In response the the talks of this only being an unfair weapons matchup, these are basically the only types of weaponry that the Amazonian Guards would really have based off what I've found.

I've seen people say on Discord that if you give explosives to the AG, it would be a much better matchup. Well, looking through the general Armed Forces of the Libyan Arab Jamahirya (which I had to do because there is so little info on the AG), I could only find RPG-2s/7s and thr Strela-2in use.The RPGs are sepcifically designed for AT purposes, not AP, and the Strela-2 is for anti-aircraft. I couldn't find any grenades or other smaller explosives in any way. (If anyone can find other ones please tell).

I also believe they wouldn't have grenades and especially rocket launchers due to their occupation as bodyguards, not soldiers in battle. They are constantly in Gaddafi's immediate area, always guarding him both in public and private areas. The risk for collateral damage or the accidental death of Gaddafi would discourage them from using explosives. Sure guns can do that too, but in a much lesser form. They're there to protect Gaddafi, not destroy everything with maximum force.

And any of the other small arms that they could possibly have received from the Jamahirya won't really make a difference as they run into the exact same problems as the original battle's weapons.
