(Too many adjectives. Learn to capitalize. Actually read River Tactics before claiming it was used. This is VERY pro-life POV. The sentances don't really connect to eachother. This template is better.) |

The Battle of Beer Pit (not to be confused with the Battle of the Bear Pit) was a conflict between the various survivor groups of Rolt Heights and the Militant Order of Barhah (MOB). In the early stages, the use of complicated survivor tactics brought an odd flavor to the fight. Extensive use of barricade strafing, river tactics and rat tactics early on held the MOB in southern Rolt Heights and Gibsonton for an extended period of time, primarily due to the efforts of the then highly alert Burchell Arms Regulars (BAR).
Late Warnings
The Burchell Arms Regulars, as well as the other Active Survivor Groups in the area, only realized the presence of the MOB a day before the MOB crossed the border to Rolt Heights, and laid siege to Ayliffe Street Police Department. The BAR soon sent out requests for aid, and began barricade strafing along the southeast border. The other survivor groups scrambled to prepare for the oncoming onslaught.
The MOB, after thoroughly trashing Gibsonton, made their way North and were met by these early pit stops. The barricade strafing continued for the next three days.
The First Wave
Ayliffe Street Police Department fell to the first wave. Buckled under the stress, a lucky few made their way out and back to the Burchell Arms. Some buildings fell, only to be retaken later in the same day.
A strike team under the MOB quickly tore down and destroyed all nearby Necrotech Buildings except for one in adjacent Rhodenbank. Taking the blow, the BAR, under pressure and crippled AP-wise, now took turns cading. A team of BAR members left to find syringes with which to aid their comrades.
Daily break-ins and buildings falling became somewhat common. Stretched thin, the BAR held buildings indiscriminately due to orders to abandon high profile targets, except the Burchell Arms. The efforts did serve to spread the MOB out more.
The Second Wave
Moving around the BAR's defenses, the MOB ransacked everything north of their position. The BAR continued to barricade strafe, while awaiting replies from their allies. When, after half the day, no reply had come, it was official and accepted that no help would come. The BAR and other survivors were alone, with the splintered other groups around them.
By nightfall, Schreiber Police Department had fallen, killing many survivors inside that stood to fight due to massive numbers. Several more buildings fell subsequently. Just when it all seemed to falter, the revive corps came home with much needed needles and relief.
The Third Wave
By this time, parts of the Ridleybank Resistance Front (RRF) had joined in on the MOB's attack. By the fourth day, the Burchell Arms fell.
Though by this time half of the members had died, a select few had been awaiting to spring from death and had preserved, adding continuation the fight. On that fourth day, the BAR rallied in the south with what remained of them.
The Fourth Wave
Rolt Heights, only slowly becoming red status, prompted swift and wrathful actions amongst all participating zombies, and every last safehouse was taken down but the Eades Building one square south of Rolt Heights, a Railway station in Rolt Heights, and a Junkyard. When all of these fell later in the day, the MOB was satisfied and the Suburb proceeded to turn the color of their work - red. With this, they began moving out.
What was not expected, however, was that adjacent Dunningwood sprouted back up remarkably quick, with a working Necrotech building supplying needles. Back at Otto street, a good portion of the BAR had been secretly waiting, revivifying, for the right moment to launch a counter-attack for a cleanup. The rest were either in Dunningwood, or the South.
On the last, quiet morning on October the 13th, after the storm, only one place remained unruined, a lonely junkyard. The BAR began a reclamation effort.
