These are what you will be fighting most of the time. They are like basic infantry and are the majority of what drop-ships deploy. They are not weak, but not so tough. Their bodies are easily broken and bullets can pierce their flesh/armor pretty easily. The only thing you need to avoid is close-up combat with them. They have a sharp tail that can easily pierce human skin and kill. They can shoot small laser blasts out of their mouths, but unless it hits you exactly or right next to you, it does not do much damage. Are weak to explosives and bullets.
Trained Alien:
These are more elite soldiers. They have much stronger armor covering their bodies, and are uncommonly deployed by drop-ships. They are only deployed when there is a real threat, they are not deployed to take over small villages. Like Basic Aliens, they can also shoot laster blasts out of their mouths, but that is only a last resort when they lose their weapon. Their staff can open up at the top and shoot large laser blasts. These are much more deadly than the Basic Alien attacks and are to be avoided. When encountering these at close combat, their staff opens up at the top into a sharp blade. Deadly and are weak to explosives.
Assassin Alien:
These are very good at close combat. They can move through the shadows without being noticed and at very high speeds. They are deployed by drop-ships to eliminate high-level threats. They can shoot small laser blasts out of their mouths like Basic Aliens. Their blade-like arms can cut through human flesh with ease, and it is best to avoid these whenever possible, although it is very hard to lose them. They have a very strong sense of smell, sight, and hearing. Very deadly and are weak to explosives.
Tank Alien:
These are very good at taking hits. It is incredibly hard to kill them. Their only weak spot is their head behind their helmet and it is very hard to remove their helmet. They move very slowly and can shoot large laser blasts from their hands and helmet. They are randomly deployed, usually when destroying a village or small civilization. They do not attack small groups of soldiers. No weapon weakness.
Elite Alien:
These are the "upgraded" version of the Trained Alien. Not every alien is capable to become an Elite, only some that have the right body-type. Their flesh is their only weak spot. The armor they wear is almost unbreakable. They move incredibly fast, so hitting one is already a challenge. They carry around Plasma Rifles and have good aim. The plasma shots do not make an explosion, but are like human Sub Machine Guns, except with laser. When hit by one, it causes you to fall backwards, and if it hits flesh right on, it has a chance of burning it. They are deployed when there is a high-level threat.
