The RRF
The Ridleybank Resistance Front is noted as one of the largest active hordes in the city of Malton. With a daily estimated active population of 170 zombies, the RRF are considered by many survivors as one of the most dangerous groups in the city. Since formation in late September 2005 the horde has only a small handful notable defeats amid many bloody victories.
New Players
The RRF would like to offer a rotting hand to aid new players in the (at first glance) overwhelming world of UD. If you sign up with us at Barhah.com, you'll find a welcoming and fun as hell community to help you get adjusted to the game and gain experience faster than any other group around.
Current Activities: THE MARCH OF THE NEW FLESH
Having had its fill in the Survivor Snacking Zone for the duration of the summer, the ever hungrah zombies of the RRF are preparing to hunt out fresh food, erstwhile carrying the homeland with them. The horde is currently finishing leftovers in the SSZ before setting out. So be afraid. Be very afraid. And be tasty too.
Threads on the subject can be found in the Department of Homeland Security forum.
The Birth of a Horde
In late September 2005 a zombie known as Petrosjko was dismayed to find Ridleybank being used as a survivor stronghold and put out a call for fellow zombies to join in the sacking of Moggridge Place Police Department. Things quickly escalated to the point that Petrosjko declared the formation of the Ridleybank Resistance Front, a horde that would lay claim to Ridleybank as its own territory.
Within a week dozens of zombies had answered the call and Ridleybank soon became known in survivor circles as the most dangerous suburb in the city, a position that still is rarely in contention.
Policies
The Ridleybank Resistance Front is well known for banning the use of both "grey" tactics, such as spying, and outright illegal tactics, such as alt-abuse.
Rules regarding alts...
- Never, ever specifically coordinate your alts to individually help out the RRF.
- If you're part of another zombie horde that is working with the RRF, there's no problem with having that alt in the same area as the RRF and even coordinating with the RRF, as long as that alt is at least 10 blocks away from your RRF'er.
- If you have an alt in an organized group who's either being ordered to an area where the RRF is, or the RRF is going to where your other organized group is, you must choose to play with one or the other until the groups have parted ways.
Enforcement
- Newer members who may be overwhelmed by horde life and may have missed these rules will be given one warning and asked to read the policies.
- Senior members who violate these rules will be given a very stern warning, and if merited, will no longer be welcomed in the RRF.
- Outright zerging (two alts in the same area hitting with the RRF) by anyone will result in getting kicked out of the RRF and a pantsing.
Fancy Tools
As an online game, there are many a tool that allow people to do most anything they want to in the game. This is a quick rundown of things so that people understand how the RRF feels about these things.
- Tools that aid information organization and sorting while you're playing are just fine.
- Information gleaned from public metagame sources are also fine and dandy.
- Any and all bots that automatically do anything in-game are not, under any circumstances, allowed.
- "Scouting tools" are to never, ever be used by members of the RRF. This goes for scouting tools that automatically register where certain players are, what the barricade status of buildings are, what the status of buildings are, etc.
We take pride in doing our own work in the RRF. A good rule of thumb is if something automatically performs a game function for you or automatically collates data from multiple sources, it's cheating.
Command Structure
The Ridleybank Resistance Front is a multi faceted organisation, with similarly diverse objectives.
The organisational structure is (paradoxically) anarchically loose, while remaining tightly organised, meaning every member can choose to be as heavily involved as they wish. Currently the groups operations are planned by a group of elder members known as The War Council, with Moloch as the head.
Groups, Strike Teams and Black-Ops Units
The Department of Homeland Security
Under the leadership of SomewhatDeceased and BongoBrain, the Department of Homeland Security is the main horde army of the Ridleybank Resistance Front, serving as the front-line force which strikes fear into all humanity. Most famous for protecting Greater Ridleybank, it now also forms the spine of the horde and crushes the enemies of unlife wherever in Malton we should find them.
Recently, a group of concerned Homeland Security Agents formed an informal strike team going by the name TEAM AMERICA: MALTON POLICE. While behaving in a fashion that may evoke other strike teams, Team America is a crack team dedicated to directly serving the Department of Homeland Security, unlike other RRF strike teams which occasionally wander off and and pantslessly mingle in areas far away from the rest of the horde.
Auxunit 10
Formed during the first Battle of Blackmore, Auxunit 10 is the gold-standard of RRF strike teams, eating more brains, smashing more cades and ruining more buildings than anyone else around. Bravely led by Cthulhu in Lingerie, Auxunit 10 is proud to also count retired Papa Suskind as one of its members.
The GMT Breakfast Club
Formed during the first siege of Caiger Mall, the GMT Breakfast Club is one of the longest-serving strike teams in all of the game. It is a distinct possibility that they have eaten more brains over their long tenure than any other single strike team. Led by the distinguished leader Distinguished, the Breaky Club still rises early and eats the brainz of harmanz too lazy to get up with the sun.
The Gore Corps
Founded during the original Big Bash, the Gore Corps are the resident death cultists of the RRF. They are the bane of the existence of every harman they come across, devastating their ranks either dead or alive. They are also known for their provacative dress and pubescent fascination with sex. The Corps is currently led by Moloch and Globule13.
The Gray Guard
Comprised of retired old Ridleys, burnt out from the game but still bound to the horde by duty and friendship. These brave warriors mainly sit around a fire in Moggridge Place Police Department in the Zombie Homeland trading war stories and telling any young Zombie who will listen about the good old days, back when the brains were sweeter, the harmanz were smarter, and Petrosjko wore pants.
