All Flesh Must Be Eaten, Gender showdown

Just went through All Flesh Must Be Eaten, because I was unpacking RPG books. It's not a very good rules system, but for ideas the book is alright.

And I know that how you represent isn't necessarily how you identify, but for illustrations we can't go by anything other than how the characters are presented. In addition, the game is so old that the gender discussion hadn't really penetrated into RPG circles.

28 males, 8 females. That's a 3:1 ratio, amusingly enough. 9 characters are difficult to see what sex they're supposed to represent, so we'll leave those as Unknown (although I'd guess male for most of them). Most of the illustrations were of zombies, which I didn't feel the need nor inclination to count. But there are a lot of zombies in that book.
