Nothing's stopping them from conjuring up armies of warriors, airships, beasts and etc and just swarming them either. It just doesn't work outside of the most bullshit of contrived plots and plot armor. You can't haver carter be relevant and have all this other stuff. His survival in my view directly contradicts the entire rest of setting. John carter should have been a corpse mid series as an absolute if any of what you insist is supposedly the case in barsoom is even remotely true. Yet another thing that contradicts all this supposedly over powered stuff.įorgive If I find the red weed genetic manipulation MUCH more impressive from a strategic standpoint than the over-glorified zombie men.Īlso.the more and more you describe this, the more and more even the "honor system" argument is starting to sound like total nonsense. There is no logical way what you just described could be relevant in the setting. and they didn't wipe cities because they wanted the cattle alive to feed martian colonists and they only needed to crush military forces.Īlso.as for all that.so.super soldiers that wouldn't matter compared to standard martian forces are evidence they can stop the potential runaway collapse of their ecosystems, and these glorified zombie men were relevant in a setting where all pullets are hyper explosive and can supposedly destroy things hundreds of kilometers away because? they were merely allowing foot traffic in and out of the city. The book made it clear they stomped London. very impressive, but none of that nessecarilly in any translates into wishing away the enemies' projectiles if just sounds like they have astral projection and some nifty illusions powers they can make solid. Nothing of what just described from the lotharians sounds like anything that can just wish away KKVs. Hell, there's an entire city of mad scientists on Barsoom anyway. So yeah, pretty sure anything the Molluscs throw they'll figure out. He was then forced by his creations to create millions more synthetic men to take over Barsoom.And then one synthetic man came out more as a giant cancerous lump that kept eating, growing and expanding and threatened all life on Barsoom until the Helium Navy got involved.Ras Thavas now works for Helium. Ras Thavas, the Master Mind of Mars for example created the synthetic men, humanoids with distributed central nervous systems that could survive and continue to fight even with their heads blown off. In fact London seems to be holding them back with trenchworks and massed guns even after the timeskip.Īnd cute, but the Barsoomians are the real sewers of life in this debate. (Which they don't see as warping because they view reality as just another illusion.)Īnd yes, I'm aware of what they did to the British Army when they rode out to meet them.But I'm saying they didn't use their cylinder KKD's to wipe out any cities. I'm all the above is pretty much warping reality. Pretty sure being able to teach someone how to teleport interplanetary distances, create living breathing beings out of nothing but pure will, kill people with the same and in at least one case if not more one 'illusion' pretty much had a Pinocchio moment and was the literal recreation down to memories of a White Martian officer who had been dead for a few hundred thousand years.
