What would you do if your home town were being invaded by some foriegn country's military? Would you fight, and if so how? Would you run away, or would you just accept it and stay? In this scenario Your military isn't an available resource, and the government is non existant.
I might look into writing something about this, so I'm trying to see what most people would do.

I've often thought of this -- I live in Texas and I always wonder 'what if Mexico invaded' and basically Texas was occupied. I'd probably start a resistance movement; or get AIDS and move to Mexico City to infect the locals as personal revenge.

No question what I would do. I would lock and load. Next I pack all my camping gear on the horses {I myself have a herd of seven} including all the freeze dried yummies I have stashed {40 cases-enough for a year if we suppliment with wild game}.
There are a few of us who are well armed and have plenty of ammo, food, and medical supplies and we would defend our families to the death.
We would go "Red Dawn" on their asses if they ever found us hidden here in the mountains.We are well organized. Two of us are in the medical field, three are in law enforcement and have weapons that are not available to most people.
There are ex-military communication and demolition experts and millionaires with many resources among us.In my opinion, we stand the best chance of survival in the situation you describe.

Apologies. That comment was totally off-topic.
What could you do but surrender? They're an army with weapons, and you would just be civilians. Unless you can create a hell of a lot of Predator/Rambo style tree spike booby traps you'd be fucked.

In GB we'd probably do the same as we did in WW2, i.e., convert loads of factories into munitions plants and make a load of tanks and anti-aircraft guns. Hopefully we would be able to get hold of enough explosive. We've got a fairly small army, but we have top class air and naval power, so we could throw that around a bit. Silly to suggest there's no military or government though, cos that's never gonna happen.
We have to stay close buddies with America, which a lot of Brits seem to be opposed to for some reason. Personally I love the place.
I wonder how many people would fight to defend their country now... People are more selfish and questioning these days. In the 40's people just seemed to do it.
I think I would sign up, but only if the threat was clear and the cause was righteous. I could see myself getting stuck in if the Muslims ever have a pop in an effort to take over the world and impose Sharia law (good luck with that), but I'm not sure I could bring myself to mow down a load of Chinese or Russians coming invading the country to collect their debts. Would probably just give up and work in a sweatshop.
Or maybe I'm being naive and WW3 will be nuclear and rather short. Let's face it - a nuke could go off any time couldn't it? At least I don't have kids that I will watch die like they do in the playground in Terminator 2. Wouldn't it be ironic if Arnie ended up pushing the button? Though I guess this would be unlikely cos a nuke would probably be launched from a plane or ship. But he could give the order or something.
Go ahead do it!!

I'm not getting you to do my homework, I'm seeing if Citizens of first world countries know where to attain/ build weapons. Or if they can improvise tactics that would be effective against a modern military. Think of it more as a survey.

For those who would fight If you would try to go into more detail on how you would do it that would be helpful. I am trying to compare the ability of modernized 1st world nations populations to mount a guerilla war against an invader as opposed to 3rd world ones IE: Iraq/Afghanistan. It's for a promotion board, and I find the subject quite interesting really.
Thanks to those helping me out and fuck off to those who have nothing but shit to write.

so you want us to do your homework/qual for you even though there are TONS of books on guerilla warfare?

I would wait, at the city limits with my laptop and wireless internet. Show them your shitty posts, and explain that if they really wanted to invade something it should be your arse. As they jumped back into their choppers I would play Flight of the Bumblebee on WinAmp and wave at them through the dustcloud, secure in the knowledge that if you can't even protect an embassy from a bunch of mildly put-out Iranian students, DICKforce company from the African Congo Republic of We Own You Bitch will find germany a walk in the park, and your gaylord sentry arse a veritable picnic into sodomtown. You fuckwit.

He's probably plotting an invasion right now.

I live note far from the home of the British army, and we have shitloads of little bases around here, so I would gather resistance fighters, gather arms and vehicles and eliminate hostile buildings, dignitaries, leaders, etc and continue to build my army until we had enough fighters for a full scale assault against them.
Kinda "Red Dawn" esque?

Depends. If it was a first world country invading (Any of Scandinavia, Holland, Germany or Austria) I'd fucking switch sides immediately and fight to take down the Australian government, the puritan faggots.
If it was a third world shithole like Indonesia or the US invading, I'd sit back and let all the scum kill each other. Whichever country won couldn't manage the place worse than the current mob.

If you've played Prototype lately, you'll know where i'm coming from when i say:
I would hijack one of their tanks as they start spreading through the city,
I would then follow a few commands, and act as a friendly.
Then go hostile and destroy their vehicles one by one.
As to how to obtain the tank, i don't know. I just played the video game.
As to how to drive and load/shoot, i also don't know. As i said, (refer to answer one)
How to blow up other tanks and get away with all that..
Fuck it, on Prototype you can spawn blades and FUCK the military up.
In other words, i don't know... If that's real, you're fucked. Play it safe and gtfo!
