Already on site
A park cache, a mission compound, a homestead. It sits there through ordinary weeks, and it is still there the week the power, the water, or the road fails.
02 / RALLY POINT / NODE
Hold the site.
Rally Point is what you leave behind, or send in, when a place may have to look after itself. It makes water from the air, keeps a store of power, gives people a way to call out, and holds a sealed bay for the medical kit. You can park one where people already live and work. You can also put it on a parachute and drop it the day the road is no longer a road.
USE
Leave it there, or send it in
It is the same crate either way. One of them stays for the season. The other arrives under a chute when there is no time to convoy anything in. A park can keep one for visitors who get caught out. Missionaries can keep one at a station that is a long way from a hospital. Relief crews and humanitarian teams can drop one ahead of the trucks. A ranch with no well and a weak signal can keep one by the barn. Remote is just the address. The locker does not much care how you got there.
When the trucks cannot
Some relief cannot wait on a convoy. The locker comes down first, with water, power, a call out, and the medical bay, and it can announce itself or stay quiet until someone is close enough to use it.
