I am in the process of moving everything to a website, at -
http://spodilicious.weebly.com/
There it will be better presented, easier to find and less 'bitty'. Just now I will post in parallel here and there, but soon all new material will go there.

Barberton City outbreak timeline
I've been trying to reconcile the reports from the various groups involved and this seems to be the story so far.
17 February
- Officers North, Werbowski and Driscoll are on patrol & are detailed to guard the Barberton North electricity generating station. See http://spodilicious.blogspot.co.uk/p/zombies-on-off-affair-started-with-all.html
18 February
- North, Werbowski and Driscoll remain on guard at the power plant.
- McReady, Shyder and Ruth, and Smith, Brezinski and Grivas fight their way along West Street. See http://spodilicious.blogspot.co.uk/p/zombies-part-2-attrition.html
19 February
- North, Werbowski and Driscoll venture out and encounter soldiers in NBC suits who order them to return to the power station. On returning there they find the station wrecked by a train & return to the police station Maine Street. There they persuade sgt. McGraw that ragers are real and are able to contact the army who will evacuate them at first light on 20th.
- The survivors from West Street - Becky Smith, Wayne Brezinski, Jim Grivas and Rob Shyder - battle ragers and at nightfall Stu, Becky & Steve are searching for somewhere to spend the night.
- Terry & Julian meet Mr Gray & Mr Brown and shelter in a workshop, where they meet Ripley. See http://spodilicious.blogspot.co.uk/p/zombies-part-3.html
20 February
- During the night the Maine Street police station is besieged by ragers and the police aided by prisoners manage to beat off the attack. The survivors are evacuated by helicopter at 0700.
- A SWAT team consisting of Kanter, Grigsby, Barksdale & Jorgenson is wiped out by ragers. See http://spodilicious.blogspot.co.uk/p/rage-virus-part-4-special-weapons-and.html
21 February
Separate groups consisting of (a) Stu & Becky, who have no ammunition, and (b) Ripley, Julian, and Messrs. Brown & Gray try to escape from the West Street area where they have spent the night.

Spodilicious: Terrain
I've extended the Spodilicious empire to include a blog on the terrain I am building. It (the terrain) has to be simple and robust. It (the blog) is at:

Spodilicious split-up
As a way of getting round the twenty page limit in Blogger I've split the content of Spodilicious up. The Barberton City rage virus stuff, which seems to get the most views, will remain at http://spodilicious.blogspot.co.uk/ . The historical and quasi-historical stuff is now at http://spodilicious2.blogspot.co.uk/ . And the rest, chiefly Song of Blades and MDRG, is at http://spodilicious3.blogspot.co.uk/ . There are links to the other Spodiliciouses in the page list to the right. This will remain the place where news will be posted and links given to the new posts.

The twenty page limit
My original plan to have a large number of pages, each on a separate game or series of games, has been sunk by the discovery that Blogger only allows twenty 'static' pages. The interim solution is to reorganise the existing pages a bit to allow for further expansion. After that I will have to have a think about what to do. One quite rubbish way of getting round it is to have a series of blogs - for example http://spodilicious2.blogspot.co.uk/ and http://spodilicious3.blogspot.co.uk/
Sometime I could fully reorganise the three blogs to have, say, one for DBA, one for the Barberton City rager outbreak, and one for the other stuff.
