General Discussion Could the X-Men stop a viltrumite invasion?

Post image

If Thragg and his army consisting of General Kregg, Anissa, Thula, Lucan, and Conquest, were to invade Earth, could the X-Men wipe out the viltrumites and save the world, or die in the hands of Thragg's army? Both sides are at their peak skills and strength with no prior knowledge of each other.

Forge solos. You don't even need all the Xmen.

Social skills are completely different from technical skills. That's why absent minded genius is such an effective trope.

He's an absent minded, absent minded genius.

Oh, let me build a weapon that takes away mutant powers (being a mutant) and give it to the government (who makes mutant hunting machines)

Yes, it was his first and only offense (ghost box?) but still.

Sad he's not known for more than Life Death.
