Again, the background you present is just fascinating.  Unsettling and slightly distasteful, but fascinating nonetheless.

Yet, despite that, the idea that jumped out for me is just a simple prosaic mechanism on the tabletop.  The fact that personal forcefields get rather hot as they shed the energy absorbed from getting hit.  Begs the question of the ignition temperature of a zombie.  Very few rules cover flammable zombies; a sad oversight.

I have Hell by Starlight but I can’t remember if those forcefield rules are in there?  Guess I’d better dig them out for a reread.
