Welcome to The Crimson Clan wiki pages. This front page is made primarily for giving a brief introduction to us, and for recruitment information. If you're looking for more specific information, please have a look on the above subpages navigator.

Who are we?

The Crimson Clan is a survivor group, based in and around the suburb of Havercroft in central Malton. The Clan has declared the area surrounding Ackland Mall its domain, and intends to make life difficult for the local PKers and ferals. Due to the varying numbers of prey in central Clan domain, some squads are occasionally seen far into hostile territory.

We are divided into three divisions - the Marines, Home Guard, and Militia. The different divisions are organized very differently to work as efficiently as possible. Our doctors and NecroTechies are able to provide revives and heals whenever needed, while our soldiers bring swift death to the infected or corrupted.

The Crimson Clan has an official radio frequency of 27.50 MHz, and a forum for communications. Many Clan members make use of X:00 tactics.

Both veterans and newbies are welcome to join our ranks.

Why join us?

  • If you're new to the game, we'll help you become a high-level player through our Boot Camp.
  • If you're already a veteran, you'll get to play Urban Dead in a new way, in co-operation with many other players.
  • Our numbers are constantly rising. Not so very long ago, we were only a small, non-influential group. Now, The Crimson Clan is one of the more powerful groups in Malton.

As a Militia member

  • Very little metagaming: If you don't like forums, the Militia is the place for you.
  • No officers: Do whatever you want to, as long as it kinda benefits the Clan.
  • But still: You are part of a great survivor group, you have the opportunity to participate in competitions and operations, you have a "hometown", you have other players watching your barricades while you sleep, and you'll learn of the zombie hordes approaching before they strike. Also, don't forget to carry a radio tuned to 27.50 MHz!

As a Home Guard

  • Sometimes orders, sometimes not: In times of peace, you're free to do whatever you want to.
  • Metagaming: You don't need to check the forums more every 2-3 days, although of course, you're free to be more active as you wish.
  • Join Clan competitions: Every now and then, competitions are held in the Clan. Last year, we held a Bounty-hunting competition, and ended up with joint winners - Mr Leon & LK Oddjob, who both well earned the titles 'Crimson Assassin'. This is just one of our range of games & competitions, organised by our Entertainments Adviser.

As a Marine

  • Take a challenge: We expect you to become one of the finest and most disciplined soldiers in Malton.
  • See Malton: The Marines are not only stationed in the Clan domain, but are also sent on missions far into hostile territory.
  • Bounty hunting: A major part of the life as a Marine is spent hunting PKers and zed spies.
  • X:00 tactics: Several players logging on at the same time means a good opportunity for cooperation, plus a devastating effect in combat.
  • Meet new friends: The close cooperation of the Marines gives you the opportunity to make new friends.

NB - If you would like to join us, post a link to your UD profile here, and change your UD profile group tag to The Crimson Clan. New members default to Militia assignment. You may apply for Home Guard / Marine assignment though you will have to be member for a week or more first.

General news

January 26th, '09

  • The Clan is currently doing a tour of its domain, particularly the outer suburbs which we haven't visited in some time. For instance, Ketchelbank. In other news, nothing much thrilling going on. Ackland is still ruined, but the zeds are gradually going away. Once the tour of our territory has finished, the Clan hopes to retake it with minimum fuss, and hopefully hold it for a while. A few weeks ago, treasured Boot Camp Lieutenant, Jsrbrunty, stood down. The Clan had a day of national mourning. Well, not quite. lol I'm now chilling with Alpha (Home Guard). Clan numbers are presently rather up-and-down, generally between 30 and 40. A steady trickle of recruits are coming in, but not a huge number. Ex-Commander St Aden has also returned to the game, and is serving in Alpha. I'm sure everyone is very glad to see him back. --Jsrbrunty 17:39, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

January 5th, '09

  • Father_Alexander won the elections, and is now seated comfortably in the throne. His leadership so far has been very satisfactory, and Clan numbers are gone up rather than down, and he has come up with several new, interesting ideas. Ackland Mall is currently ruined, as of yesterday, but we hope to retake it in the near future. --Jsrbrunty 21:56, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

December 4th, '08

  • The voting for the next Commander is underway, with 3 very worthy candidates. Nomination time ended on the 31st of last month and voting started early on the 1st of December. If we feel that most people have voted by the 7th, then the vote will close then. If not, it will continue until the 14th, when Oddjob hands over his power to his successor. So far, Father_Alexander is in the lead, but Jimbo3 is rapidly working to close the gap, while Waak is in a very honourable third place. But it is not over yet. Anything could happen yet. Meanwhile, Ackland Mall has been recovered and is now secure in survivor hands. And a slight change has come about in the Clan: the 2 Deltas (Delta 1 and Delta 2) have been merged into one larger squad, christened very originally as Delta. Jimbo3 is LT of this squad, while Waak has taken the formerly vacant post of Intelligence Advisor. While all this could change yet again after the elections, we wish both Jimbo and Waak well in their new posts. --Jsrbrunty 18:52, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
