I don't understand why you guys are such faggots. DEAL WITH IT. The establishmnet is done. David Brock hasn't done shit but waste money for 2 years.

This help? I mean if the nukes go flying burger is cooked but atleast it helps a little for immediate evacuation/bug out.
Jacob Martinez
We are going to barricade the continent and shot invaders at sight.

I honestly would love to just move out to some remote island in the Southern hemisphere and live self sufficiently with maybe a few others. The Pitcairn Islands seems like a perfect place. Tristan de Cunha or Beauvais Island also work
Hunter Miller
You should see the other guy!
Christian Myers
All that i know is that i live in a very valuable place. I believe that the biggest worry for me/our population would be that it would be used as a staging area for an invasion of north america. We wouldn't be directly attacked because our resources (oil, uranium, iron, silver, gold, water, etc) are too valuable and the location for a "first boots on the ground" scenario is too good to pass up. I'm sure that whoever would be advancing on Canada/the US would try, and fail, to take us as slave labour as well - we'd all die fighting to defend the shitty little island that we call home.
We'll be telling our grandchildren all about the great battle for St. John's.
God guard thee, Newfoundland.

Currently looking for Nuke maps of countries other than US but I can't find any.

>Survival plans
Drinkin. Its pretty much like regular survival shit. Fallout is surprisingly over-rated. Throw in biological and then you've got me worried.
Julian Smith
Yep. Makes you wonder. Might find one for UK.
Kevin Gutierrez
Do you really think that A.)There would even be a point of invading eachother after the entire Western Hemisphere is glassed over fallout and B.)That Russia, China or otherwise could invade North America across thousands of miles of open ocean?
Jackson Campbell
how safe are we
Adrian Jackson
>you cant invade and occupy irradiated territories
lol
Isaiah Long

Dominic Baker
>Two Cities >Entire Countries
Seems like a false analogy
Thomas Howard
Yes and yes. Personally i dont think that any capable country is willing to lob bombs all willy nilly. This shit is about territory and control, just like any other war. There may be a handful of atomic bombs dropped in strategic locations but i feel something like an EMP would be widely used to knock out everything we control so that whoever is attacking could essentially waltz in unhindered to clean up the mess and take whatever is left.
Thats just my two cents, but then again, we dont really know how this shit will play out until it happens, right? :^)
Julian Wood
Found this
Cooper Flores
Well yea, we are discussing possibilities. It is a fair question to think about. How would the rest of ww3 play out after all the nukes are spent..
Alexander King
Way too risky. If it's at the point where nukes are launched, you're throwing every goddamn nuke, bomb, and firecracker at the other side because of how much you want to make sure you damage their ability to do the same to you. No amount of possible gains are worth the risk. Better to crater anything even remotely threatening in a nuclear scenario than risk taking it intact.
There will never be a scenario between nuclear powers where "a handful" are exchanged. It's a fight to the death.
Gavin Lewis
looks like they'd be ok, honestly

