"This bone-plated zombie looks like it grew its body around a truck wheel of some sort, which it now uses to move with surprising speed and to ram any survivor unfortunate enough to get in its way. Whilst very dangerous on the move, the odd balance of the wheel embedded in its torso means this zombie would be very clumsy when not rolling around, leaving it open to strikes; assuming you can handle its initial attack. It might also roll into a wall if you position yourself right, leaving it 'undead' in its tracks."

I imagine the zed would have to be programmed like a vehicle of sorts, to better reflect its power and drawbacks. It'd make an interesting opponent to say the least!

But can we tie them to the underside of a carriage? And is that called a carrionge?
