Could our world today survive the BETA invasion?

No.

Even in that fantasy-universe where they have a time-traveller micromanaging their battles, the best end is "humanity survives somewhere else".

Probably. Did they even try chemical weapons against those guys? It'd be stupid to fight them head-on. But there are a lot of ways to take out endless hordes like that.

Actually the best end is humanity uniting under one banner, becoming interstellar conquerors with massive fleets and stupidly overpowered 8th generation TSFs and going right to the homeworld of the BETA's creators.

/a/ say laser classes don't work in our world.

Sure, we just have to complete the map by the start of Turn 14.

Unless we manage to shoot them out, or nuke the ever living hell out of them before gaining a foothold. Then no.

Why would they developed the same MBT like our world even though they have different enemy?

Because all development went to making tsfs and susanoos. Also why fix what's not broken?

>>15831470
>No.
Wrong.

Eh, if we nuked the moon before they got to the Earth, maybe. That's a bit hopeful though, since it would be pretty hard to nuke them out depending on how big their hives were.

Our computer and communication technology are far more advanced then the ML world.

We'd have mass produced drone tanks and helis fighting the betas instead of mecha pilot girls in skintight transparent uniforms

Because the MBT is a very cheap 120mm gun platform to back TSFs up with? I dunno.

That said, I do think SPAAGs should have been by and far the more prevalent cheaposhit vehicle, since on the opposing side, Tank-class are supposed to be the majority of an invading swarm and Grapplers don't really get any special resistances to damage. The settings even note that SPAAGs are highly effective against the unarmored BETA classes up to Grappler, but to this day no SPAAG has ever been included in any of the series' media outside of one fanclub-release game.

We'd be boned. They'd just keep coming forever.
>>15831514
In a scenario like the one described in the OP I think it's best to assume they just work because reasons.

Maybe for a while.

We won't last though.

>>15833383
Don't watch SM.

>>15831435
Yes, easily. The world of Alternative could have survived it on paper as well and it was less advanced at the time. Dislodging BETA isn't super hard as long as you don't sit on your hands waiting for the problem to get worse.

>>15832007

Great argument, well justified.

>>15831969
Because MBTs can be used to fight against more than just other tanks; everyone who's not a retarded Murken realizes this.

Tank class says hello

>>15831435
Today, given our lack of a Cold War? I'd say so. Even if the BETA landed in China again, I don't think the Chinese would hesitate in nuking the shit out of it, with the rest of the world joining in the subsequent reconstruction/damage minimization effort. Then we'd get to work building orbital intercept guns.

However, that all relies on a swift response to the BETA...I think we might be more screwed in this universe. We knew the BETA were hostile in the other universe because they ate all our dudes on the moon base. If they were to land in Canada and Kashgar now, though, we might try to make contact with them and hold off the nukes until it was too late and swarms started pouring out, and then we'd be really out of luck.

>>15831435
Sure, especially since laser-class would actually have to follow the laws of physics.

>>15838169
G-Elements, they ain't gotta follow shit.

Give me twenty good men and I could kick their asses out of our planet.

>>15831492

That even happens? I know they start a war with the beta but I don't recall them even knowing who o where their creators were

anyway, I think we could beat them so long as every nation knows what type of threat they can develop into if they don't do anything, otherwise we're getting fucked by politicking

>>15831435
today tech could manage a BETA invasion much better than in the 80's.
also without a USSR, there is much more room for cooperation.
also UE also makes Europe a stronger adversary to beta.
plus,working rail guns, drones, 100x more industrial capabilities, much larger population/soldier availability...

>>15839957
but we are less advanced on space colonies , so no moon walkers to upgrade into full blown TSFs

We should just nuke the shit out of the first Hive

Yeah, in the Alternative manga there's an epilogue in the 2040s where Kasumi is the leader of the "Mankind Union" or something, and they released an "Exogularity" artbook with pictures of TSFs like the Ishkur that look like stuff from Five Star Stories or L-Gaim and are supposedly even more overpowered.