completely serious
nukes are ~75 years old. the weapons that will actually decide ww3 will destroy civilization as we know it.
aim high for survival
Cameron Reyes
>looks like they'd be ok Most of Russia is empty. Those few places are where the people actually live.
Henry Lee
I think that either side would opt to completely disable the oppositions technological capabilities and capture the territory for rebranding rather than drop a-bombs on every significant target. Sure a-bombs will destroy the enemy but you're essentially sealing your fate as well once you give the order to send them over. Everyone dies and everything is destroyed leaving little to nothing for those who remain. What would be the point of that?
But again, thats just the uneducated opinion of a bumblefuck newfie.
Noah Morgan
It's called Mutually Assured Destruction or M.A.D. It basically means that if I'm going down you're going down with me.
Jacob Thompson
Yes i know what that is but i truly believe that no current leader wants that. It doesn't help them get to their endgame goal, does it? Again man, these wars are all about territory and control. MAD doesn't ensure either of those for either side.
Jack Gutierrez
>I think that either side would opt to completely disable the oppositions technological capabilities And the best way to do that is disintegration with nukes. Nobody is going to take a chance on a half-measure.
You're saying that two guys with guns would agree to only stabbing each other in the hopes that the other guy doesn't use his gun.
Ryan Green
Siberia stronk!
Aiden Lopez
American theory. Its why we dropped doing civil defense preps. Other nations still do it all since they have other views on it. Part of what "sold" MAD was blowing up fallout scares, nuke winters, etc. mostly horseshit.
Justin Hughes
My guess is pretty good. Still looking for maps and could use help. Just found this: >Still can't find a map of what US/Nato would nuke
Charles Anderson
>greater Chile You can't make this shit up!!! I'm fucking dying!!!! >kek
Blake Powell
> Its why we dropped doing civil defense preps
It's also because we have two massive oceans and two extremely weak neighbors. When have we ever done "Civil Defense Prep"?
Robert Rodriguez
Only cockroaches would survive the nukes so it makes sense. Them and the Kebabs would rein supreme
Jose Martin
its all cold war stuff. Interesting bit about Russian nukes atthe time was they weren't particularly good with precision so they built bigger nukes, like the kind they showed on parades. The idea was close is good enough with nukes.
Robert Gomez
50s 60s 70s they still taught a lot of it, did drills, had fallout shelter signs everywhere and publicized what the sirens would sound like.
some of the shelters can still be found if you're into that kind of shit
Christopher Price
Interesting. Found this article, seems to cover the basics well
Back in 50s 60s the bombs were weaker, shorter range. We make fun of duck and cover now, but back in the 50s the scenario was short-range small nukes used like artillery or strategic bombs with a horde of Russians following swiftly after to clean up. They'd have to quickly go through Canada or mount the attack from, say, Cuba for that to work. Difficult at best.
70s the bombs were bigger and intercontinental and much more precise. The math changed. Because of that, diplomacy finally got serious in the 80s.
Now we've got state actors who will not necessarily respond rationally. Take Iran, for example. If they fully believe they can hasten Armageddon on the 12th Imam etc then what leverage do you have? If they launch ONE you bomb them to Hell, 0 to 50 instantly, because there is no incentive you can offer for them to stop.
I don't know if the same is true for NK. Might just be. I'm pretty sure when a country joins the club they get a series of very interesting phone calls explaining reality in stark terms.

Why not stick to southern cone? You have to defend a sick ass long coast if you conquer the entire continent.
Matthew Bennett
>Back in 50s 60s the bombs were weaker, shorter range
Its the opposite...nukes were bigger to compensate for less accuracy.ICBMs had warheads in the MT range (9-20Mt).Today the warheads are smarter and much smaller like 150 to 350 kt.
Hudson Barnes
Im in Scotland out of the range of obvious nuke target sites. May get some of the fallout though. Will probably raid as much as I can before people start going feral then find a good spot for a farm somewhere out of the way. Any idea about land and water safety if it's been affected by fallout?
Jordan Wood
go easy on the new-queers, they don't understand how things work here
Thomas Diaz
it's a good idea, shh
Nicholas Ortiz
If there is a war between the USA and Russia, I have about an 80% chance of not being nuked here in Tbilisi (no longer on US/NATO target lists and not considered a threat to Russia - or China). Even if Russia is heavily nuked, including close by, my fallout shelter (part of our basement and even an old Cold War one down the street) would only be needed for a week and would not need to be very heavily shielded. Life in the South Caucasus would only become interesting if the Russian survivors attempted to grab the arable land here, which they would likely not have the population or forces to manage after a full exchange. Either way, my plan is to listen to and broadcast on my shortwave, see what's the least unstable place and head there once the fallout conditions subside and pockets of lingering radiation are mapped reliably. Frankly? I think it will be in lower South America, aside from Peru, Paraguay or Brazil.
I would expect Australia would take one or two on the chin, and perhaps NZ too. You don't get to be part of the big 5 snooping system and not have Russia or China shit a few fuck yous your way, nuke-free or not.
