What would skirmish, raid, battle, or pitched battle between Native American and early American colonists have looked like? Where would the engagements take place? How long would they last? What kind of weapons did each side use?

For sake of answering the question I'll give an exact date and location: Massachusetts Bay Colony before and during the Pequot War in 1636-38.

You're going to have to specify a time period and geographical area - there's a number of historical accounts, but they are all very different based on when and where it happened and who was involved. The Great Swamp Fight, for example, looks a lot different than conflicts between Native Americans and Spanish settlers in the Southwest.
