I don't know why but every time I see the blackwatch (I know this is a reference to Overwatch.) I am just thinking of Blackwater. Which is quite fitting coincident for an story about military and dark theme.

You aren't wrong. It was still an active warzone they were in. But calling it doing their job was a stretch. Blackwater never had a good track history (Nisour Square massacre, Fallujah, and Najaf, just to name a few, how they killed civilians). Although it is a bit of a stretch to call it the world that's deciding to put the military complex on trial when it is the U.S. DOJ and the U.S. government that decided to hold them accountable rather than let them go. Blackwater never even held that big of a role in the fight. They were just security guards compared to actual U.S. soldiers who fought in Iraq.

So, I will preface this by saying I have no love at all of zombie stories. In my experience, most have lazy writing because "Zombies go brrr." luckily, this is NOT that kind of story, and it's clear to see that it is well thought out and a lot of passion is put into this work. TLDR: Solid 9/10, well done 👍Main character: 10/10 The main character is one of the key reasons i love this story so far. Otherr than adapting to his new role a little too quickly to be believable, he is very enjoyable to root for, and also has a backbone and very strong moral compass that is flexable in a believable and interesting way that makes him extremely relateable in my opinion.World building and zombies: 8/10While most of the world building is believable and makes sense, I will say that I am a bit sad that he doesn't explain a little more about the power dynamic in the zombies. by the end of the available chapters (161 of them at time of review), the author has managed to explain it enough during the fights to help me piece it together, but early in the story it can be a bit hard to figure out what exactly the enemy can and cant be affected by, which lost me a little bit as I was unsure why they were making the decisions that they were. This isn't something that ruined the story in the slightest, but it is something I noticed and thought i should mention. Writing: 10ish/10Good grammar and engaging writing made me stay up till 6 in the morning the day after Thanksgiving to read all the available chapters... I think that says enough 😂.Closing thoughts: Overall 9.5/10 Only concern moving forward is the power scaling of where the story can go from here in terms of the zombies, but im sure the author will handle it well as they have the rest of the book, and im looking forward to continuing to read. Thanks for the content, Author! 😁👍
