Choose a weapon/vehicle etc from Science Fiction to aid a war effort.

[Communist partisan]

As the first post says: death star.

It exist plenty of planets.

 

[Fuselage]

The Normandy, SR-2.
Hopefully Shepard is on board with his crew of all the awesome people.

 

[Naeo]

If Sovereign, from Mass Effect, is technically a weapon, then him. Or really any reaper.

If that doesn't count, then probably one of the alien weapons from District 9.

[Paksenarrion]

A General Motors Bolo of the Line.

MK XX Bolo (Tremendous):

"All right, Unit DNE of the line. Why did you do it? This is your Commander, Unit DNE. Report! Why did you do it? Now, you knew your position was hopeless, didn`t you? That you`d be destroyed if you held your ground, to say nothing of advancing. Surely you were able to compute that. You were lucky to have the chance to prove yourself."
For a minute I thought old Denny was too far gone to answer. There was just a kind of groan come out of the amplifier. Then it firmed up. General Bates had his cupped behind his ear, but Denny spoke right up.
"Yes, sir."
"You knew what was at stake here. It was the ultimate test of your ability to perform correctly under stress, of your suitability as a weapon of war. You knew that. You knew that General Margrave and old Priss Grace and the press boys all had their eyes on every move you made. So instead of using common sense, you waded into that inferno in defiance of all logic-and destroyed yourself. Right?"
"That is correct, sir."
"Then why? In the name of sanity, tell me WHY! Why, instead of backing out and saving yourself, did you charge? .....Wait a minute, Unit DNE. It just dawned on me. I`ve been underestimating you. You KNEW didn`t you? Your knowledge of human psychology told you they`d break and run, didn`t it?"
"No, sir. On the contrary, I was quite certain that they were as aware as I that they held every advantage."
"Then that leaves me back where I started. Why? What made you risk everything on a hopeless attack? Why did you do it?"
"For the honor of the regiment."

Year 2796, Deng Conflict. Field Test.

What is this from? I want to read it now. (If it's a book, otherwise replace "read" with the appropriate verb)

OT: I would probably go with the Trooper II Cyborgs from the book "The Legion of The Damned". They can engage anything from infantry to fighter craft, and win.

It's a series of books about the Dinochrome Brigade. The original author is Keith Laumer, but other authors, such as David Weber, have added to it.

Sentient, high technology planetary siege engines with the personalities of Paladins.

I'm not really the type to use toys, but for a Bolo, I would make an exception.

..although, it would probably remind me not to use it as a means to an end in a firm but courteous baritone.

 

[FortheLegion]

1, Give every single one of your infantrymen a WH40k Bolter.
2, Send 'em out.
3, ????
4, Profit.

I'm pretty sure that if a normal human tried to use a bolter the recoil would rip their arms off

OT: Lasguns the average soldier could use them and they would be better than our current modern guns because they're lasers also the ammo cartridges can be charged by solar power or other energy source thus eliminating the need for ammo

 

[Rewdalf]

Probably a Battlecruiser [http://us.media.blizzard.com/sc2/media/artwork/loading-hyperion6-full.jpg].

That image is pretty awesome.
I think I've found my new desktop background!

 

[SteakHeart]

The nanosuit from Crysis. It's not a weapon, strictly speaking, but given what it can do, it'd be perfect for war. It can turn you invisible, it can boost your strength immensely, it can make you run at a good 30mph, and it can deflect bullets like they're frozen peas.

 

[Kataskopo]

Easy, lightsaber.

But I would need Jedi powers to use it properly... Can I have Jedi powers too, please?

 

[zombays]

That one super-gun from the film "Eraser" starring the governator.

 

[Gudrests]

The death star. What war?
What planet, for that matter.

As awesome as it would be, I don't think the Death Star would be very practical in a present day war. After all, you can't exactly blow up this planet as it's the only one we've got.

Oh, I can't?
Dying doesn't bother me much.

i say just angle the thing so it will only shoot one of the many charging lazers...and BAM....GG?

 

[ryanxm]

LIBERTY PRIME!

he will destory with missles lasers bombs bullets and flamethrowers

and give motivation quotes!

 

[Varun Garuda Maharaj]

I'll borrow this from the Elites

 

[Nocturnal Gentleman]

Millennium Falcon, I wouldn't use it at war, I'd just go around with a Newfoundland (I don't know if they have them in America, but they look like a cross-breed between a dog and a bear) in the cockpit and look badass.

I'm pretty sure we have them. They look kinda like all black saint bernards right? Really webbed toes?

Anyway, I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned yet but I'd want a super mutant virus. Preferably one that makes you into a serious behemoth with enhanced normal functions and a shit load of new ones. Freaky looking beast-like mutants with extra limbs that are still very intelligent. Man I'd hammer people at night with an army of those. People would think they're getting attacked by aliens or monsters. I can't bring a definite example because what I'd want would be a combination of several games/books.

 

[iBananaCrazy]

A lightsaber? Hell yeh.

 

[Peter Pottorff]

1. Space marines from Warhammer 40k
2. the gravity gun

 

[Roganwilson]

The Star Forge. Because who doesn't want the ability to replicate their army infinitely?

 

[Precision Burrito]

The Chimpositron from Ratchet and Clank Future.

I'm sorry, you didn't want to be turned into a monkey?

 

[alittlepepper]

Nothing beats the MAKO from ME, it's bad stearing makes every one else fall to the ground loling, as they fall down to the ground the mako gently drives over them

Pretty much this. Yeah the driving controls for that thing were a right ass, but think about it. Fast and agile ATV/APC with jump jets that can apparently survive long falls directly onto it's side with no damage at all, and can bounce over and through the worst terrain possible and climb near-vertical surfaces also with no damage, as well as having both a high powered mini-gun and tank-style main cannon. And shields!
Would make a pretty massive difference in most modern conflicts. Unstoppable, even.

 

[DataSnake]

M-36 lasgun. Not very flashy, but so rugged it makes an AK47 look like a faberge egg. Also, it has a 150-shot self-replenishing magazine.
