If I have not said so in person yet, I would like to welcome you to the FinestMercenary Establishment the outlands have to offer. Within this manual lies the

means to create and defend a base of Operations from even the most abominable

threats known to the Outlands. Using the protocols and tactics provided in thisguide, attention to detail is required; your very life may depend on it. With great

pleasure, I bestow upon you the information needed to outlast any worthyopponent who would dare lay his feet on ACM Soil.

Headquarters Construction

The core of any establishment not only lies with its members, but with its

base of operations. Here, the very Dealings/Assignments that pay for housing,food, weapons and supplies are discussed and debated. Many members call this



pg. 3

place their home, not to mention, the prime location for training recruits. With any

large-scale base, it requires complete devotion from its members to secure it,establish it, and prevent any enemy forces from collecting confidential information

such as this.

Location:

When scouring the outlands for a location to set up headquarters, many

factors must be taken into consideration. Naturally, environmental cover andaltitude are the prime components. If possible, utilize the high ground immediately.

This will allow you to have a commanding view of the entire battlefield and vast

line of sight. Taking the high ground also forces invading enemies to look up intothe brightness of sky, possibly blinding them under certain circumstances. It is

extremely hard to approach as defenders can fire upon invaders before they are

within retaliation range. To put it lightly, you‟re King of the castle.Choosing natural barriers will also work to your advantage. If you encounter building rubble, or mountainside rocks, consider this heavily, it could act as a

natural wall or choke point.

Building and Fortifying an H.Q:

The construction of your Headquarters is the most crucial step in any

established group as the amount of effort put in directly shows in the final product.

Time and resources are a major factor when deciding what type of Building youneed. For instance, a small outpost will not require as much time and materials as

the complete H.Q will.

Once a location has been chosen, quickly establish a perimeter to protect

those constructing the base. Immediately begin with the outer wall or fence. If theresources are available, a strong concrete perimeter roughly eight to ten feet tall



pg. 4

around will be nearly impenetrable. An alternative is to use destroyed buildings

with piled cars/debris as a barrier around them. If fencing is the only option, makesure to leave a wide space between the fence and the area of operations, with

plenty of internal cover from outsiders. Then use sheet metal or wood to cover up

the fence to block external observation.

If the perimeter is established, utilize whatever resources are inside tocontinue making your H.Q. As stated earlier, a Base of Operations should be built

around a previously established pre-war area, giving you full use of the sheltersalready there. If no shelters are established, wood beams and sheet metal are a

good temporary starting point to create buildings. Tents are also an alternative as

they provide safety from the elements, but no protection from attackers.

Building and Fortifying Continued:

Specific Buildings are required when planning a headquarters that must betaken into consideration. Lacking one or two of these facilities can lead to disaster.

Needed Facilities are as Follows:

Barracks

Shooting Range/Training Area

Meeting Area/H.Q Operations

Storage/Armory

Guard Towers

Front Gate Checkpoint

Fortified Walls

Water Storage Tower/Tank

Optional Facilities are as follows:

Chapel



pg. 5

Relaxation Area

Clinic

Mess Facility

Reinforcing buildings and walls are a costly, but necessary step in ensuringsafety. Consistently add sheet metal or concrete to ensure the stability and attack- proofing of the structure. Create staggered supports to prevent collapse at all times.

Guard Towers should also be placed on each corner of the encampment, allowingfor a high-altitude view of the battlefield.



pg. 6

Traps:

There‟s nothing dishonorable about letting your enemies walk unknowingly

to their deaths. In this sections, Several Traps will be discussed that can easily be

created from abundant resources. Be creative when designing some of your own.Always remember Your Trap Placement Locations.

Bear traps are an example of a trap that is easily found, or created. To build

one, create an axle on witch two jagged jaws are hinged. Hold them apart by astrong spring that can be released from a center pedal when depressed. Space

accordingly around your H.Q.

Grenade wires are a simple concept. Hang any form of explosive device

lightly by the pin on a thin wire low to the ground. When an enemy triggers the

wire the grenade pin is pulled. You can figure out the rest. Subsequently, bells can be hung instead of grenades for a non-lethal effect.

Tiger pits are a classic way of eliminating enemies and discouraging morale.

Simply dig a pit and line the insides with spikes and other deadly objects. Makesure to cover the top of the pit with twigs and leaves that are weak enough to fall

through.



pg. 7

Traps Continued:

There are endless combinations of traps. For the record, here is a small list

of some that can be used with abundant materials:

Mines

Tripwired firearms

Pitfalls

Bullet traps

Snares

Tree branch traps

Fire bombs (not advised)

Radiation exposure (not advised)

Triggered blades

Rock/boulder drops

With the main reason for traps being to demoralize attackers, make them as

gruesome and as hidden as possible. As stated before: REMEMBER Trap

Placement locations!

