Well what's the objective(s) of the mission? Available assets? Capabilities of indigenous populace? How long is the mission? How many men do I have with me? Though I don't have much training, well, none at all, here's my loadout.
First line:
- Weapons system, prolly a supressed m14 with an eotech, or suppressed m468 with eotech. (Or should I take an acog x4 with doc holo sights on top?)
- 1911, either in .45 or the *NEW* .50 cal.

most likely the former.
- Personal trauma kit.
- Like what some of you said, WATER (in a hydration bladder) and rations to last me at least 3 days.
- Knife or multitool (or both)
- Basic nav tools. map + compass.
- Chocs.
Second/Third line:
- Plates, maybe a level IIIa ? Since it's just a recce mission i don't expect to have heavy contact with the op forces.
- Radio (a good one please.) maybe 2, one links me with my team and the other to HQ. Extra batts too.
- load-bearing HARNESS (not vest ah, hot) with all the goodies inside and around.. you know, porn mags for me to read while observing the target, binoculars or spotter's scope so I can view the hoes at the enemy's HQ, NODs (gen III please). oh mags too.
- GPS?
- Claymores.
- Extra undergarments/socks. Crotch rot sucks, i'm sure y'all are aware of that.

Oops ok i'm getting carried away. Looks like i'll be lugging alot of things. Never mind lah better to have and not need rather than need and not have.
LET'S START A ZOMBIE LOADOUT THREAD!!!!!!!
