I would choose my neighbor, cause hes a deuche. I would do this, because my plan would be to find the biggest explosive device I could, and suicide bomb the nearest invasion force I could find.

I've always wanted to go out with a bang.

I'd probably group with my Dad, two best friends, brother, and a friend who is a Sniper in the Marines. My Dad and one of my friends would make good point men plus my Dad knows about explosives, my other best friend and myself have alot of firearms experience (and between us own a small arsenal) and the Sniper, well I think that speaks for itself. I know a few other people with military experience so they might come in handy and be great assets. Raid Wal-Mart for ammo and maybe a few extra long guns, non-perishables, and other misc. stuff and we'd be in business.

I would welcome the invaders as liberators and throw flowers at their feet... afterall this is what we expect of the populace of the countries we invade.

Is the rail gun available? If so, I'll just camp out at the nearest respawn site.

I'd go straight to the French Ambassador and say "Honestly, we'll change the name back from Freedom Fries to French Fries if you guys will come and help us."

Group with? ****** that. I'd go solo. Pickup a Sniper Rifle and take out as many of the ****** as possible before they take me down.

Sure, my aim sucks. But with luck I'd be able to take out 1 or 2 before they get me. That is, as long as they aren't moving around to much. :p

I've got several friends/co-workers who'd band together almost instantly to fight back. Hell, we're already as close to a militia group as you can get, minus the enemy to fight. We probably wouldn't do any raids, but VT is fairly easy to defend, lots of mountains and places to hide, easy to fight an invading force with few people.

I would use the invasion as an oppertunity to call out my troops, meet at my secret underground lair and try to take over the world.

I would probably fight the invaders. Why? There's not point in dying unless you go out in style. I would take 2 of my good friends, 1 of which is in Marine Corps training, both of which are good with firearms. For weapons, I guess that I would have to be realistic here. Sure, if I could take any weapons I wanted for my group, I would get a 50-cal rifle, M249 SAW, an M4 and several explosive devices. Realistically, I would proabably get a shotgun for close-up work, a Beretta or Glock for a sidearm, and a .22 hunting rifle. You might ask "why the .22 rifle?" as 22-caliber rounds lack stopping power. The 22-caliber ammo is plentiful, lightwieght and let's face it, if you're trying to snipe, you're going for kill shot and not stopping power.

Things I would not do: Firstly, I wouldn't try to be the hero. The heroes usually die the quickest trying to show off. The second thing that I would not do is flock to a hospital, police station or other governmental institution. This is really a simple one, because if China invaded, those aformentioned places would be the first locations people would flock to. I would try and keep on the move, but able to defend structures at a moment's notice. The third thing that I would do is stay as incognito as possible. The invaders will tend to make a beeline for Rambo who decided to try and take out there base in his underwear armed with a rocket launcher than the guy minding his own buisness. Remember, if you get caught, you can't fight.

If you are caught, you can fight. If you are dead, you can't. But yea, I get your point.

um. the US would iwpe china with it;s army and I'm chinese. Theroetically if china had 34 million men invade, their navy would provide no support, being a power in the indian ocean dosent mean being a superpower in the pacific or atlantic against the US Atlantic and Pacific fleet. We are better trained, better armed and though we get war weary from the bodies piling up along the northern states(not a big enough navy for a sea borne assult) we'd come out victors.

saying that, i'd pair up with trustworthy spotter, probably charles if i had to pick a nonmilitary personell and get an a .50 Barrett with a Kahles 12xfor day ops, ATN MO4 for night ops and EOTech HOLOgraphic 512 with a ar15 for close range.

Yea. The whole British military in ranks isn't very effective anymore. No one does that much anymore though anyway.
