Placing news on Hollomstown's page is a bit different than most suburbs, but should work just as easy.

To post something to the Hollomstown Recent News, follow these steps:

  • First, you need to edit the "News Stories" Section of this page. This is easy, you just click the [Edit] on the right side of the screen, down by the heading, where it says News Stories.
  • Once there, you'll need to scroll down to where it says:
<!-- PLACE NEWS STORIES BELOW THIS LINE! -->
There will be text, maybe lots of it, here.
<! -- PLACE NEWS STORIES ABOVE THIS LINE! -->
  • To enter your news, you simply need to copy and paste:
{{RecentNewsPost|DD Month, YYYY|News Story|Your Username}}
Into that area, above the other stories.


  • Now, the rest is even easier!
    • Replace DD Month, YYYY with the right Day Month, Year
    • Replace "News Story" with your news Story
    • Replace "Your Username" with your username, NOT YOUR SIG


  • Some Tips:
    • Don't use your signature! Just include your user name, otherwise the template gets screwed up!
    • Keep it neutral!
    • Use the preview button, to make sure the news post is how you want it!
    • Use <br /> to insert a line break.
    • Don't actually edit the template itself... just post the necessary information.

[edit] November 9th, 2007

Hollomstown is for the most part a sleeping suburb. There's very little zed activity; I haven't seen 10 standing zeds in the entire suburb, and although most buildings are barricaded, many are unpowered because there aren't people to keep fueling the generators. The suburb's only real problem is a shortage of survivors to keep the power running, so I'm updating the danger level to Moderate.

[edit] 12 October, 2007

Theophan General HospitalIs retaken, only small groups of Zeds (2 in Theophan, 6 nearby), Fire station is also retaken with a good cadre of survivors.

As reported by: Juanrdp

[edit] 10 October, 2007

Necrotech Mobile has reached its one month expiration date, and has moved onto West Grayside as its new area. As a final favor to HARD, and the local survivor groups, BlackReaper has scouted the area, and is sad to report extensive damage to the northern NT, PD, Hospital, and non-TRP's. Ransacked and with approx. 15 scattered zeds in the area, NecroM apologizes for having to leave in time of need, but we are right across the border and if you need assistance anytime, post on our discussion page.

As reported by: BlackReaper

[edit] 10 October, 2007

Theophan General Hospital has fallen a couple of days ago and the Roddoway Building also, the fire dep is holding loosely barricaded and with a couple of survivors, the nearby zone is still loosely secured

As reported by: Juanrdp

[edit] 09 October, 2007

Waterlow Street Police Department has fallen.

As reported by: Grifton

[edit] 07 October, 2007

Theophan General Hospital under attack. Loosely barricaded, no survivors inside, but 20 zeds outside. I guess it will fall soon. Members of Necrotech Mobile are trying to defend it, but it's hopeless. Backup is needed, if not, the hospital will be taken

As reported by: LucyFord

[edit] 04 October, 2007

The zombie horde attacking Theophan General Hospital has dispersed. A quick scan of the immediate area saw no zombie groups larger than 4.

As reported by: Grifton

[edit] 03 October, 2007

Central Hollomstown is pretty safe. Most building are EHB, only a few ransacked building. Not much zombies in this area. Anyone who wants to relax for a few days, can come to this place.

As reported by: LucyFord

[edit] 03 October, 2007

The number of zeds assaulting Theophan General Hospital has increased to 25+ and only 2 survivors continue to hold down the fort.

As reported by: Grifton

[edit] 03 October, 2007

I would like it to be known that a fellow pro-survivor group is recruiting and roaming through Hollomstown, USAI AKA US Army Infantry, and I encourage any survivors that like orderly military groups to join up. It has been speculated that Hollomstown might see a large increase in zombie activity in the next few days, and hope that it is again, only a rumor, althought the LUE rumor proved true when they ransacked the north and south areas of Hollomstown. It is also requested to be known that Necrotech Mobile is recruiting, and is now assisting in any revives in Hollomstown.

As reported by: BlackReaper

[edit] 01 October, 2007

Theophan General Hospital is, yet again, under assault by Hollomstown's zombie population. Survivors report that, after a couple of days of hard fighting for the hospital, the barricades have been torn down and about a dozen survivors are fighting a small horde of about ten zombies. The nearby fire station is also reported to be in a very precarious position.

As reported by: SgtBop

[edit] 20 September, 2007

Rumors are spreading amongst the survivor population that LUE, a massive zombie horde, has been seen in northern Hollomstown. Local survivors recommend travelers to stock up on supplies and hunker down for the long haul.

As reported by: BlackReaper

[edit] 20 September, 2007

External Military Report ... flying over Hollomstown, can see thirty or so on the streets ... mostly just stragglers, no organised groups ... several buildings with power ... infrastructure looks intact ... the Porter Building has power ...

As reported by: Koli

[edit] 18 September, 2007

The impregnable Waterlow Street Police Department has fallen to a horde of almost 40 zombies. Local survivor, BlackReaper, cautioned that he'd "bet money that the nearby resource buildings are next."

As reported by: BlackReaper

[edit] 16 September, 2007

The zombie threat near Gall General Hospital has significantly declined. Only 3 bodies remain outside the hospital itself and no standing zombies in the immediate area (though a half dozen zombies could be seen to the west from the top of the The Porter Building).

As reported by: Grifton

[edit] 13 September, 2007

Gall General Hospital is under attack by 9 zombies. There a substantial number of survivors to help fend the hospital, but travelers should be weary of the increased zombie presence in the area.

As reported by: Grifton

[edit] 12 September, 2007

"Hollomstown, we need ur help" is a message I received. It's sent by a radio from Kempsterbank, a suburb in great danger. We should help them...

As reported by: Grifton

[edit] 10 September, 2007

Those seeking medical assistance in Hollomstown should be weary of entering Theophan General. Theophan has been breached twice in the last month and has few survivors to defend it. At the same time, local heroes might want to take up residence there to help fend off the zeds for awhile.

As reported by: Grifton

[edit] 08 September, 2007

Necrotech Mobile has started a makeshift hospital at Loockyer Cinema. The barricades are currently 1 level above free access, and will be lowered tomorrow for freerunningless survivors to participate in the provided medical services. Any groups or survivors willing to help out then report to Loockyer and lend a hand/FAK.

As reported by: BlackReaper

[edit] 06 September, 2007

Necrotech Mobile has decided to adopt Hollomstown as its new home, and is soon moving into the area within the next few days.

As reported by: BlackReaper

[edit] 06 September, 2007

Theophan General Hospital is now EHB+1 and powered. Between Theophan and Waterlow PD I didn't see any zombies. MalTel from this day is active in Hollomstown.

As reported by: TheQ

[edit] 03 September, 2007

Theophan General Hospital was ransacked by zombies. Currently, 10 dead bodies lie in front of the hospital.
