Starting to get real tiresome how Alliance is supposedly the weaker of the two but consistently wins strategic and tactical victories against superior numbers and supposedly equal or better commanders.

>behold my genius, a HALF CIRCLE!
Did you honestly expect the strategy and tactics to make sense?
they were constantly eating shit early on in the show
are you outta your mind satan?
Most strategies IRL were pretty silly. Like, half-moon formations, splitting your force for a feint and the like.
the thumbnail makes it look like reinhard has huge fucking jugs
Thing about having superior numbers, even with OPERATIONAL GENIUS, such as the Nazi Germany's, it is impossible to overcome it by tactics if you don't have the numbers, and then you lose the strategy too.
Alliance should be the rulers by all military markers in the show.
IIRC They were crippled by that one campaign where Reinhard used scorched earth tactics about 14 epiosdes into the series, the rest was just them winning small skirmishes.
Yang is the only one who wins.
Alliance got raped so bad during their invasion of the start of the series it impacts the entire series to come. They lost several fleets just like that.
The point of the show is that justice always prevails, that's why the good guys win in the end.
>that's why the good guys win in the end.
Wow it is really lucky how in history the good guys always won.
I stopped watching after the war ended and the silly cartoon villain cult became the main antagonists. Do I keep going bros?
That's literally how history works, since the victors write the history books.
>singlehandedly costs the alliance the war
What was his problem?
Most wars in real life were waged with soldiers whose default velocity was "standing" and whose movement was limited to two dimensions, whose shooting range was within 300 meters, and whose visibility was limited to a few kilometers.
>just increase the distance between the individual units to be adequate for spaceships, and then the tactics make sense in space
No, they don't.
To have a battle in space, the first problem you will have is that the armies are just going to fly by each other.
Why would you break for your enemy?
So you will be in "visible" range for 1 second or less.
That's just a physical limitation for spaceships engaging each other.
Whatever formation gets developed will be with this fact in mind.
You will never have deep formations because all your units want to shoot at the quickly moving target within the tiny time frame that they CAN shoot at it.
You will not revolutionize your formations on the fly like Yang did. That's just unrealistic.
The series introduces a number of artificial limitations in order to make the space-combat less like space-combat and more like cavalry combat (limitations on range and communications etc), but ultimately they are just him trying to justify unjustifyable.
The lack of communications actually make deep lines even more problematic. When the ship in front of you dodges an attack, you will only learn about that when the attack hits you. Deep lines are just a good way of making sure the enemy can't miss.
And with that the range limitation is effectively out of the window.
> When Yang recaptures the Iserlon with haha-i-let-you-know-my-trick subversion
I got unreasonably mad at the writing but its so cheap to do this shit
Yes keep going. I'll be honest and say that GinEiDen peaked with part 3 and I'll also say that part 4 was my least favourite but it has its moments. I was still satisfied.
Most real life strategies involve simple stuff like pinzer attacks and/or overwhelm the enemy with superior firepower.
The more memetic and convoluted a strategy is, the higher risk of failure because the prerequisites to make it work grow more and more, to the point you can no longer controll all of them.
Even one of the greatest chess player in history stated that once a "game" grow too much complex, it's no longer a match about skills, but rather memory and sheer luck
He wouldnt had recaptured it, if Reunthal bothered to check if Yang left some "surprise" in the fortress.
But as he admitted in his internal monologue, he was simply tasked to take the fortress. Checking it from traps was someone else job, and he wasnt going to make someone else's work
>Even one of the greatest chess player in history
Go learn how to speak proper English and then come back and apologize.
Prove i'm wrong instead of wasting time ranting about grammar in a site where people uses adjectives like "based" as an interlayer
imagine feeling an ounce of respect for this mutt version of the angelic tongue
Look I understand you are upset that you are being judged as retarded, but if you were simply not retarded that wouldn't be happening. You only have yourself to blame.
They hate Trunicht for being based
