GENERAL SURVIVAL GUIDELINES1-11 General Survival GuidelinesIn the event of a worldwide catastrophe, emergency services will be stretchedbeyond their limit. There are simply not enough resources to look after everyone.Do not expect rescue.Any stockpiles the authorities may have will be depleted quickly, and more thanlikely will be distributed between greedy powers before you get a look in.It is up to YOU to ensure the survival of you and your loved ones.1.1 PLANNING YOUR SURVIVALIn your survival strategy, do not make huge plans. Large operations are likely to be noticeableto others and there will be many who will not take steps for their own survival. Do notadvertise your plans and limit your group to people you know – family and friends. Even if youdon't get along with certain family members, at least you will be with people you know.1.1.1 CHOICE OF LOCATIONWhether you have a remote property, plan to purchase one or to simply bug out at the lastminute, research your location well. First choose a location that is far away from large citycentres. When broad disaster strikes, people wander - even when they don't know where theyare wandering to. City centres will be death traps and citizens will pour from them in largenumbers. There will be a lot of starvation, desperation, confusion and fear. A stampede ofscared, hungry people through your community will not do anyone any good.A rule of thumb is to be 150 km (100 mi) from coastlines or more. Tsunamis can wash waterover huge areas of land in a very short time. The power of moving water is immense and easyto underestimate, even when it is not very deep. Choose high ground, at least 20 m (60 ft)higher than the average surrounding level. Rivers can swell and floodplains will flood.As well as being higher than the surrounding area, you should be about 200 m (600 ft) abovesea level. This is the estimated rise in sea levels if the polar caps should melt.Weather patterns as they stand today cannot be relied upon – even now the weather ischanging quicker than experts can predict. Therefore you should consider the possibility ofnear constant downpour or drizzle in your area. Constant rainfall can liquefy soil, filling the airpockets with water and turning it into a type of quicksand. Coupled with jiggling, rumblingearthquakes, a solid bunker can sink completely into saturated soil, with you in it. Theunderlying ground should therefore be solid bedrock, and of course, not near a fault line.1.1.2 TRAVELLINGWhen you need to travel it is best to keep a low profile. If you have a working vehicle and roadtravel is still possible, take the back roads. If asked, do not announce your plans ordestination; say you are on a ‘camping trip’ or ‘visiting relatives’. If you are on foot, you canfollow a main road without travelling on the road itself. Keep yourself well hidden at a distanceof 20-100 metres or so, depending on the cover available.Avoid large gatherings of people. If you are well stocked with survival gear and food, there willbe people who feel they deserve your gear more than you do, and will not be kind about it.1.2 THE MANAuthorities should generally be avoided. This includes government, military and lawenforcement. When panic hits, the structure and rules of society will no longer apply and youcannot assume the police will protect you. Members of the establishment are people too andwill be just as scared and confused as everyone else, except they will probably be betterarmed and more trained than you. Even if you are well armed and proficient with firearms, thelast thing you and your family need is a gunfight.In the confusion and panic, military units may turn rogue, with no fear of the consequences.Remember, those in authority with a heart will most likely be AWOL looking after theirfamilies, not roaming in armed gangs. Do not approach these groups. Signalling techniqueswill NOT be discussed in this guide. Keep your head down.DOOM SURVIVAL GUIDE
1-2GENERAL SURVIVAL GUIDELINES1.2.1 SURVIVOR CAMPSYou may come across survivor camps set up by the government or military. These camps willoperate under the pretence that you will work in exchange for food, shelter and medical care.Depending on your country, government and the individuals running the camp, they will rangefrom genuine humanitarian operations to full blown slave camps.Your possessions will be confiscated and distributed. You may not be allowed to leave and ifyou do manage to escape it will be by the skin of your teeth with little to no equipment.Conditions will degrade quickly as stores are depleted without incoming replacements. Youcannot assume those running the camp will be fair. Such a situation may even lead tocannibalism when the stores become depleted.1.3 FOODDo not rely on a large hoard of goods. Depending on your location and local government,martial law may be declared. One of the first things that will happen in such a situation is thatuseful civilian goods will be seized and redistributed, rendering your stockpiling efforts useless.Neighbours may notice you buying unusually large amounts of goods ahead of time and willremember when they are starving. If you are raided by looters, packaged dry goods are easyto take and you will be left with nothing.It is advisable to start a garden and raise animals such as poultry and fish ahead of time. Sucha setup is not suspicious and will keep producing when well tended. It will be far better for youthan highly salted survival food anyway. It will be difficult and time consuming for thieves toharvest and is unlikely that they will clean you out. Deploy booby traps at your own discretion.If you are not in a position to start farming you will need to know how to live off the newlandscape. Traps