Time Machine!

Yeah, it's another time machine thread.
Okay, so here's the scenario:
Your friend builds a time machine. You can recruit 9 other people to go back with you in time to change any major historical event (you could kill Mohammed before he got started, tell the Paris Communards that if they don't march on Versailles they'll be crushed, give AK-47s to the American Indians to fight off the colonial invaders, show Napoleon the British battle plans at Waterloo, show medieval Europe how to manufacture vaccine for the Black Plague, kidnap Martin Luther to delay the Protestant Reformation, whatever you like). You have access to any modern weaponry, medicine, electronics, books, or other supplies/equipment/tools, but you can only bring as much as your group of 10 people is able to carry.
Once you have accomplished your mission, you can travel forward on the new alternate timeline and see the results, no do-overs. After that you will have the option to bring your friends and family to the new future timeline and live there permanently or return to the present.
So, what in history do you change and how do you do it? Who and what are you bringing with you on your mission?
fuck you
