    joined. Not as long as

    Stupid QuestionStarted by:Frank_Smith, Dec/27/10 04:30 AM
    Trust me - there are stupid
    questions. When trying to save a
    breeched Outpost there are 3 basic
    actions as I see it. 1. Fight things
    in the Breech 2. Rebuild defenses 3.
    Run out into the jungle and kill
    monsters Which is the correct order
    to sav