DEFENSE PROCEDUREs

Its one task to build a headquarters, its another to keep it protected. This

section will discuss the various tactics used to defend one‟s base from attack ,

assault and siege. Even with an overpowering force, a well defended and supplied base can outlast the largest offensive army.

Basic Defense (guarding]:

When guarding your Base of Operations, there needs to constantly be a clear

sightline of the battlefield and strong communication between the post and the

interior of the establshment. Sightings must be reported at all times. There are twospecific posts which need to be manned non-stop that will be discussed:

The Front Gate:

The main entrance can either be the strongest zone in the base or the weakest

depending on your organization skills. Under normal circumstances, the gate can

remain open. When an entity considered a threat nears itself, the gate must beclosed. There must be a minimum of one guard at all times manning the front gate

outpost, whether it be to report sightings, warn members or greet allies. The front

gate post must have some form of physical cover to hide from invaders. A mountedgun would normally fit on this position for extra support.



pg. 9

The Watch Towers:

AS described before, a base should have a minimum of four watch towers,

one for eatch corner. one per each direction, North, South, West and East. The

duties of a tower guard are simple; look in their specefied direction and report Allsightings to the interior of the base via yelling. IF the guard deems an entity a

threat, he may fire a warning shot into the direction of the entity. If an imminentthreat is discovered, the guard may fire at will.



pg. 10

General Defense Rules:

The Base of Operations, As stated previously, needs to be defended at all

times and needs to be well stocked with food, water, ammunition and medical

supplies. A minimum of 5 Members are required to maintain watch, as well as anoptional garrison for backup. Your troops must be trained constantly to remain

ready and vigilant.

Upon any attack, all troops need to be notified immediately and readied for battle. If possible, line them along walkways built on the interior of the walls for a

height advantage. If surrounded, space troops evenly along the wall according to

skill and weaponry. The firepower should be spaced to supress from all angles.Pick targets wisely, look for high ranking officials who will be farther back, grunts

will usually be part of the main assault. If enemy machinegunners or special

weaponry such as energy weapons or artillery, alert a significant portion of thedefense to focus fire upon them, as they will disrupt the attack. Practice withvarious drills to test troop response time.

Remain behind cover at all times and rarely expose yourself. Time yourshots so that one person is always firing and the other is behind cover, this acts as

suppresive fire. The enemy will always be fired upon in this situation.

Communication between troops is crucial, select one troop to act as a messengerand another to act as a bandolier to distribute ammunition to those in need.

Utilize explosives constantly to disperse enemies behind cover and destroylight cover. If they have any machinery or robotics, use the nescessary explosives

or energy weapons to target them as normal ammunition will be renderedineffective.

Most of all: Communicate and remain calm.

Siege Defense: [Revert to Contingency Plan for additional details]

Under the circumstances your base is attacked with a military force large

enough to render your base enclosed or cut-off, siege defense tactics will need to

be initiated. In likelyhood, your enemies will have enough cover and mobilizationto wait your defense out. Siege tactics are much different then that of conventional

warfare. Chances are, your enemy will discontinue their fire upon you for moredemorilizing tactics.



pg. 11

When a siege is declared, the attack will more than likely slow down, andyour enemies will remain at a distance out of range of your weaponry, keeping an

ever vigilant eye on your headquarters. To use the term loosely, your attackers will

try to „wait you out‟ for signs of starvation, dehydration or mental fatigue.

To keep your enemies at bay, maintain a slow but present stream of fireupon the attackers. To elaborate, establish one troop to take „pot-shots‟ at theirgarrison to remind them of your presence. It is critical that food,water,ammunitionand supplies are rationed to the fullest extend as sieges can last months.

If possible, establish a messenger to communicate with the enemy troops todiscuss terms of diplomacy. Inside the base, keep entertained and light spirited. Do

not let the attack get to you as it will make the situation much worse when internal

affairs interfere.

If all fails, mount your troops for a counter assault when you feel the enemy

is most vulnerable, usually at night to maintain some stealth aspect.

Once again: Remain calm and comminicate.

PATROLLING

Often, small patrol groups will be sent in a close proximity to the exterior ofthe H.Q to patrol the surrounding area. It is up to the Founder and officials as to

when and how many will be sent in a specific duration or timeframe.

Patrols are used to establish your clamed territory and reporty findings,whether they be allied, neutral or hostile. On the occasion patrol groups encounter

hostile forces, they are to retaliate immediately unless the hostile force is of

overpowering nature. In that case, patrols are instructed to immediately return to base for a large scale-defense.

Patrol Routes and Formations:

Patrols are to remain in very close proximity to the base exterior in the caseof a large assault at hand. They are to travel in staggered groups, meaning if one



pg. 12

patrol is attacked, the subsequent can provide assistance on arrival. A typical patrol

will consist of minimum two troops to a maximum of four and should neverventure farther than 50 meters of the base radius.

Patrols are to travel in one of the following formations as each allow troopsto cover their patrol members while having a clear view of the wastes.
