ah yes, have a fort but keep the power generation and storage outside. mmm hmm. but hey, keep the "cattle field" inside, i'm sure that's enough "cattle field".

The cattle field can sustain maybe one half of a cow.

0.5 cattle / turn

And you know this person is the type whose entire personality is eating meat, so it’s extra funny to me.

Don't even wanna imagine if they actually know or have the labor smarts to slaughter and then butcher an entire cow carcass, cuss that's on avg a half ton creature you have to move around.

If that tractor has the capacity for hydraulic implements it's not particularly difficult to pull off. If you wanna get really lazy, I've watched someone skin a deer with compressed air, which I'd bet that machine shop has. It's a bit disturbing, but damn, if it wasn't the fastest I've seen someone skin one.

I also noticed the power thing like "damn, it'd be a shame if someone sabotaged that power center"

actually Walled cities typically had fruit orchards and sometimes vegetable plots inside their walls. Everything else was grown outside (and for larger cities most vegetables and fruits too).
