Titanic Death: A Primer to Stop the Rumbling

Titanic Death: A Primer to Stop the Rumbling, also known as Titanic Death: A Primer on How to Stop the Rumbling' and its shortened name Titanic Death, is a series of books and booklets written by various political, military, science fiction, and fantasy authors in collaboration with the makers and producers of Attack on Titan and published on mid 201█.
Titanic Death focused on explanations on the various and multiple ways and methods of stopping the Rumbling, ranging from conventional methods (i.e. nuclear weapons, chemical weapons, eschatological ways, precision bombing and/or thaumaturgical means) to unconventional (i.e. development of giant mechs, repeated use of nuclear weapons) to even absurd (developing a formula which makes the titans and Red Titans highly allergic to the world and even humanity, destruction of the ozone layer, massive piles of explosive horse dung, Crusader Kings 2-style Kill Plots, et cetera).
==Background==
During the time Japan is under reconstruction and social, economic and political reforms the booklet was made during a casual stroll in an anime convention center by members of the Military Staff Committee of the Grand Marshal, during which Captain 1st Rank Akane Tachibana and Admiral Borealia Norsoutha came upon the people who made, published and animated Attack on Titan and decided to talk to them about anything. After reading through the chapters where the Rumbling occurred, the two called the rest of the MSCGM and discussed about a way of stopping the Rumbling.
After moving outside, the MSCGM's discussions on a way of stopping the Rumbling focused on the use of nuclear weapons, but soon it turned to an all-out debate when disagreements broke out, sides were made to decide, agree and/or disagree with any ways; already the debate burns with a deadly heat. The intensity of the outdoors all-out debate is so much that many anime, manga, video game and light novel fans and even makers and producers went to see what the commotion is all about, just to find the all-out debate turn into a free-for-all shouting match on what ways, which ways, and why such ways were and should be chosen in order to stop the Rumbling; as a result, the MSCGM is permanently deadlocked to the point they can't even vote on a single way.
It was when the makers and producers of Attack on Titan interceded in the shouting match by merely suggesting a series of books and booklets on the various ways of stopping the Rumbling. After a small discussion, the MSCGM agreed to the idea and discussed on the title, which is then agreed to be Titanic Death: A Primer to Stop the Rumbling.
==Anti-Rumbling methods==
The ways and methods of stopping the Rumbling were various, myriad, disparate and multiple to the point that they had to be grouped into different books and booklets. Among which were:
*Nuclear weapons: Use of nuclear weapons will result in a thousand nukes detonating just above the Red Titans' heads, followed by a massive nuclear bombardment against the Founding Titan.
*Eschatology: Somehow someone used the occult to open a portal to the gods' domains and begged for their help in stopping the Rumbling, which resulted in the gods either taking over or destroying the Founding Titan and Red Titans.
*Thaumaturgical methods: The use of thaumaturgy as well as thaumaturgical weapons designed to kill Titans.
*Explosive horse dung: Massive holes were buried somehow quickly and deeply, then filled with explosive horse dung that would react to the Red Titans' feet. The resulting explosions would wipe out one or many. Planes filled with crates of carefully-loaded explosive horse dung would drop said crates upon or ram themselves against the Founding Titan's head.
*Precision strikes: After discussing the matter with foreign military intelligence agencies from beyond their world, various governments designed plans to strike the napes of the Founding Titans using airstrikes, conventional missiles and artillery. Use of heavy munitions were authorized.
*Orbital weapons satellites: Orbital weapons satellites, such as kinetic bombardment stations, would see multiple tungsten rods raining down on the heads and necks of every Red Titans, or an attempt on utilizing kinetic bombardment stations in unleashing a whole barrage of tungsten rods and ion strikes.
*Orbital bombardment: Spacefaring civilizations would send a few research ships to see what's going on and return with their findings. After sending delegations to those seeking to fight against the Rumbling, military ships would appear in orbit with many going down to face the Red Titans and Founding Titan. The firepower of the various ships would be enough to annihilate the Red Titans before the Founding Titan was bombarded.
*Titanic warfare: Titanic warfare is an unfathomably common subject among the Armies of the Light, Armies of the Abyss, and voidwalker militaries. It focuses on massive war walkers, ultra-superheavy tanks, and even creatures and warriors of titanic natures.
**Massive war walkers: Because of the nature of titanic warfare and of other wars unrelated, massive war walkers were common across the most devastatingly active of warzones. Their varying sizes were simply enough to destroy the Red Titans and Founding Titan.
**Ultra-superheavy tanks: Developed by only a certain number of nations, ultra-superheavy tanks were essentially the most useful due to their tendency to fight titans and other similar vehicles. Their mobility allows them to outpace the Red Titans and Founding Titan and their firepower allows them to annihilate them.
