No. A major flaw with the comic was having the Panzermensch not appear until '45. Yes, the spectacle of Berlin being saved by them was really cool, but it's forced the writers into a position where if Germany ever loses hard, they're fucked, because they're economically and militarily ruined and couldn't possibly recover from a major defeat, so that'd just be the end of the comic.
>>
>>90121465
It killed their pacing though.
How many issues of build up for Churchill?
Just for a few pages of her mulching cannon fodder then getting completely wrecked.

>>90121465
but if they appeared before '45 the germans would have both ubers and conventional arms and the allies would have lost already
>>
>>90124969
The story is about tanks being replaced entirely. You could just do the story with Tankmen leading the blitzkrieg.

The problem with the premise is they keep promising that it's not Nazi fan wank and the Germans will lose in the end, and also how they are stretched too thin and don't have resources and so on.

But the story doesn't do anything to imply the Germans are hurting in any way and every single build they do is wasted on one page summed up by "The Germans deployed a perfect counter attack"
>>
>>90125157
>The story is about tanks being replaced entirely
Not just replaced, completely SURPASSED by tankmen
normal tank shells can't even take down tankmen.
if ubers led the charge with massed tank, infantry, naval, and aerial support from the beginning the allies would be fucked.

i keep seeing germans suffer significant losses when it comes to non-battleships, but i never see it actually impact them.

you'd think with german infrastructure in ruins and civilian displacement and starvation being a problem, the germans would have trouble making significant numbers of even the standard tank-men, but they always seem to have the numbers anyway, so every Pyrrhic victory the germans have seems irrelevant to the actual story.

then why are the nazis winning
>>
KG has said repeatedly that the point of the story is make the nazi's scary again, and part of that is recreating the perspective people had at the time of the nazi's being invincible, even though their position is basically untenable in almost every way. after all, with their untapped population, the allies could literally throw thousands of tank men at the battle ships until they fall over, or take a beating until they outnumber the battleships 3 or 4 to 1. the book is just the period where the germans slowly lose their advantage and the economics take over. the whole reason they launched this 'invasion' of the USA is because the only possible hope they have of not getting steamrolled in less than a year is by turning the entire place into an economically and politically destroyed wasteland. it's idiotic, but so was the axis strategy in real life.
>>
>>90115848
Butthurt murrican detected.

The Germans started with two major advantages that the allied forces haven't yet been able to neutralize: 3 Battleships and their super spies. The allies are 0/3 for their battleships: Colossus was half baked, Churchill a failure, and the Russian won't go offensive. On top of the Battleship superiority, they're way ahead on research from the spies. Until the allies bridge this gap, they're not going to be able to push back.

I'm pretty sure its going to come to a head with the US Battleships - notably they have one inexperienced and two 'crippled' battleships just like the Germans do. But will it end with the US battleships losing because they aren't fully activated, or is it going to be a close draw that forces the US to completely activate them? Everything so far points to the former, but the later would basically be the tipping point.
>>
This issue was shit, and I really like Uber overall. Literally just a generic punch-up that should have taken up two pages at most.
>>
The nazis(good guys) are winning? That's not the impression I had. The comic seemed pretty clear that regardless of the battleships winning named conflicts on the thousands of other minor battles the Germans(Heroes) are getting their shit pushed in.
>>
>>90127569
Theres no reason to care if the villians always win. Readers need someone to root for, otherwise their interest is lost.

This could be circumvented if they had interesting villians who won in interesting ways, but the Nazi's are all on the verge of caricature and succeed through brute force.
>>
>>90128996
that's elementary school plot advice. you don't always need a character to 'root' for. it just has to be interesting. anyone who needs something they can fully identify with, who is winning, is in the wrong place, obviously.

there's no such thing as a 'handful' of blitzmensch. especially with no reinforcements and no supply lines. if the americans can destroy their transportation or just attrit the lower level forces, eventually Siegfried and Sigmund will be wandering around the continental usa alone, blowing shit up until fatigue makes their heads explode, which is possibly how this will end.

They keep insisting that the Germans can't win, but they keep showing how a single battleship is pretty much unstoppable to anything except a stronger battleship.
The Russian battleship is probably more interested in killing Stalin.
The three Americans are either being held back or mentally broken.

So I really don't see how the Germans can't be optimistic when they have two completely functional battleships and just crippled two allied governments.

We had an entire comic dedicated to showing off the Nazis brutal crushing victory over D.C. And Boston.

Nazi Fan Wank.

>>90127598
The problem of Germany at the ending days of the war was that their industrial capacity was in ruins.

The panzermen don't need too many equipment, just a large enough demographic pool.

1 person out of 5000 can be "uberized"... and despite the losses during the war, Germany still has millions of citizens.
Even if barely 15 years old, a boy becomes a formidable weapon once uberized.

So I guess that they are testing their whole population and conscripting like crazy.

Like an exhausted Battleship that can't use a halo being completely immune to battleship cannons and the entire naval blockade being completely smashed by the panzers that are more useful than the British heavies that slowed the battleship for a minute.

Or how the Germans expected Jew Hulk to be completely mobile when all the intel they had up to that point was that she couldn't even stand without breaking her legs.

She wasn't, they just never scored a direct hit

It wasn't smashed by the panzers it was smashed by the blitz, the one with a 2 stacks in halo and 0 physical.
>Or how the Germans expected Jew Hulk to be completely mobile when all the intel they had up to that point was that she couldn't even stand without breaking her legs.
The German spied got caught slightly after Jew Hulks was tested and deemed ready for combat, so he had time to report back.

>handful

As this anon said >>90129430, it's a matter of attrition.

The Germans are working blitzkrieg-style, using very destructive, very fast moving shock-and-awe tactics to win local battles.

This is great if you can defeat your enemy fast but the Allies can afford to play attrition here.

They lost 300 tankmen, which is basically the draft in a pool of 1500000 people.
The USA back then had a hundred time that many people.
Raising another 300 tankmen might take some time but if the battleships are ready by then, the Germans are fucked.
>>
>>90134700
Or saved the tankmen and heavy tankmen rush until she was drained.
Or since she was heading to the water assume that she had an escape vessel and try and damage it to prevent her from returning.

Like anything other than complete failure on the allies part.

If this was about a poker tournament we'd have to watch one player fold maybe three hands but pull royal flushes out constantly aside from that.
All the high risk gambles they have never result in them losing anything. Thats when it stops being a gamble and starts being bullshit.
>>
>>90135009
Except the main reason why all 300 of the tank men were so decimated by the German counter was because of two battleships supporting each other.

Who are now standing side by side outside New York and ready to punch the US economy in the dick.

But now the US is down 300 tankmen for a possible defense.

Also the page said "limited success"
So take that as a sign that it had minimal impact.

>>
>>90136169
Two major battles then
>>
>>90136204
Kursk resulted in a retreat. Russians had insane loses and the battleship is still fully effective even with one arm.

The second Russian victory is a complete fluke because of their magical school girl battleship rather than any effort on their part.

Also Russia is sitting on an undefended German line but can't do shit. The Germans are so secure that they can move all three battleships to deal with the Brits and Americans.
So yeah. Victory.
>>
>>90136204
Second Battle of Kursk was purely symbolic. 81 tankmen for one battleship arm was a fairly shitty trade, especially since Siegmund was still, like, 95% combat effcient. At least Katyusha's victory over Sieglinde basically reduced the latter to a gloryfied Halo cruiser.
>>
>>90136512
>81 tankmen
not to mention the tens of thousands they sacrificed to get those 81 tankmen
>>
>>90135243
a lot of the devastation of their initial attack came from being in stolen planes, which gave them unlimited line of sight. Now that they've lost that initial surprise and advantage, and they have nowhere to retreat to, the Americans can just run them down with conventional forces until they're too exhausted to fight back. Or, more likely until the three american battleships can finish them off. obviously something will go wrong, and/or Hideki will show up on the west coast, but the logic is sound.

Russia scored a mobility kill thanks to best girl that is a huge victory because it means Siegfried can only be deployed as a glorified artillery/AA nest.

that is exactly what a proper artillery nest does and the towers aren't invincible and require a support group that is larger and more capable. Best girl has given the allies a huge victory because mobility kills are a thing and despite the fact the allies don't know it they are only facing 2 german battle ships at full operational capacity, who are currently engaged, and Nazi Europe is waiting in the assumed position for McArthur and his band of marry men since Siegfried is literally crippled.

The problem with that is that you guys have to be completely neglecting the criticisms in this thread. Most of which specify in great detail, and with accurate historical vision, why the position of Germany had become untenable and how there is really no believable way that they could continue to fight on even with the Panzermensch. In fact their is no reason to suggest that the Americans wouldn't have turned Berlin into a smouldering wasteland of Atomic death.

>>90137503
One battleship is physically crippled.
Still manages to lead the complete devastation of Britain with some support.
Their opposition was the Brits, who had the second most advanced knowledge on ubers.
They had a secret fully functioning heavy battleship, since the Germans last intel was that she couldn't move.

The entire counter attack from the brits failed completely. Mostly thanks to a single crippled battleship.

>>90137821
How is anything I said wrong? Not even direct artillery fire and naval cannons can hurt a battleship, even when exhausted.
Having one loyal battleship when nobody else has any is the same as being unstoppable.
Their two functioning battleships just destroyed Washington D.C. after the crippled one leveled Britain.
They are now moving on to New York after destroying almost the entire 300 man unit sent to destroy them, without taking any major losses (i.e. battleship damage).

Please explain how German will be unable to support two battleships and maintain a military advantage against countries that are being systematically crippled politically and economically.

