:'''The Triumvirate''' - John Spiro, Frank Burn and Merrin P
 
* Comprised of our most active Sergeants, The Triumvirate does most of the work on the field. Each member has various duties within the SoC but what unites them is their dedication. They support the Platoon Leader with the organization of most of the events, they also perform duties, which may have been overlooked by the Lieutenants and the Platoon Leader and act as the eyes on the field. The Triumvirate is the spine of SoC.
 
 
:'''Theta Squad''' - Merrin P
 
* When the general SoC Platoon, doesn't punch enough holes in the enemy defenses or there's a breach that needs to be taken care of fast, Theta comes in. This is a support/fast-responce/hit-hard squad dedicated to making the enemy's day a living (or unliving) hell. Comprised by the most active soldiers of the SoC, Theta takes only the best and the most hardened survivors within it's ranks. It's objectives vary from assaults into enemy territories, defense of key positions within Darvall Heights, search and rescue to supporting the general SoC Platoon. Known as the cold steel of North-West.
 
 
:'''Talon Squad''' - Hawx
 
* While Theta squad is mostly combat or assist-oriented, Talon is designed to be specifically a scout and reconnaissance squad providing the information (such as buildings's current state, enemy numbers and positions, etc.) needed before an effective plan is created. Led by Hawx, SoC's Recon specialist, and comprised by a small number of people, it's fast, quiet and stealthy. Due to it's nature, members withing the squad rarely meet one another or stay within the bigger formation rendering it the best place for lone wolfs and drifters. Provides a 24/7 picture on the situation in Darvall Heights. Talon may be called upon to assemble and support the other sub-groups within SoC should situation requires it.  
 
 
:'''SoC Vanguard''' - Johnnie Rico
 
* The SoC Vanguard or the general platoon comprises the bulk of the SoC forces. It's men and women are the spine of every defense or attack. Most of the time their main priority is to keep everything within the borders of Darvall Heights safe, the buildings according to the designated barricade plan, the NT's up and running and the revive points maintained. In specific times however they make up 65% of the attacking forces, when assaulting enemy territories. However the Vanguard relies mostly on numbers as it's strength and not on superior tactics and coordinated attacks as Talon and Theta. That's why the Vanguard is suited perfectly for the more casual and laid-back soldiers.
 
 
:'''Boot Camp''' - John Spiro
 
* Every good army has a boot camp, where the inexperienced soldiers learn the basics of survival, and so does the SoC. This is the perfect place for newcomers to Malton, unfamiliar with the harsh realities of life here. Veterans, who've lived in Malton for years and have seen the highs and lows will teach new recruits the ropes, advanced strategies and offer training that will make a soldier prepared for any situation in this forsaken wasteland of a city. The young and green recruit of today is the experienced zombie hunter of tomorrow.   
 
 
:'''Commissars''' - BloodRavenD and Flintt
* Out of the main hierarchy, oversees propaganda around the suburb, may be acting regardless of other orders issued to the group in an effort to spread the word and keep the radio waves alive with the sound of OUR music, recruits, sprays the good word and does whatever it takes to get some more people with the SoC.  
 
 
:'''Legate''' - Frank Burn
* Out of the main hierarchy, oversees the relationship and the connection between SoC and it's allies.
 
 
:'''Visionaries''' - Merrin P and Daemon93
* Out of the main hierarchy. Those talented individuals are the "artists" of the SoC, making sure our style, wiki page and overall visual perception is in its best.
 
 
''As our numbers raise newer positions will be included to better our order and structure.''

Back in the ''old days'' it was '''pride''' to be an LCD or CDF, and now we are proud to be the '''Soldiers of Crossman'''. Moreover it wasn't just the pride, but it was the friendship and brotherhood that we developed with each other. The knowledge that you always have someone to watch your back, ''that no matter what the odds'', we all '''stand together''' win or lose. As such we mainly don't look for the level or experience but for:
 
* Dedication.
* Loyalty.
* Brotherhood or standing together no matter what the odds.
 
If you feel you possess those qualities, then you are more then welcomed to join us. '''Prospective members - please contact us on our forum or one of us in game, sign your name and profile like everyone else on the end of the Members section of this page and register to our forum (if you haven't already done so in the process of contacting us). Thank you.'''

Too often we find ourselves alone, scattered, disillusioned and last but not least surrounded by danger. Often as not you can't even trust survivors like you and I. What I envisioned was a '''bond''' - friendship and trust, trust that you will never find yourself left behind or alone when in need. To know that no matter how fierce the enemy is, you fight together with your brothers and sisters until the end, victory or not. '''No matter what the odds, no matter what it costs. With respect towards the enemy, honour and duty'''. All of us lost people, who we cared for and '''SoC''' represents family, our bond being our testament. I wish for myself and for everyone else to '''fight with cold determination and sheer tenacity'''. Having that I believe, will allow us to restore Darvall Heights and North-West back to the survivor haven it used to be and later to assist everyone else in Malton.

26.43 		NPOV Statement: The Soldiers of Crossman began in early 2009 as the result of a merger between two historical Maltonian groups: the Crossman Defense Force (CDF) and the Liberation of Crossman Department (LCD), both based out of Darvall Heights. The Soldiers of Crossman's operations encompass most of the Northwest of Malton and deal primarily with reclamation and repair of ruined suburbs.

Who we are

The Soldiers of Crossman (SoC) is a tightly-knit crew — a brotherhood — of diverse individuals. We operate primarily in the Northwest of Malton, with an overarching goal of unifying the Northwest under one banner in order to keep it safe while fighting the good fight. We put loyalty and dedication above all, and regularly defend our own in battle and elsewhere. Due to an active and intelligent member base, the SoC has a broad reach over activities in the Northwest, with members of the group regularly patrolling and engaged in a number of suburbs.


What we do

The Soldiers of Crossman focus primarily on helping those who are incapable of helping themselves. Towards that goal, we focus on reclaiming suburbs that have been lost, more so than defending any specific suburb against day-to-day attacks. As a result, we are almost always on the move to the next destination as soon as we get our current one secured. We have a few suburbs that we consider our preferred stomping grounds, and Darvall Heights will always be our home. It's the heart of the Northwest, which we've vowed to defend.
Quick revives may be had at Salopia Row, Darvall Heights [21,29], usually the main revive point for Caiger Mall survivors. If Herman NT [24,26] is active, cemetery [24,27] one block south is the group's primary revive point.


Mottoes

  • SoC - Today, Tomorrow, Forever.
  • SoC - Honor and Duty.
  • SoC - Dedication and Tenacity.
