   Danum Valley Field Centre

   Institutional Compound

   Danum Valley Field Centre is strongest on Population Capacity 9/10 — Documented 48-bed hostel blocks, additional rooms/camping and a dining hall around 70 covers provide direct accommodation and service headroom far above the fixed twenty-person group.. Its clearest scored constraint is Defensibility 2/10 — The centre is a research/accommodation compound rather than a fortified site. Restricted access, a controlled private-road approach and ordinary secureable buildings provide some real protection, but no hardened perimeter, breach-resistant gates or compartmentalised fallback are established at the occupied compound. Remoteness is not double-counted as defence..

   Batad Rice Terraces

   Elevated Stronghold

   Batad Rice Terraces is strongest on Population Capacity 8/10 — An inhabited village with traditional houses and a resident workforce far exceeding twenty provides clear community-scale physical capacity. Rugged circulation and storm vulnerability keep it below large modern-settlement capacity.. Its clearest scored constraint is Defensibility 2/10 — Batad's steep bowl and terraced slopes hinder movement, but the canonical Base is an open agricultural village and landscape rather than a fortified perimeter. Twenty people cannot seal the extensive terraces and paths..

   Banda Neira

   Remote Settlement

   Banda Neira is strongest on Population Capacity 8/10 — A compact island town supporting about 7,675 residents provides extensive housing, commercial/service space and community infrastructure compared with twenty survivors.. Its clearest scored constraint is Defensibility 1/10 — The canonical Base is the whole inhabited island/town rather than Fort Belgica. Its coastline, port and public streets do not form a continuous defensible perimeter for twenty people, so historical fortifications are not allowed to inflate the island-wide score..
