Empty Blocks

An empty block is any block not containing a building. They cannot be barricaded, and yield next to nothing when searched. Revive points are usually located in empty blocks, because the poor tactical value of an empty block makes it an unpopular camping ground for active hostile zombies.

In some instances, empty blocks completely surround a building, forming an island.
