Legend of the Galactic Heroes

Jessica is still best girl

>tried watching the series
>got filtered by how little was going on
Which is amazing because "nothing happens: the show" is usually my jam.

If only Kircheis was here.

...on Zig Forums?

Who would Von Schonkopf vote for?

unironically all of them would vote Trump. They're all too strong to vote Biden.

Their vote would never get counted ha ha.

You know that is an interesting point, despite discussing the politics of the FPA we never really get a elaboration on anyone's voting habits. The closest thing you get is Poplin saying that he never voted for Truniht, I'd assume the entire cast never voted for him. Yang was already friendly with other politicians anyway. I suppose they might have voted for Jessica's party if she hadn't died. Except for Schönkopf, he'd vote for the meme candidate.

Just started watching; love the design and overall story, but I agree, battles are pants on head retarded.

>OH NO, HE'S MAKING A CONE OF HIS SHIPS
>WHAT A BRILLIANT TACTICIAN

I watched the first eight episodes, then hold the series on a hyatus and watched the series again a few days ago.
I think it's good, but some parts can be rather boring for the modern viewer.

Is there any work of fiction with good strategy when it comes to battles?
Maybe some ancient greek writers or writers from the 18th century back when wars and battles were common for the average men. But nowadays most writers have no real experience with war anymore. Most japanese writers seem also to have little war knowledge even if they were a soldier during WWII. Also I don't think the average soldier understand war strategy that well. The only countries who have real wars are third or second world countries. First world countries mostly have proxy wars like in iraw whete the power balance is in huge favor to the first world country and the soldiers aren't fighting far away from the home front. Only very few authord have fought in this kind of war. And when they write a book it's mostly about their own experience and not fiction.

Really which work of fiction has ever potrayed war strategy really well?
Some hardcore LotGH fans claim that LotGH is a master piece when it comes to war strategy and tactics but I doubt it.
I also don't think that war simulators like total war and the paradox games potray it really well.

It's sci-fi pulp, but David Weber has pretty good space ship tactics and fleet strategy, actually considers kinetic energy, inertia, etc.

C.S Foreseter too if you want old school naval battles.

Sounds good. I am quite enjoying the show, but it's still disappointing that the battles are really weak for a show about space warfare.

Just about. The best parts of the show seem to be the build-up and resolution, which is fine with me. I find those parts more interesting than the action, anyways.

>Is there any work of fiction with good strategy when it comes to battles?
Probably not, since pitched battles tend to be exceedingly rare and the strategy leading up to them is more important(e.g. food, sleep, supplies) than the battle itself. I found LoGH handles that part well, but the tactics and the parts that most people would find exciting are really bad.

Ok, interesting. I trust C.S. Foreseter a bit more because I find sci-fi when it comes to society and the military. Really which sci-fi author predicted the internet, smartphones and how much it would change the way how humans live. Some have predicted this things but almost no one knew how they change us. Although there was someone a sociologist called E.M. Foster who predicted the internet and its consequences in his book the machine stops from 1909. The machine is basically an automated society where people live under the earth and communicate like with the modern internet. They're basically neet hikkimori who only communicate through video messages and have no physicsl contact. The mc hates this way of life and tries to bring himself, his mother and others to the outside world. The title of the book predicts which disaster happens in the story.

There's a few; Neuromancer for one

He wanted to install Yang as a dictator. I think his politics are very out there. Doubt he'd support any mainstream candidate if he was eligible to vote at all being an expat from the empire. Maybe he voted for a woman because she had a cute ass?

We don't get much into on the politics of the FPA. Yang is unhappy with the political establishment and their relations because he feels they're draft dodgers who don't have to bare the brunt of the cost of the war all the while complaining about the strategic downsides in the military sense of having less resources than their opponents. Beyond that the only internal politics we see are the Anti-War party vying for an armistice with the Empire, (possibly) terraist goons threatening and even assailing private persons in support of the current regime and the human resource and finance ministers quibbling with the defense minister over resources.

Military strategy and history is something any random twat can study. Tacticus is required reading for like 15% of highschoolers where I'm from. LotGH literally copy pasted Napoleonic battles. Big libraries will often stock some works on military science.
