    Default Jonesville Incident

    This game will be similar to the games GH and split hosted.
    People will italicize their orders and I will carry them out.

    Short background story:

    Sometime in the near future a virus turns people into mindless zombies. When humans finally manage to stop these zombie hordes an agency is formed who has to coordinate the fight against the remaining infected. Some years after that zombie threat is almost over. Now, near one of the repopulated small towns a ship is found and soon some zombies from it attack people. This is where our main character steps in. Being senior agent in that Z.C.A (Zombie Control Agency) he is sent to that town to make sure that the infection doesn't spread again. Through the main character people can control also 5 special teams that accompany him. Jonesville is fictional name for that town but I am going to use Google Maps when describing the situation.

    If someone is interested then let me know and I'll ask moderators to move this thread into Gameroom.

    If there is at least one more person then I would ask GH to move this into Gameroom.
    There is investigation/detective part in the game. Players can use those teams(through the main character) to check various reports from locals or from police about possible zombies etc. There is also the possibility to call an army units to surround the town and hunt the zombies this way. Though, this might upset the locals. So, as you see, it's similar to other Italicized games but in the same time totally different since players have main objective they must accomplish.

    It seems interesting. I've never played this type of game before, but I'm willing to give it a try.

    Ok then. I'll start this.
    Some tips and information that could be helpful for you:
    There are 3 types of infected in this game: Followers, Leaders, Buddies. People will be infected when bitten by zombies. Their blood and saliva are infectious.
    * Followers: Typical zombie like peoples. Aggressive, slow moving, stronger than humans, rather dumb. Can be controlled by the Leaders. 95% of the zombies are Followers.
    * Leaders: Very dangerous zombies. Fast, strong, sharp. Can control Followers. Can hide themselves for a long time and then attack. Usually they only infect people if they are alone in order to get themselves some Followers.
    * Buddies: Though they are infectious they are not real zombies. They can remember who they were before. Not as fast as humans or Leaders but just as strong as any infected. They could be helpful because they are considered humans and not zombies.

    About the teams and equipment:
    Three teams have cars. In each car there are various tools, 10 doses of anti-virus, flamethrower, explosives and weapons.
    Two teams(including the main character) are in a helicopter when the game starts. Equipment in helicopter: computers and communication systems, laboratory equipment, weapons and ammo. It would be wise to unload everything and set up a mission headquarter as fast as possible.

    About the virus:
    If humans get infected they have 2 hours to get the anti-virus. After that it's impossible to stop transformation and 3 hours after being infected they become zombies. Anti-virus is deadly as well. 33% of the people don't survive after they receive the anti-virus. So, some people might not want it. However, if people receive the anti-virus they will become immune.

    About Z.C.A:
    All agents are immune since they were once infected but received the anti-virus in time. Main character can any time call National Guard units to help him if needed. However, people will panic when they see large number of soldiers and this could just help the zombies.

    Local police and people will give you information about strange things and it's up to you to figure out what info takes you to the zombies and what will take you to the local drunkard...

    Anyway, I'll post the first write-up soon with the location of the teams.

    Mods, please move this into Gameroom!

    You, Z.C.A senior agent Jack Dobson, are on your way to another mission. However, you heard that if you fulfill the mission and get the zombies Z.C.A director might promote you. That means you will be sent in hot spots all over the world. Even now, 2 years after the last large zombie horde was stopped in the Battle of Jangtse, there are still places where large number of zombies are active. Not to mention about all the zombies who wander around in some deserted places. And that is exactly what happened now...

    From the brief report you got you found out that a small fishing ship ran ashore near Jonesville. a small town in California. Few hours after that someone attacked two people in a nearby house. Another attack took place about hundred meters from the first one. Man was attacked in his back yard. Local police checked the area but found nothing. These attacked people have been taken to the community center and locked up. You and your teams will arrive there in few minutes. Since the attacks took place only 1,5 hours ago it's possible to save those people from becoming zombies.

    You have no idea how many zombies were on that ship and where did they go after they attacked those people. It's time to create a plan and give orders to the teams..

    Orders?

    Edit: The location of the Jonesville Community Center

    Edit2: Current time in the game: 5.30AM
