'''[[Wikipedia:Borehamwood|Borehamwood]]''' is one of three cities available in [[Urban Dead]]; the others being [[Malton]] and [[Monroeville]].  Borehamwood was introduced on Tuesday, 28 October, 2008 as part of the promotional campaign for the UK release of ''[[Wikipedia:Dead Set (TV series)|Dead Set]]'', directed by [[Wikipedia:Charlie Brooker|Charlie Brooker]]. The Borehamwood map is based in part on the real-life location in Hertfordshire, UK as well as locales featured in the television series ''Dead Set''.


Logging in with Borehamwood characters is done from the [http://urbandead.com Urban Dead main page]. Character names from Malton and Monroeville could not be reused in Borehamwood (and, conversely, Borehamwood names could not be used in Malton and Monroeville.)  All three cities share the same user database and, for the most part, game mechanics. Differences in game-play are based on available equipment and building types (notably the lack of [[NecroTech Building|NecroTech buildings]] and [[NecroTech Revivification Syringe|syringes]] in Monroeville and Borehamwood has made zombification permanent in those two cities.)  Since 28 November, 2008, Borehamwood has been under full quarantine.  New character registration is prohibited and Borehamwood players have been allowed the option to transfer their donation tags to characters in Malton.




==Distinct Features of Borehamwood==
They call me nazi an I am proud about


===New Flavour===
they call me racist and I shout it out loud
*[http://img266.imageshack.us/my.php?image=36738052ls1.png Bloodied eyes] were found in the description panel of the game, spray-painted in [[empty blocks]] and outside various [[buildings]] when the city opened.  Survivors can [[graffiti]] bloodied eyes themselves by spray-painting "a bloodied eye" in any location in Borehamwood.


*[[CCTV]] monitors are found inside [[police station]]s as well as [[Big Brother House (Borehamwood)|The Big Brother House]] Control Room.  The CCTV cameras give views of surrounding buildings or of open blocks, provided the building that contains the monitors is powered.  The CCTV cameras are visible to both [[zombies]] and [[survivors]].
I am proud of my race, proud of my land


*[[TV]]s are another new addition to Borehamwood.  They have been found throughout the city inside [[Hotel]]s, [[Borehamwood/Location Types Unique to Borehamwood#Petrol Station|Petrol Stations]], and Borehamwood's two [[Shopping Centre]]s.  Televisions give a view of the inside of The Big Brother House's Lounge.

:''"It's a national paper that seems preoccupied with house prices and cancer scares."''


:''"It's a recent tabloid. The front page banner questions whether Pippa or Grayson will be voted out of the Big Brother house this week."''

:''"It's a national paper, full of grim news about the global economic climate."''


:''"It's a glossy tabloid magazine, with exclusive pictures of Veronica from Big Brother."''


=== Skills ===
We are marching on the streets at night
*The dead are a lot faster on their feet in Borehamwood; if a zombie without the [[Lurching Gait]] skill spots a survivor, they can click the {{UDAction2|Rage}} button to instantly gain that skill at no [[experience point]] cost.  ('''Note:''' The zombie in question must be on the same [[block]] as the survivor for this option to become available.  A survivor in an adjacent square visible in the game's [[minimap]] will not trigger the Rage function.)


*Due to the lack of Necrotech buildings, several [[skills]] are useless in Borehamwood. These skills are: [[Necrotech employment]], [[Lab Experience]] and [[Necronet Access]]. These skills can still be purchased as normal, but the [[Lab Assistant]] class is unavailable.

*On the day of the city's opening, [[User:Kevan|Kevan]] confirmed that although the [[Headshot]] skill would be present in Borehamwood, it would [[User_talk:Kevan#so_wait..._new_map.3F_whats_for_monroeville.3F|not result in permanent death]].

===Locations===

* [[Borehamwood/Location Types Unique to Borehamwood|List of Location types unique to Borehamwood]]


===Competition===

The competition had [http://www.urbandead.com/deadset.html three criteria]:
*That your character had a valid email address set.
*That your character find the [[Big Brother House]] in game.
*And that your character enter the Diary Room and leave a message for the cameras by speaking (or groaning.)


Succeeding in this, players were notified they had been entered in the drawing. Winners were chosen on Friday, 28th November, 2008 and notified by email.

Based on Monroeville's [[The Monroeville 100]] list, the Borehamwood 100 list was devised soon after Borehamwood's quarantine began.  After over two months of quarantine, the list was finalized and made public on 7th February, 2009.
