Defense

You are holding ground. This page runs the process — fortify, then stand. For the full explanation, see the Playbook entry.

STEP 1 — PREPARATION

Fortify

Click each item as you confirm it. Phase I is not preparation for Defense — it is Defense.

STEP 2 — HOLDING

Stand Ground

Phase I is complete. Pressure arrives. Brace. Deny entry. Absorb force. Hold. The position is the objective.

STEP 3 — WHAT COMES NEXT
