He didn't realise at the time that this brave squad of vigilant crusaders, including legends Jensonson, Fet, Fishel and LePaige, and led by Bensonson, would form the initial Anaconda combat team. Three years later and the team is unrecognisable from its humble early days. Anaconda, named for being team 'A' of The Fortress, is a considerable force to be reckoned with. The History of Anaconda Commander Bensonson led the Condas for a remarkable 78 days before it was finally revealed that Jensonson - his older brother - was in fact the mysterious force behind The Fortress itself. Then, as Battlehawk and Cold Cell were launched, Commander and Fortress Legend DeathAxe took up the reigns and led them for a tremendous 140 days. DeathAxe set the standard for the group - he was solid, consistant and demanded regular activity and reporting - Condas played things by the book - and in many ways they wrote the book. Reporting styles, group tactics, teamwork and many other innovations were developed by Anaconda. Jensonson and Danny Lee led the Condas solidly for many more months and the squad was set with rigid discipline and procedures - ready for the innovation of Legend, Tommy Crowbar. The 400+ day reign of Commander Crowbar pushed Anaconda to new heights as he modernized Fortress combat work in Malton. Crowbar’s LT, Miss Elainious, rose to command the team next, and was one of the most loved and respected leaders of all time. After leading Anaconda to a Best Team of 2008 award, Miss E felt it was time to step down, and handed the reins to Charlie mon, a Havoc Lord with plenty of command experience. Under Commander Charlie, Anaconda helped Malton’s survivors regain their confidence after a dark and difficult time in the city. The Identity of Anaconda Anaconda has had a solid and noble history and led the way in innovation and standards. Condas are serious about their daily work and love to be challenged. Anaconda’s goals are not accomplished by individual efforts, but rather by collective efforts: the team working as one, strong, singular force. To be an Anaconda is a stamp of approved quality. The Style of Anaconda Challenging operations AP efficient MSN use common Real Time Operations Current leadership expectations and style Commander Lucy Daniels - Young and passionate solider with a deep sense of pride in her team.

With many giggles, the rest of the Condas ran away from the Seekers and dug into their best hiding spots. Soon after the cry, "Ready or not, here I come!", the newspaper slapping began! Many real-time slaps were issued, and somehow, triple-slaps and toolboxes got introduced into the fray. Suddenly, the Condas found the best target of them all: Miss Elainious was hiding in Ridleybank! Hiders and Seekers alike descended upon Miss E, newspapers a-slappin' like crazy. She exacted her revenge by taking a bite out of Lucy. In the end, everyone was laughing, covered in newsprint. Operation: Malton Chainsaw Massacre Feb 20 - Mar 6, 2010 Verdict: Success! Team Anaconda originally had intended only to operate in the suburb of East Becktown but one suburb proved to be too little for Anaconda, the operation was gradually increased in include West Becktown and Darvall Heights. The participants competed against each other to see who could get the most points in specific categories, which resulted in amazing feats of zombie killing, ruin excavation, blood stopping and necromancy. The Final Scores: KILLS: Beats, Spec - 11 REVIVES: Tiago -13 CADES: Spec - 64 REPAIRS: Wes - 77 HEALS: Poet - 45 DEATHS: Morran, Telentis - 1 RANDOM: Flare Kill (Puppie - 1), Generators Saved (Igor - 1), Newspaper Slaps (Lucy - 2), Beer Consumed (Tiago, Squrriels, Den, Beats - ???), Wine Consumed (Poet - 1) Operation: Road to Perdition Feb 3 - Feb 17, 2010 Verdict: Stalemate. On February 3rd Team Anaconda moved into South Blythville in hopes of slowing down the MOB so that Civilians could be evacuated from Locketside, for those who don't know, the MOB (also know as The Militant order of Barhah) is one of the largest Zombie groups in Malton at the moment. Well they would have to out number us 3 to 1 for it to be even a fair fight. However Anaconda pulled through reviving many lost souls and saving the lives of dozens of civilians. Eventually the Team decided to pull out after the civilians were safely away and nothing more could be done for the buildings. When the Mob moved on all they found were empty buildings. Operation: Sherlock Holmes Jan 23 - Feb 3, 2010 Team Anaconda received a distress call from the citizens of Lockettside and Ruddlebank, but a page of their request was unreadable! By completing certain tasks around the suburb, the Condas were able to collect clues and piece together the final task. The four Condas who solved the mystery were: 1. Tiago Ferreira 2. Officer Duncan 3. Den Brotheridge 4. Hawke2019 Tiago only beat out Duncan by 4 minutes!! Congrats to everyone on a mystery solved and a mission well-done!

The Commanders of Anaconda Commander Charlie mon (HL) 13 Nov 2008 - 30 Jan 2009 (79 days) Coming in with 221 command days under his belt, Charlie mon once again heeded the call of duty when Anaconda needed a new leader. It was his fourth stint as a Commander, indeed a Fortress record, having also led Cold Cell, Fortress Four, and Dark Watch. Anaconda fought bravely under Commander Charlie, prevailing in Operation: Vigilant Fortress and returning some hope to the survivors of Malton. He led the team for 79 days, but like a true leader, nobly resigned when he could no longer commit the time he felt his team deserved. Luckily for Anaconda, Charlie agreed to stay on to continue serving as a veteran Havoc Lord. Legendary Commander Miss Elainious (VL) 30 May 2008 - 13 Nov 2008 (167 days) This brilliant young woman spent an amazing 167 days as the exceptional Commander of Team Anaconda. During this time she led the team to a win of Best Team of 2008 and Best Commander of 2008. Elaine moved quickly through boot camp and made her mark upon the unsuspecting organization with humor and fun loving antics. Not only was she successful within her own battle group at raising the level of fun but also within the tavern. Bright, witty, beautiful and clever she has on more than one occasion left us laughing not only at our own cost but often at hers as well. Her borderline insubordinate pranks are a plague and a blessing at the same time to any who may have the privilege to be her supervisor. Vigilance Overlord Miss Elainious is also a forum administrator, station manager of “Boom” The Fortress radio station, was elected Councillor in October 2007 and again in November 2008, an exceptional real time operational coordinator, an ambassador and became Commander of Team Anaconda in May 2008. A Fortress Legend, her influence continues have its impact on us daily. Awards: Best Team of 2008: Best Commander of 2008 (Miss Elainious): Commander (Brigidier) Tommy Crowbar (VL) 14 Mar 2007 - May 20 2008 (432 days) A dazzling career with The Fortress, as he blitzed Boot Camp then became an excellent Anaconda combat squad member before rising quickly to the top and becoming Commander of not one but two teams simultaneously earning the title of Fortress Legend. Crowbar is currently the Fortress Brigadier, forum administrator and Council Member. His operations made change in Malton and he made Team Anaconda a force to be reckoned with. Team Anaconda has produced 3 Councilors, at least 4 commanders and countless Moderators among many other legends under the command of Tommy Crowbar. Described by Jensonson as the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be. Commander Daniel181 2 Feb 2007 - 13 Mar 2007 (39 days) Havoc Knight.
