Do want Edit: The towers could use some muder holes .  All it needs is a moat and dungeon.   |

Less ground floor windows Agreed. I love the idea of this though. |

Needs remote miniguns on the towers, laser sweeps, and some mortar support with gas and smoke ordinance. Lower windows are good false entry points to the killing floors.

Less ground floor windows Moat. Drawbridge. Castellated redoubts. Murder holes. Fine Sherry and a pipe while the battle rages. |

Less ground floor windows Moat. Drawbridge. Castellated redoubts. Murder holes. Fine Sherry and a pipe while the battle rages. Good ideas, but in all seriousness, if you build an average size home with ICFs or Concrete SIPs you will have a pretty bullet proof/fireproof house at the least (also metal roof ftw). I'd even go with standard SIPs (2x OSB with an 8-12 in sandwich of iso foam) and an outer brick/stone facing and it should stop 7.62. I've seen some nice hurricane proof shutters in South Florida that can be locked on the inside so you can still have ground level windows. I do like the German (??) Hurricane proof windows the gal in NOLA got though. |
