“It’s what I do.”

Bonus points if you get the (semi-obscure) reference, but if no one gets it I’ll be happy to answer.

Can I just say how much JOY reading your dissections of this battle brings me? Well, it is a lot, a lot, A LOT.

You guys are THE BEST!

If Custer’s issues firing the G-R weapon is an indication, they might even have a slow rate of fire, or need to cool down / recharge a capacitor after too many shots in a short period. That might end up playing in the CSA’s favor, but likely to turn it into a stalemate or Pyrrhic victory, where there’s barely anyone left by the time what’s left of the G-R (possibly just Frankenhitler and his escorts) fall back.

Oh, wait, wrong comic.

The energy weapons that the Gigs (yeah, I’m opening that can of puns) are using appear to be semi-automatic instead of automatic or constant beam, so I think it’s likely that the sheer momentum of the charge will quickly overwhelm them (given the apparent proximity of the CSA troops in this spread) and drive them into hand-to-hand combat where the odds are [probably] less stacked against the technologically inferior combatants. There are a number of other factors involved in the outcome, some of which we can’t account for with what we know at this time, but if the CSA troops don’t break, this battle could quickly turn in their favor.

I guess we’ll find out soon enough!

Maybe Doc is really a Fish Headed Deep One, and a follower of Lovecraft’s “Dagon”, and is therefore secretly plotting the return of the Great Old Ones?

Or maybe not…

As for the battle, I think if the Confederates Soldiers could just flank The Giga-Reich they would probably be able to over power them. Otherwise I see, in my mind’s eye, lots of smouldering grey uniforms left on the field…
