Zombie Cartographers??

This is in no way a zombie only group, it is open to human and zombies. Actually, I'm human at the moment. But simple Borehamwood dynamics ensure that we will all end up as zombies sooner or later. Probably sooner for me because I'm so busy mapping that I don't even bother to sleep in buildings. Besides, Zombie Cartographer just sounds grand.

The only thing that matters for joining this group is your love of exploration.

History of the Guild

Our history hasn't even begun yet, but our work obviously has. A large part of Borehamwood is already mapped, even though it's only been open for 4 days so far. This guild is just a wild idea that's been floated around on the various wiki pages dedicated to mapping out the suburbs of Borehamwood.

What is this Guild for?

Obviously, most of our work will take place on the various wiki maps that have popped up. This page is just a place for the weary explorer to lay down his rucksack, take off his overused boots, have a cold beer and share wild tales of exploration and adventure. We do foot massages too for a very moderate price.

Secondarily we may also discuss mapping techniques and best practices.

Where is the Guild based?

All around Borehamwood! Preferably in the most remote, unpopulated, or curious areas. When night falls down or zombies force us into hiding, we like to find a nice tavern or a quiet library to rest a bit and map out our travels of the day.

Current Objectives

So far we have identified the following areas that need scanning:

  • Radlett suburb: Area south and East from "a supermarket". I'd especially like to know where that road through the countryside leads to.
Barely 3 days after it's discovery, mapping of Radlett suburb can now be considered COMPLETE. Thanks and good work to all involved. It is an amazine achievement for such a remote and belatedly discovered area! Scouting patrols are now heading south to open up a way to Elstree suburb.
  • West Borehamwood: A roughly 10x10 area around the southeast corner and East from the railway.
  • Countryside: The whole area between the southern edge of Radlett and the Northern edge of Elstree remains uncharted. Theres maybe a 40x20 area that we know nothing about yet. It's probably just fields but it could make a great picnic spot!

I don't know much about the status of mapping in the eastern half of Borehamwood yet so eastern members add targets at will!
