Basic Info:

  • Malls are an excellent place to find a wide range of items; the only major items that cannot be found here are revivification syringes and fuel cans. As such, Malls are frequently used as safehouses and fortresses by survivors. Zombies often check inside (when they can get in), and organized zombie groups sometimes lay siege to them. They are listed as a Tactical Resource Point.

Nichols Mall is a four-block shopping mall in the suburb of Stanbury Village. Nichols once supported a reasonably large number of survivors, but has been in constant flux since April 2006. Survivors are encouraged to read this Mall Siege Guide.

Malton's one and only Kilt Store is hidden away in the south-west corner of Nichols Mall.

For a detailed account of the Mall's dark history, see the Stanbury Village History page.

December 2 Still in zombie hands. Conner Martel 00:43, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

August

August 8 After being retaken again by survivors, the mall lasted for just about a day before being ruined by the Ridleybank Resistance Front. The time estimate is according to the External Military Report from August 6th. --DJ Deadbeat 05:34, 9 August 2008 (BST)

June

June 14 The North East and North West corners of the mall have been ruined. -- Mordac the Refuser 14:53, 14 June 2008 (BST)

A Battle of Barhapolis page was constructed to document the protracted siege. -- Murray Jay Suskind 18:21, 14 June 2008 (BST)


June 13 Thanks to a coordinated strike by the Pkers and the zombies the North West Corner is currently infested with 50+ zombies.--Willard

The zombies, with the help of death cultists and LUE, and have finally broken the stalemate. 50+ zombies are in the NW corner of the mall and more are arriving all the time.--Insomniac By Choice 01:37, 14 June 2008 (BST)
Death to zergers and spies like weekendwarrior. Nichols Mall will fall unless survivors with integrity start showing up in greater numbers. - Brona 02:00, 14 June 2008 (BST)
Battle is STILL raging in the NW corner several hours later. --Jen 04:17, 14 June 2008 (BST)
Grab your kilts while you can, it seems the anniversary sale is going to be coming to a close very soon. --DDRJake 11:48, 14 June 2008 (BST)



June 12 Unsure how many zombies are outside, but the survivor population inside the mall has increased to 457 (as of an hour or so ago, at least). This may be due either to reinforcements, or to the fact that many of the RRF zombies are now regularly targeting the safehouses surrounding the mall. --Jen 03:18, 12 June 2008 (BST)

Currently 163 zombies outside the NE corner. There are several more scattered around the surrounding blocks. --J.Rickenbacher 18:28, 12 June 2008 (BST)


June 10The siege is STILL going on (For like a month or so.) with 181 zeds outside standing and all but 3 of those are at the NE corner.All corners are lit and caded,but no radio transmitters are setup.The went building is still ruined with 19 zeds inside and 8 outside,but somehow revives are still going on at yeoman park.As we all know,RRF Gore Corps members and death cultists are active in the area but not as much as you would think they would be.Breaches and break-ins are a daily occurence here but the mall's defenders keep pushing them back.It's a pretty brutal battle here,it's amazing how long the survivors are holding and how persistent the zombies are.--Gamestriker4 16:29, 10 June 2008 (BST)

June 10, 2008 176 standing zombies [1] (outside the NE corner, at least...more are scattered around other locations), 385 survivors total in the mall. 50% powered. Went Building is ruined. LUE is reported to be on its way. --Jen 01:22, 10 June 2008 (BST)


June 7, 2008 Current numbers: 197 standing zombies (outside the NE corner) [2], 354 survivors total in the mall. Generators are installed, fueled, and destroyed quite frequently. --Jen 03:32, 8 June 2008 (BST)


June 6, 2008 There are 200 zombies outside the NW sector of the mall. --Reaper with no name TJ! 19:17, 6 June 2008 (BST)


June 3, 2008 RRF reinforcements appear to have arrived. LOOK! MORE COME TO DIE! ;) --Tarumigan 12:07, 3 June 2008 (BST)


June 1, 2008 Three members of the Rogues Gallery (all Kill On Site: KOS) are reported within 2-3 blocks of Nichols Mall: Psycho Killer griefer at the Stollery Building, Stanbury Village; tania cinque Member of Death Cultist group Gore Corps at the Boyd Bank, Stanbury Village; and Artardo at the Brome Library, Stanbury Village. --Tai Tao Ren 1150 hrs, EST, 1 June 08

Everyone get to the mall, break-ins frequent in the NE corner. Please help us defend against the horde, together we can do it! --Scottathan 21:19, 1 June 2008 (BST) Example.jpg

May

May 30, 2008 Elements of the battle-hardened Ackland Mall Security group have begun filtering into the Mall to bring death to all that shambles. We hope that our willingness to defend our sister mall of Nichols will usher in a new era of survivor cooperation, and inspire Nichols humans to Ever-Greater Feats of Combat. --Tarumigan 10:10, 30 May 2008 (EST)

May 26, 2008 The real battle for the kilt may only be beginning. With Went NT collapsing under the weight of coordinated zombie strikes, it would seem that Nichols Mall is next in line for the Barhah death machine. --DDRJakeThe Kilt Store 16:20, 26 May 2008 (GMT)


May 21, 2008 The Battle of the Kilt is winding down, with barely 20 Zed and over 200 human in the mall.--Haliwali 04:43, 22 May 2008 (BST)


