   Blood Plague is a deadly disease in State of Decay 2, a blood-borne infection that turns people into Plague Zombies. Blood Plague is highly contagious, a mutated strain of the original pathogen, primarily spread by Plague Zombies and Plague Hearts. Once infected, survivors only have a few hours to get checked into an infirmary to prevent themselves from turning. A blood plague cure is required to fully cure the survivor. Communities without medical infrastructure watch their people turn.

   Plague hearts are pulsing organic masses that spawn inside buildings, coating walls with crimson tendrils. They spawn plague zombies endlessly until destroyed. Killing one is loud, dangerous work; the heart screams when damaged, calling every nearby zed. It takes explosives, fire, or sustained heavy weapons fire. When a heart dies, it bursts, releasing a final toxic cloud. Each heart destroyed weakens the plague's hold on the region. Clear them all and the blood plague ends. Leave them and the map slowly chokes. Destroying a Plague Heart kills nearby Plague Zombies.

3. #3Cascade Hills

   Keys: cascade hills

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 90 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Cascade Hills is Pacific Northwest woodland: dense evergreen forests, winding creeks, and rolling hills shrouded in mist. The terrain is vertical, with roads cutting switchbacks through steep grades. A small rural town anchors the region, its main street lined with brick storefronts now dark and looted. Logging roads and hiking trails thread through the backcountry, often blocked by fallen trees or abandoned vehicles. The constant drizzle and overcast sky keep visibility low. Sound carries strangely in the hills; a gunshot echoes for miles. Key landmarks include a summer camp, hydroelectric dam, lumber mill, and scattered farmsteads. The forest provides good foraging but conceals threats until they're close. Bases range from a starter house to a fortified container fort near the dam.

4. #4Drucker County

   Keys: drucker

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 90 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Drucker County is flat Midwestern plains: endless fields of dead crops, grain silos, and long straight roads that let you see trouble coming from a mile out. The openness is deceptive; there's no cover when things go wrong. A small county seat provides the only urban density, its strip malls and fast food joints now picked clean. The rest is farmland punctuated by isolated homesteads, a truck stop, and agricultural facilities. Wind turbines stand motionless on the horizon. Summer heat bakes the cracked asphalt; dust devils spin across fallow fields. The terrain favors vehicles but fuel is scarce. Lots of space to breathe, nowhere to hide. Key bases include a baseball field complex, a strip mall, and a sprawling farm compound.

5. #5Meagher Valley

   Keys: meagher

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 90 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Meagher Valley is rural heartland: a broad river valley ringed by low hills, mixing farmland with light woodland. More temperate than Drucker, greener than Cascade. A small downtown clusters near a bridge crossing, surrounded by auto shops, diners, and a courthouse. The valley floor is relatively flat and navigable, but the surrounding hills create chokepoints on the main roads. Orchards and vineyards gone wild, a fairground with rusting rides, a quarry flooded into a makeshift lake. The river bisects the map and limits crossing points. Moderate sightlines; you can usually see zeds coming but terrain funnels movement. Bases include a church, a brewery, and a fortified camp on high ground.

6. #6Providence Ridge

   Keys: Providence Ridge

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 90 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Providence Ridge is logging country: dense conifer forest climbing into genuine mountains, with a sawmill town that was dying before the apocalypse finished it. Steep terrain and narrow roads make navigation slow; vehicles struggle on the grades and tight switchbacks. The town center has a rustic main street vibe, flanked by a fire station, ranger offices, and blue-collar businesses. Outside town, logging camps and ranger cabins dot the mountainside. A cable car system connects upper and lower elevations. Fog rolls through the valleys; visibility shifts hour to hour. The verticality matters tactically; high ground is defensible but isolated. Key bases include a lumber mill, fire station, and a fortified cabin compound. The forest is thick enough that zombies materialize from treelines without warning.

7. #7Trumbull Valley

   Keys: trumbull vally

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 90 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Trumbull Valley is where it started: the original outbreak zone, returned to years later. Small-town America in the foothills, a mix of farmland, light forest, and a proper downtown with a church steeple visible for miles. The landscape carries scars from the first collapse; burned-out buildings, old military checkpoints, vehicles rusted in place for years rather than months. Survivors who knew this place before speak of it with grief. The Wilkersons, the Savinis, the courthouse siege; ghosts haunt every street name. A central lake and river system provide water but attract zed concentrations. The terrain is moderate, neither as flat as Drucker nor as vertical as Providence. Familiar landmarks include the Alamo church, the Savini residence, and the fairgrounds. This map carries weight; it's a homecoming to a grave.

8. #8Feral

   Keys: feral, ferals

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 95 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Ferals are fast. Faster than anything living has a right to be. They run on all fours, low to the ground, closing distance before you can shoulder a rifle. They don't shamble into view; they explode from treelines, vault obstacles, change direction without slowing. A feral's attack is a leaping tackle that pins survivors to the ground, clawing and biting until someone intervenes or the victim stops moving. They can be kicked off, but they recover instantly and re-engage. Headshots work, but hitting a target moving that fast under pressure is a different skill than clearing shamblers. Ferals often appear during sieges or loud engagements, drawn by gunfire. Veterans learn to hear them coming: a rhythmic galloping, a shriek that pitches higher than normal zeds. One feral is a crisis. Two is a potential casualty. They are the reason survivors dread supply runs at night.

9. #9Juggernaut

   Keys: juggernaut, juggernauts, jugg, juggs

   Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 95 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Juggernauts are massive, bloated, and nearly unkillable by conventional means. Eight feet tall, shoulders like an industrial freezer, flesh swollen into something that absorbs bullets like sandbags. They don't run (they can charge), but they don't need to; they walk through walls, flip cars, and grab survivors in one hand to slam them into the ground repeatedly until bones stop existing. Small arms fire annoys them. Shotguns stagger them briefly. What kills them is sustained fire to the head, explosives, or vehicles at speed, and even then they sometimes get back up. The sound they make is less a moan than a foghorn, low and resonant, audible from blocks away. Smart survivors hear that sound and leave.

10. #10Bloater

    Keys: bloater, bloaters

    Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 95 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Bloaters are walking gas bombs. Distended, discolored, swollen with internal gases that ignite or poison on release. They shamble slower than standard zeds, almost stationary sometimes, waiting in doorways, around blind corners, on the shoulders of night roads where headlights find them too late. Shoot one and it pops, releasing a green-yellow cloud that damages anyone caught in the radius. Hit one with a vehicle and the cloud fills the cabin; survivors bail out coughing, eyes burning, vulnerable. The gas lingers. It forces repositioning, creates no-go zones in the middle of firefights. Bloaters rarely kill directly, but they change the geometry of every encounter they're part of. Veterans learn to spot the silhouette: that wrong proportions, that too-still posture. You shoot them at range or you don't shoot them at all. Melee is suicide.

11. #11Screamer

    Keys: screamer, screamers

    Enabled · Selective (AND ANY) · Before character · Order 95 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Screamers look almost human at a distance. Thinner than standard zeds, standing upright, sometimes motionless in a way that reads as survivor until you get close. Then they open their mouths and the sound comes out: a piercing, sustained shriek that carries for blocks and calls every zombie in earshot.

    They don't attack directly. They don't need to. A screamer turns a manageable encounter into a siege. One scream brings a dozen zeds. Two screams bring a horde. They keep screaming until killed, and they're fragile. Killing the screamer first is doctrine, but getting a clean shot while everything else closes in is the problem. Night missions go wrong when a screamer you didn't see lights up the whole neighborhood. The smart play is disengaging the moment you hear that first inhale
