Spoiler: snip

yaddah yaddah, what i said before.

You may need a pack mule for all of that or this

Not really, that is pretty much what would fit on my body...

Yes, but how long can you carry that then march or if need be run, and not grow fatigued.

You are obviously not familiar with what a soldier or merc would be in a war...
You don´t run arround all day long killing shit!
If you´ve ever join the military you know that what i mentioned isn´t even HALF the shit they make you carry for weeks and you still get enough time at the base/night to recover.
Being a fighter in a War is a tough task, and when you can´t carry even the mandatory equipment you quite obviously fail at being a combatant in the first place.

What do you think is all the training in the basic for?
To make you look better?
No, it´s because without high stamina or strengh you couldn´t even survive a day in your gear.

This is a videogame website not your VFW. It is a scientific fact that most gamers are fat, depressed losers [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/93968-Science-Says-Gamers-are-Fat-Depressed-Losers] so no most of us don't know the first thing about actual military life unless someone makes a game that teaches you what it feels like to watch your buddies die in a foreign land in a war that was unjustifiable at best and unforgivable at worst.

I have the utmost respect for the brave people who join the military because it is something I could never do. Mainly because I am a fat, depressed, loser who doesn't like waking up early and or dying.

An army.

 

[Flishiz]

Aside from the regular things, I'd take silly string (checks for tripwires), duct tape, books too long to read at once, if only to make the next day different from the rest.

 

[Shock and Awe]

If I got to choose,

A Dragon skin BP vest.

Custom M-16

1911 .45 Pistol

and other essentials.

 

[Aqualung]

It only has to be SOMEWHAT realistic?

Sonic screwdriver and a sonic blaster.

...Can I carry a TARDIS?

On that videogame website was a hypothetical question of what i would bring for war.
Then i stated what i would bring in three ways, my way, the soldier way, and the merc way.
My way was the obvious gamer way, by even quoting yahtzee, the second and third are hypothetical in what i would bring if i were either of them.
And if i would be either of them i would also be on their fitness level, enabling me to carry dat shit.

Also i get a +10 boost to fitness from next month onwards anyway, because that would be my service time and afterwards i could pretty much handle that XD

PS: i can walk for miles but not run for about 200 yards so there is need XD
