First off the picture wont load,,with out knowing things like the terrain,, amount of ammo,,available shooting points, preparation around the house( booby traps,early warning, final line of defense[foo-gas}) things like that,, a realistic answer is impossible. I have thought about it before though and having been in real defensive situations before, I have a good idea of how to set up a defensive postion. But I sure hope it never comes to that, because contrary to movies, the bad guys do ocassionally hit their targets too, (wife,child,friend etc)

Much as i also like the thought of holein' up in one room then just blasting them as they walk through the door in single file, i think we all know this is the surest way to fail.
I am the leader of the 50+ guys, shotguns and pistols throughout eh? Ohwell, once we've breached the perimeter with no resistance and determined that Airborne420's family are all in one room, one entrance - i send a few guys in to storm the room, blind firing - hey, maybe they die! Rethink; plan a) 10 men outside wall, up to window of laundry room. 10 men go through to garage or shower in master bathroom - open up simultaneously with everything they've got - be it .45 or 12 ga slugs, you are going to have enough penetration through plasterboard/wooden walls (especially the internal wall) to turn that laundry room red, minimal risk to my own men too. Sandbags or not, once a few luckies get through, (maybe hit the children or your wife?) you are not going to be in the best condition to tackle a proper frontal storm of the room, if that's what it resorts to in the end. Hey, i've got an even better idea!
Plan b) Longguns on point to cover door and window exits from room, throw in the petrol (which you'd stockpiled in the garage according to the scenario briefing) and match! You've got a choice of how you die this time!
You're just backing into a corner, i could be finished in ten minutes, let alone an hour and i wouldnt need anything like 50 men to do it with. Think again 420.

Gosh - sounds like a communist/socialist utopia! Except that there are some stubborn folk that are prepared and equipped to resist that is.

Long after the fall out has what? Circled the earth for decades in the jetstream?Originally posted by LAK:

Along with the nuclear winter effects?
Maybe if you are deep inside Cheyenne Mountain you could survive. As long as you didnt take a direct hit. Or you are so deep into the Canadian wilderness or the Australian outback, that danger from burned and dying gangs is non-existant. But wait, you still have that pesky radioactive rain and nuclear winter to deal with. So, I'd rather waste my planning on the possible that could happen than on "Mad Max" scenarios. I'll leave those to Hollywood.