Are you going to quote where the writers swear they aren't going to let the Germans win?
That at the very last issue the Germans will all just die on the last panel, which means the allies will still win and weren't getting their shit pushed in the entire fucking time?

I want a modern era Uber story. Reusable Uber suicide bombers would be cool for instance.

Though conventional doctrine would probably be very different with Ubers on the battlefield. Heavy armored vehicles such as tanks would most likely not be very prevalent. There'd be a larger focus on air power, which would be the only reliable to way to kill Ubers without getting killed yourself.

>>90138639

A few points about this issue.

After losing the Battle of Naga-whatsit, the US actually offered terms to the Germans. Hitler/Goebbels refused after saying that the US is the big, ultimate threat to the Germany.

Those 300 or so tankmen that the U.S. lost can't be all of their Uber force -- they have some stationed in Europe and the Pacific.

The logistical situation in Germany is so bad that even Hitler/Goebbels is complaining about the food. That seems to be the only mention of Germany's crippling situation we've had in multiple comics.

The Germans are worried about that extra nuke the US still has lying around. With the Germans turning this into a war of extermination, at some point the US is going to just nuke the German invasion force.

You know, the Japanese are still out there. Haven't heard much from them lately.

Germany itself is actually quite vulnerable. If Patton were to get aggressive...
>>
>>90138344
>Their opposition was the Brits, who had the second most advanced knowledge on ubers.

What they did not have was time.
They point it out, actually spell it out, when the scientist bitch makes her report to Churchill, that making Ubers is akin to fermentation, as in it can not be rushed.

The brits tried rushing it, and lost Colossus because of that. They lost because they were idiots.

>Please explain how German will be unable to support two battleships and maintain a military advantage against countries that are being systematically crippled politically and economically.

They are crippling countries exactly because they will be unable to maintain their advantage; all that the other sides need to catch up and beat the Nazis is time. That's why they are scorching the earth as fast as possible.

But they won't be able to break USA and the Soviet Union, those places are just way too fucking big to level a city at a time.
>>
>>90138784
There's no way she's going to let Patton win anything.

If he tries he'll do well for a couple issues then get his shit kicked in out of nowhere by something.
>>
>>90138784
uberhitler isnt complaining about the food because of shortages, it's because he has to eat that glucose paste
>>
>>90138639
She very was fatigued at that point though, which leads to lowered abilities both on Physical and Halo enhancements, so they shouldn't have needed a direct hit at that point to inflict damage to her.
>>
>>90138861
uberhitler is not an uber.
>>
>>90138834
Rommel turned a new experimental technology (tanks) into a war-winning force that conquered France in a few weeks. Patton completely owned Rommel at his own game in north Africa.

Tankmen or the exactly same type of game-changing military assets, and Germany doesn't have anyone the caliber of Rommel anymore. So there's a good chance that Patton could do game changing tactics.

>>90138861
Hitler isn't an uber.
>>
>>90138344
"Mobility Kill" look it up you nigger. the significance is that she can no longer be rapidly deployed, this means if the allied high command can ever get a tab on her she is a non factor because they can move outmaneuver her if Patton every gets winds of how germany is protected by a non-moblie battleship he will have a field day in europe.
>>
>>90138964
I'm not talking about Patton's actual capabilities, i'm talking about the narrative.

>>90138770
There is a difference between wanting to see the Nazis just straight up lose and wanting to see them stop steamrolling every enemy they face and effortlessly counter every single weapon brought against them.

Count how many issues they had showing the build up of Jew Hulk just to have her get incapacitated in one page.

Are you going to say this is great story telling and pacing?
When right before Jew Hulk there was the a Battleship dropped right on London that just walked away without a scratch?
And before that building up Colossus?

That the biggest Ally victory was a complete miracle from the Russians getting a super halo stacked battleship despite not knowing how to make anything besides standard tankmen?

Compared to what? She was able to erect those towers in a night.
Despite her being immobilized she still was able to cripple the fastest land moving Uber to date.

She isn't able to be used as a front line battleship like the other two anymore. But she still was leading the front line of the burning of Britain.

How did her being physically injured prevent her from being utilized or deployed as fast as any of the halo stacked ubers?

>>90135729
Last issue was #3, so I guess we'll be seeing that ugly motherfucker soon. Who knows what he's up to in his tunnels. It sure would suck if he broke out and started killing germans everywhere around him.

Or, more likely, fakeHitler will order that Batlleship Zero be brought out for an offensive against Russia, like Barbarossa with superhumans this time. It backfires and the Germans have to divert precious ubers to handle their rogue creation while Patton ravages them in France. With Shankt gone and Stephanie split there's no one who'd really stand in Adolfs way if he were to order that Zero be used. After all they're winning, so why not secure their victory by every possible means?

>>90139535
Given his choice of when the story started, there really isn't much someone can do but use asspulls. By making the story kick off literally moments before Hitler shoots himself, it means you're dealing with a point where the German state basically doesn't exist anymore and the Wehrmact is just racing west to surrender to the western allies before the Soviets run them down.

If it had started, say, during the Ardennes Offensive it would have been a bit less reliant on asspulls. By April of 45 there really wasn't anything left. Some time in 44 would have worked better.

I don't know how to explain it in a simpler way but what made battleships so dangerous was the fact that they could rapidly deploy unnoticed, level everything in their vision and easily outpace anything that had the possibility to give pursuit. Sieglinde can no longer do that. Sieglinde is still an amazing asset by her nature of being a 12 stack halo but she lost her mobility and is actually prone to ambushes, if the allies went for kursk 4 Sieglinde is dead. Sieglinde is no longer a conventional tankman she is an artilleryman If you played F

Japan don't have battleships
German never gave them the information or technology

There was some panels that one Japanese complains everything went to shit when his uber test exploded, meaning he had battleship potential, but he was activated as a v2, those panels were just before be died.

Then she crippled the heavy battleship that was sent to ambush her, when the Germans didn't even know the heavy battleship could move

> if the allies went for kursk 4 Sieglinde is dead
except that nothing outside of battleship class halo powers can hurt her and when given halo support they managed to completely counter the Kursk style rush

>her impact is significantly lessened
She burned Britain and made them surrender when the other two battleships were moving to the US. She disabled the only other active battleship that was stacked to try and counter conventional battleships. Physical stack is so useless compared to halo stacks in this setting which is why a crippled battleship was able to beat Jew Hulk and why the conventional battleship lost to the Russian battleship with nothing but halo stacks.

If you go straight up halo stacks you get the unstoppable Russian battleship.
If you go straight physical you get something that can't even move.
If you go halo you can make fortifications and bombard enemies from a distance.
If you go physical you can't fucking catch something that moves a quarter of your sprint speed.

Physical is bad because it had to be so that the Nazis could curb stomp the Brits.

The battleship positive guy survived and was given orders to return home as soon as possible. We never hear from him again but well... I guess it would be silly not to expect a Japanese Battleship at this point.

Im sorta slogging through just to see it all end. What would be more interesting to me is an Über: Cold War version.

MacArthur's forces being pushed out the Yalu river by hordes of level 1 Chinese tankmen.

Imagine if Che was an über running rampage over africa and south america while being chased by CIA Über death squads.

American marines halooing villages in Vietnam.

Russian Übers fighting against Afghan suicide übers.

The Russians stationed a Maria level super sniper onto Cuba and Kennedy needs to decide how best to deal with this scenario.

What if one of the black cruiser übers joins the black panthers? Or a white one joins the KKK?

Thought Hideki left in a sub to parts unknown.

He's still a wild card, and it'll be a huge "fuck you" to the US if Japan somehow managed to get its hands on information on how to make a battleship from some "somewhere".

Well how the fuck did the germans get someone to carry the formula all the way to Japan in the first place?

>>90141162

Dunkirk was the perfect "physical" tankman mix. So quick even Blitzmensch cant track em and can rip regular tankmen to shreds. Could even throw a Juggernaut right into the English Channel and only died to save the Battleship.

All bets from my side is that they perfected HMS Churchill to be faster rather than BIG HUGE
>>
>>90141236
Dunkirk was a 5:1 so in theory 20:4 would be the right battleship mix
>>
>>90139105
All the issues building up jew hulk basically stated that it was a fucking stupid idea, and that they are going with it because it was all they had.
>>
>>90141530
the problem was that they thought that 24 physical was double than the 12 the german had, but thats not true, while not being exponential, the effects are much more

if they had gone with something more humble like a 20:4 or 18:6 they would have had a much better result
>>
>>90141761
At least with 18/6 they might have had someone comparable to a cruiser or something. With 23/1 the jew hulk couldn't even handle middleweight ships.
>>
>>90141851
i think cruisers are 6:6 or 10:2

a 18:6 would wipe cruisers in her breakfast
>>
>>90141467
That's probably not how it works in practice though, since jew hulk was unusable well before getting up to 23 physical.
>>
>>90141761
>>90141467
>>90141851


Wasnt Jew Hulk missing a final dosage or something? Maybe the last dosage is an asspull that makes her into a super powerful wrecking ball.

Also could someone explain the dosages again?

1:1 is normal tankman
3:1 is Heavy Tankman
1:3 is Blitz?

What are the cruisers and destroyers like? Or there versions of each forr the punch punch and the pew pew versions?
>>
>>90141924
Starting out with halos would've probably balanced that out
>>
>>90141914
Considering that physical doesn't seem to count for much, an 18/6 battleship is probably only somewhat superior to a 6/6 or 4/8 cruiser.
>>
>>90141951

Her last dosage was for halo, which stopped her from becoming an immobile mass of muscle tissue.
>>
>>90141951
Jew hulk got all her doses, they just switched the last one for halo instead of physical like they originally planned. She was 23:1 when she was deployed.

