As the sun dipped below the horizon, a convergence of hundreds of players unfolded at the US military camp, a staging ground for the imminent final assault on Calumet town.
The arrival of a particular group drew the attention and whispers of all the players in the camp. They couldn't help but be intrigued, especially when they witnessed a convoy of vehicles, including a fire truck, rolling in.
"What the hell? Who are they?"
"That's Militia 17!"
"17? That's the Wolverines, isn't it?"
The reputation of Militia 17 had been steadily rising in recent days. Once viewed as a ragtag bunch of anti-government activists who had learned the ropes of farming and hunting under the tutelage of a school teacher, they had transformed into a resourceful and formidable group. Their ventures into crafting items and successful raids had garnered them a newfound respect among the player community.
