2016
December 2016 - Tug of war over the southwestern part of the suburb continues. JAZED (talk) 19:28, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
July 2016 - The East Becktown Defenders launch Operation COWBOY mid-July with the intent of restoring the suburb back to safe. Within a week, using minimal manpower and little to no support, all TRPs and other buildings had been repaired and declared safe (with the exception of the Flowar Building and other dark buildings).
June 2016 - Most buildings are destroyed, with only one lit location remaining according to External Military reports. EBD reports indicate Coss Cinema, the McDougall Building and several others to be in ruins with several still occupied by the undead, while the lit building is revealed to be the Sweeney NecroTech Building. After the DHPD were driven from their home suburb, they relocate to West Becktown to regroup and resupply their depleted reserves of ammunition and medical supplies. The EBD sets up a temporary field hospital at St. Werburgh's Hospital and the DHPD occupies the Flowar Building (NT), before both locations are overrun by pursuing undead. Both groups abandon their positions in West Becktown. By the end of the month, very few survivors remain in the area, with the Military reporting major damages across the board and the suburb being classified as an official Ghost Town.
May 2016 - The East Becktown Defenders are founded in neighbouring East Becktown and start maintaining buildings along West Becktown's eastern border. All seems relatively quiet, although several new undead are spotted in the area.
April 2016 - The Military reports most infrastructure to be intact, with several buildings powered and negligible zombie presence. Staubach, George Strongarm and John Dorian MD worked to reclaim the suburb, before founding the EBD in neighbouring East Becktown

Survivors had recently been trying to reclaim the ghost suburb with some success. They had managed to get some resource buildings back up, including the Oxley Building, St. Lazar's Hospital, Curle Street, and Piegsa Place Police Department. Things seemed to be doing well, until The Dead flooded into the area and destroyed everything. -- Kittithaj 12:54, 17 May 2011 (BST)