1:1 = Tankman
2:0 = Heavy Tankman
0:2 = Blitzmen
Destroyers have 6 total
Cruisers have 12
Heavy Cruisers have 18
Battleships have 24
>>
>>90142005
i don't really remember, but it took the german 4:8 cruisers 1 hour of continuous halo attack to break her knees, and the knees had bee. shaved so she could move

the physical factors defence too
>>
>>90142109
Yeah, it took a while, but they did bring her down. Physical just can't compete with halo. An 18/6 is certainly better than a 23/1, so it probably won't be outright worse than a 4/8 like a 23/1 is, but it won't necessarily be hugely better.
>>
>>90142005

Dunkirk, a 5:1 destroyer was able to keep up with what appeared to be cruiser levels with ease until he had to sacrifice himself.
>>
>>90142090
Heavy cruisers are an artificial class though. It's just battleships missing 6 activations.
>>
>>90142207
Physical doesn't scale up like halo does. Going mostly or even pure physical seems to work at low levels, but we haven't seen anything good come from pushing it past 12. Heavy tankmen are 2/0 and while not great they can at least move, but 24/0 would have been worthless.
>>
>>90142191
man a 2:0 can rip a 1:1 barehanded

a 18:6 or 20:4 would be extremely fast since they would be battleship sized but much stronger (ratio proven by dunkirk being tank man sized super strong and fast)

>Heavies meant to counter Normal tankmen

In comic reality, Blitz can easily wipe out squads of tankmen and heavies serve no real purpose outside protecting Blitzmensch. Since they arent particularily fast and theres enough time for a blitz to melt them down.

It won't. The story will end with Germany and Japan in a cold war against each other once they no longer have the allies to force them to cooperate.

>>90142346
It really depends when the physical stacks get to the point of crippling the person. HMS Churchill was barely able to move well before getting to 23 physical, so 20 physical is likely just too slow to keep up with a more balanced or halo focused ship. Where exactly physical stops giving more speed and starts just slowing you down because you're a bloated monstrosity is unclear, but it isn't at 23. It happens well before that. 18 physical might not be any faster than 6 physical.
>>
>>90141851
>With 23/1 the jew hulk couldn't even handle middleweight ships.

That's because they had better support, and were combat trained fighters. Jew Hulk peed herself when she was on a plane.

If she could've gotten her hand on the cruisers, she would've crushed them just by closing her hands. The thing was that they had constant support, there were 2 of them, and they had better training. They could dodge her fine for the hour it took for constant nonstop halo fire to rupture a single artery in the jew hulks leg.

If it was 1 on 1, she could've just do the Juggernaut Headcrush hyper x move, and if it misses, do it again. That's what she did to turn normal tankmen to paste a few pages before.
>>
>>90142465
I suppose Denmark and Norway are sorta lucky, in that Allies didn't manage to liberate them before the Burn was initiated.
>>
>>90142712
the halo effect counteract the muscle growth, that was why dunkirk had more physical stacks but was smaller than a 2:0

if you take account that dunkirk was 5:1 so the optimal battleship setup would be 20:4
>>
>>90139458
this is even more retarded than the German invasion.

99.9% of their navy and airforce was a wreck at the bottom of the ocean by this point in the war.

are they going launch an invasion with the one submarine they still had left?
>>
>>90142727
There's no reason to think she would have been able to lay a hand on them. Physical's diminishing returns are just too severe. Sure, she could crush normal tankmen, but heavy tankmen can do that too and they're not even very good themselves.
>>
>>90142514
>They were moving north towards London.

"towards London" is a pretty arbitrary measurement that could mean anything between 1-50 miles.
>>
>>90142856
They have a battleship and way more tankmen than the US. They can deploy them by sub and just start burning. It's not really an invasion, just complete annihilation. It solves the whole problem of them not being able to hold ground, just leave no ground to hold.
>>
>>90142712
The timing of the activations may also be a factor. Maybe she would've been fine if they did 11 physical, then a halo, then 13 physical. If the halo balances it out, then she might have been way too far in the muscle growth for a 24th halo activation to undo/fix it all.

>Jew Hulk peed herself when she was on a plane.
She had a phobia of planes.
She was able to jump really far before hand to get her and the scientist to relocate.

Sieglinde was a civilian before she got the Uber treatment and decided to fight for pretty much the same reasons as Jew Hulk.

It's still the same problem though. A physical stacked battleship couldn't match cruisers to the point where she couldn't even get a single hand on them. Her only accomplishment was that she could just charge through standard tankmen, panzers, and heavies.

Basically the Germans were able to effortlessly beat the Brits because they tossed one Battleship into the grinder for them, and the second was given a stack ratio that turned out to be horrible just so the Nazis could beat her easily.

That one guy was right. Jew Hulk would have been better dying in the fall so they could make armor for Dunkirk.

>this is even more retarded than the German invasion.

That wasn't that retarded, the Nazis had submarines working fine up till the end of the war. There was that one experimental sub that approached an allied ship completely undetected in 1945, and the only reason they did not attack was because they knew the war was already over, but they wanted to test their ship.
>>
>>90142883
Close enough to make whatever was left of parliament shit itself.
>>
>>90143188
Jewhulk was given no combat training at all. Sieg was at least tossed in to a 1v1 scenario with a tankman before being fielded.
That one guy is also one of the reasons jew hulk was given 20+ physical activation's because it looked so good on paper.
>>
>>90143993
She was put into a locked room with a severely under activated prisoner that couldn't hurt her after he hit her with everything he had.

Of course they will. the US has a tactical advantage on everything but battleships. Since they only have one white guy to be a battleship them having a second or third one would actually make things an even or better fight assuming they have proper training.

>>90145996
The US just doesn't have the manpower to repel the Germans, its leadership has been completely gutted, and battleships are roaming around freely destroying all its infrastructure and population. Even if they manage to repel the German battleships (plus the Japanese battleship attacking from the west), they're guaranteed to not be able to actually kill an Axis battleship, whereas they will probably lose one of their own due to the intentionally limited activation.

And even if they were able to kill one of the German battleships, the Germans will be able to come up with more.

Heavy cruisers. They got 18 activations instead of the 24 that they could have gotten. Real cruisers have 12 activations.
>>
>>90147062
The US has way fewer of every single class. Instead of three battleships, they only have one and a pair of heavy cruisers. They have basically nothing in terms of middleweight ships aside from those heavy cruisers, whereas the Germans have been rolling out cruisers. Aside from that their standard tankmen are completely ineffective. Germany, on the other hand, has been on the offense the whole time with their panzer/blitzmen who are flat out superior and the Germans have shown zero signs of running low.
>>
>>90147062
Battleships can only be countered with battleships.

Bullcrap.
Developing bomb more and producing them could take alot of time and reasorces (what were needed to other things or were lacking more and more). There is issue with delivering nukes, at best it would end up overrated V1 and V2 few times, only hurting UK. But Allies would most likely be more ruthless with bombing because of that.
Even if somehow they manage to use it alot and make Allies to make peace it would hardly be surrener, even UK.
You could ocupy UK and parts of Russia if you manage secure total capitulation but USA would be out of reach with lack of manpower and reasorces.

If nukes were war winning magic button Americans would use it on Soviet Union to beat soon after and it iddn't happen.
>>
>>90147293
Incorrect, they can only be evenly countered with battleships. The naval comparison is apt. A destroyer wasn't going to destroy a battleship, they simply didn't have the armor to withstand the battleship's weaponry for long enough to do any appreciable damage. However, in a pack even destroyers could kill a battleship as the battleship's mobility would be compromised and it'd be forced to split its fire while taking damage from multiple points.

So are we likely to see a far more powerful USSR post-war here than in reality? Since Europe is even more fucked than before, Britain is going down, and the US is actually taking damage (though as long as the heartlands aren't hit actual military and manufacturing abilities shouldn't be severely impacted).

The only way this ends anywhere near how it did in reality is if Patton runs fucking wild and manages to eat up enough territory to stop the Russians from just running over everything after the war.

Also, we haven't seen much of anything in the Eastern theater, but how fucked is China right now? Japan's gotta have them over a barrel at this point, with Ubers running roughshod over their territory.
>>
>>90148194
We haven't seen all that many Destroyers or Cruisers though.

10-15 Cruisers or 20-25 Destroyers (maybe a little less) would probably have a good shot against a Battleship, but there's no indication they've got that many of those classes.

In Uber, WW2 consists entirely of the the northern half of the Western Front, the center of the Eastern Front, Okinawa, London, and the eastern US seaboard. Logically at this point Japan should have been running Ubers against the Chinese and the Soviets, the minor Axis nations should have been retaken from the Soviets, Italy retaken, Spain allying with Germany, and the Nazis having functional domination over the Mediterranean, Middle East, and North Africa.
>>
>>90148269
The USSR has lost something like what a million more men, on top of the already horrendous casualties of our WW2. They had a large population but even they can't sustain those types of losses indefinitely.

Still I imagine that Europe, save perhaps for neutral countries like Spain, Portugal and Sweden, is going to be a whole lot poorer compared to our history. Not just because of the Great Burn, but any Marshall Plan will the Americans will produce is going to focus first on rebuilding the homefront.
>>
>>90148736
I don't think it's likely Japan has the resources at the moment to mount any sort of serious offensive against the Soviets, since they're likely focused on retaining their territory in China and Korea, and trying to secure sources of oil again as fast as they can. It would be cool to see the Chinese trying to figure out new tactics against the Japanese Ubers without any of their own, (since I doubt anyone has the time to provide them with catalyst)

Narratively: that's a distinct and real possibility, although I hold out hope that they do something more then either "lol Nazis win" or at the very least if they win make it an interesting win rather then them just wining because they have the battleships.although I hope the Americans win because im an unabashed burger

logisticallywhich is what half the arguments in this thread are about : I don't think its as simple as that. others have pointed out the Nazis have their work cut out for them.as another anon said I would love to see a superpowerd Patton running roughshod over Europe with his "goodtime boys"
>>
>>90149185
I'm holding out hope Patton can form the core of a good arc. I don't think it's all that likely though.

