Survivors, zombies, and buildings

Suggestion description
I think that there should be a method of remaking or retying wires, such as those that secured warehouses in the distant past. This would make wirecutters useful again, as there would be wires to cut once more.

Since this is a very powerful ability, since zombies theoretically could not get in without help from a death cultist, I propose the following checks and balances.

1. This skill could be a subskill of Construction.
2. This skill could require the use of a toolbox, wirecutters, or both.
3. Wires could, after so many reties, become unable to be retied again. The message would be "There is no wire long enough to retie."
4. Wires could have strength values equivalent to those of an EHB building, and display deterioration messages.
5. In conjunction with the previous check, buildings tied with wires could be impossible to barricade, or only be lightly barricadable.
6. As a last resort, wirecutters could be usable by zombies, BUT be in the attack menu and have an accuracy penalty to be around 5-10%.

1. Kill I dislike voting spam unless it's utter crap. This isn't utter crap. Take it to the talk page and see what the hounds there say to do. ~A`Blue`Jelly^TME*V*I*L*_? 23:36, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
2. Kill - Below.--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 23:39, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
3. Kill - Good idea, take to talk page and see if you can make it better. --Blobdude^{Talk TM MC} 23:52, 19 November 2007
4. Workable - See above and top. BoboTalkClown 23:53, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
5. Kill?- As above, take it to the talk page! --Darth Lumis^{T! A! E! FU!} 00:14, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
6. Kill - Verging on dupe, maybe. But this is pretty awful. A nigh-free EHB would make a junkyard a huge boon to Survivors, and that is just bad. Not only that, after your idea goes through, in a month, the junkyards would be back to normal. Pretty lame, not to mention overpowered for a month. That and zombies cutting wires. What the shit? --Druuuuu 00:26, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
7. Kill - The suggestion is quite incomplete. Taking it to Talk:Suggestions would be a great help. --Z. slay3r •  Talk  00:40, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
8. Kill - Hay guys, let's make survivor barricading tactics even BETTER..... >.> --Trunksoul 03:39, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
