Original Idea
Please note that this was my original proposition on the Detulux Inc forums for MEAR, and I have posted it here for those who are not cool enough to have access
Military Evacuation Assistance Radio (MEAR)
Ive decided to create a volunteer run radio channel dedicated to updating survivors on the latest news pertaining to zombie movements in certain suburbs. If you have read World War Z, this is the same idea as the Ham radio operators that notify the reformed Air Force of downed pilots, except this is to notify all pro-survivor groups, and lone survivors of major zombie movements. Currently, this would be pertaining mainly to the Big Bash, but since major zombie movements only happen during certain times, MEAR would only operate during Big Bashes, and Mall Tours. Emergency times could be established, if major Pker events are occurring. The reason it would be volunteer run, is that it would not necessarily be a group, except during certain times. And even then, the "members", so to speak, would be nomads, following the hordes and reporting on widely used radio channels (29.80, 29.60, etc.) of survivors. This could possibly save many survivors from becoming trapped be hordes, or being overrun while sleeping. The reason I am posting this here (since it is also a pet project of mine), I wish that some of Detulux Inc's more "organized" members might wish to assist in this operation, and maybe even the boss will approve MEAR as the official Detulux Inc radio? That might be asking too much, but its worth a shot at any rate. This project would involve two parts:
Information, and Evacuation.
Information: Gathering as much possible intelligence based on the hordes current and future targets (forts, PDs, hospitals, major points of interest, etc.), and turning that gathered information into easy messages that can be sent via radio to many listeners. The idea behind this, is that if people know they are about to be attacked, then they can evacuate using River Tactics, and possibly plans created by MEAR operators themselves. With this in mind, we come to evacuation.
Evacuation: Since MEAR is dedicated to saving civilian life, operators could create effective evacuation plans for each suburb leading to a guaranteed safe zone, in at LEAST 30 AP. Now, I know that is a practical pipe dream as show by the recent NW Siege, which had no safe areas in a 5x5 suburb area. With this in mind, these plans could only be initiated in high profile sieges, while the coordinates of MEAR maintained safe houses could be broadcasted during Mall Tours, and Big Bashes, so civilians have a safe place to sleep and continue on their way.
If MEAR was to become an actual group, they would of course have to have an HQ, which I would actually choose the 2 square power station of Tolman Power Station. I know that this is on the extreme east side of Malton, but it would give an excellent central operations point for the area. With this in mind, if MEAR was to create a big enough volunteer base, I would consider having to leave Detulux Inc and going there full time (but as this is a pet project, I have some doubts).
My reasons for this idea, is based on my affinity towards radio broadcasting, and my eagerness to help other survivors. This would also become an excellent group, on par with DEM if enough people decided that they would like to operate radios, and be in the danger area. I personally would like to go full time with this project, but as I currently have a life contract with Detulux (punishable by death if broken), I cannot without explicit approval by the most humble and great Boss.
If you have any suggestions, leave them here. I have a wiki up, so you can comment on the discussion page also. Let me know what you think Boss.
