Zombie numbers are dropping, most are concentrated in two areas. About ten are around the St Ferreol's area, and the rest at the southern border, where  Pole Mall recently fell. A few wandering ferals are usually found scattered across Northern Kempsterbank but that area is mostly empty of survivors and zombies move on after regaining ap. - - - [[User:BigJD|JD]] 18:35, 17 April 2011 (BST)

It's a real battle ground down here in K-Bank. The hand full of ruined buildings are usually St. Ferreol's Hospital and a smattering of darkened building across the suburb. Lights are finally springing up again, and the wait at revive queues peak at about 2-3 zombies at any one time.
The real fighting however, springs just south of the border in Pole Mall, where mobs of zombies clash with dedicated mall rats, with control frequently trading hands.
Also of note, Survivor slaying are on the rise as marauding PKers swoop in to prey on the glut of survivors before the tidal swell of zombies arrives once again like clockwork. - - -[[User:BigJD|JD]] 22:50, 14 April 2011 (BST)

:Large number of Zed occupy center and southern (~30), mostly streets with multiple buildings in ruins. St. Ferreol still ruined and held, presumably by organized Zed group. Only radio transmitter found is powered down at Titus. Rest of suburb seems to house ~3 or less in any given block. Probably feral. Whitenoll fell ~ April 5 according to radio transmission. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 15:16, 7 April 2011 (BST)

The previous news report (02 March) was nothing more than corporate-media propaganda. St-Feral's Hospital and surrounding buildings are ruined. Zombies are squatting therein and a number are attacking other buildings in the immediate area. Admittedly, the rest of the 'burb appears to be safe, but Kempster's "green" status is being updated accordingly -- to moderate. --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 04:54, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
:First, please keep the news section posts for updates in status. Second, I have been watching for the last few weeks and my previous statement holds true, St ''Ferreol's''is usually ruined with '''one''' other building near by sacked. By yours, and other SFNAS members admission this suburb is green, with '''one''' building being held at red. SFNAS did not even register on the group list for a week!

''25.96 MHz: "... streets are looking clear in Kempsterbank ... a lot of lights on, looks the area's been reclaimed ... only a few buildings damaged though ... the Jillard Building is being held ..." ''
Kempsterbank has entered a new survivor renaissance. Whatever ferals remained after the last battle for the suburb are gone. All that remains are the dedicated SFNAS zombies usually attempting to occupy their eponymous hospital and at times one other building. Which is good news for young survivors which provides a veritable shooting gallery and FAK fest, when zombies break in trying to retake.
Lights are on in almost every building, radios are slower to crop up though as Pole Mall to the south seems to be the only other place seeing action. The Mall has been trading hands on an almost weekly basis with concerted efforts of multiple survivor groups from the local area recapturing what intrepid ferals manage to take. -- [[User:BigJD|JD]] 18:00, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

''25.96 MHz: "... maybe seventy in Kempsterbank ... a horde of twenty or so outside Julie General Hospital ... a lot of buildings with lights on ... some minor structural damage ... the Dobbs Building is operational ..."''
A new year, but the same struggle continues. Survivors and zombies take to the battle over the constantly contested 9-block area of Jillard NT. As soon as one building is taken , another falls, and as one falls, another is retaken. Neither side can over power the other, and an enduring stalemate ensues with no end in sight. More than the usual SFNAS members are around though, perhaps left over ferals from the last counter-clockwise sweep of the zombie hordes, or perhaps outside help called in for reinforcements to hold St Ferreol's. Either way revive lines are clear, spiking only after a break-in at in a safehouse. PKings are far a few between usually localized at the Pole Mall border and the occasional GKer slaying. -- [[User:BigJD|JD]] 19:40, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Kempsterbank is a suburb of Malton, located in the southern area of the city. The Knights Templar have been vested with the responsibility of the defense, and revival of the living population in the area from the original settlers of the suburb since July 2006.

In August of 2007, Detulux Inc migrated to the suburb to fill their new warehouse complex with weapons for zombie defense.

In August 2008, an organized group of zombies, the St. Ferreol's Hospital Noise Abatement Society arose and have been ruining the nearby blocks and eating breathers ever since.

In December of 2008, Dr. Steel's Toy Soldiers commandeered a factory and warehouse in southwest Kempsterbank and can be heard sending out intermittent informative radio broadcasts.

In January of 2009, the Boardsies arrived and settled in a small motel in the northern section of the 'burb, and can be often found having a drink, and sending out helpful PSAs.

Throughout 2010 Kempsterbank became the perfect location for low level players, the resident undead population in the North East meant there were always opportunities to gain zombie killing experience and the regular strikes on survivor held TRP's meant that baby zombies were never more than a few blocks from the nearest feeding groan.

August 10th

25.96 MHz: "... streets are looking clear in Kempsterbank ... a lot of lights on, looks the area's been reclaimed ... infrastructure looks intact too ... some survivor activity in the Jillard Building ..."

It's been a roller coaster year for Kempsterbank, with zombies swarms having trashed the suburb only a month before, but the survivors have rebounded as of late. For the last month there hasn't been more than 8 zombies standing in a block at the local hotspots of Neot and St Ferreol's hospitals and never more than 12 total on scans usually single ferals passing through.

Every building inside the suburb has s Generator and all but a few have a Radio inside, and the biggest problem facing survivors is keeping them all lit.

Revive lines are clear, with a turn around of under a day. Barricade levels are also very stable, with very few deviations from the established barricade plan. -- JD 03:30, 11 August 2011 (BST)
