If this must be, however, bear in mind that the enemy has picked the place and time of the confrontation. They are at an advantage before it is begun.
Perhaps some clever tactician can formulate a strategem to make it necessary for them to find you. They need you.
I suggest a somewhat adjacent gathering of FReepers--close enough that they are aware of you; far away enough that they must relocate their assets to engage. You get to pick the backdrop for the cameras; you get to choose the ground from which they must assail. High spots are best for your enterprise. Having your backs to a wall or building prevents the pictures, taken by sympathetic press at the near front of your assemblage while panning the opposition, from showing fewer than the actual mass of your numbers. The situation thus, your message will redound off the wall and be more loudly heard. There must be a socialists protest manual from which other nifty ideas can be borrowed?
Godspeed n' all that.