May 19, 2008 The battle of The Kilt Store wages on, with the tide turning in favour of the tartan survivors. At this moment, survivors from across the land have answered the call to arms and are taking the fight to the sieging RRF. Zombie numbers are also on the up, turning this into one of Stanbury Village's longest, most dramatic siege --DDRJake 10:49, 19 May 2008 (BST)The Kilt Store

Last count shows 250 survivors in the mall, full power and radio everywhere. Any cades that go down are repaired in moments. The only gripe is random revive DNA SCANNERS WON"T BITE YOU!--Haliwali 01:15, 20 May 2008 (BST)

Escapist teams are coming in to assist the in the Battle of the Kilt. Other survivors are coming in daily. Last count shows Zack with maybe 63, putting the battle at 4 humans to every zombie. Cades are being maintained at EHB. Most attacks are focused on the NE quadrant, but a switch will probably occur soon. STAY VIGILANT! --Haliwali 15:15, 20 May 2008 (BST)


May 16, 2008 Mall under heavy attack, all corner powerless and multiple break-in's in NE corner, lots of PKing has taken their toll. About 150 survivors spread throught the mall. Could do with a hand guys? -Moggan17

May 11, 2008 Sacked? All four corners powered, barricaded, and occupied by survivors who are broadcasting survivor propaganda on the usual station. Either the previous poster was mistaken, or that was the shortest mall occupation in Malton's history. --Gregory 04:20, 12 May 2008 (BST)

The latter. --Gafgar 12:10, 12 May 2008 (BST)

May 11, 2008 All four corners sacked after RRF blitz. BARHAH! --Gafgar 14:45, 11 May 2008 (BST)

May 2, 2008 Hooray for the surviors of Nichols Mall! We have working power now but are being surrounded soon by zambahs. So, READ THE SEIGE GUIDE! The Kilt store is working and other buildings in the vicinty are now operational like the NT building. Fight back the zombies or become Harzmanz hambargaz. -Lemony

April

April 23, 2008 After a bloody series of guerrilla attacks Nichols Mall is back in survivor hands! All corners have been brought up to EHB and unruined, but there are no lights. Customers new and old are welcome back with the reopening of The Kilt Store. --Conner Martel 10:04, 23 April 2008 (PST)


April 16, 2008 Nichols Mall is under siege. 98 zeds at the NW corner. barricades are at EHB. --Conner Martel 00:07, 16 April 2008 (PST)

March

March 25, 2008 Nichols Mall has fallen. All corners dark, barricades down. The SW corner has 91 zombies, and are slaughtering survivors. One 47 HP survivor was taken down in 45 SECONDS. --Whomeyayou 05:41, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

March 18, 2008 After many guerrilla skirmishes over the past month, Nichols Mall has been retaken by the survivors of Stanbury Village. Zed numbers in the suburb are dropping off and reinforcements from surrounding areas are filing through the doors. Went NT is also repaired and pumping out highly demanded syringes. Lucius8

February

February 35, 2008 The mall is surrounded, and zombies are repeatly breaking the cades down. As of 18:35, 24 February 2008 (UTC), the cades are down, in at least the SE corner. I recommend that the surviors cheese it (GTFO) of the mall as soon as they can. Comrade 47, 18:35, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

February 24, 2008 The mall is in survivor hands still,but is now surrounded by 100 Zombies. Whispers from the north tell of a resurgence of the The Many and of a brutal massacre in the blackmore building of 50 survivors. All survivors are urged to seek shelter and arm themselves immediately. DO NOT GO OUT ALONE!! --User:Anonymous/sig

February 17, 2008 The mall is in survivor hands once more, after an assault by the Army Control Corps and Cannonball Crew managed to clear and hold the building. It's also powered in 3 of the 4 corners. --McWaffle 17:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

February 15, 2008 Mall is again in ruins, with 11 zeds squatting inside (2 in NW corner, 2 NE, 5 SW, 2 SE). --Dan Everyman 01:18, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

February 10, 2008 Nichols Mall is repaired and barricaded, save for the SW corner. Buildings around the mall are still ruined and more survivors are needed immediately for a successful retaking of the suburb and subsequent reopening of the renowned Kilt Store. Without numbers, we haven't a chance. - Lucius8 @ 5:08PM EST

February 6, 2008 Nichols Mall down and completely ruined after a day-long seige. Zeds inside number 150+. Buildings throughout the suburb are falling by the hour and the area is becoming less and less human. Ruin everywhere... -Lucius8 @ 6:34PM

February 6, 2008 Gone. Utterly ruined. *The scientist continues to scribble on his clipboard, looking at the destruction of the Nichols Mall, a slight frown upon his face.* Numbers totalling nearly a hundred. (Conway)----extra by news 9, we told yall the siege was coming and to get ur cades up but no 1 listened but instead yall told the zed group who reported them in? this is bullshit now were fighting off 30 zeds i hope ur happy u have put my group at risk sighned...news 9

January

January 8, 2008 A report has come in from an anonymous source stating that a horde of Zeds are heading towards Nichols Mall. At the time of this report, all sections of the mall are powered, and all entry points are active and powered. -- Anikal 11:44, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

January 16, 2008 Some idiot extremely heavily & very heavily barricaded the entry points to Nicolas Mall. I could not gain entry and am stuck outside for zeds to kill, those are supposed to not be touched. I think some newb found the mall and doesn't know how to read a tag that says KEEP AT VERY STRONG BARRICADE. --Halo freak 117 17:45, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Or maybe someone wanted to feed their zambah brazzaz!!!-- heathen at frightfan 01:30 16 Febuary 1st 2008 (UTC)
