You need 10k bombers to wipe out a medieval society?  :wacko:

Why the hell did you do that?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Bombers are tremendously inefficient and ineffective.

I think you'd just 10 B-52s.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The power of The Ring can't be undone by airpower.

Besides, the B-52 proved ineffective against the Vietnamese.  Why would it be any more effective against the forces of Sauron the Great?

His forces would be out in the open and Mordor tactics rely on mass groupings of infantry; quantity over quality.

Perhaps, but Sauron himself is unstoppable.

Meh, even if Frodo had failed and Sauron had won....what does he win anyway?  He cannot really win unless unless he goes after Aman, and if he does, he'd just get wrecked like the Numenoreans.


Jaron

He would have destroyed Middle Earth, murdered or enslaved the world of Men, Hobbits, and those Elves who stayed behind. The worst part of it all would be that Aragorn would have been taken alive, dragged in chains to Barud Dur, and had his intestines ruptured.
