The simple answer to Bruce Schlickbernd's problem with the game is to simply not give zombies extra activations when you run out of models.If that is the only thing from preventing you from enjoying the game, simply ommit it.
I've played it both ways, and it works both ways.
I know Soott is against it, as he appreciates the strategy involved in zombie numbers management, but not everyone does. Some people feel cheated, as I imagine Bruce's players did, when the zombies start to activate mulitple times and get overrun and it impares their enjoyment of the game. Is it not better to simply make the game slightly easier if it keeps the players interested ?
Now admittedly, I don't think the rule as written is a design flaw, and calling it so, beuuase you don't like it, is a bit hyperbole.
Play the game in the manner that allows you to enjoy it most, and don't have virtual pissing matches with people online over it.