I mean he has to do something, Patton's aggressive as shit and now he has fucking superpowers. Even if he's just a Tankman (which is pretty likely), the real-life Patton already thought he had a grand destiny to go to war, turning into a freaking war machine might actually drive him nuts.

Though i'd personally love for him to be a Destroyer, just so we can see him beat the shit out of a bunch of Nazis personally.
>>
>>90148853
Without the deployment of Allied Ubers to mainland China even a handful of Japanese tankmen should have rolled over the Chinese. By the way, given the ratios thrown about, the Japanese should have been able to make a little over 200 Ubers from their forces stationed in China.
>>
>>90143993
All allied Ubers needed to receive SAS style training before being activated. It would have been great to see the allies trying to fend off the Germans before unleashing their properly trained super human army.
>>
>>90141010
>I bet you think Operation Sealion was a hair's breadth from succeeding too.

If they kept bombing the radar stations and airfields, it would have.
>>
>>90150624
Something that hasn't been brought up in a very long while is that the Allies, America in particular, produced so many Ubers that they're able to rotate out combat units. At this point in the story even fresh out of boot Ubers should have a fair grasp of Uber tactics and combat and be mixed in with more experienced Uber units.
>>
>>90150624
I wonder how many German Ubers are young kids at this point. Since it'd probably be hard to tell since the process would make them taller and ripped, and there's no way Germany had enough military age males left to make this many Ubers.
>>
>>90150729
Lord, no. They couldn't hit manufacturing, a lot of the airfields they were bombing were dirt and grass so they could be repaired in a few hours with shovels, they lacked the pilot reserve to effectively replace losses, their escorts were incapable, either through fuel issues or poor capabilities, to effectively defend against British fighters, their bombers all had deficiencies that hampered their effectiveness, their intelligence was a joke, and the British were performing strategic bombing against the German forces constantly. That's just a brief summary of why the Germans lost the Battle of Britain, Operation Sealion wasn't supposed to commence until after the Nazis won the BoB. No competent military strategist, and that includes the Nazi High Command, believed that Operation Sealion was feasible.
>>
I actually just finished reaading through the last bits of this and the Allies have actually won a couple of battles. Russia ran them out out of their land, although they stopped 'cuz plot convenience. on the eastern front the US is actually pressing quite a bit forward, it's just slowed down due to the japanese Miyoko making the US wait for their own tankmen to bring them down.

So the current status
-The three spies are dead(maybe not the one that Turing lobotomized?)
-Katyusha straight up took off with Russia's higher potential candidates
-Jew Hulk incapacitated, who knows where because Turing and the bitch that helped start this mess are in America
-jap battleship potential is heading to the US, more than likedly activated to at least heavy cruiser because the Americans don't have enough problems already (conveniently bypassing the massive naval forces)

With all that, yes the allies have 'won' in that they've taken a few armies out. However, there has been no DECISIVE victory, because this would in fact end the series.
Gillen has written himself into a corner however, because now the germans DEFINITELY DO NOT have enough resources to bring their army back to Europe. So unless Kieron pulls another massive asspull, like Mexico joining in or something, this SHOULD be the turning point for the allies.

That all being said,

>>90145621
Probably got tired of having to draw the same shit over and over. This other guy sucks.
>>
>>90150929
The usual given ration is that for every Uber candidate you'll have 5000 non-candidates and battleships are to Ubers what Ubers are to normal people. The only way for that to hold true with what we've seen in the comic, four German battleship candidates, is for Gillen to have used the total pre-war population of Germany as a base.
>>
>>90151774
>because now the germans DEFINITELY DO NOT have enough resources to bring their army back to Europe.

They literally sailed a fleet of submarines into a major American harbor undetected to deploy them and those same Ubers have now thoroughly wrecked any coastal defenses located nearby. It's not a matter of a decisive victory, those are rare in real life, it's that the Allies have won exactly one strategic victory, Maria vs. Klaudia, and that was more or less negated by Maria fucking off to Siberia.
>>
>>90148853
The simplest way is to destroy their shitty glucose manufacturing/shipping lines. Ubers literally cannot survive without their rations and can't even forage for real food.
>>
>>90151912
To get 4 battleships with that rate, you would need 100 million people. Germany has never had that many people.

I think it's safe to assume that the Germans have some way of improving their odds of getting battleships, which means they could possibly have even more waiting to be activated.
>>
>>90152304
It would be somewhat funny to see the Siegfried, Siegmund and the invading German Ubers die off primarily due to starvation.
>>
>>90152479
There will probably be a text box that says a bunch of the grunts starved, but it won't effect anything because the US has nothing that can touch two veteran battleships.
>>
>>90152556
More like the grunts will be forced to give food to the battleships.
>>
>>90151774
> Gillen has written himself into a corner however, because now the germans DEFINITELY DO NOT have enough resources to bring their army back to Europe.
Sure they do. Right now thanks to the blitzmen Germany has total sea supremacy. They can come and go as they please.

And if Mexico were to join in, they would of course be joining in on the Nazi side, because that would be an extremely easy "shocking" revelation that things have suddenly gotten even worse, and we must have one every issue.
>>
>>90152556

I just rounded up since you can't have part of a person.
>>
>>90152367
I wonder what Germany will name their next crop of battleships. Hopefully they won't keep using Sieg-whatever names.
>>
>>90152671
Germany's population maxed out in the high 70 millions. 75 million gets you three battleships. You don't get the numbers to justify four unless you include conquered territories like Poland, and I would imagine that a Polish battleship would probably not be favorably disposed toward the Nazis.
>>
>>90152830
Going by the numbers, America should have a fifth battleship, yet it doesn't. Population is clearly not the deciding factor, there has to be something else at work. It would help explain why Germany has so many more of every type of uber than anyone else, despite having a smaller population than either the US or the Soviet Union.
>>
>>90152830
If you include Austria, the Sudetanland and Memelland you get a little over 80 million, which using a 5000:1 ratio nets you 16120 Ubers and 3.2 battleships. Granted that is total population.
>>
>>90153107
Census figures put the total German population in May of 1939 at 79 million. That's including Austria, the Sudetenland, and Memelland. You don't get over 80 million until the conquest of Poland.
>>
>>90153070
The UK should have at least one more battleship, Japan should have 2 more battleships; there could easily be acceptable in-universe reasons as to why they haven't found them like being too young, too old, or otherwise physically excluded from testing, but it's just never mentioned.
>>
>>90153344
Those are reasons to have fewer than you theoretically would. That doesn't explain Germany also having more than they theoretically should.
>>
>>90153206
Using the May 1939 census results gets you 15875.05 Ubers with 3.175 battleships.
>>
>>90153422
Like I said, rounding up. Battleship Zero counts for the decimals. Strictly speaking all the numbers should be lower as they're based on total population. The real issue is that the numbers mean that the Germans can only field a single division of Ubers, split between two fronts; logically the Allies should be constantly breaking the Nazi lines as there shouldn't be enough Ubers to cover them.

>not rooting for the nazis
You still asking for logic in a complete fantasy scenario. Every single american super hero comic is about a hero who foils the big bads plan as it unfolds, punches everyone and saves the day in every issue. The biggest setback the writes can think of is killing a minor character or sometimes the main just to resurrect him after a while and start the whole thing from the beginning.

Über does the exact same thing with the "bad guys" and you have problems with that because they don't wear Stars 'n' Stripes.

Part of the reason the comic starts when Germany is almost defeated is to create the exact same scenario most comic book stories are about: the underdog against the big empire. You can root for the nazis because they are supposed to be one major defeat away from losing, while the whole world is against them. Just like in cape comics.

Uber has the same problem as Injustice in that it's plot has to be restricted to sustain its premise. Like Injustice, it has to handwave over a lot of issues to maintain that premise. Why didn't the Allies resume night bombing since the Ubers require line of sight? Why didn't all the villains gang up on Superman when he went dictator? How are the Nazis maintaining two fronts stretching hundreds of miles with a few thousand Ubers? Why didn't Firestorm just turn Superman's pants to Kryptonite?

Once you've got readers questioning the basic competency of one of your sides it's not a good place to be in. If the Nazis are supposed to be the good guys then there is no tension, as they're steamrolling; if they're supposed to be the bad guys then they're boring.
>>
I saw Uber was good when it was still WW2 with super solders and some status quo was maintained on European front but it went shitter after Nazis started winning and wining, like 2 last issues before Invasion.
>>
>>90159457
Allies don't have blitzmen. Aside from the halo battleship that the Soviets made by accident, they can't produce ubers that have more halo activations than physical ones.
>>
>>90158976
Unless eventual Flight stacks makes ubers with them capable of super sonic speeds, all they'll be doing is making themselves easier targets Halo-slanted enemy ubers.
>>
>>90152830
That's not how chance works. Sometimes you get more and sometimes you get less than the expected value. There's a 30% chance to get four or more out of 70 million with a 1/25 million chance. Those aren't terrible odds.
>>
>>90160100
Which means that the real question isn't why the Germans have four battleships, it's how many more battleships do the Germans have?

The chances of having more than the expected amount diminish rapidly the higher you go. 1-5 is what you'd normally expect. Anything outside that and you start going into single digit percent chances.

