The PMC[]
Not much is known about the PMC, as they have no part in Modern Warfare 3's campaign and are a multiplayer only faction. What is known though is that they are a private military company (Private Military Company) and are stationed in Somalia and Thailand. In Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer, they fight the African Militia on the maps Bakaara, Mission, Carbon, and Village and fight the Spetsnaz on Bootleg. They are also seem to be under the command of the leader of Team Two from the mission "Return to Sender" in Somalia during the campaign as the PMC operates in Somalia.
Merryweather Security[]
Merryweather Security is a paramilitary operating all over in the world including the Middle East and San Andreas, the setting for Grand Theft Auto V. Throughout their time operating in San Andreas, local drug dealer and arms dealer Trevor Phillips causes them trouble including stealing a cargo plane of supplies and when he abducted ne of their trains and crashed it, destroying the cargo. These events cause them to lose millions of dollars and support from other parties including the US government. By the end of GTA V, they lose their governmental contract and are forced to shut down any operations they have in the United States and making them lose millions of dollars.

X Factors[]
| X Factor | PMC | Merryweather Security |
|---|---|---|
| Training | 85 | 85 |
| Brutality | 89 | 92 |
| Combat Experience | 93 | 90 |
| Success Rate | 85 | 20 |
| Tactics | 86 | 88 |
Explanations
- Both groups seem to have the same training. Private contractors don't give the best training but it's good to mention that Merryweather was inspired by Academi aka Blackwater, the PMC famous for it's alleged human rights violations during the Iraq War.
- Merryweather takes brutality since they are willing to kill anyone that will uncover any of their secrets or to protect Devin Weston.
- Both warriors have ingaged in combat but the PMC have fought the Spetsnaz, a special forces group which gives them the edge. Even though Merryweather has fought a lot of people including terrorists but haven't fought anything like the Spetsnaz.
- The PMC are at least successful in their operations. They can defeat the African Militia and Spetsnaz is MW3's multiplayer but Merryweather's number 1 problem Trevor Phillips has made their time in San Andreas a living nightmare. Merryweather's failure is why they had to get off of US soil.
- The PMC don't seem to have a proper plan (like any MW3 multiplayer faction), they just run around and kill people while Merryweather seems to have a proper plan in their attempts to kill the GTA V protagonists, even though they fail.
Weapon Edges[]
- Melee: The nightstick can reach longer and can break bones but the Blackhawk Tatang can stab people and the puncture wounds can be pretty deadly. It's even for me.
Edge: Even
- Short Range: I'm going to be very honest here, I hate the Desert Eagle. It's an impractical hand cannon that has very high recoil and is heavy for a pistol. While it fires a very strong round, I'm giving the edge to the P2000 since it fires a pretty decent round, has a larger capacity, and less recoil than the Deagle.
Edge: Merryweather Security
- Mid Range: The UMP .45 fires the .45 ACP round which is stronger than the MP5A3's 9x19 Parabellum round but it's range and rate of fire is what prevents it from getting the edge. The MP5A3's 200m range and 800 RPM is what gets it the edge.
Edge: Merryweather Security
- Long Range: Both of these rifles are similar when you compare them. Both shoot the 5.56x45mm NATO round and have 30 rounds in a clip. I'm going to make this even, since the G36C has a longer range but the HK416 has a higher rate of fire.
Edge: Even
- Explosive: The M26 grenade can be thrown, doesn't require the user to set it in a location, and is a lot more portable than the semtex. The semtex can be a very good tactical tool since it can be used to sabatoge a pathway and could definitley surprise Merryweather. In the end, the edge goes to Merryweather's M26 grenade.
Edge: Merryweather Security
- Special: The Advanced Taser M26 can incapacite someone and shock them, similar to SWAT's taser shockwave as seen on Deadliest Warrior. Meanwhile, the M84 Stun Grenade can incapacitate multiple people and doesn't require the user to aim and fire, they can just throw it into a location.
Edge: The PMC

Merryweather Security: 12345
Africa, 2013
In a village located somewhere in Africa, a group of five Merryweather Security troops are deployed to neutrilize a group of armed men killing civillians. They're driving in their Mesa and stop to inspect the empty village. Meanwhile, at the other end of the village five PMC soldiers are looking for the same men. They are unaware that they aren't the only ones in the village so it was surprising to see another group of men with weapons. Seeing them as threats, on of them opens fire with his UMP .45, killing a Merryweather officer.
Merryweather Security: 1234
The other men take cover behind some walls near their Mesa. While this is going on, they open fire with their HK416s and MP5A3s. They manage to hit a PMC but he survives. One of the Merryweathers decides to take out an M26 Grenade and throws it at the group of men. The wounded man is destroyed in the explosion.
PMC: 1234
The PMC decides to try to retreat but one of them decides to set up a semtex trap. He finishes and waits for a Merryweather to show up. He sees one but he start shooting at him. He tries to detonate the semtex but he dropped the detonator. He didn't want to shoot the semtex since it may damage it. As a last resort, he takes out his M84 Stun Grenade and throws it at the men. The man is dazed and drops his gun in the process. The PMC manages to get his detonator and pushes the button, killing the Merryweather in a firey explosion.
Merryweather: 123
Another Merryweather pops out and shoots the PMC in the head with his MP5A3.
PMC: 123
The remaining PMCs are scattered all over the place. One tries to hide in a cave but he spots a couple Merryweather. He opens fire with his G36C and manages to get one.
Merryweather: 12
The PMC runs out of ammo and takes out his Desert Eagle. At the same the Merryweather runs out of ammo for his HK416 and takes out his P2000. He tries to shoot the Merryweather and manages to hit him in the leg but the Desert Eagle's recoil is too high and misses. The Merryweather hits the PMC in the head, killing him.
PMC: 12
The Merryweather tries limping away from the scene but is cut off by a PMC's Blackhawk Tatang stabbing him in the back.
Merryweather Security: 1
The last Merryweather is trying to get to his Mesa but is getting shot at by a PMC's G36C. The Merryweather shoots him with his MP5A3 but the gun is shot off his hand. The PMC rushes over to him and pushes him to the ground, preparing to kill him. But the Merryweather takes out his M26 Advanced Taser and stuns the PMC, causing him to collapse to the ground. He gets up, takes out his nightstick, and starts blugeoning his enemy's skull in.
PMC: 1
The remaining Merryweather makes his way to the Mesa and turns on the ignition. He barely puts his foot on the gas but the worse thing happens, he feels a cold steel object against the back of his head. The PMC was in the back seat with his Desert Eagle in hand.
"Ah sh*t" he mutters before his brain is turned into jelly by the Desert Eagle's .50 AE round.
Merryweather Security:
The PMC exits the back of the Mesa and raises his Desert Eagle in victory.
WINNER: PMC
Expert's Opinion[]
While Merryweather Security did have the superior SMG and pistol, the PMC had better a better special weapon, explosive that could be used a lot more tactically, and combat experience fighting African Militia and Spetsnaz. Merryweather's past failures is what caused them to fail here today.
Next Time...[]
Two armed groups that fight for different causes will go head to head to see who is better. The Joker Impersonators, the gang dressed up like the Clown Prince of Crime and fight the Batz will go against the Resistance, the Ark's freedom figherts that fight the Security to try to make contact with the outside world.
