Scout Deadzone NW of Cincinnati, Ohio - August 21st, 1996

Mission Briefing

Apollo:

Hello everyone. Buses are ready to go so I’ll make this quick. I’ve been working with both Nashville and Southern Indiana to try and find any hint of an RTR main HQ. Recently Southern Indiana has been hearing rumors of an area just north west of Cincinnati, Ohio that has completely gone dark. In most cases rural areas slowly go dark as people die or just leave the area. A whole area suddenly going dark is very suspicious so we’re heading there to investigate. Private Calamari has gone ahead to be briefed by the forward scouts. He’ll update us on arrival.

Calamari:

Welcome Survivors. Hope the ride was uneventful, the rest of your day will not be. KSSA scout and engineering detachments, working off of gathered intelligence, were able to start clearing 3 routes leaving the bus stop before they were overrun. Our goal here is to fully explore this area and figure out why it's gone dark. I'll turn this back over the Apollo to set up groups. Good hunting.

Mission Debrief

Apollo:

Since we've returned I've been in touch with South Indiana and they thank you all profusely for clearing such a large number of zeds on the edge of their area. They've since moved in and secured the area, so they can clear out any remaining infected and give those poor souls strung up by the RTR a proper burial. The area will likely be condemned shortly and routinely patrolled for any other signs of RTR. Finding that supply depot was a huge win for us, they'll for sure be hurting for supplies, and hopefully, our scouts can track the agents we were chasing back to their HQ. Thank you all for your help.
