So much of Beacon's Fall was Ironwood's plans backfiring and Cinder taking advantage of it. The Airships made the people subconsciously worried luring in Grimm to the boarders. The Paladins were easily stolen and used against them. Him not double checking the CCT let the Queen Virus hack their systems. Torchwick being on his ship is what gave them prime material to lauch the Robot Revolution. Hell, him taking a ship to get back his own ship rather than focus on the ground or more importantly, guarding Amber and the tower, caused him to be heavily delayed in aiding the rest on the ground. He should have just considered the stupid flagship a lost cause and figure a way to shoot it down. Wouldn't be too hard seeing as a simple Griffon crashing into the deck was enough to send it crashing. This is bullshit speculation based on the words of a man who has done absolutely nothing to help anyone for 80 years and has instead elected to send brave young men and women to their deaths.

The Paladins being stolen was an unforseen complication, and how was Ironwood supposed to know they had someone who could use illusions and clear out an entire warship's crew without raising an alarm?

His ship was his base of operations, where he lead his troops from. Why would he not go there?
