Information

General Information

Group name: Army Control Corps

Goals: Reclaiming 'tainted lands', holding safehouses and Counter Offensives

Future goals: Destroying the zombie threat at its source and retaking Malton.

Membership: Humans only (Note that Civilians and Scientists also accepted with open arms, not just Military)

Alliances: As a former member of the Alliance of Giddings, most of the former groups of that organisation are on friendly terms with us, as are most other survivor groups. Specific groups with whom we are allied are listed here.

Notes: All those who want to join (any level or class) may do so - whether you prefer combat or just surviving, we can find you all a place within the ACC. Also, the ACC does not recognize the claimed authority of any self-appointed leadership organisation. Only the authority of democratic alliances shall be upheld.

  • Commanding Officer - Colonel Mac Knife
  • Second-In-Command - Syrius H Kumquat
  • Echo One Commander - Captain Nick Self

Trainee Corps

Newly recruited troops will be assigned to this division automatically before ascendancy to the Combat Squads. Training will occur independently of the main group when experience is needed, otherwise, new recruits will link up with the main force. The duty of an Army Control Corps Trainee is as follows:

  • Reach Level 5
  • Maintain proper communication on the forum
  • Become acquainted with the mechanics of survival (if new to Malton)
  • Develop skills necessary to become proficient within or assume the intended Job Position


Composition

The majority of Army Control Corps members are currently divided amongst Combat Squads Echo One and Echo Two, and each is currently headed by members of HC with COs acting as Second in Command. A third Combat Squad, Echo Three is an auxiliary force consisting of seasoned ACC veterans. Objectives are assigned between them to ensure optimal efficiency in carrying out various Operations. Additionally, each member has chosen a Job Specialty which designates their particular role in the group. Listed below is an explanation of what this exactly entails:
