Tapton is a suburb of Malton, located in the south of the city. It has always been fairly unremarkable, save for the annual Tapton Parade and for having the 3rd most populace of all suburbs. There are rumours that the zombies still celebrate this tradition, shambling in step up and down the suburb's central belt of roads while waving marrow-dripping femurs.
Curious survivors may wish to visit the historic Merewether Monument.
When not overrun by zombies, St. Emelia's Church hosts a karaoke night every Saturday. So far, none of the neighbours have complained.
Suburb Overview
Western Tapton: The West is usually rather sparsely populated with survivors, probably because it lacks a police station and is a fair distance from any mall. The Chaffin Building (Tapton's only NecroTech facility) is a popular target of the walking dead, as are St. Matheos's Hospital and Sherston Grove Fire Station. 87H is the chief zombie presence in this area.
Central Tapton: Due to a relative absence of resource buildings and an abundance of open land, the numbers of undead in the central region of the suburb are usually moderate, though Swithun General Hospital is often subjected to zombie assaults. The good people of Phil's Freaks have been known to entertain deanimated guests at the Bainton Arms, so passersby needn't panic if they happen upon a lone zombie sipping an ale.
Eastern Tapton: The location of Haag Plaza Police Department (the suburb's only PD), as well as its proximity to Pole Mall, makes Eastern Tapton an attractive neighborhood for survivor groups. Alpha Elite Squad, the Renegades, and Ständige Vertretung all maintain a presence in the region. Of course, the large supply of brains in the area often attracts zombie hordes as well. Another hotspot for zombie hordes is the Whittaker Boulevard Fire Station of which still holds a few key items in Taptons's rundown town.
Revive Points: Rhodes Park [41, 73] has reopened for business and is now an active revive point in Western Tapton. Dix Place [46, 75] is still Tapton's main revive point though and service there will usually be quicker and more consistent. A zombie's best chance for revivification is to post a request at http://tinyurl.com/zwor5 . Check the "News" section below for updates.

With the Militant Order of Barhah in Kempsterbank, it would be prudent to stay away from the eastern side of town. Two days ago, the Dobbs Building NT was ruined by a MOB and later recovered. Current status is uncertain. Things may change in this suburb very soon, and caution should be exercised by those seeking a safe haven.--ReclusiveYeti

Both the Streets Building [41,71] and The Bruford Building [40,72] are currently EHB. Didn't have chance to lower them as running low on AP and needed to find somewhere safe. Sherston Grove Fire Station [40,75] currently appears to be the only VSB entry point on the western side of the suburb. Few zeds seen, mostly in NE corner of Greentown due to the proximity of the revive point. --Lt K Gridley 15:58, 11 September 2008 (BST)

the Streets Building [41, 71] Is barricaded beyond its list on the plan. Lower characters, like me, now have the awesome opportunity to die in the streets or break them down like zed ourselves. Try and stick to the Barricade Plan as published. 3d 0200, 24, August 2008 (GMT) Edit: That sounds a bit b1tchy, sorry. Didn't die, so no harm no foul. But nevertheless, I'll try to snap them back down if I get the opportunity, but we're kinda focused on breaking the level 1 barrier. 3d 2300, 25, August 2008 (GMT)

External Military: "... crossing Tapton now, can see twenty or so down there ... they're just wandering around ... power's on across most of the area ... can't see a single ruined building either ..." Laitaine 16:45, 21 August 2008 (BST)
August 9th There is a cluster of 10 zombies outside the Stoates Building along with a few straglers outside the buildings surrounding Stoates. -- Dillon Flint, 19:19 (EDT).

The suburb is lighted up and survivors are sleeping on the streets. Not to forget the large amount of people gunning some what few zombies their are whenever they see them. So I updated the map to green.----Yell101 15:42, 22 July 2008 (BST)

Zombah have feasted in Mockridge Heights and are now swarming south into Tapton. Survivors should take care. --Ghills 17:03, 11 July 2008 (BST)