Unlike Injustice, Uber has the advantage of low time frame.
Injustice is now at.... Year 5?
And DC comics is a place where i would argue that 60% of the Rooster of the Justice League can "kill" Superman, which makes the entire Kryptonite Bullet subplots shitty as fuck.

Meanwhile Uber starts at April 1945, and we are still in 1945.
Latest chapter takes place mid November 1945.
Superior British Spy network? Its why Allies even can field Ubers

>>
>>90160853
Trevor is black though, which, given Gillen's socio-political outlook, makes it unlikely he'll be the one to bite it next issue. Eamonn seems the far more likely candidate to die like a bitch without doing squat to the germans.
>>
>>90160869
> Superior British Spy network
Except that the allies have been getting completely trashed in the spy game. So what if they have ubers? The Germans always know where and how to counter them. The western allies basically don't have ubers for all the good it's done them.
>>
>>90160854
I wouldn't put it past Gillen to give them more even if it would be improbable. He could make a text box saying how it was super unlikely, but that the Germans really did just get that lucky.

Beyond The Super Spies, German spy effort has been a net loss in Uber.
The only reason they aren't losing more, is that Ubers means they no longer need to use Enigma for troop movement.
Among other things.

>The three spies are dead(maybe not the one that Turing lobotomized?)
not confirmed in the pages but Gillen wrote in his tumblr that they're all gone
>>
>>90162030
The Germans have been able winning in the intel game at every turn. Just look at the invasion, which was a huge operation that dropped two battleships and a huge army of tankmen right in the middle of the eastern seaboard and took out the capital. Or Sieglinde offing Churchill and the deployment of the blitzmen allowing her to escape from Britain unscathed. Or them being able to steal heavy tankmen and use them ten times as effectively as the allies ever did. Or the whole fiasco with the atomic bomb, not only crippling the allied nuclear program but giving the axis the bomb.

The only time the allies have been able to win an intelligence victory was the very beginning when they acquired ubers in the first place, but that hasn't changed anything for the western allies. Only the Soviets have been able to actually do anything with the ubers, for the west they might as well just not have them for all the difference they're making, so that one intel victory is meaningless.
>>
>>90161296
The British conventional spy network bought the allies a fighting chance by giving them über tech. The German über spy network is spent. They have nothing left. The only thing they had going for them were the über spies and they have all been compromised.

spies require a shitton of catalyst, but yes that's valid. besides the catalyst investment they haven't mentioned any other limitations to spy activation, like battleships
if Gillen does another "but wait, there's more!" "what a twist!" with super spies I will flip a table
>>
>>90162302
Now that the German über spies are gone, that can change. No longer will the Germans acquire all allied tech, know of allied troop movements and be able to sabotage allied assets. The playing field has been leveled.

Gillen said he'd focus a few issues in the future showing just how fucked the German homeland is. Here's hoping

I think the spies are a closed chapter unless the allies get some use of the tech. They've served their purpose in the story and have all been properly dealt with.
>>
>>90162397
> Now that the German über spies are gone
There's nothing stopping them from just making more. Then the Germans will go right back to acquiring all allied tech, knowing all allied movements, and sabotaging all allied assets as if the allies had never taken out the super spies.

It's not just an issue of the homeland. The thing is they just don't have the numbers to hold out. As pointed out earlier, 1 in 5k only gives Germany about 16k ubers of any type. The Soviets alone would have 34k, more than twice their numbers. On top of that, most of Germany's big guns have been running around on deep strike missions against London, Paris, the US east coast, etc. So what is keeping the massive eastern front from collapsing? Where are they getting all their ubers to simultaneously fight everyone at once and not only hold but advance and win?

Okay, so they have two more standard tankmen who happen to be famous people. So what? Patton and Turing weren't important because of their ability to punch someone's head off. They were an important general and an important mathematician respectively.
>>
>>90162635
Apart from Katyusha, the Soviets have only basic tankmen, no way to research new tech and limited production. If the Soviets try to move ahead without Katyusha, they'll get slaughtered by heavy tankmen and ship classes.
>>
>>90162692
they each eliminated a super spy and the allies would benefit much more with them than without
>>
>>90162635
The Soviets only have one battleship though, and she fucked off to Siberia with a bunch of potentials. Without them, it doesn't matter how many tank men the Soviets have, they don't have anything but the basics so they can't win. They also don't know much about the super spies, so as soon as the Germans produce more they can start running wild through the Soviet hierarchy.
>>
>>90162784
Given that Germans outnumber both Soviets and Muricans combined, not to mention their advantage in quality. Couldn't they just send like 100k tankmen/blitzmen and 12k cruisers or something like that and gangbang Soviet girl?

The aim of the Blitz wasn't to destroy radars and airfields to prepare Sealion, though.

It was to force the UK to accept peace negociations because the civilians would stop to support the war... or so it was believed.

Sealion would have needed Germany to defeat the Royal Navy, which they weren't even close of doing.
As long as the Royal Navy was still a thing, any invasion of Britain was doomed.
Sure, the landings could go well but then it would have taken only a few days for the Navy to move in position to blocade the beachheads and cut all supplies to the german forces.

It takes 2 activations each of a couple of grams catalyst to make a standard tank-man. From what we saw of the scope of Katyusha's matter-warping skills at Kiev, all she would have had to do before going to Siberia was transmute a 20 foot cube of dirt into catalyst, and the soviets would have enough of the shit activate every uber potential in soviet territory twice over.
>>
>>90163769
the writer gives a lot of credit to individual spies.
Stephanie did the exact same thing for the uber tech, she destroyed their catalyst plants and brought everything to the allies
>>
>>90163769
Not spies, spy. Singular. It only took a single german spy to kill everyone involved in the manhattan project, destroy all the facilities, and deliver a bomb to the Axis.
>>
>>90162302
>Giving the axis the bomb

a bomb
Not the technology behind it, which will still need months of reverse engineering.
Not the actual capacity to produce them, since that requires a good amount of ressources.

Most of the world's uranium is produced out of Axis territory.
Even if it was, the Axis would need the industrial infrastructure to produce A-bombs, which would need time... and they don't have that because every day, new tankmen are being produced by the USSR and the USA.
Worst, in barely a few weeks, the USA will have battleships.
>>
>>90162592
It reasonable to not give to much power to mironities who you treat kinda crap because it will bite you in ass later (and dont tell me that mironities are only nice and want equal right, there are alot of racist pricks or just thugs and extremist).
But it is retarded if nazis are browing up your own cities and you cant stop them.

>she destroyed their catalyst plants

Which, from what we can tell of the speed with which the germans managed to create both havies, blitzes, and bring their destroyers and cruisers online after they acquired the relevant information, did fuck-all to german catalyst production.

In barely a few weeks there will be no USA.
>>
>>90164066
Nope, they subsist of a diet of concentrated glucose paste.
>>
>>90164045
The Germans have consistently been ahead technologically on all other fronts in Uber, so that won't be a problem. Similarly they are now in the lead in terms of resources and production since Britain is out, the US is about to become a barren wasteland empty of life, and the Soviets have lost their only battleship. They can just out industry the allies.
>>
>>90162692
It means these dudes survived.
And their contribution to the war, even as non-uber, wasn't negligeable.

Please keep in mind that the Axis will have at best a few thousands of ubers while the Allies and Soviets, even without activating blacks and indians, can have ten times that many.

Doesn't mean they aren't wasting ressources like in the last issue.
But they can afford to be wasteful. The Axis cannot at all.

There'll be no eastern seabord. Unless one of the nazi ubers figures out how to transmute that nutrient slop they need to keep themselves fed, they'll have to stay near the coast to be re-supplied via sub.

>>90164177
>But they can afford to be wasteful. The Axis cannot at all.
This. Once the battleships are gone they're fucked. I didn't want to see Siegfried fall since it was only issue 3. But I did want to see him beat up, fucked up, and lose one or two limbs. But we couldn't get even that.
>>
>>90164177
The axis have way more ubers than the US or the soviets because the allies group their ubers up in batches of a few hundred and march them straight at battleships that slaughter them effortlessly. That leaves very few ubers to fight the panzer/blitzmen, who on top of that are vastly superior to allied tankmen.

>>
>>90164270
> Once the battleships are gone they're fucked.
They have more battleships than anyone else, and that's not counting how many more they still have yet to find and activate. Plus they have blitzmen who slaughter allied tankmen and halo cruisers/destroyers who are a match for allied battleships.
>>
>>90164348
She left for Siberia and took a bunch of potentials with her to start a cult. She's been MIA ever since. The Soviets don't even have her for defensive operations anymore.
>>
>>90164270
They still have spy ubers, and since halo beats physical their standard ubers and middleweight ships still beat the allies, even without their battleships. Remember, their cruisers can beat one of the only allied battleships without even getting touched.
>>
>>90164307
They have more for now.
The same way Germany had more troops than the Allies in 1939 but was outclassed 3:1 by the end of the war by USA alone.
The Allies are mobilizing progressively, as they didn't have the luxury of several years to test the technology.
The Germans are rushing everything they have because they have to.
>>
>>90164477
Soon the Allies won't have anything to mobilize.
>>
>>90164396
Don't the Soviets have a spy among said potentials whose job is to report on her ?
I guess they could always send a plane to her location and ask her to come back because "Motherland needs you. Millions of lives are at stake"
>>
>>90164477
The allies were able to eventually outnumber Germany because they had larger civilian populations to draw from. The US, however, is getting completely culled and so it won't have the population to match Germany. The Soviets have the problem that their only heavyweights are fucking around, and standard tank men just can't compete with even blitzmen, never mind destroyers, cruisers, and battleships.

