I don't get the whole "evil cliche soldiers" part in the first place. For what? Even more, because they clearly don't even act like well trained soldiers, more like some guys you hired in a bar.
I also just hate when they throw around with scifi technology, but completely random.
For example: when you got ultra high tech drones which can easily build you a city, guess what you also will have? Ultra high tech hunting drone swarmes, which will wipe out whatever you want. Or you just use one of those nuke level flamethrowers shown at the start. Good luck escaping thos things, which just obliterate everything in 10+ miles radius.
Also:
1. What's the point to flee the forest tribe, when you just carry the same problem to that sea people tribe?
2. Why the fuck care for the sae people tribe, when you can just torture the forest people tribe - as if he wouldn't combe back, when they start doing this.
3. When you got a whole freaking army around including a general around, why the fuck go with some stupid whale hunters?
By the way: Why not just armor your stuff enough that freaking arrows can't penetrate it. I mean, really, it's arrows. Even if it's bigger arrows, it's not compareable to enough a firearm can do.

Got the same problem as the first one: the villains are just as evil as they are stupid, what of course just leads nowhere.
This combined with the Nawi being savages with zero technology on their own while fighting an absolute high tech humankind, makes for the usual dumb fuckery you got in many bad stories.
See, it's fine to have an evil villain whose main power comes from being ruthless and it's also fine to have an antagonists, who is maybe even extremely powerful, but got reasons to not use that power and if its just moral.
IF you have both, well, then you have to go full Holocaust, means, if these humans are that evil and powerful, well, they will just burn those Nawi to ashes, easily, without any chance, because that's exactly what happens when a brutal high tech civilisation meets one that simply got nothing to put against that power.
If you don't do that, well, you get a stupid plot, where the evil super power guy just has to never use any of their power and never is ruthless beside against some nameless C level characters to show the "I'm evul!" part, then lose thanks to that obvious brain damage. Yay... thanks for being so fucking lazy, writers.
