North America or Europe? - continent wise

North America 320 50.24%
 
Europe 313 49.14%
 
Total:633

If Europe and North America went to war, I have to think the winner would be Asia.

Well name has bases in those countries so they have that going for them plus we could just send beiber over there



Where does the fighting occur?

 

If it's on North American soil then we win hands down...hundreds of millions of guns are laying around here, we'd have militias as big as Europe's army divisions (not as well trained, but still a major threat)

 

But if it's in Europe then it's more even and who knows. 



Nukes yes or no ? no ok.

In Europe or US... In E hmm will some come to the aid of others. Personally id say fuck em, in NA 4 fronts for US to defend, would be a bitch.

some one makes this game, all out Eu US war.



This gets asked a lot on War forums and is usually always unanimously agreed that Europe would win and without much difficulty either.

North America just wouldn't have anywhere near the numbers to be able to win. Europe would have many times the amount of special forces who would wipe out all of the important US leaders, this would include the SAS who are the best special forces unit there is.

If US lost to Vietnam and had trouble with the middle east there's no they'd win against Europe.

If they would choose to hold an Olympic event to decide the outcome of the war Europe would easily win though.



Plus US would have to take down so many countries and leaders, cities and bases whereas Europe would only have to cripple a few key locations to do severe damage.

US wouldn't be able to keep track of that many countries armies either which could really cost them in surprise attacks. Their army would be spread too thin going up against that much force and again it's not like they'd be up against Iraq, they're just as well trained.



Neither of them, any large scale occurring today would occur in everyone losing.

Then comparing fire or military power of two entities has no sense because it completely depends on alliances. For example if both Russia and China were to side with Europe, North America would get wiped.

I wonder what war forums you visit... because that's just wrong... if you have the most basic knowledge of the militarys at play and warfare.

I mean... how does the SAS even get to North America?   Europe doesn't have the hardware or force projection needed to invade.

The USA had trouble against Vietnam... because it was a war that was never fought all out because of the fear of Vietnam.

Still Vietnam is a great example, because that's sort of what a war between NA and Europe would look like.

A North America vs Europe war is basically just the North American Navies wiping out the Europeon ones fairly quickly, followed by a protracted air campaign which europe would eventually lose.

Followed by the USA more or less just bombing/missling any europeon factories for decades until one side loses it's will to fight.

Which, lets be honest, is far more likely to be europe under stalemate conditions, let alone losing conditions, what with the greater aversion to war, and many many different countries who will start blaming each other, argueing with each other, and lets be honest....

sell each other out...

and on the off chance the US people decided to give up first....?

Just like vietnam, the only damages would be far outside of the USA and the casualties would be far worse on the non-american side.

 

Besides, it's not like various europeon countries haven't had worse losses then vietnam.

 

Hell.  Look at the recent EU sponsored wars like Libya, they basically had to drag in the US kicking and screaming to do all the heavy lifting because the EU wasn't confident it could handle LIBYA without trouble, because they just didn't have the technology to bomb Libya good enough.

 

Considering the thread rules though... it's pretty much just the US navy destroying the Europeon navy, then bombing the EU army to a managable size, then the US army comes over and finishes the job.

Again, i need to ask, do you actually visit war forums... because this is just baffling.

 

A Europeon advantage will be that there are many smaller armies that will be uncoordinated messes that don't join up?

 

Sounds more like easy picking to me...   nevermind the weird thought you seem to have that NA won't simply split up it's forces into multiple groups ever and apparently just have one giant mob of USA, Mecian and Canadian troops.

 

To stand ANY chance... pretty much before the war even started, Most soverign military forces would need to be seceded to a Europeon Union war council.  Likely Russia would have to do so as well, or coordinate VERY closley.

 

The idea that somehow each country individually with it's smaller, less technically advanced fleets is going to be able to reach the USA is a joke, espiecally considering how long naval time takes, and that sattelites exist.