Also, any mobilization attempt can easily be thwarted by spy ubers, giving the Germans plenty of time to finish steamrolling the allies.
>>
>>90164524
They only need people and time.

The germans can't genocide the whole countries overnight.
If it takes one month to activate a tankman, then you can count on the USA having thousands of them ready by the time the germans get to Los Angeles.
>>
>>90164445
>their cruisers can beat one of the only allied battleships without even getting touched.
churchill really isn't a good indicator. they kited her for over a half hour because she was so damn slow. if she managed to grab one their head would've popped like a cork
you can be sure a full 12:12 battleship would dominate a cruiser

>>90115848

I hope he has the guts to let the Axis win. Would be refreshing and the logical conclusion since the gap in Battleships is totally in favour of them.

>>
>>90164597
Still so stupid that she was considered slow when she could run and move faster than any other uber.

Like if someone had so many halo stacks they developed a minimum range to use their ability.
Of course it's what the Brits picked, so it had to be self defeating.
>>
>>90164671
They would just get a small headache, nothing that a nap and some extra glucose paste wouldn't solve.
>>
>>90164590
Except that they already have genocided whole countries overnight. It only took them a few days to completely annihilate the entire population of the low countries. The area between Boston and DC is only somewhat larger, so they'll be able to completely cull several high population states in a week or so.
>>
>>90164590
Time that they don't have and aren't getting. Or did you miss the part where the germans are now scouring a major US city of the face of the earth every few days or so? Or that Holland and Belgium are simply *gone*, with northern France currently getting the same treatment, and that the UK has capitulated?
>>
>>90164699
she's like a train. she can run fast in one direction but it was hard for her to maneuver

>>90164710
if that were the case the allies would have lost a long time ago

>>90164726
they wipe out cities overnight, not countries. Belgium is tiny compared to the US
>>
>>90164644
It took them nearly a month to go from Antwerp to Britain and that's barely a few hundreds miles.
The rural population of the USA in the 40s was well over 30%.

Now add India and the other colonies of the UK and Free France, which they WILL have to put into play eventually, and you get why Germany is fucked.

It only takes a single big defeat and Germany is over.
While the Allies can afford at least two more and still stay in the game.
>>
>>90164763
Sure, Belgium is tiny compared to the entire US, but if you just look at the DC to Boston corridor, it's not much bigger than the low countries. They'll be able to exterminate all of them in a few days, and that will take a massive bite out of the US population. Then it might take them a few weeks to take out the midwest and the south, but that's still the majority of the US population killed in less than a month.
>>
>>90164763
I get that she can sprint fast in one direction, but it's stupid that she can't even turn around enough to attempt lunging at one of the cruisers.
But what I was saying is that physical stacks develope negative attributes.
Halo stacks don't.
It seems like the physical stacks developed negatives because the Brits were exclusively so they would be the only ones to suffer and would ensure they lose.
>>
>>90164802
The Brits have already said that they won't activate any Indians or other colonials, so that's not an issue for the Germans.
>>
>>90164802
>It only takes a single big defeat and Germany is over
Germany's battleships have consistently been able to slip away from any defeat since Gillen doesn't want any of them to die. Aside from that, Germany has basically an unlimited supply of lesser ubers, since their losses never seem to actually amount to anything. The allies, on the other hand, are stuck with limited resources that are usually wasted and force them to just let the German's run amok because they don't have the numbers or the quality to compete with the Germans.
>>
>>90164726
>annihilate the entire population of the low countries
They blow Antwerp and every cities between it and Calais.
Not the whole of Belgium and Netherland.
It still took them a full month to do it.
>>
>>90164852
I agree, it's pretty bullshit and frustrating. that they went "let's just smash 24 loads of physical on this poor girl without considering how bad it could be" is pretty irresponsible, just like letting colossus engage sieglinde when he was maybe only cruiser level
>>
>>90164855
They said it before Calais, when they thought jewgirl would win the day.

Doesn't mean they cannot change their opinion now that they've lost Britain.
>>
>>90164969
Though now they've given up, so there still won't be Indian ubers.
>>
>>90164924
>unlimited
VERY limited

It's just that it doesn't show for now because, like conventional war in 1939, it's the beginning.
Wait for attrition to make its way.

Germany had a population of 69 millions in 1945.
That's about 1400 uber potential at best.

UK had a population of 46 millions
USA had a population of 140 millions
USSR had a population of 170 millions
That's about 7000 uber potentials.

That's five times more than the Germans.

Sure, Japan and Italy can have their own tankmen... but then let's factor China in too.

In the long term, the Axis cannot win unless it genocide half the planet.
And unless it can do that before at least 1500 enemy ubers are activated, it's over.
>>
>>90165122
Bad calculation : they agreed to capitulate. Doesn't mean they can't come back.

It's not a video game where the population suddenly become undyingly loyal to its conquerors.
Think of the French who went to Britain to fight another day even though France had capitulated.
Now imagine that instead of an underground resistance, the British just organize clandestine testing, same as what the blacks did in the USA when it was refused to them.
Patriots who are revealed as potentials are shipped to Spain and, from there, to India... where the colonial administration is free to do as it pleases.
>>
>>90165174
>In the long term, the Axis cannot win unless it genocide half the planet.
That whole genocide thing goes pretty well for them, not like it matters, unless Allies will get some heavyweight ubers ASAP they're done for anyway, ten thousand of basic bitch tankmen wont accomplish much.
>>
>>90164962
The colossus issue is still so shitty because the issue before showed a tankman getting crushed by a jeep for not waiting until the activation was finished.

But the Brits had to kill off their own battleship
>>
Did the Dominions capitulate as well ore are they still in play>
>>
>>90165174
That's all true in terms of real world facts, but in the Uber storyline the Germans have way more ubers. On top of that, the allies have trouble deploying their own, whereas the Germans can concentrate their forces for every attack and strike where they please because they have total sea supremacy.

The UK is out of the war, so their population no longer matters, and soon the US won't have a meaningful population.

As for genociding half the planet, what's stopping them from doing just that? The allies have nothing that can match the German battleships, so they can just roam around annihilating countries with impunity.
>>
>>90165234
It does mean that the population is effectively no longer contributing to the allies.

> Now imagine that instead of an underground resistance
Which can be easily countered by spy ubers. Worse, the potentials can be intercepted and forced to serve the Nazis.
>>
>>90165256
Yeah, I'm kind of salty that both of Britain's battleships were completely useless wastes. And it looks like the American battleships are going to get pissed away too. The only fully activated one can't fight, and the other two are purposefully gimped so they can't compete with a standard battleship.
>>
>>90165369
together the 9:9's will be able to take down a 12:12, though I'm pretty sure one or both are gonna be fucked up afterwards

more likely all three will engage the german battleships, the 12:12 kid will choke, causing the older black brother to die and making the younger brother even more resentful of everyone
>>
>>90165440
Colossus was in battle for seconds before a fully activated battleship ripped his arms off and turned him into a meat Christmas tree.
No, cruisers will not be able to stand up to them.
>>
>>90165440
man id love for the kid to man up and start taking the Germans to task, but I know there's like a 99% chance that he will fuck up, get someone killed because of his fuck up and then die because of said fuck up.
>>
>>90165247
But that's the power of statistic, anon :
with a pool five time greater, they have much more luck getting destroyer, cruiser and battleship potentials.

They could just as well hit back at Germany with small teams of tankmen lead by a single destroyer, burning all of Germany's infrastructure before Germany could react.

Even if they lost those teams, they could still make more while Germany would be finished.
Like I said : a single defeat for Germany and it's over... while the allies can afford a few more.
>>
>>90165174
>China

There's no indication that China has access to any catalyst.
>>
>>90165615
A small team of blitzmen would be enough to sodomize all these small teams combined, even if you somehow managed to kill every single German and raze every production facility, farm and factory in Europe it wouldn't hinder them in any way.
>>
>>90165615
>Like I said : a single defeat for Germany and it's over... while the allies can afford a few more.

That's the entire problem with the story line. We're not going to see major consequences for the Germans until the end. So everything up till then is just going to be "The Allies almost managed to win...then this happened." Every fucking time.

Then at the end eventually the German Battleships will be taken out, then we'll see the Allies roll over Germany. The plot of this comic is so obvious to foresee that it sucks all the enjoyment out of it.
>>
>>90164590
>The germans can't genocide the whole countries overnight.
you obviously have not been reading Uber.

Germany will defeat and lay waste to ALL of the americas within a week. Japan, with 1 sub full of japanese fuckers and a battleship class will rule America with a large yellow dick and iron fist. In a few issues they will wrap up the American story line and switch back to the European conflict. This is written in stone, the Americans will soon be irrelevant.


Think I am wrong? Then why is Avatar Press owned by Breitbart?
>>
>>90165308
>Spy ubers
...are over.
They don't have hundreds of them and a single photography or CCTV could expose them.

>Serve the Nazis

Do you really want to make potentially hostile civilians into walking tanks ?

Concentration camps could be held by a small amount of german soldiers because these had machineguns and the prisoners didn't.
But the difference between a uber civilian and an uber soldier is close to none.
>>
>>90163505
Also, the *do* know how to identify and activate destroyers, cruisers, and battleships now.
Identify, yes. Activate, no. They're hoping Katyusha will do that for them.
>>
>>90165527
You will see that the Blacks are shown to be inferior in every way when the chips are down. This comic has an agenda and the negroids are in no way shape or form part of that agenda.

Yet somehow Germany has more ubers than nations with vastly more people. In a numbers game, Germany wins.

