Neuroi Hive 206
The Remaining Neuroi still left on earth.
- Airborne Mook: Neuroi Flyer Bots which come in Small, Medium, and Large varieties. The Neuroi Witches/Sorceresses count as Airborne Elite Mooks.
- Aquatic Mook: Neuroi Submarine Bots. Currently they come in Escort, Battleship, and Carrier varieties.
- Armor-Piercing Attack: The Neuroi developed Sonics to do this to witches.
- Back from the Brink: Due to a concentrated effort started by Berlin and continuing to the present, The Neuroi of Earth have largely pulled themselves from the brink of being annihilated.
- Beam Spam: While all Neuroi Bots could do this at first, Berlin has since improved on it. The Allied attempt to gain air superiority over Karlsland & Berlin ended disastrously due to newly developed homing lasers and latter on Berlin developed the Laser Artillery Bot to saturate entire areas of the battlefield in laser fire.
- Cute Machines / Adorable Evil Minions: Zig-Zagged by most Neurio bots; they have the ruthless efficiency of terminators but the personality of B-1s. Played straight by Emissary-Class Neuroi who are purpose built for human interaction.
- Elite Mooks: Large Flyers, Land Battleships, and Submarine Battleships might count due to their small numbers and large percentages. Played straight by Neuroi Witches/Sorceresses, the Neuroi's mook of choice for combating human witches and conducting commando raids to soften defenses or steal critical intel.
- Faceless Goons: Played straight by most Neuroi infantry and the Sorceresses. Averted by Emissary Neuroi who have digital displays to mimic human facial expressions.
- Giant Mook: Large Flyers, Ultra Heavy Walkers, and Land Battleships.
- Heavily Armored Mook: Large Flyers, Ultra Heavy Walkers, Submarine Battleships, and Land Battleships. They get even tankier when Berlin develops deflector shields.
- Kung Fu-Proof Mook: Neuroi Witches/Sorceresses, capable of fighting human Witches on equal terms.
- Mascot Mook: Berlin builds the Emissary to give the Neuroi a 'face' the humans can relate to.
- Mecha-Mook: Naturally, this applies to the Neuroi's robot army.
- Mini Mook: The tiny, beetle shaped, Infiltrators the Neuroi attempt to spread through the Human nations. The little guys try their hardest but are unable to do much more than eavesdrop.
- Mook Lieutenant: Sorceresses are this to ordinary Bots. Emissaries are this to Sorceresses. Emissary Zero Zero reports directly to Berlin and acts as his right hand when interacting with humans who have been captured, surrendered, or switched sides.
- Plasma Cannon: Suez develops Plasma weapons, which are terrifyingly effective against late WW-II/early Cold War armor despite the Humans modifying the vehicles with magi-tech. The Africa Corps refer to them as firing Liquid Lightning after Suez breaks them and their morale. Berlin takes it a step further and develops versions for all Neuroi units, including infantry and Witches/Sorceresse. Afterwards, he tries to top himself by developing homing plasma.
- Punished for Sympathy: What the Neuroi Hives of Earth expect to happen if the Neuroi Nation finds out that they're no longer trying to kill everyone due to the fact that they are breaking Neuroi law.
- Robot Girl: The Neuroi Witches, latter renamed Sorceresses, look kinda-sorta human. Played straight by the Emissary Neuroi who are built to look human rather than fight.
- Shield-Bearing Mook: One of the tricks the Sorceresses copied from the Witches was the ability to protect themselves and others with magic deflector shields. Due to Berlin's research, all Neuroi bots latter gained the ability to do this.
- Those Were Only Their Scouts: The Neuroi of Earth are actually just a mining operation. The actual Neuroi military could destroy Earth easily, given the chance.
- Villain Protagonist: They're a race of aliens trying to invade Earth, wipe out the human race, and mine off all of the AE. They are also the protagonists of the story. This starts going away once 206 realizes that humans produce an infinite amount of AE by existing, and further fades when the more evil Hive Cluster 302 decides to invade.

He's become favorably compared to being a cross of Solid Snake and Creed. - Red Baron: Sueeeezzzz!!!
- Retired Badass: Oh yes. He may not want to kill anyone, but that doesn't mean he's forgotten how and will do so if he needs to as proven by his list of victories.
- Shellshocked Veteran: He's a veteran of the Fahrong War who was dismissed from service. He signed on with the mining expedition to get away from all the fighting.
- The Lancer: Suez is Berlin's de-facto second in command because he's the only one with previous military experience.

Hive Atlantic

- Submarine Pirates: One of Atlantic's main job.
- The Sneaky Guy: Assassinated his (incompetent) superior then moved onto terrorizing the western allies with a campaign of submarine warfare. The first the Allies had any idea something was happening was when their convoys started mysteriously vanishing without a trace.
Previous Atlantic Hive

Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke
Wing Commander, or Oberstleutnant, Minna Dietlinde Wilcke is the leader of the 501st joint fighter wing and the commander of the Karlsland Air Force. After the Neuroi appeared and her lover was killed, she gave up her dream of becoming a singer to join the Karlsland Air Force. Because of her traumatic past, the safety of her subordinates is her top priority. Despite her kind and gentle demeanor she will go to any lengths to protect her subordinates. She is even willing to issue orders specifically to prevent them from being hurt and she was the one behind the order forbidding male workers in the base from socializing with the witches.

Sakamoto Mio
Major Mio Sakamoto, the former second in command of the Strike Witches, worked with Yoshika's father on the Striker Units. As a veteran of the initial fights against the Neuroi, she is far tougher and more disciplined than most of the Strike Witches. Her primary job is to train new recruits and takes a no-nonsense "tough love" approach to her duties. As the former second in command of the Strike Witches she supports Minna and maintains discipline when out of battle.

However for all her lofty ideals she's still twelve years old and often acts childish or self indulgent like a typical twelve year old. Her energetic personality masks the fact that she's quite lazy. She'll often spend time napping around the base only waking up to change where she naps. However in the air, she displays a passion and talent for flying that nobody in the 501st can match.

Described as "nocturnal" she doesn't have a lot of contact with the other members of the 501st, but is essential for the unit's safety. Because of her lack of contact with the rest of the squad, she is only close to Eila and Erica although her compassionate and submissive personality means she's kind and accepting of everybody in the 501st. Sanya's father was an accomplished musician and taught Sanya how to play the piano and sing. He even wrote a song for her entitled 'Sanya's Song'. When the neuroi invaded Orussia, Sanya was separated from her father but maintains hope that he's still alive in Orussia and someday they'll be reunited. To remind herself, she often hums the song her father composed for her. Unlike the other girls, most of whom wield machine guns, she uses a rocket launcher called the FliegerHummer which is based on the Fliegerfaust, a contemporary German anti-aircraft rocket launcher. In season one her striker unit is based on the MiG60 a fictional fighter combining features of the MiG-1, MiG-3, and Yak-1: in season 2 her striker unit is based on the Yak-9.
