Sadly SDNSAG is to small to mount adequate attacks on hordes larger than the one infesting central Reganbank for instance.

Impossible, humans can hold out for a few days(as Fgalkin can tell you) but then ammo stocks go down.

Fuck - all my characters have been zombified. And all of them have been victims of being FUCKING HEADSHOT INTO FUCKING OBLIVION by fucking zombie-hunters.

Its hard enough to get fucking XP as a zombie without having someone be able to remove the entirity of it.

Stay down when you die untill you have enough AP to do something, or join The Horde.

Well, I'd been shuffling one of my experienced characters who was zombified towards a Necrotech building, holed up in a warehouse overnight and came back to find all of my fucking experience gone...

Gah.

And that's also happened to my other zombie characters who have been FUCKED by headshotting. I spend all my AP wailing on a fucking tard for a total of maybe 2 hits and then get headshotted to death.

Bull-fucking-shit.

The percentages in this game are just plain wrong. A 20% chance to hit, in my experience is closer to a 5-10% chance. A 10% chance - just forget it.

I hate being out of commission for a few days due to real life. Now I don't even know where the hell anything major like the hordes are or what anybody is doing...

Uh-oh - someone at Blaxall Way PD sounded an alarm. Sounds like Zombies are beginning to move on to Grigg Heights in force, and there's already been a few sightings in the last several hours or so.
This has been another blunder by you friendly local idiot.

Oh, goody. Apparently a horde is supposed to attack the mall one of my other characters is in. So, I assume the plan is to run like Hell?

I did not see much in my daily patrol. If a horde does come, they will target the PD, Necro or Hospital first so we can always cut loose.

or you could make a stand, but that's just a symbolic gesture.

Also, what happened with the Wikipedia suburb map? Did the increase in zombie hordes force them to change the "dangerous" scale? A bunch of towns that were red are now blue..... The zombie tracker seems to be wrong, it says Gibsonton is clear when I'm seeing at least a zombie every block, so I'm asking for help.

It looks like Molebank is in the sights of one of the smaller zombie hordes and fighting is intensifying. I'm in St. Elizabeth's hospital along with some other survivors. I managed to waste one of the 8 zombies attacking the hospital (there's a pile of nearly 40 bodies outside) and get inside, but I'm out of ammo and AP. I did pick up Headshot, though.

If anyone in the area can rally a force and relieve the hospital, that would be nice.

Don't rally, there is zero reason to hold onto a location, the name of the game is survival not war.

Well, yes, however as I would like to continue surviving if someone could relieve that hospital, that would be nice.

Hemlock I'll be moving to Lerwill heights, by then you will be dead, unless you save some 15 AP and RUN out. You will survive, you just have to keep moving, cordinate with me over AIM if you wish.

If you get hit, I'll be in the area on call.

Fortunately the battle is over and the survivors were victorious. There are 43 dead bodies but the hospital and my character are intact.

I think I'll be stocking up on ammo for two or three days and then staying to help coordinate the defense of Molebank.

EDIT: Well, shit, I log in just to check up, but I only have 1 AP left, the barricades have been broken, there's a dead body in the hospital and a zombie in the hospital. Hopefully the seven or eight other survivors will make short work of him.

Nixbank to the south of Griggs Heights is slowly being overrun. Brandon Way PD, Linsey Lane FD, Harbold (Necrotech), and several safehouses in between were all taken down today. My alt is recovering AP and getting ready to flee elsewhere. Maybe heading south east might be our best bet if Griggs Heights gets more interesting.

My zombie character has been ordered to move west to help bring down the PLEB and East Becktown. They are pretty organized; it will be interesting to see how they respond.

Human Dangermouse is still kicking back in Griggs Heights, slowly leveling and watching movies.

I'm down to 31 hitpoints, but I killed the zombie, the rest of the horde has been driven off and the hospital is barricaded. I'm fine, thanks.

Anyone in North Blythville should be careful, there's a 20+ zombie horde stashed in the Claxton Museum. The survivors in the mall have been whittling away at them while they're still trying to mass, used to be 30 in there. I'm debating whether to stick around and help fend them off or gather some more ammo and skeedaddle.
