Hello. Please suspend your disbelief a moment and think this...
If the Universal Union was to actually invade in... three years, what would you do?
To me, my goals would be simple:
-Survive the War
-Survive the processing
-Survive relocation
-Enlist in the Civil Authority because it's the motherfucking Civil Authority!
The whole thing would be pretty bleak as I imagine; a cruel and dark life filled with violence and pain, real nasty stuff. I imagine a realistic union where we are never allowed to remove our masks around anyone, there are no divisions and all are orders come anonymously from Dispatch. We don't even know the units who work along side us and any chatting leads to a swift and lethal punishment. Even knowing this is what the Union would be like I would prefer it to life as a citizen. What would you do if the events of the Half-Life canon actually occurred?

Well, as soon as word spread about the UU invading through portal storms, I would most likely hide in my closet with food and my dog (Even though she would probably be violently butchered after we we're found). After being found, and taken to a processing center (Assuming I'm the age of 18, which I dear god hope I am by then), I would live life as a normal citizen until signing up for the CCA. Although life would be extremely bleak, it would probably be better then being a starving, malnourished, beaten-on-a-daily basis citizen.
tl;dr
>join cca
>hit people

I would surrender for my own sake, just like I would have done in world war two.
Of course I'd try not to snitch and such but I wouldn't resist, no.
-
What if the Union are already here, but in the form of Valve? They're brainwashing us in preparation of their invasion so we will enlist for the CCA and help the Union!
But yes, CCA erryday.

I'm reading this trying to figure out if people are just trolling, or wanting what little power they can take if all hell breaks lose...
If the union was to invade I'd resist, Just like if anyone invaded american be it Russia or China I'd resist.
Its not a matter of "Lol we'd be crushed" Its a matter of there's no point in screwing over your fellow man and in the end, screwing humanity as a whole.
And also, Hl2 is 20 years after the seven hour war. So most likely they didn't kill children, they just fucking grew up.

I'm not trolling or grasping for power, never did I state I would willingly apply for the CCA and their inhumane actions.
I wouldn't resist the Union, that's what I am saying. - I'm pretty sure you wouldn't resist them neither if it was real life.
They show serious intimidation and lots of propaganda for you not to.

>Union Invades
>Is not 18
>Amputated
So I'd just run off into some isolated area (some forest). Live life like that, hopefully meet up with people. I'd be pretty fucking scary, but if everything was canon in the invasion, then I'd just wait for Gordon Freeman. Otherwise, I'd try to sneak into a city (a small one, as I'm guessing they would have less defenses and I'd be easier to get into it. From there, I would transport people out of the city and into "The Outlands".
If I was 18 by then.
I'd just join the CCA/MPF (whatever they would call it), as I wouldn't be malnourished and such. Not much else really.
-
18 all ready, join the CCA.
-
You all suck, as soon as the Union invade I am going Zak Grant on their asses.
-
I'd get V flags and S2K everybody.
I'd be amputated because under 18 ;c
-
I would use sethhack, asspull a minigun from my ass and RDM everyone with aimbot and wallhack on, then proceed to sexrp every desperate female.
-
What would I do?
Union invades!
Under 18!
RUN!
Make a Spear!
Join a community!
Become trigger happy with a pistol!
Kill shitloads of OTA.
Die/Lead an advance to free a city and move it's population to outter areas to make it harder for the Union to kill us.
FUCK DA CCA!
Though, if I was not amp'd I'd join and screw them over from the inside. MUHAHAHA!

By far the best plan.
-
I would dig a hole and live there until some poor sap accidentally digs me up. I will then proceed to eat his face and drag him back to my dirt liar that is now a cloning for other crazy dirt dwellers.
We will fight of Antilions on a daily basis until we eventually come to an agreement and learn to live with eachother.

Yes, that is a perfect plan! Combine got overrun in Episode 1 when the power went.
Okay, no. I'd just do what every other Citizen does.
-
Considering I'm under 18 and would be killed anyways, I'd get the M1 Garand we keep in our house along with all the ammo I could handle, go down to my uncles apartment type thing (We live in a 2 Family house) and get his M9 Beretta (Which he keeps loaded in his safe). I would then try to hide somewhere within my house until the combine has finished passing through Boston, which hopefully they wouldn't have completely destroyed. Then I guess the rest is just self explanatory, survive until I die or the UU leaves.
-
Three years just from now, I'd be 18. Who knows if I won't get killed still.
-
I live out in essentially near a region that resembles Ineu Pass. Heavily forested, mountainous, small towns and farms scattered around everywhere. I have guns and enough know how of where I live and the like to be able to get out into the wilderness and survive to the best of my ability. I guess Xenian creatures would be a big problem, but hey, they'd make a great food source for me and my budds.
If I was somehow caught and sent to a city, I'd live out a 'loyal' life until something stirred up to the point where any form of Resistance rose up. Hell, I might even give it a shot at trying to lead something like that. I tend to be timid at sometimes, but I find myself to be a good tactician and a leader when I've got a reason to do so. Fuck the Union and they're controlling ways. Deep down, I'm a rebel, and I'd like to put some rounds in some faceplates before I died of hunger or starvation. Chances are I'd be dead anyways before Freeman came around.
-
If the CCA would be like the Candidate story I would probably stay in my apartment all day.

I'm glad you like my story :)
Also... I guess things would be easier as a citizen but it's ultimately a death sentence.
-
Ultimate goal would be to survive. 3 Years means I would be age eligible to keep my life. UED would be a safe way to live, but I have no idea how the hell that works. But I can't predict what would happen so I would probably book it into the mountains and live there. Rural, water sources, some houses and whatever. I'd just grow watermelons and taters on my farm and sell them to rednecks for weapons and ammunition and live in the woods. I would then proceed to tame a black bear who I'll sick on OTA and steal their equipment.
-
I would kill them all with guns.
-
the fun thing is that most of you are probably going to be some of the first to die or stand in the middle of the ota crowd
