A Tattered Journal in The Street

[Thumbing through several torn and smeared pages, you find an excerpt that is legible]

....As I sit at the bar, a bloody and disheveled figure stumbles through the door. "Ugh, again?" I moan at the poor fellow laying by my feet.

"Yeah.... it...it was C Whitty" he gasps.

You see, C Whitty is this poor misguided soul who's ties with the Fortress grew strained quickly, and then were severed due to inappropriate actions. He has been on a murdering spree lately, somewhat a lesser version of Blair Wells, an Ex-Fortress who went rogue the past year. C Whitty formed this small Anti-Fortress, a small party of ragamuffins who find joy in slaughtering innocents they've never even met.

So I asked, "What happened? Where'd he find you?"

"Find me?... Oh no, it was US who found HIM!"

Just then, I recognized the voice as ...[Here the name has been scratched out, seemingly with the butt of a gun]... a Shadow Wolf.

He went on a discourse about C Whitty's misguided attempts to create an organization that could damage the Fortress, while in reality it was the equivalent of a single piece of cat dander on the back of a giant trenchcoat. However, my interest peaked when he mentioned a ramshackle base, jokingly referred to as "Cardboard Box 4", where the base of operations was. As he described it, he laughed, saying that most of the group's strategy relied on maps and plans written with crayon.

"Now that we found it, we will send a squad out to...[Here the rest of the entry has been torn out]

A Malton Recession?

By Private Mendoza, June 05, 2008

The latest news I've been hearing from around the bar, in dark alleys, and during the increasing random muggings (Please stop!) is this rumor of how Malton is in an economic recession. After much research, and numerous Post-Apocalyptic Government funded-studies, the accusations are seemingly true, and the main causes have been released.

Historic depletions of weapon reservoirs, the influx of cheap illegal Dead labor, Urban Dying, lack of safe-working conditions, sup-prime mortgages, shoddy barricade contractors, and PKer terrorism are just a few of the problems being blamed. The problem is obvious in the hardest hit pockets of survivors as the value of Cheese has been weakened by inflation while the Barhah Union currency, Brains, is rising in value. Consequently, generator prices are up, barricade materials are hard to find in the less-populated parts of the city, weapons cost twice as much as in the BU, and even the usually well-off zombie-stripper industry is suffering.

The Urban Dying crisis is a major factor. Of course Bullets are the most effective way to dispatch a zombie, but the urban supply is dwindling and AP cost is up. The eco(nomy)-minded survivor might want to convert to renewable resources, such as axes and knives, but they are still riddled with major problems like low accuracy, and low damage.

The recession doesn't seem to be showing any signs of slowing, so start saving that hard-earned Cheese. Hopefully our city’s leadership can come up with some sort of plan to combat the crisis.

We can now follow up the TFN exclusive regarding a blossoming romance in the Fortress. Local nice guy and Fortress essential Charlie Mon recently announced his romantic feelings towards the new Director of Communications Azula Invidia. Both were spotted together at the Malton-exclusive showing of 'Help, my Grandfather is a Zombie princess!'. We wish the new couple every success in their lives together.

An old bank statement received from an inside source sheds light on secret love affair so well concealed it took over 20 bottles of Guinness to coax it out!
