I mean, they attack one at a time and somehow inaho is everywhere on the entire planet at once, so why dont they attack with more than one mech at a time?

How is one person single handedly stopping an entire army like this?

From my understanding, they have a finite number of OP mecha. Not every martian has one of those things.

Because it would make Inaho look bad and he wouldn't be able to be a Gary Stu. Oh wait, he would probably wreck both at the same time, silly me. :^)

As the poster above said, they have.

At the start of season 2, it's mentioned that the america's, africa and australia are all under the control of vers, the only places still under earth control is parts of europe and asia.

The better question is why don't they give their mechs regular guns and use their damn army to attack. How the hell were they expecting to take over anything region with 1 mech and a landing castle.

Why dont you understand that they dont have to take every part of the Earth to win the war? There are a finite amount of resources in the parts of Earth that are left. Real war isnt like Risk.

Why dont they just destroy the places they currently have control of, to lure the UFE out of hiding, instead of attacking them 1 by 1 and getting beaten by the one person on the entire planet who paid attention in high school physics?

Episode 16 didn't even make sense. The Count basically landed in the middle of nowhere and attacked a small town.

They dont have to. Eventually the UFE will be forced to surrender.

They dont have to physically attack every single inch of the earths surface. You clearly know nothing about history, war, or common logic.

85 percent of the land, already destroyed, and was in the desert state, the Martian Radiation weapons, already polluted the oceans, there remains a lot of resources.
About the Martians strands, they were not created by Martians, they forama findings superficei from Mars, then each has a special power for core, each castle has a lock these. Equals formula-1, no use having a ferrari or mercedes, if pilots do not possess sufficient skills to fly, the Martians have large locks, it is a great technology, however those ques are using technology and locks, people seem without qualifications, and is carried away by the power and became arogantes, and dependent on this technology, when you have super weapons, people forget to train and better, and are simply being dependent on them

You are aware that sieges are only effective in a small area not ENTIRE FREAKING CHUNKS OF CONTINENTS, right? Look at the map again. None of those locations can be starved out. Heck the Vers conquered some of the less profitable locations like south america.

What about Jaburohhhh wait wrong show.

Okay the way I understand it is they have been attacking more than one place at the same time, we just haven't seen it since about episode 2 of season 1. I think it's safe to assume based on the rules of how Aldnoah.Zero fights work that those places are conquered. Anywhere that Inaho and the Deucalion have been are disputed and liberated territories since he is the only one allowed to take down any Aldnoah makes or have any sort of success for the Earth army.

Not only that, but the rather unpleasant fact that vers has already killed probably over a billion people on earth, whether through landing castle drops or outright genocide, definitely reduces the resources needed to sustain survivability of a population.

Metals are simple, syberia has alot of rare earths and metals to make equipment, there's also the fact that they control at least some of the moon and/or asteroid field, which is supposedly extremely rich in some minerals.

As for why they haven't surrendered, what makes you think that's an option?
It seems like at best the citizens of earth would be enslaved and at worst an outright eradication is taking place.

I've already explained to you how it works, but you seem to not understand farming, animal husbandry, or metalworks if you think the remains of Earth could continue to fight a winning battle against the Martians with what they have remaining.

Instead of choking out the remaining Terran's and preserving their own strength, it seems Vers is more interested in attacking Inaho one at a time to make him look like a bad ass.

It doesn't matter how much sense or good points you bring up, people won't be satisfied and will defend this show to the death. How did the terrans ever regain a foothold in space is a much better question.. why weren't they shot down by the orbiting castles? lol

How would they even have communications considering the first thing the martians did was take out their long range communication technology and satellites? This show just doesn't make sense and is at odds with itself half the time.

Wait are people trying to find some military aspect in this show? If you are, then please give up.

There's not even a single lore put into the factions nor every features of the anime, essentially they rushed. If it was a militaristic show, then normal soldier would actually make an impact rather than two characters.

It's like comparing Ryomaden to A/Z and even worst, comparing Game of Thrones to A/Z because there really is no military aspect, reality, to A/Z.

I'm not trying to flame the person who was reasoning for military but ... just give up, most anime nowadays focus on fanservice and single badass character, that's simply it, except for rare shows like Nagi no Asakura or Clannad.

If I was, Vers, I would simply put an entire army onto Inaho, if not two, in case he somehow kills all of them.

And then focus on several regions of the earth, for example, 10 castle onto Europe, 10 on America with this, they'll expand onto north and south. Then Africa, probably not too much to deal with, no offence, so around 4, then hit Asia starting with Korea as the base and expand westward and eastward. A few to Australia and finally Singapore.

Put some castle on reserve in case, some are taken out. There's more to it, but like someone else said in here, most of the fanbase in here wouldn't understand a thing.

We should all know that in reality, the Vers army would be capable of winning the war with relative ease if they used basic strategy or tactics. But this show isn't really about the war, it is more about the Slaine/Inaho trajectory.

I think that focus warps a lot of the way the show is perceived, and not necessarily for the better, but the show will be what the show will be.

Inaho can only be at one place at a time, not sure why they dont just avoid him and conquer everything else.

Then again, now he can literally blow up Aldnoah mechas from space with 2 shots from a rifle, so I guess that's out.

Pretty sure you need to pay attention. I swear It baffles me how much people tend to miss. Or do you just ignore things? There is a freakin map showing how much has been conquered by the vers, and you still come up with comments like these.

Oh and i'm pretty sure it was the deucalion that fired those 2 shots, not Inaho's rifle, but hey lets ignore that also since it contradicts your statement.

back to the original question: have we ever seen the Vers train together, to work as a team?

The Kat pilots all seem to think the UE forces will die instantly if the Kat just looks at them sideways, and for the most part that's true.

Anyway, watch that old movie, "Rustler's Rhapsody". There's one great scene in there that speaks to this, and also how the bad guys are so badly written in general in action flicks & westerns.

And nah, Verys army will get annihilated by Inaho as usual, he'll probably use the sun to destroy the Vers amiright?

no need, vers will self-destruct thanks to our new useless lemuria princess and great slaine's master plot

Implying Slaine is capable of wielding or even making a tool on his own. Inaho is no tool and Slaine is no user.

Yep. The scale of the setting is just too large to be shown in detail given the time constraints the show has to work with. As such, the rest of the war is practically ignored in favor of focusing on the few main story lines, which is perfectly understandable.

That is my opinion. Inaho's crew of girls aboard their ship can apparently cover the remainder of earth from space now.

Feel free to disagree but don't be so petty as to accuse me of faking my opinion to make you upset. You aren't that important to me.

You are using semantics to argue with my valid opinion. Whether Inaho took the shot, or the Deucalion, it still presents a laughably overpowered front considering the Main Characters power relative to that of the Martians.

I am literally baffled by how the Earth forces got into space, much less how they can freely fly the Deucalion around shooting at ground forces without being challenged by the Martian forces.

Yes, it is my opinion that this thread is not about whether you guys prefer Inaho or Slaine.

I don't see an issue with that.