> ...are over.
No they aren't. They've eliminated three. The Nazis can just make more of them. As for cameras, that's not as effective as you might think. A lot of places don't have cameras, and even if they do it relies on an operator who knows exactly what each person who is supposed to be there looks like. In most military facilities, that won't be the case. And any sort of British resistance probably won't even have the cameras needed for that imperfect level of security.
>>
>>90165266
The Allies have nothing right now.
They have time, demography and geography for them.

It took a month for the German to go from Antwerp to Calais.
That's barely 120 miles and it was in a straight line.

It takes a single month to activate a batch of 1:1 tankman.
If it takes 6 months for the German invasion to reach the East Coast, that's thousands of tankmen that can be fielded, with battleships, destroyers and cruisers among them.
>>
>>90165995

Thats because they have made a decision that they would rather be burned by nazi lightning until there is no nation left, rather than being ruled by a negro superman after it saves them.

Three issues, tops. Three issues and America will be no more and they will leave the smoldering ruins of the USA and go back to Europe where the real fight is happening. The USA is a distraction, filler. The united states is nothing but a filler arc.
>>
>>90165720
Again, no indication RIGHT NOW.

How long does it takes to send a plane from Okinawa to Bejing ?
How long to have the major chinese cities tested for potential ?
Remember we are talking about a people that build in 3 months a mountain road the British said would take 3 years : to mobilize the masses is in there nature.
>>
>>90166086
Couldn't they just look for more white heavy hitters after 2 giga niggas and white boi saved an entire continent from genocide?
>>
>>90165728
They got to catch that team first... which is the same problem the americans had with the invasion force.

The Blitzmen aren't fast, strong or durable.
They are just mobile line-of-sight artillery.

For what we know, the americans could just keep bombing the position of the invaders with conventional artillery and shred the blitzmen to bits.
>>
>>90166065
>Can just make more.
Germany has limited amounts of remaining catalyst and potential ubers. Spies take vast amounts of catalyst and time to activate, and now the element of surprise is lost, resources are better spent on traditional human weapons.
>>
>>90166078
And when piss away your numerical superiority by throwing 300 tank-men at a time at 2 battleships supported by heavies, panzermensch, blitzmensch, destroyers and cruisers, those numbers won't actually help you.
>>
>>90166128
Who's going to send them catalyst? Britain is done and America is pretty fucking busy. They're probably dragging everyone they possibly can out of the Pacific back to the home front.

Also, what the shit are Canada and Australia doing during all of this? Do they not exist?
>>
>>90166181
Battleships render the Germans immune to artillery, as they can just destroy the shells in flight.
>>
>>90166181
>The Blitzmen aren't fast, strong or durable.
>They are just mobile line-of-sight artillery.

Please refer to the image in >>90139245 for why that's not actually a limitation at all.
>>
>>90166128
> RIGHT NOW
People have been saying this forever now. Oh, sure the allies are losing now, but just wait until they get the bomb! Then the bomb gets delivered to the axis and the entire Manhattan project gets burned to the ground all by a single german spy uber. Then people said that HMS Churchill would turn things around. But that didn't happen either. Instead HMS Churchill was taken down by German cruisers without so much as scratching them.

I see no reason to think that it's going to change. This is a comic, and in comics status quo is god. It's much more likely that what we see now is just going to continue indefinitely in order to continue making money, no matter how the story suffers from the repetition.
>>
>>90166297
Plus, they still have some level of physical enhancement (probably like Captain America level). So they're not exactly slow.
>>
>>90166206
> Germany has limited amounts of remaining catalyst and potential ubers
The comic hasn't portrayed it that way. In the actual story, they seem to have plenty of both, enough that they could just devote resources to spy ubers even if the allies do have some countermeasures just because they have plenty to throw around.
>>
>>90157286
I am disappoint. It seems that they are going to pointlessly draw this arc out, having America just take hit after hit before bouncing back, or maybe never actually coming back from this. The decompression isn't good for the book.
>>
>>90166393
As said before, this is a "Man in the High Castle" story, meaning that the Axis wins in the end. So no, they won't bounce back.

>>90165904
honestly I don't feel like there's and agenda going on here. just some bad writing mixed in with some cool shit.

I think some of the criticisms in this thread are unwarranted and others have merit. the British fuckups made a bit off sense, the pushed colossus into a fight before he was ready and he got wrecked, they used jew hulk when it was clear she had no combat experience and their were limitations on her, that said id have like to see her crush one of the heavy cruisers just to show that she wasn't a complete joke.

what im not fine with is like others have already said many time before is the fact that they aren't showing the fact that Germanys hurting in any real capacity be that ubers, regular military, infrastructure, etc, etc. that and the outlandish assupulls like Sieglinde surviving the assault on Brittanmostlyunscathed

im also not a big fan of the "no one is safe, anyone can die" trope. Don't get me wrong people need to die, especially in a war comic I just feel like its just there for shock value and the "tweest", rather then making sense in the story. it makes it harder for me to get behind a character knowing that they will probably die horribly a page later and often time it make it easy to guess who's going to die ironically enough. like when we first meet razor and chuck, I could tell the second I saw him that chuck was a deadman.

Overall I like the comic flaws and all and want to see where it goes and then evaluate it to see if its more then the sum of its parts.

>>
>>90166523
>the fact that they aren't showing the fact that Germanys hurting in any real capacity be that ubers,

Just the last issue had Hitler complaining that he is forced to eat shit because they are so badly hurting economically.
>>
>>90166686
Oh no, fake!Hitler has to eat poor quality food. That is clearly something horrible on the level of the surrender of Britain or the annihilation of the US eastern seaboard.
>>
>>90166686
fair point, but it took 20+ issues to show one thing. granted this could be the point in the story when shit starts actually to go bad for Germany, but ass pulls are as always, a distinct and real possibility.
>>
>>90166346
The comics barely covered a 6 months period, mind you.
>>
>>90166686
Telling rather than showing is a mark of poor writing. Right now, Germany's economic situation is simply something that is occasionally remarked on but has little impact on the actual storyline. Much more is needed.
>>
>>90166892
A sixth month time period beginning from the absolute nadir of Nazi Germany. The story begins literally moments before Hitler shoots himself, at which point Germany was a smoldering ruin full of starving people. They wouldn't have survived another six months of war, the German people would simply be dead from starvation, to say nothing of the number who would freeze to death once October rolled around because of the total lack of heating or intact shelter.

To suddenly go from that to Germany defeating Britain and forcing it to surrender as well as launching an invasion of the continental US is less believable than the ubers themselves.
>>
>>90166414
I swear there was some in-universe documentation or narration in one of the pre-Invasion issues that implies the Allies win in the end, because of the perspective from which it was written.
>>
>>90166938
>>90167062
Why does everyone keep talking about economic situations and German survivors like the Nazis are trying to win the war?

They're not trying to win anything. They're trying to make everyone else lose with them.
>>
>>90167062
Remember that the Axis now has near total control of the world's oceans. They could easily start importing food again and rebuilding their industry since the allies have no way to challenge u-boats and blitzmen.

But DC is not writing this.
>>
>>90167164
Because even if they aren't trying to win the war, they are winning the war. At least that is how Uber has portrayed it.

Whereas in real life, if the war had somehow continued another 6 months, there would be a German people left to try to drag everyone else down with them. They would have starved to death. Hell, they WERE starving to death. Even after the war ended and food started flowing in, the average German only received 1k calories per day. And that was a massive improvement from April of 1945 made possible by immense food shipments brought in by the allies.

It meant they had to send their superspy over to resteal catalyst, and then wait 2 months for it to ferment into a large enough amount to use for production.

America will be destroyed in 3 issues, not set back, burned to the fucking ground and the ashes raped by some boatload of nips. Britain is gone and is now being purged of undesirables as we speak, not even a resistance movement left. This is CURRENT mind you. Europe is lost. Russia is barely holding up and has just lost its only battleship to siberia.

Fucking Germany has the car gassed up, the flag in hand is getting ready to do victory laps. What fucking crack are you smoking??!?!?

Punishing murican and british dum dums for keeping da proud African man down and not ubering enough women and colonials?
>>
>>90167552
No, you read the comic. Everything the Nazis have done is a desperate attempt to kill as many people as possible before they get crushed via the power of mass production. This is outright stated almost constantly. Ubers cannot hold territory. They can't win a war. They can only smash and burn and salt the fields.
>>
>>90167670
I was starting to wonder about the lengthy Virginia Woolf monologue on he role of women in fiction. Seemed a little out of place in a comic about Nazi ubermensch.

Sure, but that's not what's actually fucking *SHOWN* in the comic. Again, "show, don't tell" is still the yardstick by which good storytelling is measured, and OH BOY does Über not measure up in this regard.
>>
>>90167817
The point of the monologue is that it's different every time because the character giving it is a compulsive liar.
>>
>>90167772
They are crippling the only enemies with Uber capacity. Uber's are the only weapons in war that matter in this setting. Nobody has the time or resources to develope a sufficient counter force.
Britain had the most knowledge and developed new classes all together.
They had the most time because the naval blockades.
They had two battleship potentials.
They still got their shit pushed in.

The US had their capitol burnt to the ground. They lost 300 tank men in one failed bum rush. They lost Boston and New York is next. The West Coast will be hit after that.
>>
>>90159534
well to be fair to Injustice, if you ignore the comic, the game itself implies that pretty much every Earth based hero not seen onscreen died when Metropolis got nuked(if they didn't get referenced as dying in some other manner)

>>90166086
the problem with that is there's not really anyone left in Europe to fight, at least as long as Katushya is MIA(along with all of the Soviet potentials), well technically there's Patton, but they've not really given any indication that the US even has an appreciable military presence left across the Atlantic
>>
>>90167999
Show, don't tell is not an absolute law. Given that Ubers is part-written as some kind of faux-historical document (like the epilogue to 1984), some amount of "telling" is appropriate. That said, I agree that there's a big disconnect between Germany's stated position and the actual examples shown.
>>
So next issue New York gets leveled, right?
>>
>>90168984
Of course, how it could be any different? Even if they started fielding flying ubers it would merely add more flavor to the carnage.

