California Doomstead!

[Malsua 1,422]

Check this place out. The guy sues local balloon companies and aircraft companies to stop flyovers.

 

Here's the story: http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local-beat/Balloons-Grounded-by-Mysterious-Olive-Farm-114900284.html

 

4 foot thick walls, 24 feet high, turrets on the corners. Very defensible. Very cool! Oh, and a moat! He's got a Moat! LOL

This is awesome and gun turrets on all corners

Are the people behind the walls legit though?

It wouldn't surprise me if this was a front for something.

 

That aside, this is pretty neat! I'm just curious though. All of that, and no backup egress routes? I guess they could go running through the olive trees, but I only see two, maybe three, routes out of the compound.

Ray Ray and I won the mega millions. It's a NJ ZED training camp! Ben it has escape tunnels not routes

[bbk 188]

Ha, that would make sense, as it is located in CA

The field of fire sucks thou dontcha think

 

Damn straight, that's the first thing I thought. First thing you do is clear all that garbage out to range of either your direct fire or theirs. Leaving untouched, of course, a little bit to mark as "bait" on the range card

 

Seriously, though, that is cool as ****. But even the Irish have mortars and car bombs.

Attackers can easily hide in the trees and pick off sentries.

 

And fire still works.

In those lawsuits, JCM Farming has described the compound as a place "to provide a secure meeting place and retreat for VIPs, dignitary (sic) and other notable individuals and/or the companies they represent," according to court documents reviewed by the Daily Sun.

 

Interesting... Doesn't this place remind you of those compounds you see in drug cartel movies? Makes you wounder

For a doomsday place it is not very remote.

For a doomsday place it is not very remote.

 

That's why it's got big walls.

[kenw 293]

24 foot walls should keep out all but the most persistent survivors zombies.

[Tactical Monkey 51]

No walls in the Google satellite photos... they must be a recent addition.

I'd love to shoot a movie there. What a great set.

 

Now, if I want to assault the place, i'd just lob firebombs over the side till they stop shooting.

 

Those balloon launchers would do the trick nicely. You could always build a Trebuchet.

 

Of course, once you got inside, all the food would be poisoned and all the buildings burnt to the ground, but hey, you won.
