I don't think it's set to be real hard. The strategy I take is to simply overwhelm them with personnel (the Colin Powell approach). I set them a few squares away to draw them in... Then they stretch their "supply lines" by moving next to my men and have little power to attack. I then surround and
destroy them.  ;-)

I've tried that, but it's really depressing to see three guys with weapons gang up on one zombie, and you end up with one guy with no weapons and 2 zombies. Bums me out. I think my luck is just bad. I've only played a few games so far, but it seems that even when I make a good bit of progress, there is always one or two zombies that I just can't kill no matter how many poor saps I throw at them.

However, I never thought about sneaking up on them like Joe suggested, so I'll try that next time. I would imagine that the fancier 3d graphics would make that strategy more readily apparent. I tend not to notice that little dot very often.
