RE: "The Watchmen"
I agree you need people you can rely on but I don't agree that even with the best will in the world and the best perimiter security, you can gaurantee 100% that an intruder will not get away to return later.
How big is your BOL? Lets say you have an area 100 feet across. Thats an immediate perimeter of over a hundred yards. Suppose you dig a moat / spear pit 3 feet wide and the same deep. At a conservative 1 ton per cubic yard thats over 100 tons of soil to shift!
Trip wires would cover the distance but then you either need a lot of closely set devices or a few devices and more wire.
Its 3am and you are asleep after a busy day setting your trip wires. Baddie wanders into one of your trip wires and there is a loud noise. He immediately turns and runs like hell. You wake, gather your wits and a wepeon and then head in the direction of the alarm. Takes maybe one minute maybe two. A fit baddie could be over a quarter of a mile away in that time and the chances of finding him are very limited. Considder that against having 3 men on stag with the same trip alarms and spaced 35 yards apart. The max distance for a sentry to engage baddie is now 17.5 yards. The chances of baddie escaping are now very limited. Just need some reliable sentries.
