And yes, I was somewhat far from Yagoton when I started. I was in Chuddleytown which is 3 blocks west and one block south of Yagoton. At first I thought it would take me weeks to get to Yagoton, but once I finnaly decided to do the trip I realised that I could have done it easily in one 50 AP day... :whistle:

well, i started on Penny Heights, that's really FAR away from yagoton. :bleh:

Yeah, I see this is really far... But if we take for granted that you have 50 AP, that it takes 10 AP to walk from a side of a suburb to another (they are all 10X10 tiles long) then you can walk roughly 4 suburb per day if you only walk and hide in buildings like PD's, hospitals or Fire station. This mean that you should be able to get to Yagoton easily in 2 days... Not that long for me.

There are a lot of zombies about, and I just took down two of them, and heavily damaged another. I hope you weren't one of them Bobbin sad.gif

Don't sue me on this, but don't we recognize zombies when we add them to our contact list? I do know that we do recognize bodies when they are in our contact list.

Eagle, scouting ahead is a great idea. I thought I'd do it myself a day before the trip since I couldn't imagine someone would volunteer :P . If you feel like doing it, go ahead, the intel you'll bring to us will be very useful. In fact, it could help avoid a big waste of time. I'd like to go scouting too but, ATM, I'm trying to get both a shotgun and Advanced Shotgun Training before friday.

About the waiting thing, I agree with your views on our HQ in Yagoton. The thing is, if a member wants to join us in our little adventure and is not ready to do so, why not wait a day or two if it means more firepower? I do not like delays but leaving people behind doesn't feel right...

[edit]: I really don't like reading about the hardships linked with starting far from Yagoton. My character appeared in Scarletwood. I ran towards our HQ non-stop. I've reached the place in 2.5 days. Unless you spend most of your time fighting and wasting APs rather than moving, the trip to Yagoton can't be THAT long.

I have Bobbin in my contact list. So, Bobbin, did I strike you down today? :P

Result of early scoutism: Yagoton seems to be already in danger to the SE. The police station to the SE (Newbould Place Police Dept [49, 16]) is currently under attack, with one zombie outside and one zombie inside. The building 2 south of that police station, which happen to also be a necro tech building (the Serrell Building [49, 18]), have 9 (!) zombies outside and who knows how many inside.

If you want some action, that's where to head folks. I'm currently there in the PD with no ammo left and no AP left, chances are that I'll die unless someone else do something in the PD. At least there is a sound number of people there.

I don't now about the PD you're currently in but I've been going to the Serrell Building to earn XP for two days now. The zeds outside the place don't seem to be doing much. They were 13 yesterday, there's only 9 of them left ATM. They could be trying to protect a source of syringes but my guess is that it's only a pack where they regroup to rest. As far as I can see, their presence isn't a bad thing, seeing how XP isn't all that abundant in our area.

I'll try to join you at the Newbould Place Police Dept and help with the fight as soon as I get enough APs. Sounds like easy XP .

[Eagle of Fire]

Seems like they secured the PD now. Still need to build up the barricades tough, but I seems safe for now.

[Bobbin Threadbare]

Doubler, you didn't kill me. I've not yet stood up. Does anyone know if you keep the same amount of XP when you're revivified? If you do, I'm gonna kill everyone (not ppl in the group) and build up my XP, so when I'm revivified I can buy lots of skills.

.:EDIT:.
Oh, and anyone know a place where you are most likely to find a gun? Shotgun or pistol. I don't mind.

.:EDITEDIT:.
Well, that was wholesome. I raised myself from 2XP to 36XP, killing one foolish mortal.

.:EDITx3:.
And I'm revivified! :Brain:

[Kearnsy]

I dont know how you guys die so much!!!!
I venture out at day waste copious amounts of ammo for about 5 XP then go to the PD and search for weapons.
This character hasn't died yet and I have only been hit a few times.

btw-Im up to 54 XP!!!!!!! :Brain: ..................on my first level stupid civilian!!!

[Havell]

Before I died I had taken about 10 HP off a zombie with my axe and then fled to a heavily barricaded building. Whe nI next logged on i was dead. My guess is that zombie I attacked had Scent Trail and tracked me down.
