Welcome to the Crimson Clan wiki pages. This front page is made primarily for giving a brief introduction to us, and for recruitment information. If you're looking for more specific information, please have a look on the above subpages navigator.

Who are we?

The Crimson Clan is one of the bigger survivor groups in Malton, based in and around the suburb of Havercroft in central Malton. The Clan has declared the area surrounding Ackland Mall its domain, and intend to make life difficult for the local PKers and ferals. Due to the varying numbers of prey in central Clan domain, some squads are occasionally seen far into hostile territory.

We are divided into three divisions - the Marines, Home Guard, and Militia. The different divisions are organized very differently to work as efficiently as possible. Our doctors and NecroTechies are able to provide revives and heals whenever needed, while our soldiers bring swift death to the infected or corrupted.

The Crimson Clan has an official radio frequency of 27.50 MHz, and a forum for communications. Many Clan members make use of X:00 tactics.

Both veterans and newbies are welcome to join our ranks.

Why join us?

  • If you're new to the game, we'll help you become a high-level player through our Boot Camp.
  • If you're already a veteran, you'll get to play Urban Dead in a new way, in co-operation with many other players.
  • Our numbers are constantly rising. Not so very long ago, we were only a small, non-influential group. Now, The Crimson Clan is one of the most powerful groups in Malton.

As a Militia member

  • Very little metagaming: If you don't like forums, the Militia is the place for you.
  • No officers: Do whatever you want to, as long as it kinda benefits the Clan.
  • But still: You are part of a great survivor group, you have the opportunity to participate in competitions and operations, you have a "hometown", you have other players watching your barricades while you sleep, and you'll learn of the zombie hordes approaching before they strike. Also, don't forget to carry a radio tuned to 27.50 MHz!

As a Home Guard

  • Sometimes orders, sometimes not: In times of peace, you're free to do whatever you want to.
  • Metagaming: You don't need to check the forums more every 2-3 days, although of course, you're free to be more active as you wish.
  • Join Clan competitions: Every now and then, competitions are held in the Clan. Last year, we held a Bounty-hunting competition, and ended up with joint winners - Mr Leon & LK Oddjob, who both well earned the titles 'Crimson Assassin'. This is just one of our range of games & competitions, organised by our Entertainments Adviser.

As a Marine

  • Take a challenge: We expect you to become one of the finest and most disciplined soldiers in Malton.
  • See Malton: The Marines are not only stationed in the Clan domain, but are also sent on missions far into hostile territory.
  • Bounty hunting: A major part of the life as a Marine is spent hunting PKers and zed spies.
  • X:00 tactics: Several players logging on at the same time means a good opportunity for cooperation, plus a devastating effect in combat.
  • Meet new friends: The close cooperation of the Marines gives you the opportunity to make new friends.

NB - If you would like to join us, post a link to your UD profile here, and change your UD profile group tag to The Crimson Clan. New members default to Militia assignment. You may apply for Home Guard / Marine assignment though you will have to be member for a week or more first.

General news

November 15th, '08

  • The Crimson Clan have moved down to Marven Mall, South Blythville, in order to find some more fertile grounds over which to hold our annual Bounty Hunter competition. We hope to harass the local PKers over the next few weeks, hopefully having fun in the process. LK Oddjob 20:13, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

October 17th, '08

  • Oddjob has now quite settled in as our Commander and is full of new ideas and suggestions for improving the Clan's future. He values us, as Clan members and also takes everyone's opinions into account, providing a well-balanced, fair UD life. Since the last 'News' article, various changes have taken place regarding the Leadership Team. These include W J Higgins standing down from the position of Alpha (Home Guard) Ltn, being replaced by Loco, a fresh-faced leader, keen to cut his teeth. He has been a total success so far, and we wish him much luck in continuing his good work. Ackland Mall has recently been ruined, having been sieged by Feral Undead for approximately a month, and finished off by the visiting RRF. We hope to retake our HQ in the near future. Current Clan numbers show up on the Stats as about 62, up from last month. --Jsrbrunty 22:28, 17 October 2008 (BST)

September 20th, '08

  • Oddjob is now Commander of the Clan, and settling down nicely. He has served in the Clan for over a year and has worked as head of a marine squad for about 8 months. A truly dedicated Clannie. The only sort who could possibly be leader of a large and successful group such as ours. Ackland Mall is currently in survivor control though under a siege of sorts, with approximately 30 zombies standing outside. --Jsrbrunty 22:55, 20 September 2008 (BST)

August 25th, '08

  • As Cyadora prepares to stand down, having served for one golden 3-month term in the hotseat, issues in our home domain begin to look up too, as if in tribute to Cyadora's magical reign. Ackland Mall is in survivor hands once again, and much of the Inner Circle is also looking safer than it has been for a while. The Outer Circle is relatively safe, though the Clan's forces are focusing on locations slightly closer to our headquarters. The nomination period for Clan leader has started, and Commander hopefuls do their level best to make a last-minute impression on the troops. May the best man win! Or woman... --Jsrbrunty 22:57, 25 August 2008 (BST)

July 30th, '08

  • The Clan are currently facing hard times, with an ever-increasing horde (nearly 100 zombies so far) sieging Ackland, and not helped by PKers, Mostly Harmless, targeting us too. However, we are fighting back with a will and are far, far from being defeated! The Mall is still standing strong, with much assistance from AMS and other local groups and individuals. Crimson numbers are still rising gradually, the Stats page telling us we have about 65 active members. Even now, during a siege of our homeland, a steady stream of recruits are attracted our way. Whatever Fate brings our way, we shall fight back, learn and grow the same as ever, always coming out victorious in the end. --Jsrbrunty 20:21, 30 July 2008 (BST)
