Operation Nichols Shield
Operation Nichols Shield
In early December rumors began circulating that The Ridleybank Resistance Front was returning to the Stanbury Village area after their failure at Caiger Mall. Survivors in the area began fortifying Nichols Mall against the impending zombie invasion. Reports indicated that all survivors in Ridleybank have been massacred by RRF hordes, but this is just rampant speculation and not confirmed. Stanbury Village has fallen into an eerie quiet. Survivors are encouraged to make camp at Nichols Mall and brace for the impending battle.04:18, 5 Dec 2005 (GMT)
On December 5th the North West corner of the mall was breached and a small party of zombies entered the mall. They were quickly repelled with no reported survivor casualties, but survivors should make note the mall is now a war zone anyway. Unconfirmed reports indicate the incursion may have been scouts of The Ridleybank Resistance Front, which would imply future large scale attacks. All survivors in the Stanbury Village area are encouraged to make their stand against the zombie menace at Nichols Mall.
On December 16th the warehouse southwest of Nichols Mall was breached by Petrosjko and high-level zombies assumed to be RRF scouts.
As of the evening of December 16th there is a horde of 60 zombies only two blocks north west of Nichols Mall. Other hordes numbering as many as 150 have been sighted not much further away. It appears the battle will soon be upon Nichols Mall.
On New Years Day the survivors inside Nichols Mall awoke to a horde of 250 zombies outside their south west corner. The seige of Nichols Mall has officially begun.
On the morning of January 2nd a horde of over 300 zombies assaulted the south west corner of Nichols Mall. Survivor casualties are easily over 100 dead. Mall entry points and Necrotech buildings in the area have also been over run. Survivor casualties at these sites can't be determined at this time, although they easily number above 50 dead. But all hope is not lost for the beseiged survivors. Rumors circulate in Nichols Mall that heroes from the seige of Caiger Mall are on their way to Stanbury Village to help life the seige.