and snares for animals and fish are effective, quiet and relatively easy to setup. Many wild plants can be eaten but care must be taken with identification.Do not be scared to eat small critters like bugs and worms. These are highly nutritious andeven favourable in many countries. They are also abundant in most places.1.3.1 SEEDSSeeds should be stored in areas that are cool, dark and dry. Some seeds last longer thanothers but should be viable for at least twelve months or more. Most seeds need time whenthey come off a plant to ‘cure’ before they can be germinated. This can range from days tomonths.Keep a varied stock of many types of seeds. You can’t assume your climate will remainunchanged and you may be surprised at which food will grow. If you are having troublecultivating certain types of plant then wait until the weather changes otherwise you will burnthrough your entire seed stock.Seeds can be eaten raw but this is not advised. Commercial seeds are guaranteed togerminate via hormones and chemicals. Good for plants, not so good for humans. Some seedsare naturally poisonous and this can vary between seasons. Seeds that may be good to eat inspring may be lethal in winter. Unless you are an expert, or a gambler, DO NOT EAT SEEDS. Atthe very least you will be trading future nourishment for a small amount of nourishment now.1.4 WATERWater is one of the most important survival needs. You will need an endless supply of cleanwater for drinking, cooking and personal hygiene.1.4.1 CONTAMINATION OF TRADITIONAL WATER SOURCESIf you are near a flowing river or in an area of constant rainfall you may think you have all thewater you need. However, chemical spills, acid rain, volcanic ash and many other factors canaffect the quality of water. Commercial water filters can remove bacteria (0.22 micron, or 220nm pore size) and even viruses (0.02 micron or, 20 nm pore size) but may not removedangerous chemicals or heavy metals. Rain and groundwater can be contaminated with leadyet be completely clear and tasteless.Clean water can be collected from condensation from cold surfaces, morning dew, or fromplants but these methods take a long time to yield a small amount of water.DOOM SURVIVAL GUIDE
GENERAL SURVIVAL GUIDELINES1-31.4.2 SEAWATERSea water should never be drunk straight under any circumstances. The body uses more waterthan it gains from the seawater to remove the salt. Dinking nothing but seawater can kill youin a matter of hours.1.4.3 DISTILLATIONThe safest solution for any water source is distillation.Be aware that drinking distilled water in a long term situation can leach nutrients from yourbody. There are many means by which to replace essential nutrients such as vitamin pills, orbetter yet, a varied diet.Another method is to add a small amount of seawater to all the water you drink. You shouldalmost be able to taste the salt.1.5 SHELTEREven if you have a strong bunker which survives the cataclysms, it will probably not suffice forthe long term unless it is huge. If it is huge then you probably have enough money to havehad people looking after you for a long time now and are not even reading this.For most, shelter will have to be rebuilt. Shelter can be built from natural materials, and scrapmaterials you may find. Simple tee-pee and lean-to style huts may be adequate or largerstructures constructed from wood, stone, mud-brick or anything else you can find.The larger the structure the more time and resources will need to be dedicated towardsbuilding it so ensure the immediate needs of your group are met first.Natural occurring shelters such as caves should be avoided if you have experienced largeearthquakes in your area. More may be coming and even a small aftershock can entomb you indarkness.Underground SheltersIt is not advisable to build a completely underground shelter. Whether it is dug into dirt, clay,granite, the side of a mountain or whatever. A quaking earth can tear a structure apart andbury you. The less you are buried the better chance of your survival. A shelter that is partiallydug into the ground – for stability, and partially above-ground is ideal.A sloped or rounded roof will drastically reduce the risk of damage from strong winds. This canbe built up cheaply from dirt. It will provide both protection from strong wind and insulation.1.6 SURVIVAL KITSYour survival kit may be large if you are staying put on a property, medium if you aretravelling in a vehicle (or many people on foot) or a single person rucksack and whatever youcan fit in your pockets. Below is a guideline only. Your kits will vary based on need.1.6.1 BASIC SURVIVAL KITThis pack will weigh at least 15 kg until the food and water start to be depleted. Therefore thepack itself should be sturdy. It doesn’t have to be fancy, just strong. Pack it so it lays flat onyour back because you might be carrying it for some time. Include plastic bags and sheeting tokeep the contents dry. You may be travelling in the rain indefinitely.Your basic survival kit should include — This book and another small book on the wild foods in your area. Have any maps of yourarea you think may be necessary, but be prepared for terrain changes. 5 or more litres of clean water. This is not nearly enough but it is hard to carry more. Beprepared to replenish it. Note that cargo pants can hold a litre bottle in each pocket. As much food as you can carry. Highly compact food such as rice, flour, dehydratedvegetables, instant mash potato, porridge oats, spaghetti etc. Stock cubes are small andadd nutrients. Peanut butter is good to mix with rice and is excellent bait for traps. Expectto carry at least 5kg of food alone. Multivitamins should also be included. First aid kit, see Basic First Aid Kit
