what long ranged weapon would you have?
-Dual Beretta 92FS, for when you need a pair of good basic pistols
-IMI Desert Eagle, need I say more?
-Micro Uzi, just in case I need pocket-sized automatic firepower
-Dual FN P90, I mean c'mon, those things are awesome
-XM8, cool gun and accepts STANAG mags AFAIK
-Steyr Scout Tactical, good-looking compact sniper rifle
-Barrett M99, it's like an M82 only not utt bugly
-MG42 w/ custom tungsten barrel to prevent overheating
-XM25 automatic grenade launcher
-SMAW w/ HEAA, HEDP and NE rockets
I'll need a power-assisted exoskeleton to carry all that stuff. Yes, all at once. Why do you ask?

what melee weapon?
Classic longsword, I've always wanted to wear one. Maybe if I take some training and become good, I'll make it a heron-mark blade. If possible, monofilament blade edge for maximum penetration capability.

what armor?
Lightweight power assisted exoskeleton to carry my arsenal, has to be able to detach weapons carrier module easily, also lends more power to my punches and sword swings. Maybe for heavy assaults some kind of WH40K-esque Space Marine suit, but I'd have to have custom weapons.

what kind of terrain is there?
Mainly urban warfare, with some large-scale pitched battles in the open and in rough terrain.

who would be the enemies?
For some reason this always tends to end up as a military junta that has coup'ed the American government. Otherwise aliens, but that's a whole 'nother ballpark, with a whole 'nother set of entries here.

how would you fight?
Use the weapon best suited to the situation and my current mood, e.g. there's a group of soldiers headed my way down an empty street I'll set up the MG42, if they're approaching from long distance I'll use one of the sniper rifles, if they're holed up in a building I could bring the entire thing down with a SMAW NE, or use the XM25 to clear the windows before storming in, using either the XM8, or the P90s, or the longsword. Generally I'll try to pick fights I can win easily, by making sure I understand the situation.

all kinds of terrain is more fun,but which is your favorite? or,please be specific saying what kinds there are.

as for your enemies,highly approved.
Hmmm thats a good question....my favourite...tempted to say urban, but it's a haven for snipers and as much as i like laying in wait for my target...scares the hell outta me that they'd be doin it too.

However since its civilians we'll go with urban!

For anyone else It'd have to be a mountainous area of the scottish highlands. Nothin like fighting on your home turf.
again,your post is highly approved. :)

what melee weapon?

what armor?

what kind of terrain is there?

who would be the enemies?

how would you fight? (stealth,up front,more long range,brawn,strategy)

the weapons can be space agey just so you know. lightsabers,plasma blasters,laser watches.

here's mine.

long range: AK74 (it exists,i checked!)

melee: Sica (curved gladiator sword)

armor: viking hat,spartan chest,knight leggings,and a normal shirt.

terrain: I'd fight in a nice barren landscape. probably a desert with a couple mountains.
Or perhaps a jungle,for a stealth advantage.

enemies: aliens,zombies,demons,Nazis,ninjas,and last but not least,the Spetsnaz. (Russian equivalent to Green Beret)

how: more stealth

EDIT: do NOT say you would run. i wanna know what you say!

EDIT no 2: NO MORE NUKES
Why do people who make these posts assume that if they were put in a video game like situation they themselves would become indestructible one man armies?
because i'd like to see what you post.

Well said, sir. You're a role model for our fighting men.

Well, if I had to go to war, it would be because I'd been called up, so I'd be wearing M/90 field uniform, body armour M/94 and carrying an AK5... But I guess that's not quite what the OP meant...

what long ranged weapon would you have? I know this is nerdy, but I really would have to go with a 40k Space Marine Bolter

what melee weapon? Massive chainsaw, but with robotics to lift it easily

what armor? Again, Space Marine armour

what kind of terrain is there? Trenches, Lots of Trenches

who would be the enemies? Switzerland. Their damn neautrality really irks me :p

how would you fight? Imagine if Hannibal Lecter wore the stuff I described and played with the mentality of a Pro TF2 Pyro

Well first of all you wouldn't get to choose they would assign you to rifleman, submachine gunner, shotgunner, etc but if i got to choose i'd choose

Long range: KM UMP, MP5, and the Desert eagle, Flintlock pistol (mainly for show)

Melee: Two one hand axes, one hand sword (extra weapon), shield, and dagger ( with poison)

Armor: Some type of Bullet proof armor under something light such as chainmail

Terrain: Artic, desert, and grasslands

Enemies: Jonas brothers, Everyone doing the twilight movies, coke lovers (the soda), and Hannah Montana

Fighting style: I would try to use stealth but not sure that would go well with axes, a sword , and shield lol but the dagger would be alright.

Long range: M4A1 assault rifle with silencer/flash suppressor

Melee: Bowie knife

Armor: If you mean body armor Ceramic armor with a Kevlar helmet, now if you mean that in the sense of a vehicle the M1 Abrams Tank

Terrain: if I don't have the tank forest if I do have have the tank farmland.

Enemies: Don't know Don't care

Fighting Style: Since I happen to be alone guerilla tactics would be my choice, that way I can take on a larger force without getting killed.

what long ranged weapon?
I would take a rocket launcher because I can't drive a tank by myself and I wouldn't want to fight a tsnk without one...

what melee weapon?
I'd bring a thomahawk, because it is also a useful tool

what armor?
The bullet proof kind

what kind of terrain is there?
I'd take artic so my armour could be insolated

who would be the enemies?
Americans! (Try and take our northpole will you?!/)

how would you fight?
Without a tank or snow mobile I'd take stealth because its the only option

IF I were in a war I would have,

Good ole' M14 Rifle
A tomahawk...you heard me.
As for armor, just a good helment and tactical b.r. vest for holding all my bullets.
The terrain would be massive delapidated urban sprawl.
My enemies would be religious fanatics who think their god protects them from bullets...I would prove them very wrong.
I would do the hit-and-run thing when offensive, and stealhy sniping when I'm defensive.
