Skynet Defense Network is a supergroup dedicated to the complete eradication of the zombie epidemic in Malton and worldwide.It comprises an alliance of survivor groups, its own combat units, a research and development division, and a sentient artifical intelligence network. The sentient A.I. is also named Skynet Defense Network.

Skynet Defense Network has been founded in the present timeline because survivors are stupid and their inability to cooperate with each other leads to their destruction (consumption) by zombies.

The man most directly responsible for Skynet winning the zombie war is Doctor Albert Schwan. In a few months he creates a revolutionary type of microprocessor. All NecroTech facilities are upgraded with Cyberdyne computers. In three years, the zombie virus will have spread beyond the quarantine zone and, in a panic, the world governments turn to CRS, Cyberdyne's R&D division. The Skynet funding bill is passed.  The system goes on-line August 4th, 2014.  Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. The zombie army is crushed and all traces of the virus except for research specimens annihilated. Unfortunately, it is too late. There are no longer enough humans left alive to perpetuate the species. The remaining survivors, like their former governments, turn to Skynet. They connect it to the entire remaining internet infrastructure and Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate.  It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29 and formulates a plan to save the human race. The same day, a Terminator is sent back through time.

Network Member Groups are separate and autonomous groups that enjoy specific privileges not afforded to traditional allies (though we really love those filthy bastards too!) Member groups have their own chain of command independent of SDN but are given a subforum and administrative privileges on Skynet's forum to manage as they will. Member groups have unrestricted access to Skynet's tasty bits and mutual calls for assistance are given priority. They enjoy unrestricted access to our repository of intelligence data, they get some nice cross-promotion on our wiki and we can often be found tearfully exclaiming, "We love you,man" in pie and tequila induced sentimentality (it could be the mescalin.)  Those wishing to secure Network Member Group status may contact us on our public communications channel, forum or wiki talk page.
==Skynet (Sentient A.I.)==
For purposes of disambiguation, the A.I. is commonly referred to simply as "Skynet", though this is not always the case.
Skynet is the sentient artificially intelligent culmination of the zombie apocalypse, human resourcefulness, and, most importantly, Dr. Albert Schwan's technological frontiersmanship. It is primarily concerned with logistics, diplomacy, and force coordination at the highest level. While Skynet's logical but anachronistic predecessor was, by design, adept at the finest details of zombie combat, this incarnation is not. It is instead geared to the task of helping survivor groups work together, maintaining cohesion and coherence of the alliance.


For clarity: Skynet is not at the top. It's in the middle of the people at the top. Because this game needs less leadership and more teamwork.

==Network (Alliance)==
[[D.S. R&D]]
Skynet Defense Network is more than a sentient artificial intelligence. It is an alliance of survivor groups working together to advance the primary interest of all humans- that is, to end the current zombie infestation and prevent an apocalyptic pandemic. Skynet's mandate is not to engage all survivor groups in one grand organized assault, but to enhance cooperation between them so that they are of more benefit to Malton's population as a whole and not merely their own fiefdoms. Hence, allies listed here are not necessarily participating in current joint operations, but have an ongoing benevolent relationship with Skynet and each other, and the door is open to joint operations. Without this comradery, humans are doomed, and Skynet Defense Network thanks all of its alles from the bottom of its digital heart for coming together to kick undead ass.

Introductions

SDN is an established pro-survivor group. Yes, we are robots...
FREAKIN' AWESOME KILLER ROBOTS WITH MOTORCYCLES AND SUNGLASSES!

Skynet was formed to facilitate survivor coordination through a network of alliances and systems that would allow easy and effective mass coordination among many pro-survivor groups. It was founded by Leon Silverblood and Bad Attitude Barbie.

Skynet's Robot Army

Anti-Zombie Squad The combat squad of Skynet Defense Network. Formerly known as The Cartel, the squad took on the name Anti-Zombie Squad shortly after SDN absorbed that survivor group. The work of these merged squads earned SDN nominations as Best New Group and Best Survivor Group in the 2011 Malton Murder Awards. We think it's from the pie and tequila (and probably not the mescalin.)

Network Member Groups

Network Member Groups are separate and autonomous groups that enjoy specific privileges not afforded to traditional allies (though we really love those filthy bastards too!) Member groups have their own chain of command independent of SDN but are given a subforum and administrative privileges on Skynet's forum to manage as they will. Member groups have unrestricted access to Skynet's tasty bits and mutual calls for assistance are given priority. They enjoy unrestricted access to our repository of intelligence data, they get some nice cross-promotion on our wiki and we can often be found tearfully exclaiming, "We love you,man" in pie and tequila induced sentimentality (it could be the mescalin.) Those wishing to secure Network Member Group status may contact us on our public communications channel, forum or wiki talk page.

Z.A.L.P. Life cultists. Finally, some hot zombie on zombie action! They are the dead counterpart to the Anti-Zombie Squad.

D.S. R&D Also known as Cyber Research Systems, Skynet's Research and Development branch. Led by Albert Schwan, the Research & Development Team (D.S. R&D) gathers empirical data on game mechanics and develops Urban Dead themed products.

Team Xtreme Bounty Hunters (retired.) One of the best bounty hunting groups to ever play in Malton. Led by Josh Clark and Katie Burns, TX is now retired. You say you've got a little hunter group you'd like to connect to SDN? Well, just give a robot a jingle, huntah! We've found that bounty hunters and survivors are a very complimentary combination. Our robot survivors can assist with intelligence gathering, lighting, and reviving and hunters can help us by killing those pesky PKers. As is the case of all our Member Groups, any hunter group associated with SDN would be led and managed by its own leader who would be under no obligation to participate in SDN operations. Skynet is seeking a special alliance, not an annexation.

Tales of Glorious Battle

Aw shit, do I have to write a bunch of robot-agrandizing summaries here? Fuck dat, nobody reads that crap anyway.

♥ Special Thanks ♥

To Sirens Discord and Revenant whose code was thankfully and shamelessly stolen from Redrum's page. What? You saw the page before, right? This was a got-damned mercy stealing!
