***DECLASSIFIED***
Early May - A sight-seeing trip
Just for kicks!
Caiger mall was secured, and them zacks were taking their sweet time getting there...
Bored of gunning down hollowed beer bottles adorned with much hated ex-presidents,
our silly little group decided it was time to see how the rest of Malton was doing.
Our itinerary brought us to the looming gates of Fort Perryn once more.
Alas, little time was left for photos and the usual vandalism
as Fort Perryn slowly succumbed to the overcading efforts of several zombie spies!
Our holiday-goers took note of the residents' plight,
and following common sense,
joined the fight!
As the Fort fell to relentless (and smelly) undead claws,
our boys made off with memorabilia of our stay in the luscious deathtrap that
is Fort Perryn.
Result: We came. We saw. We stole dogtags.

Late April-Early May 2008 - The Battle for Caiger: Phase 2: Operation Red Thunder
Unexpectedly the hordes did not meet our force in droves
and phase 1 ensured the assault was backed by a substantial force of NechroTechnicians.
Despite a history of firefights, the Airborne recognized that NechroTechnicians were
(and always will be) critical in securing a mall.
The mall was secured in a matter of days, with airborne forces retaking
the northeast, southeast and southwest corners with relative ease.
As other survivor forces established a firm human presence in the area,
the detachment moved on to their next objective.
Result: Success.
Recorder: Dial911
Side note: Now if only we could've done anything about those damn PKers. A bounty list was subsequently formed for this group to eliminate PKers more effectively, and this poor fellow happened to be the very first target. The bounty was, astonishingly, collected within a day of it's admission.
April 2008 - The Battle for Caiger: Phase 1
A beautifully executed maneuver by the Airborne.
Shortly after restoring the Daubeny NT, the revive queues at Dinmead lane
were promptly addressed and the rare sight of glimmering NT buildings was truly
a spectacular scene amidst the blood-red suburbs of Malton.
By later restoring NTs such as Latrobe and Kening in rapid succession,
the Airborne geared up for the final phase to retake Caiger.
Result: Success.
Recorder: Dial911
Side note: The operation to retake Caiger was payback for them zeds trashing our beloved East Becktown!!!
January 2008 - East Becktown
With a new year, the 82nd was going to liberate a new suburb. With the suggestion of a member, it was decided that East Becktown must be secured to bridge the gap between Caiger and Ackland. Also to ease pressure on both malls. So a platoon of 82nd Airborne was "parachuted" to East Becktown. Main objectives include securing the the
a)Daubeney Building (NT) 26, 35
b)Loney Row Police Dept 24, 39
c)St Ethelbert's Hospital (all 3)
d)the Sugg Building (NT) 24, 32
With the ruined NTs back online and PD and hospitals powered,
the survivors of this suburb soon rose from their deep sleep,
and once again took control of the suburb.
Revive lines were no longer some 20 zombies long,
and there were less and less zombies in sight.
With that, the 82nd Airborne pulled out.
Result: Success.
Recorder: azn
Side note: Apparently, as soon as the last Airborne left, the zeds retook the whole suburb. Wow.
December 2007/January 2008 - Operation: Blackmore
Once more the 82nd Airborne found itself pushing the survivor frontier,
thrusting deep into the heart of the nosferatu hordes.
The iconic landmark of Blackmore now stood as a survivor bestion,
deep within a shambling sea of rotting cadavers.
After days frought with intense combat and an unending
deluge of the undead, Blackmore finally fell, a third repeat
in a string of embarassing losses for humankind.
The RRF certainly earned their devastating reputation
through a brutal display of overwhelming, and awe-inspiring,
force.
Result: Utter Failure.
Because of Kevan's updates. Queue ominous drum roll.

November 2007 - Squads!
We decided to have a little fun here. :P
As Ackland was fully secured, the usual wave of boredom descended upon our hapless heads.
We decided if pain wasn't coming to us, then WE were coming to IT!
Yes, we were literally ASKING for it!
Taking in the sights and buddying up into neat squads.
Then watching helplessly as the zombie hordes tore a few pals to bits.
Definitely an interesting experience! Worth the trip!
5 squads, 3 suburbs, a world of PAIN!
The Ridleybank Squad B was doing quite well, until it dawned on them
that the mission quickly became suicide. Gore Corps PKers and RRF
quickly squeezed them into a tight mesh. Poor things didn't stand a chance, really.
With that, Squad B fell back (stumbling and gasping) into the arms of their squadmates
in C, E and A (who were at this point, laughing hysterically at their comrades' misfortune).
Of course, the laughter only lasted until the RRF decided to take a walk into Barville.
The words "Aggh! Geroff me you zacker!" were commonplace in and around Strange bank.
The Gore Corps and their miraculously frequent revives ensured that this funtrip ended the way
it was meant to: IN UTTER CHAOS! (Thanks RRF ;) )
With that, the airborne quickly made their way to better and bigger thrills. In retrospect, Blackmore
may have been a bit TOO big!
Result: A high degree of fun attained!
Recorder: Dial911
Side note: We also took a not-so-grand (aka 1 man) tour of the beautiful Ketchelbank zoo. Of course, our man had the pleasure of getting acquainted with a local animal rights group. Their very first act after rolling out a red (blood) carpet was a quite random act, of PKing. Sweet!
September 2007 - 2nd Big Bash
Ackland Stand
Nothing happened, a couple of break-ins, nothing major.
Result: Success.
Recorder: azn
August 2007 - 07 Perryn Stand - Liberation of Fort Perryn
Prior to the UrbanDead updates, a squad of elite soldiers braved the trek
from Lockettside to the quiet Maltonian outskirts of Whittenside,
a suburb then overrun by the infectious biohazard scourge
now infesting all of NorthWest Malton.
Overwhelmed in numbers, our group compensated by strength
of character, and grim determination.
Shortly after, reinforcements, in the form of the CC, the Fortress and the BMC,
established a firm alliance, a banner under which all of Whittenside rallied,
and under which the undead hordes capitulated.
Result: Success.

Late September 2007 - Saving Private w00t!
WOOT!
To prepare ourselves for the coming onslaught at Fort Perryn,
we decided to settle on the sort of training we were most comfortable with:
Running around the infested suburb kicking and screaming like little girls.
The aim? Move around pointlessly before committing to a large assault on Fort Perryn!
"The one that stays alive longest gets a cookie!" -- the quote that sent our ranks into chaos!
And what a game! We did it while waiting for the rest of our reinforcements to arrive.
...
We should probably do it again. =P
Result: 1st place: Random (About a week?) 2nd place: w00t! (5 days). Horde count: +200-ish?
