<big>''Veterans of The Z War Unite!!  Join the VZW today and enjoy the benefits of a highly motivated group of steadfast survivors who know how to ferment virtually anything, and maintain one of the few operational deep fryers in Malton!!''</big>
----

The Veterans of the Z-War (VZW for short) began in [[Edgecombe]] just days before the Mall Tour 07's attack on the [[Hildebrand Mall]].  Several founding members made highly dangerous journeys through areas of heavy Zack infestation in order to join the defense of the Mall.  

Hard won experience has taught us the value of helping new survivors find safe haven and develop Zombie fighting skills.  The VZW actively seeks out new allies and is always happy to provide healing and reviving for proven Zed fighters regardless of affiliation or level.

Membership is as easy as posting to the 'Allies' part of this Wiki page and stating that you want to help fight the Zombie menace and aid your fellow survivors.  Membership benefits include multiple daily area status reports sent via email and filed by individual members.  These reports includes detailed notes on barricade levels, names of survivors who need healing and reviving, locations and quantities of zombies, warnings regarding PKer activity, and heads-up reports on large scale Zed movements, etc.  These reports are geared towards helping new survivors maximize their AP to XP ratio and gain levels as fast as possible.  

The VZW maintains a growing list of friends and foes and is eager to help any other groups who want to coordinate efforts against the Zombie hordes!  Contact us now!

== VZW Policies ==

VZW Supports the Sacred Ground Policy.  Do not kill zeds at cemeteries.

Scan before Reviving.  No random revives, make your syringe count.

Scan before Shooting.  Don't waste ammo on a survivor looking for a revive.

'''Sh.I.Z.O.''' = Shoot Indoor Zeds Only.  Shooting a zombie in the street is a waste of AP and Ammo.  Save both for the zeds that are inside buildings and when you find them, kill them and dump them outside.  

No Bots.  VZW members are prohibited from operating any bots.

No Hacking.  VZW members are prohibited from engaging in hacking.  This includes deliberately defacing or deleting another group's Wiki site.

No Zerging.  Players shall maintain only (1) account in the VZW at a time.  Players with multiple characters shall maintain a minimum (2) suburbs seperation between all characters.

Our radio frquency is 28.76Mhz.

Rebuilds = Ruined buildings that have all zeds and dead bodies removed, are then 'repaired,' and finally barricaded up to VSB.  All this to be done during the same turn to count.
