I was not serious when i said that. But then, the heroes could put up a fight; amazonians, antlanteans, zod and his hench men with their ships..(the suicide squad might not do much)
Well at the end, as you pointed out they do little or no damage.
Well, one thing that should help the heroes is having the sorcerers, at least for Round 2 and onwards. Portal'ing around means potentially circumventing things like alien forcefields in order to potentially deliver strategic attacks at certain points.

The "smaller" Independence Days ships (the ones that descended to Earth and set over major cities) had shields that nukes could not get through. Going to need Reeves Superman. Or Juggernaut running through them
Because, like I said, beyond the legions of other aliens to deal with, a 100,000 strong full Xenomorph infestation is going to be an absolute nightmare to deal with, especially if the Facehuggers get in among the heroes or their allies.
And that's not even getting into the more exotic things the aliens can throw out, like the psychics among the ST Arachnid aliens.

Was actually thinking that earlier, but the way reed made something to negate his powers, wasn’t sure he could get through any and all energy defenses, plus the shields pure power is so high, and there are many ships.
Those would certainly pose a problem, yes. It is an option for the heroes if they can't breach the shields, tho. Surfer could also just fly around blowing stuff up inside the vessel til he hits something important. Would be pretty nigh impossible for them to hit a very small very fast moving object that can phase thru solid objects (making chasing him very very dangerous) via unguided slow firing energy weapon bursts IMO.
Well, as I pointed out as well earlier, sorcerer portals could also potentially circumvent things like forcefields. Can get Strange and Wong to drop a few heroes with explosives on some of the command ships or something. Not saying it's a tactic they could apply across the board, obviously, but don't see why they can't use it against some of the targets.

The Galactus-killer blast would only destroy the targetted ship, since the other ships woud still have their shields.
Furthermore, it's clear that such an attack would cause massive colateral damage... Also remember that the Surfer would be K.O'ed from such an attack and therefore it isn't efficient.
I'm thinking 4 or 5, so I'll say 5. By that time, Earth has
- Supers, Zod, and the Kryptonians
- Enchantress and Incubus
- Flash
- Doomsday
- WW and the rest of the JL
- Steppenwolf and the parademons
- Amazonians and Atlanteans
- Bleeding Edge Iron Man
- Dr. Strange
- Wakanda
- Asgard, Thor, Surtur, Hulk, Hela, Odin, Heimdall, Kurse, Malekith, the Destroyer armor, Cask of Endless Winters or whatever it was called, black hole grenades, Asgard's shield tech
- SHIELD, Hydra helicarriers from WS, etc.
Lots of bodies, lots of speed, lots of strength, lots of durability, and some serious hax-powered superheroes and villains.
Enchantress, Zod, Wakanda & Asgard's shields, Hela, and all the armies go toe-to-toe with the invasion force in full defense mode while a team of Supes, Cyborg, Iron Man, Thor, Dr. Strange, Hulk, Kurse, etc. go after the crucial targets (hive-mind bugs from Starship Troopers, mothership from ID4:2, etc.).
Can Dr. Strange use the time gem to just reset everything if they lose or if they fail at critical points?
If they can't cut it, by the time we get to CW DC, X-Men, and the Fantastic Four, you have
- Xavier
- Phoenix
- Apocalypse
- Apoc-powered Magneto
- Quicksilver
- 4th-wall breaking Deadpool ("Man, that mothership is HUGE! Well, if you can't make a better sequel, just make a bigger one. Speaking of sequels: Deadpool 2 in theaters now and soon to be on home media!")
- pep-talked (haha) Barry
- Silver Surfer
- Dr. Doom and Reed's shenanigans
I think they'll be good.
If not, Reeves and Welling Supermen push and punch all the ships into the sun.
"ALL characters (villains and heroes) join together to fight off the invasion. No outside help is provided. Only the characters based in the worlds are the only ones allowed. No prep. BUT they are allowed to send a delaying force to fight off the invasion force as they try and build something. Characters who died in movies are considered alive for this battle."
When u say all characters villains and heroes even ones who died, are u including armies and groups from the past?
Use the MCU and Caps first movie for example. Are u including all the forces from ww2 on both sides, red skull, his hydra army with tesseract weapons, the howling comandoes etc... Plus modern day forces, military, shield etc... Or just the "main" characters, Cap, red skull etc...
All characters who died in the movies but it has go be modern day versions (unless specified such as the future Sentinels). But, as specified, you may pull the best version of said character.
Shield/Hydra/armies are modern versions only. But yeah, you get them all (anyone you want to pull as long as they are Earth-based).
With regards to SHIELD. Are we talking about them at the height of their modern power? Considering you are saying they are at their best. So, SHIELD with helicarriers and such. Basically, Avengers 1 SHIELD.
Because current SHIELD (at least with regards to how useful they are going to be here) is basically Daisy and a handful of others. They're nowhere near the force they were even five years ago, after just taking hit after hit, both in the films and shows (the whole TWS Hydra reveal, and all the issues with being declared criminals, having their base blown up by LMDs etc.).