>>90168984
And they saw off the battleship candidate legs to see if that provides a tactical advantage
>>
>>90168984
Barring an asspull actually in favor of the Allies for once, yes.
>>
>>90167772
That's the excuse Keiron gives you.

But let's be honest, that "We can't win, we can only make everyone else lose" is absolute horsehit at this point.

1. The UK has surrendered with its tail between its legs.

2. Washington gone along with all major military leadership not Patton.

3. East Coast is burning, West Coast is next. Japan is about to get a Battleship.

4. Japan has the only intact atom bomb. The Manhattan Project was BTFO and its brains killed by superior German keikaku.

5. Germany hasn't lost a SINGLE Battleship. Not one. NOT ONE.

6. Russia has a super-god that won't do a damn thing because Kieron wrote himself into a corner with her being girl Molecule Man and while you think they'd take advantage of Germany massing in America Russia isn't doing ANYTHING.

7. You know, you know, YOU KNOW Germany is going to keikaku the allies again next issue.

"Germany isn't winning they're just making sure everyone loses" is bullshit and you know it.

because Murrika fuck yeah at issue 3 would mean the series ends at issue 6. he just fucked up the balance of the last battle by making it an overwhelming US loss
he could've made it so the US took one of Siegfried's limbs before Siegmund arrived, whereupon the Americans immediately retreat and end up losing only, say, half their forces instead of almost everyone. but that didn't happen

Comic turned to shit, shame really.

Very interesting concept but it's gotten real fucking linear and if it does end up as a lot of people suggested with the axis Uber's playing little house on the prairie, well shit i'm not sure I can handle the excitement to be honest.

and if the Americans still had 100-150 ubers that places them in a situation where the German battleships know they can't fuck up or separate or fatigue themselves but the Americans know they still don't have the numbers to zergrush the Germans.

Haven't stated that it's been fixed yet as far as I know.

Here's what's going to happen when Siegfried and Siegmund meets up with America's battleships.

Black 1 and Black 2 heroically stand between evacuating civilians while Razor pees his pants and curls into a ball.

"Ha Ha die niggers I hate niggers you are genetically inferior!"

Siegfried blows their heads off while they fall in crucified Christ poses.

Cue spy girl lecturing American command telling them they could have won if they had only activated the blacks fully.

Cue history text box saying that in spite of Siegfried's claims that the blacks were genetically inferior it turns out that later autopsies revealed that if only they were activated fully they would have transformed into Ubers rivaling Russian waifu in power.

Razor goes on the attack. "I-I'll harm you!" He says as he attacks Seigmund.

Seigmund turns him into a man-shrub like his brother, but Razor manages to mortally wound him with his last bit of life.

History box tells us that it was really demoralizing for the allies to once again see their one great hope turned into a man-shrub. But not as demoralizing as what happened next, because what happened next was...

Turns out it isn't Siegmund! It's just a destroyer disguised as Siegmund!

Siegmund is really at allied command!

...The total loss of allied command!

Has anyone tried just using a shit ton of bio-weapons? Don't ubers need to breathe? Just go full apocalypse warfare and use nerve gas until the battleships are dead.

Blitzmensch are so fucking OP and are basically superior to tanlines and heavy tankies in any vaguely modern battle.
>>
>>90170823
Random tankman more likely.
>>
>>90170822
Hm, still I think sustained heavy attack from both ground and air forces would do the trick. Maybe not kill them but do some damage.
>>
>>90170310
Go bomber harris on entire germany.
Night carpet bombing of cities.
Population is now much more value as reasorce so focus on limiting it as much as possible.
>>
>>90170846
They've asked that question in the series before. You'd need a very high dose and they'd need to be exposed for a long long time. Plus higher ubers can go without oxygen indefinitely. And gas masks exist.
>>
>>90170882
In one of the earlier issues the best way for conventional troops to deal with them is via anti-tank launchers. Blitzmensch, massed panzermensch, and even a single battleship can obliterate incoming aircraft with ease.

>>90170890
Germany no longer matters. All that matters is that the Uber strike force exists and has the will to fight. They're fighting for vengeance and to spite the entire world, not to save Germany from destruction.
>>
>>90170933
Use the gas to taint their food and water. Ruin the crops. Poison reservoirs. They have to eat and drink.

They need their civilian population. Attack the civilian population.

>gas masks exist

That's only going to help to an extent.
>>
>>90170975
>They have to eat and drink.
I can guarantee you, if you denied them food completely they would subsist on edge and slaughter alone.
>>
>>90170975
With ubers you'd need much more gas than normal, and gas masks would make it that much harder

Poisoning crops and ruining food supplies are more valid. The Japanese ubers were suffering immensely from fatigue and starvation. But the allies haven't jumped into full scorched earth tactics yet like the nazis

They are, but people don't understand range, accuracy or destruction.
Artillery and guided rockets, things with ranges of 40-50km, isn't accurate. They don't penetrate well either.
Meanwhile a Blitzhman looks at a airplane 120-150km away, and.... erases it in a literal flash.
Bunker? Repeated atomic flashes will penetrate, because its a accurate attack.
The scarier part is that they also have enhanced vision, both in terms of night vision and far sight.

Meanwhile Panzermen seem to have the issue where the further away something is, the less effective Halo is.
So they don't posses the range of the Blitzmen, and their vision is superior.
>>
If this comic will not turn around and continue be crappy or get even worse I think I will consider introduction of Blitzmen as jump the shark moment.
Thats probably first huge asspull and nazis avoiding being fucked over and getting another great victory.
I would say Fall of Britain and destruction of Allied Command is jump the shark moment but I think that one os moment where things what eventually made comic worse started.

The problem is that Gillen did his research, and it shows in every issue and every author's note. He knows his shit, more or less. He knows that even with literal magic superweapons, Germany is irrevocably fucked.

So he needs to keep giving them bullshit like Blitzmensch, just to keep a semblance of realism going. And that's where the - not unjustified - Naziwank accusations come from. Rock and a hard place.

>>90171471

>>90170959
High altitude night bombing should work fine. Hell, night bombing should have massively fucked up Germany by now considering how few Ubers there are, how much territory they would need to cover from air attacks, and the fact that you would need multiple Ubers working as a team to properly cycle them.

>>90171059
The Allies were very willing and capable of running countervalue attacks alongside counterforce and strategic bombings. If anything the first things the Allies should have done was burn everything as they retreated.

Jew Hulk and HMH Churchill are the same thing

>>90171545
I think the problem isn't the fact the Blitzmensch themselves. you can see the logical progression on the other side with heavy tankmen.

the problem I think is the way they were introduced as an asspull that let shebitch escape from London scot-free. had they been introduced elsewhere I don't think it wouldint have been as bad.

The problem is that the blitzmensch have no real functional weaknesses.

Yes they have no strength, but clearly it doesnt matter. Drop a couple of heavy tankmen around and you have zero problems.

Hasn't it already been established that blitzmen casualties were just a handful? And even if they get mulched in an urban environment the issue is that they fire disintegration beams out of their eyes and their current tactic is to raze cities to the ground. They don't need to even put themselves in a situation where they're at risk for tankman attack.

Its still a lot.
Remember: You could potentially steal airplanes, and then use the Blitzchmen as ranged support, since allies have nothing to kill them with.
Loss of Blitzchmen is larger than losing Panzermen or Heavies, because their potential and damage capabilities is a lot larger.
>>
>>90172679
If they're in a fixed location, why didn't the US just exploit their line of sight weakness? Artillery barrages to keep them pinned, smoke to blind them, then surround them with tankmen using their halo powers to make concentrated assaults against them? Why not use chemical weapons against them? The battleships can withstand them, but the blitzmen have significantly less resilience even compared to a tankman. Gas masks would greatly hamper their field of vision and mustard gas not only works on direct physical contact but it also collects on surfaces and has to be physically cleaned off. Why not just use fire? The blitzmen still need to breathe.
>>
>>90173323
those are all valid. that battle was just a lot of bad tactics
oh, we're going to engage the moment they come out well-rested? we're not going to wait for them to move and expose themselves first?
they were just tripping over themselves rushing to take down a battleship. if they waited even one or two days things could have been a lot different
>>
>>90173323
Because they wouldn't be feeding their valuable resources into the meat grinder.

America has to intentionally gimp themselves in order to ensure the Nazis win.
Thats why out of the entire country they were only able to find 4 battleship capable men.
Of those four they sent one to slaughter for no reason.
Two more are being intentionally only brought up to cruiser level, where the first was when he got his arms ripped off, to make sure they won't cause the Nazis too much trouble.
The fourth is such a pussy that he'll end up halo'ing his own head off on accident.

Technically they'll be fully activated heavy cruisers, rather than a partially activated battleship. There's a difference - activations can be completed early, as shown with Leah.

At least don't do stupid shit like suitical attack at London or that push into Russia and don't really face consequences (that chick was just unavailable in action for some while and guy lost arm but it didn't impact his performance) while allies suffer massive losses with it.

Story reaching point of just being frustrating and dull. And expanation that we need to give Nazis all victories and shield them from from losses so they will not collapse and we can keep ride going will not work if more people decide that they don't to be on ride and get off.

Comic started and was promising for some time, where it only appeared on surface it was just another Nazi Wank and under eat was some good story exploring war with new supersolder element but it end up being really just Nazi Wank like new Wolfstein or Man In High Castle
