
Change to cure! Switch your choice to “Research Cure” as soon as possible. Extermination is not helpful in our goal to cure the zombies.
I want to do more to help!
We are currently coordinating our response from our 
regional Discord channel, and there's always lots more to do. You are welcome to join us, and join the fun!
