| Jul 19, 2018 at 3:54 | comment | added | Ender Look | Why would literally send all the nukes to the whole surface of the invasion not be a solution? Even resetting the day they won't have enough time to escape of the destruction zone. Also, covering underground from nukes won't be very easy (not enough time to excavate enough). | |

| Nov 8, 2017 at 8:25 | comment | added | MichaelK | The question in a nutshell: "Hello worldbuilding. I have here an unbeatable enemy that knows all our moves before we know them. How do we beat this unbeatable enemy?". You don't... you as the author must give the enemy a weakness otherwise the best you can do is end up in a constant stalemate. | |

| Apr 25, 2016 at 20:41 | comment | added | gaazkam | I'm perfectly well aware of this. Which is why I'm posting it as a comment, not an answer. I still think I'm not abusing this question by pointing you out some other weaknesses your setting might have? You can, of course, stick with your original idea. | |
| Apr 25, 2016 at 20:31 | comment | added | sdrawkcabdear | @gaazkam I think you are missing the point. The question is about beating a time jumping army not "what alliances would or would not form in the event of an alien invasion" you are free to create that as a new question, I am hand waving it here. I was trying to be funny in my initial comment. I will be more clear, diplomacy among human nations is beyond the scope of this question. | |
| Apr 25, 2016 at 20:08 | comment | added | gaazkam | I'm pretty sure North Korea would not be the only one pledging alliance to the allies. And you should also count those who will silently wait to see who wins, in the meantime trying not to interfere. You know, this kind of bastards who join the war when it is almost at it's end, and then scream how brave and valiant they were. | |
| Apr 25, 2016 at 16:59 | comment | added | sdrawkcabdear | @gaazkam as I said "a fact that we would have thought impossible just days ago" Okay technically north Korea pledged allegiance to the aliens, but the major world powers are allied against them. | |

The armies of the world have united to fight this foe, a fact we would have thought impossible just days ago. Seriously? How many armies would rather side with the aliens? How many would simply surrender? Of course, they will be many who will fight till the end; but all? I don't think so.

| Apr 25, 2016 at 4:06 | comment | added | sdrawkcabdear | @Aify Yes except we don't have a time resetting solider. This is what inspired the title, live die repeat was the alternate title for the movie. | |
| Apr 25, 2016 at 2:37 | comment | added | Aify | Isn't this pretty much exactly the plot for Edge of Tomorrow? | |
