The Walking Dead, Survival Rule Of The Week: Four ways to fight a hostile invasion

#3: Keep them distracted and cover your tracks.

If hostiles invade, especially if you haven’t planned ahead, you’ll have a limited time to react or escape. Whichever you choose, your first priority is ensuring that you and your group don’t get hurt in the process.

To ensure that your invaders have other things on their minds than killing people, you need to provide them with those other things.

If you can create some kind of distraction — something loud, something big, and preferably, something dangerous — it will hopefully force them to divide their forces and buy you time.

In the event you can’t provide a distraction, you might be better suited creating something to hide your escape. Smoke will probably be your best bet in this scenario, as it will make you harder to see, as well as provide them with a distraction.

Obviously any attempt to repel invaders must first have someone to do the repelling. If your enemies can’t see you, or are too busy dealing with other things to attack you, that gives you a chance to fight another day.
