Perimeter Defenses
May 4 2010, 5:36 PM EDT
The town needs good perimeter patrols/outposts as a first line of defense. As mayor, I would like this to be the top priority of our security forces. This should include contingency plans to consolidate our forces in the event of a rout or breakthrough to avoid enemy contact with civilians, resources, or the town itself.
Do you find this valuable?

Basiclly incase of a invasion or breakthrough we split half of our forces into 2 groups Commanders and Conquers .The commanders will get all civilians to the ranch/barn and hold up there. Conquers wil go out and secure our important buildings and supplies. From there we plan to either push back the invaders or evac to the barn then leave with our vehicles. The civilians that would like to help will be put on the invsaion Guard. Basiclly a rag tag team of Guards whom support the Military/Police force incase of a invasion. Do you find this valuable? |

we could probably take a few of the bulkier vehicles not being used and put them a mile or so down the road as a roadblock to be incorporated with an armed check point

Also we need to take stock of our weapons. Do you find this valuable? |

"I saw a water tower a mile or two down the road, we could set up a command post/sniper post up there.that could worked, once i scavange enough CB radios we can stay in contact with them, but a water tower is a pretty open spot, we might want to be more discrete with our level of sopshistication in comms. we dont wanna become a target.

"The Chief has given his priorities on defense now we wait for the defense ministers orders on how to implement it. Major whats the plan?"I made some notes @ work today (guess where the notes are) . What I can recall: with 25 sq miles, a full perimeter fenceline is not feasible at this time I don't know our resource status but a concentration of inner defense zones, entry control points (ECP), key terrain features such as high hills, watchtowers and ditches need to be placed soon. Trenches and berms require backhoe + fuel. Derelict vehicles can assist forming hard points. Manpower will be a premium resource. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

My overall thoughts on the situation:low to no zed threat currently limited manpower to provide security to cover 25 sq mi currently it is feasible to create obstacles to channel external threats into areas that can be monitored and controlled 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

I brought a few thousand feet of a six foot high chain link fence if that will help any.

Under actual conditions, I would walk the land and look from both offense and defense points of view to place the proper defense set up (obstacle, berm, trench, fence ,etc) to augment natural in-place terrain featuresClear fields of fire and cones of death The chain link fence (+concrete) will greatly assist interior defenses and ECP builds. Same for wrecked vehicles if we can tow them. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

Very hard to spot anything at night. In addition the woods would also be viable but with the placement of some bramble plants that could be mitigated. Do you find this valuable? |

I believe we need to close our borders to new refugess atleast for now. We don't know if one of them could be a enemy spy. For now we need to set up choke points, and check points until we can get further supplies. All we can do now is plan for a attack and have a escape route.

I am going out on the quad to scout for any nearby oil wells (see Scavenging Missions thread) If I find an operational one, we will have more than enough fuel for the diesel vehicles, since I have a centrifugal refinery on the M35. Do you find this valuable? |
