* HarsherInHindsight: Karin Muyoka was an OC from ''Fanfic/BoundlessWorldOfDanmaku'' that Lt Colonel Summers borrowed for ''Fantasy Blitzkrieg'' with permission from Terry N Muse. But in ''Operation Alexandria'', she only appeared for two chapters before getting unceremoniously dropped from the story due to [[ExiledFromContinuity Omega E not having permission from Terry]]. In December 2020, ''Boundless'' was deleted from Website/FanfictionDotNet, thus making ''Fantasy Blitzkrieg'' and ''Operation Alexandria'' the only evidence of her existence left in the whole world wide web, and these two depictions of her have little to no characterization...
* OlderThanTheyThink: ''Operation Alexandria'' is NOT the only AlternateContinuity SpinOff of ''Fantasy Blitzkrieg'' that exists on Website/FanfictionDotNet. A few years before ''Operation Alexandria'' came about, there was a series titled ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12731540/1/Multiversal-Saviours-Gensokyo-At-War Multiversal Saviours: Gensokyo At War]]'' by Xovercreator which is a more faithful adaptation of the original series' ''Mission One'' with the addition of an OC called Richard Liu. However, it lasted only four chapters before going on an unannounced hiatus, and has not been updated ever since.

* DistancedFromCurrentEvents: Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Omega E posted a disclaimer in chapter 39 stating that Masud's "Plague" spell cards are referencing the [[Literature/TheBible Ten Plagues of Egypt]], and it has nothing to do with the aforementioned pandemic.

* OldShame: Summers has come to regret ever coming up with the original series, and it was enough to make him quit writing fanfiction altogether.



* UnfortunateImplications: ''[[AllThereInTheManual Fantasy Blitzkrieg: HMF Confidential]]'' has an offhand mention that ''all religions'' in the world were purged in order to keep [[UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror al-Qaeda and ISIS]] DeaderThanDead. [[MST3KMantra Even ignoring how that's supposed to be possible]], this bring forth the implications that the only way to end religious extremism is for the concept of religion to become extinct.

** Karin Muyoka from ''FanFic/BoundlessWorldOfDanmaku'' did make an appearance for two chapters, but mysteriously disappears from the plot in Chapter 11 due to Omega E The Reader realizing that he did not have permission from Terry N Muse (author of ''Boundless'') to use her (Summers did for the original series).

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Although ''Operation Alexandria'' is BloodierAndGorier than the original series, it accepts that its "High Fantasy magic versus Cyberpunk technologies" setting is a rather silly one, and takes advantage of it whenever possible, including during the Alexandria Crew's murder spree against the Outside World's forces.

*SoBadItsGood: Despite it being so poorly written that [[CreatorBacklash its own author regretted writing it]], ''Fantasy Blitzkrieg'' has a surprising amount of popularity, enough that [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12731540/1/Multiversal-Saviours-Gensokyo-At-War three]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13678654/1/Fantasy-Blitzkrieg-Mission-Two-Operation-Alexandria other]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13283141/1/Return-of-Blitzkrieg-Gensokyo works]] [[note]]the second one even got [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13711112/1/Fantasy-Blitzkrieg-History-Kaleidoscope a spin-off]] made by the author of the third, as well as sharing a trope page with the original series[[/note]] has borrowed the setting.

** Case in point: the inexplicable BreakingTheFourthWall moment by Byakuren in ''Mission Three''. It was written ''very awkwardly'', has utterly no bearing in the plot, and seems to be there solely because Summers wanted to do a Fourth Wall-breaking moment.

*{{Narm}}: A story whose entire premise is "HighFantasy magic [[TheMagicVersusTechnologyWar versus]] {{Cyberpunk}} technologies" is surely a recipe for silliness... except that ''Fantasy Blitzkrieg'' still tried to treat it with utmost seriousness, with little to no humor to be seen anywhere.
