EDIT: it doesnt matter if you go to Bale, Yagaton or Ackland
Just get to a mall and restock
we need to retake the Blackmore Building
FYI there are 180 Zombies inside and 230+ Zombies outside the Blackmore

guys, I'm telling you, if you aren't going to ackland, its really in all of our best interests to regroup in shearbank. Its like 14 ap away from blackmore and they run an impossibly efficient revive point at male way. Besides that, the PTT is capable of deflecting the big bash. Plus, the Klips could join you guys there and plot our next move, as the suburb has been overrun. Stickling is good, and with all the groups concentrated in shearbank we could make a valiant stand. I urge you guys in the strongest possible terms to come to shearbank, and not jsut for the good of the klips, as it seems that everything in roachtown has gone to hell, but the survivor concentration in shearbank could foreseably break the big bash

I agree with dic...ahem, is it ok if I call you DH?  Actually, I think we should split up for a week or two, so we don't present a target. I think if we go to Ackland the same thing will happen there that happened at Nichols. If Shearbank has more defenses, then at least we would have more of a chance. |

It would also help if we blame some one for this mess. I nominate IamRisen. He should take all responsibilty for this.
but im heading to shearbank.

I'm making my way to Ackland Mall. We put up a damn classy fight- by Odin's grace, we'll do it again!

I don't see a problem splitting up, as long as we coordinate regrouping. I'm leaning toward Yagoton, since that's "home" for me (and since I got a lucky revive earlier today, I'm lying here until I have the AP to get safely away), but as long as we all end up somewhere we can get supplies (and recruit!), I think we're good.

I always thought of the Battle of the Blackmore as a strategic choice with no real hope of total victory (Ridleybank going survivor). Like you I was shocked to see how easy the RRF was letting us have it. As I said months ago, our real goal is to corral all the big hordes back up in Central Malton and put an end to the Big Bash on our terms.
Something the Battle of the Blackmore did indirectly:
It forced every one of the largest, best organized hordes to devote themselves to recapturing a suburb that was essentially theirs. This window in which they're all in central Malton also means that every other suburb in Malton has time to rebarricade and have a good old, country-style revive orgy! (Redneck voice) WHHEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOH!!!! Once they sally forth again from Central Malton they'll meet more survivors in more heavily entrenched positions. And of course, if they all leave again, we can just come back.
Our losses are also not terrible. 200 odd in Blackmore, 200 in Nichols, and that's if every one of us was killed, and I'm sure at least a hundred from each made it out. Maybe more. It's not like Caiger of Giddings where all the marbles were in one basket with 1000+ survivors. If we took a hit like that, (if a Caiger sized seige fell) I'd be a lot more distressed. As it is, we're only seeing losses on the order of a mid-sized mall like Ackland. And we've bounced back from that kind of hit countless times. The overall Badass quality to the Bastards involved also suggests we'll all be back on our feet by Monday or Tuesday at the latest.
Now we just have to decide where the next fight is going to be. As someone said before, if there isn't a fight, we'll make one.

Splitting up might not be such a bad idea, infact it seems fine as long as we can all ger organized and coordinated for the return. Plus this way we can gather support from more than one area.
I myself am headed to Ackland tonight, good travels to the rest of you.

I'll be in the Ackland cemetary soon as well. I was actually just mulling over some campaigning thoughts in my head and I'll probably type em up rather soon. I think it would be a sound strategy if it all worked out. Course I'm working out a few contingency moves as well, as no plan ever survives contact with the enemy.

Revived with the message to those who were around me.
"I'll be back."
No idea when though....I'll head for Yagoton probably.
