"My camp is too perfect" = "My camp is a prize" = "My camp is a target."

but depending on what happens you might have some people forming makeshift army's to take stuff back and if a organized effort is used to crush a "point of resistance" i wouldn't be surprised if people came with semi modern stuff

If we're talking teotwaki, maybe even the village doesn't want you there.

tbf i think if the us ever gets to a point where preppers are needed, then outside forces would flock to prop up groups

but, thats just my thoughts on it

@Mr.Black Yeah no it could happen. It would be insane though. Taking on a couple hundred guys with a btr would require insane manpower that wouldn't really make a lot of sense in my eyes

but again, you're free to see it differently

Sure, but in the time between shtf and the cavalry arriving, you'll need to be able to hold your own.

chances are they wouldn't attack you untill they think they could crush you

Only an idiot fights a fair fight.

and if they don't know you have armor then you can use it in the same way the Germans used camod panzers to shift how there battels were fought

yeah

that would be best

Best, so don't bet on it.

only down side to the btr in my honest thoughts are that it has no night optics or thermal

so

invest in that.

Using it as a force projection would be a waste. You just want it to protect yourself in case

I agree on that one definitely

you could use it as a force projection but i would use very light apcs and maybe only one at a time like the brdm-2

I mean if you had like a lot then maybe lol

because a normal 50 will go through that

But now we're talking about getting real big

i mean

toyota with a spg on the back worked for isis

Which would be awesome though

lol

true

used them to kill some tanks

but and this is a major but

you will lose alot of them

we need more armor if you want to save guys

true

manpower is crucial for us as a couple hundred has to expand

We'll get more guys yes, but it will be an ongoing effort to expand

i would say keep them hidden on over watch of critical points of infrastructure such as water filtration and roads

Yeah that would be the best

snipers are great

sniper tanks are better

We're only just getting started with the land though, so this is all in the future

true
