In his post he's on highway 8 as well, which is where my group is. And besides, it's really quiet now what with all the running cars and planes overhead missing in the world. The tailgate of a truck hitting the ground is going to echo for a ways. By the time Clover picked up on it, the noise was fairly faint but noticeable.

Well... um... ah.... i think i have an idea why would the A.R. (Army Rangers) drive there and why it could crash... VX! The nerve gas... We all know USA supposedly "Destroyed" all of the chemical weapons, yet have been using in many instances... Everybody has chemical weapons, we just don't know it. As i said the crash should have happenned around a month ago. It was in Fort Lewis where 2 N.S.N. (No Specific Name) 2nd. Batalion Ranger Regiments were tasked to transport some of the VX (that was stored there for "safe keeping" post-outbreak) to specified location to be used, to find out if using such gasses would affect the dead. They were supposed to give it to another group of Spec Ops that were using stealt chopper. 4 canisters of the VX were put in the back of a HumVee M1035. As they left they were dead men, about to die the worst death imaginable.*Time skip*While driving on *I don't even know what name that half-island had* they bumped on a rock (YES, ANTI-CLIMACTIC) and damaged one of the canisters. It took 30 micrograms (Lincolns eye in the penny) to poison them.*Time skip*As they gave those canisters away, they felt naseous. They went in the HumVee and started driving back as they ran into a zombie horde. The driver turned left and 2 seconds later had convulsions, making him crash into the guard rail, breaking the wheel strut. The driver hit his head in the window, losing counciones. Couple of seconds later the passager mistook that as death and quickly killed the driver, as he reached for his rifle he noticed that it had fell behind the seats. He reached for the drivers SCAR-H, but had also had convulsion and was dragged out by the walkers and bit. Any way he died both by VX and bites. (in agony) Now he is roaming the forest.Nother' thingy you might brag about:Why only two, because of 2 things:*Loss of more than 2 lives is unthinkable.*An convoy would make for an easy target.Anyhow Sheldon probably won't allow any of this and i will probably have to modify my fourth IC post... (This was me at my laziest) Anyway, cheers!

You would be correct in your assumption.
First off my name is spelled with a T. It's Welsh.
Second, if it had been VX Nerve Gas it would've contaminated everything in a nearby radius for several months and would've killed anything that got nearby during that time, including your character. This is why VX is classified as an Area Denial Weapon.
Third, your posting quality in general is fairly poor and I'm leaning towards booting you from the RP (assuming you don't improve and no one vouches for you) assuming AnnaBeth agrees with my decision (which she will because she's my girlfriend)

In short, straighten up and fly right. Post with more detail and careful grammar, don't fly off the handle and throw a fit (ESPECIALLY not to Foster, that's my bro right there) and in general just try to put more effort and thought into everything.

So they run around in forest camo when manning cities, then?He started off at the border of LA.One year later he is in washington state.

Yes, forest or desert depending on what's outside the city. If by LA you mean Los Angeles, then he'd be wearing Desert MARPAT because California is primarily desert or otherwise sandy. Which of course would stick out quite a bit in the green, thickly forested parts of Washington.
Either way, please ensure your character is portrayed well or he'll have to be killed off.

Carter and Clover have a truck as well. That's why she was gathering fuel. It's mentioned a few times as well as my first post.

I knew that, just confused at which truck.

How many are in the highway group now? You dudes are gonna look like one scary ass raiding party when entering the campground. If that's where you're headed. If so hurry your asses up, you can distract the bandits (by being shot at) while James, Matt and Shan creep in and get the supplies. :P

If my math is correct, there are five currently in the group chatting: Carter, Clover, Ryan, Niko and Katrina. Then there are I believe three on the same highway we are on, just not quite merged with everyone else just yet. Between the eight of us, we have two trucks and a possible third vehicle if we can get some fuel and return Katrina to her car.

So ya, we're a pretty large group haha. All in an IC days work.

I warned everyone lol. She has trust issues and a bit of a temper. She's a young girl dealing with a lot. Not to mention it may be that time of the month... I'm not willing to ask her though.

-Edit-

Double post again. I'm sorry.

[Wired]

Good times, so the final group will be eleven strong. Quite the caravan. :D

Surprisingly I think the final group will be a little larger if we all decide to link up. There are six in total at the campground plus Nero and Shawn who I believe will link up with the group on the highway. Soooo a whopping sixteen.

Let's go start a settlement somewhere :]

[Wired]

Ah yeah, I forgot that our characters aren't the only ones in the campground. We could have a pretty awesome settlement. :D

Aye, plus any NPCs the group ends up having - the old Northwards group consisted of about 50 people, although only about 12-15 of those were Player Characters

[Ciphra]

I dunno...Chris and Claire are extremely weary of just Jack, I don't know about them sticking around to stick with 14 others lol. They might just do there thing, pick up the supplies while they're on watch and take off or something and say good luck to you all, hope you don't die lol.

[Vertical]

It's a long highway. They could drive down the road 5 or 6 miles before noticing the other two.

IMO that's the most overlooked part of zombie stories. Death and injury due to stupid accidents/negligence. I wanna' see a beloved character holster their sidearm too quick, put a round through their thigh and bleed out dramatically. Or have an actual misfire or malfunction with their rifles. Or better yet (and hang on cuz this is where it gets wild) I'd like to see them CLEANING their weapons.

Oh heh...

One time I RPed a fella in a wheelchair... he retrieved a snub-nose revolver from a corpse's decomposed chest-cavity... had to clean it while shamblers were tearing-down his cabin... oh, and there was a zombie trying to use a chainsaw... things got worse when some raiders lit a truck loaded with shamblers on fire a rammed it into said cabin.

I used to RP guns jamming, and mags getting dropped and damaged, alot.

Remember Dmitry? Like, before and after every timeskip he was cleaning guns. Middle of a negotioation? Good time to clean the Mosin. One time I had to RP him rushing to re-assemble his rifle, and he left the cleaning-rod on the floor.

Ice-storm tomorrow IRL, may or may not have power.

[Wired]

Haha, they're some awesome sounding situations... Literary wise, fuck actually being in them.

[Captain Shelton]

lol yeah what Wired said. I'd also like to see all these inexperienced civilians loading STANAG magazines with 30 rounds and getting repetitive malfunctions from them. Generally only a nerd or an experienced shooter (typically infantryman) would know to only load them up to 27 or so.
