Grigg Heights: Suburb generally in good shape. Very few entry points in the north, and a couple ruins by the eastern hospitals. Merson holds strong.

2010

1 January

Kicking off the new decade in style, the OBR partied at Merson and the surrounding taverns, with a lot of bleed over into some of the schools and even a couple of the old auto repair shops. After the headache went away, they decided to embark upon the largest PR campaign to date! The objective was quite simple: grab as many spray cans as they could carry and tag every billboard, Tactical Resource Point, and mast building in the Rose District!


2009

5 November-22 December: OPERATION: VOODOO

On 5 November the OBR launched a concerted effort to retake and hold the Merson throughout the holiday season. With some unexpected help from the Know Nothings, the Rose District's NT was back in business in a few short days.

19 November
While Lebende Tote no longer seemed to be active in Grigg Heights, Rot From The Moors still was--and they were none too happy about the NT being occupied by breathing folks. The 19th marked the first major break-in, with a half dozen zeds clawing through the barricades and killing an equal number of survivors before survivors knew what happened. Through liberal use of syringes and ammo, RFTM was ejected from the NT and survivors in the area revived within the next 24 hours. This also marked a lull as zombies generally left the Merson alone until after Thanksgiving, during which the Know Nothings left.
29 November
On or around 29 November Gods Prototype, a member of RFTM, came to the NT with an eviction notice. Claiming in no simple terms that the Merson building was the lawful property of RFTM and the harmans therein were trespassing. In an unusually peaceful display (i.e. without killing someone or destroying the generator) he informed those inside the NecroTech building that we would be given the limited time offer to leave in peace. While peace is all well and good (and awesome in its own right), we could not leave the Merson. ...Gods Prototype was unceremoniously dumped out of the building and the Order of the Black Rose put another pot of stew on the fire and started cleaning their weapons.
22 December
After holding the Merson for going over a month and a half with zombie activity diminishing down to almost nothing, at roughly 0800 GMT the Order of the Black Rose declared a survivor victory and the success of OPERATION: VOODOO.


5 October-9 October

After some weeks of dragging activity, the OBR launches OPERATION: RING! RING!. The goal: bring all five mobile masts in the Rose District online before Halloween!

SUCCESS!! Due in large part to the superb cooperation of a small team of OBR members, all five mast buildings were barricaded and powered in only four days! Eager to keep up the momentum, members look for the next big project.


22 June-15 July

Over the course of a few weeks, the Rose District was almost completely overrun with the living dead, with Grigg Heights and Crooketon suffering the most. Calling to arms, the Order of the Black Rose captured the Merson Building with the help of BMF Construction and Breach of Peace and planned to hold it for as long as they could to draw the zombie presence away from other parts of the district. After many weeks of fighting the Order of the Black Rose decided to depart from the Merson Building. We drew many zeds away from other parts of the Rose District and allowed them the breathing room to rebuild, but Grigg Heights got too hot to handle--so we got out of the kitchen.


24 March

The OBR has officially made its way onto the Stats page!


19 Feb-4 March

The Order of the Black Rose departs from its current activities to help Marven Mall in South Blythville prepare for Mall Tour 2009.

Marven Mall fell in less than 48 hours despite help from the OBR and almost 150 other survivors. OBR members finally decide to head back to the Rose District and get back to work, starting with Mornington.


23 Jan-3 Feb

Moving to support 404: Barhah Not Found, the OBR helped hold onto the Merson NT. Despite growing zed numbers in the area, break-ins were few. After many nights of Twister and parties in Merson, survivors got bored and gradually moved out. The Merson NT fell back into disrepair a few days later.


14 Jan

The Order of the Black Rose moved to reinforce Breach of Peace and The Randoms who had recently re-taken the Merson NT in Grigg Heights. After the first day, the quickly rising number of zeds on the scene verified that both Rot From The Moors and Lebende Tote were present to lay siege to any TRPs in the area that survivors wished to lay claim to. Survivors batten down the hatches.

By 16 January the Merson NT, Blaxall Way PD, and St. Wolfgang's Hospital are all ruined with zed presence. The OBR and other survivor groups discuss their options.
