So how does this work?

An explanation on how this works would be greatly appreciated.

Your population will be divided into three classifications - survivors, infected and dead. You will get a special issue about the apocalypse giving you the option to either kill the infected to stop it spreading, export the infected off to other nations, cure the infected or join them and infect other nations. You can only kill/cure/infect other nations, though, so you have to have each other's backs to survive. I do think choosing an option has an effect on your own nation, but it's only minimal - I'm not sure if this is correct, however.

Will it work like the daily issues?

Will it work like the daily issues?

No. A new page will appear with the issue. Once you choose an option, it will be enacted within a small period of time, if I recall correctly. You can also change it whenever you please. At least that's how it worked last time; it might be a bit different this time. You still get all your average issues during the apocalypse.

Will it work like the daily issues?

Not exactly; the options to cure, kill, or infect will be on a seperate page on the far right labled "Zombie Control". There will also be extra charts and such on each nation and region page.
