In Malton's current state Crowbank has become a tactically significant suburb due to its proximity to [[Fort Creedy]], [[Hildebrand Mall]], [[Woodroffe Mall]], [[Mitchem Mall]], [[Giddings Mall]], [[Tynte Mall]], [[Nichols Mall]], [[Blesley Mall]], [[Joachim Mall]], [[Lumber Mall]] and of course [[Fort Perryn]]. That said, Crowbank itself has its own fair share of resource buildings: 4 NTs,  3 PDs, 2 FD and 2 hospitals.

Despite these ample resources, the suburb was for several years relatively unpopular with survivors, as its unusual topography made it rather difficult to navigate, even by free-runners. The undeveloped central streets and the post-outbreak prevalence of overcading meant that moving within the suburb often involved circuitous detours. As a result, Crowbank was often bypassed in favour of more fashionable and attractive suburbs such as [[Vinetown]]. In early 2013, a [[FLUCk|concerted effort]] began, to liberate the suburb and enhance Crowbank's image and popularity with survivors.

'''TSI - JRC war'''
==[[Image:AquaBarricade.jpg|left|22px]]Barricade Plan==
Months has passed since Jerden claimed Crowbank for his own and the war between JRC and TSI still rages on in the streets of Crowbank and Vinetown, leaving wrecked buildings unattended for weeks. The resistance against Jerden in Crowbank has decreased to the point of barely noticeable as individual rebels failed to organize and have been killed, driven out or beaten to obedience. A truce was offered by the TSI, which the JRC turned down, believing in a breakthrough of the war due recent increase in numbers.

Crowbank is a suburb of Malton, located in the east of the city. In Malton's current state Crowbank has become a tactically significant suburb due to its proximity to Fort Creedy, Hildebrand Mall, Woodroffe Mall, Mitchem Mall, Giddings Mall, Tynte Mall, Nichols Mall, Blesley Mall, Joachim Mall, Lumber Mall and of course Fort Perryn. That said, Crowbank itself has its own fair share of resource buildings: 4 NTs, 3 police stations, 2 fire stations and 2 hospitals.

The Crowbank suburb has the following active radio stations.

Freq: 26.05: South-East Malton
Freq: 26.34: FLUCk and Mitchem Mall

Despite these ample resources, the suburb was for several years relatively unpopular with survivors, as its unusual topography made it rather difficult to navigate, even by free-runners. The undeveloped central streets and the post-outbreak prevalence of overcading meant that moving within the suburb often involved circuitous detours. As a result, Crowbank was often bypassed in favour of more fashionable and attractive suburbs such as Vinetown. In early 2013, a concerted effort began, to liberate the suburb and enhance Crowbank's image and popularity with survivors.

Prior to the outbreak there was a difference of opinion within Crowbank between two strangely matched groups. On one side you had a religious group of whackos calling themselves 'Malton's Holy Brigade' (MHB); on the other side you had the various pimps, dealers and other children of the night who sought to protect Crowbank's reputation as Malton's 'Vice Playground'.

MHB set up no fewer than 5 churches, stretching from the 'Westside' of Crowbank right across the suburb. In an effort to combat these do-gooders, several sleazy motels were erected, servicing the clients who came to Crowbank from all over Malton to 'relax'.

Over the course of the next several months, MHB would attempt to have the motels closed, citing lewd acts and illegal behaviour from within and around them. What saved the pimps, hustlers and ladies of the night was the strategic placement of two of Crowbank's finest servicing centers near Police HQs: the world-famous Leg-getter Motel and the highly rated Toop Motel. Even today, survivors in the know still make use of the vibrating beds to relieve stress after a hard day of killing zombies.
