Crowbank is a suburb of Malton, located in the east of the city. In Malton's current state Crowbank has become a tactically significant suburb due to its proximity to Fort Creedy, Hildebrand Mall, Woodroffe Mall, Mitchem Mall, Giddings Mall, Tynte Mall, Nichols Mall, Blesley Mall, Joachim Mall, Lumber Mall and of course Fort Perryn. That said, Crowbank itself has its own fair share of resource buildings: 4 NTs, 3 police stations, 2 fire stations and 2 hospitals.

Despite these ample resources, the suburb was for several years relatively unpopular with survivors, as its unusual topography made it rather difficult to navigate, even by free-runners. The undeveloped central streets and the post-outbreak prevalence of overcading meant that moving within the suburb often involved circuitous detours. As a result, Crowbank was often bypassed in favour of more fashionable and attractive suburbs such as Vinetown. In early 2013, a concerted effort began, to liberate the suburb and enhance Crowbank's image and popularity with survivors.

Prior to the outbreak there was a difference of opinion within Crowbank between two strangely matched groups. On one side you had a religious group of whackos calling themselves 'Malton's Holy Brigade' (MHB); on the other side you had the various pimps, dealers and other children of the night who sought to protect Crowbank's reputation as Malton's 'Vice Playground'.

MHB set up no fewer than 5 churches, stretching from the 'Westside' of Crowbank right across the suburb. In an effort to combat these do-gooders, several sleazy motels were erected, servicing the clients who came to Crowbank from all over Malton to 'relax'.

Over the course of the next several months, MHB would attempt to have the motels closed, citing lewd acts and illegal behaviour from within and around them. What saved the pimps, hustlers and ladies of the night was the strategic placement of two of Crowbank's finest servicing centers near Police HQs: the world-famous Leg-getter Motel and the highly rated Toop Motel. Even today, survivors in the know still make use of the vibrating beds to relieve stress after a hard day of killing zombies.

JRC With the cessation of hostilities, JRC will now focus on rebuilding Crowbank. We welcome anyone who wishes to help out and a rebuild plan is expected to be announced in a matter of days. A new section for JRC announcements has been made on the Crowbank main page. --Leiter 08:49, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

PEACE The TSI - JRC war has finally ended and both sides have agreed to cease hostilities. The conflict ended with 18-23 where JRC managed to get 18 kills and TSI managed 23 kills. People are cheering in the streets and... nah... most people were probably vaguely aware that there even was a war going on and even less aware that the war is now over. --Leiter 08:49, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

January 2013 The liberation movement known as FLUCk has provided a focal point for discussion, and plans to revive Crowbank's image and post-apocalyptic economy.--Mallrat The Spanish Inquisition TSI The Kilt Store TKS Clubbed to Death CTD 16:10, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

TSI - JRC war As the war rages on, the opposition in Crowbank has finally gotten organised, a freedom movement named Freedom-Loving United Crowbankers (FLUCkers) has formed, inviting citizens to actively oppose not only JRC, but also anyone else who tries to follow in their footsteps. --Leiter 11:14, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

December 2012 Months has passed since Jerden claimed Crowbank for his own and the war between JRC and TSI still rages on in the streets of Crowbank and Vinetown, leaving wrecked buildings unattended for weeks. The resistance against Jerden in Crowbank has decreased to the point of barely noticeable as individual rebels failed to organize and have been killed, driven out or beaten to obedience. A truce was offered by the TSI, which the JRC turned down, believing in a breakthrough of the war due recent increase in numbers. Panzergruppe Arnheim made an unlikely decision to dissolve and join the JRC a a non-combatant force, reviving members of both sides and helping out in the Zombie assault on Mitchem Mall. --Leiter 11:03, 31 December 2012 (UTC) of the JRC. I have tried to keep this newsupdate neutral, if you find a point which you think is faulty or biased, please bring it up in the discussion page.

AquaBarricade.jpg
Barricade Plan

There is now a new, tentative Barricade Plan for Crowbank; feedback is welcome.

Here is some feedback: That plan is (a) bonkers, and (b) not working. Way too easy for all resource buildings to be overrun even by a small horde of zeds, and too few safe places to rest up. 22 EHB versus 33 VSB? Absurd.

(C) It isn't remotely in place, the whole neighborhood is overbarricaded now per whatever interpretation of whatever plan (note that the map below indicates 'cades too, but in an entirely different pattern).

Massive Fail.
