    like I mentioned. Heine's stuff.

    Volumn is probably made from alchemy.
    The water test Waver did.

    You can use alchemy to power up an amusement park with magical energy, assuming everything isn't broken.
    Granted, this has less application in a fight than most of the other examples.

    Considering how she controls PM and a lot of people think PM is hinted to be the thing in GO the 7 grands are supposed to defeat.
    I'd say Altrouge is replaced by Manaka who stole Arc's hair because she was looking at a picture of Arthur the wrong way.

    If Alchemy has so many varied uses, how come the Einzberns suck so much at fighting?

    Because the only thing they know how to do is make platinum-blonde supermodels

    They can make homunculi with almost servant level power. They are extraordinarily good at what they do.

    They are just narrowly focused on getting their magic back, if they wanted to be a supreme fighting force, they could. They just don't care to.

    Besides, they lend out their services and make ultrabux off it, so it's not like they suck.

    They had to end up cheating in the Grail Wars because they suck so much. Except they also suck at cheating and almost end up accidentally killing everyone.

    Let's be honest here, none of the adults of the three families or the outsiders were good at cheating. None of them.

    I know right. Tokiomi summoned Gilgamesh and look what happened to him.

    He died ensuring the victory of his closest ally. What more could you want? He even got to have an emotional final reunion in the church with his wife and the Matou Master.

    And being fair, Tokiomi did a good job at surviving at that point.

    He used a genius tactic of boring gilgamesh so hard that goldie himself refused to kill him.

    Tokiomi dug himself a hole he couldn't dig out of. As soon as he gauged Gil's personality and the command spell hardly did anything, he should have known his plans were forfeit about making his servant kill himself at the end. But I can't blame him because Gil is literally the worst person for a schemer who isn't being genuine, it's better to be a hot blooded idiot.

    Kerry dug himself a hole because he didn't even need to cheat if he trusted his servant and was honest.

    Kayneth, well that was doomed for entirely other reasons other than the war.

    Zouken actually does pretty well in HF all things considered.

    The Einzbern are doomed to lose anyway because there's no way their sure-win Heracles can defeat Gilgamesh, but that's outside of their knowledge. Has it not for Gil they can just bulldoze through everything with Herc but hurr durr Ms. Illya has to play around for half the war doing barely anything.

    But yeah, the 3 great families are actually quite incompetent at cheating given what they have/know

    watch that anti-magic 35th platoon thing yesterday. The translators used hallmark for 固有.
    Thought that sounded pretty good.
