Ok, here is where the new OOC chatter for the Revamp thread will take place. In this section you will find info on the Alien invaders as well as general chatter/questions.<br/><br/>First up for the Alien Horde is *drumroll pleease*<br/><br/>The Grumbler:<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/urdnot_grunt_by_altiuso83-d2nha29.jpg) (http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/ME__aliens_by_Spiritius-1.jpg)<br/><br/>(imagine the head on the body with a reactor of some type coming out of the stomach and you have it)<br/>The basic grunt infantry, they look like scrawny human-sized bipedal monkeys. Cyborg implants and metal tubes all over their bodies, some leading from an power generator grown together with their stomach to an energy blaster fused into one arm. If it's ruptured, the reactor overloads and explodes, disgusting but harmless to anyone who's not hugging it at the time. They're cheap, disposable, and really stupid. The name comes from the noises that their stomach/reactor makes, since it's constantly hungry.<br/>(If anyone is a Halo fan, they're kind of like the Grunts on there)<br/><br/>Bruisers:<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/Brute_sketch_by_eWKn-1.jpg)<br/><br/>The next step up, Bruisers are big and powerful, though only a little bit smarter than Grumblers. They're taller, like hairless gorillas with armor, and instead of having a built-in generator, they 'wear' what's basically an armless, legless, eyeless Grumbler surgically sewn onto their back. Their hands are detachable prosthetics, so a Bruiser can have blasters, electroclaws, energy whips, or power hammers attached to the stumps of its wrists. They tend to be squad commanders, directing groups of Grumblers in ground combat.<br/><br/>Raider:<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/Lizard_Man_by_sansyu-Copy-1.jpg) (http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/REPTILE_MECH_by_dasAdam-1.jpg)<br/><br/><br/>Raiders stand at 6 feet tall to 8 feet tall, their scales come in multiple colors and markings, making identification to a particular clan easy. They fight like the Fuedal Samurai of old, and many of their traits and actions reflect the Samurai as well. They carry three weapons on them at all times. A gunblade, a pistol and a serrated shield with which they use to both block incoming fire and to bash and cut down opponents. They travel in groups, usually in the number of 2 or 3 and are often used for raids because of their skill in combat. They are weaker physically than Bruisers but, their agility and speed make up for this weakness. They are intelligent, methodical and not to be underestimated. Their armor style depends on their physique, though most of them go for lighter armors, thus allowing more movement, some of the taller ones go for the heavier armors, these are often times used as demolitionists, guards and crowd controllers.<br/><br/>Their gunblade closed looks like a thicker version of the human longblade, a cunning ability of the weapon is that it hides the muzzle of the gun within the blade. To fire the weapon the blades must seperate as shown below.<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/QualtaBladeandPulsePistols-1.jpg) (http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/QualtaBlade-1.jpg)<br/><br/>Stalker:<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/Alien_Soldier_sketch_by_steve_burg-d2xtp4f-Copy-1.jpg)<br/><br/>Elite alien warriors, armed with energy beam sniper rifles and explosive minigrenades. They have armor with a built-in stealth field to hide them from normal senses, and a short-range personal teleporter for escaping from dangerous situations.<br/><br/>Demolisher:<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/Hunter.jpg)<br/><br/>The shock troops of the alien army. Ten feet tall, with spiked armor plates surgically grafted into their skin and armor-reinforced bones. No ranged weapons, only two massive clawed fists, but the ability to vomit a spray of super-corrosive acid onto things at close range. Cybernetic speed augments let them charge forward really fast, but only in a straight line - their armored shell makes it so they can't see to their sides or behind them, and they turn slowly, so a coordinated group could keep one distracted while everyone else beats on it from behind. Unfortunately, they hunt in packs.<br/><br/>Specter:<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/Maralyn_Combat_Armor_by_ZaetaK-Copy.jpg)<br/><br/>These are the Special Operations soldiers of the armada, they use agility, speed and stealth to complete their missions rather than numbers and brute strength. They typically wear light armor that refracts light to render them invisible, the only weakness to this is that they can be spotted easily with infrored technology. Though usually this is not a problem because of the speed at which they have been known to infilitrate their enemies ranks or bases. They are by far the hardiest of the soldiers, able to go without food or any kind of liquid sustenance for sometimes months at a time because of the ability to store such sustenance in an extra pouch along their stomach wall. They most commonly use computer viruses to sow confusion, before starting the actual attack with conventional weapons such as blasters or swords.<br/><br/>(If your a Gamer like me, think of the Space Pirates from the Metroid series with all the ruthlessness and cunning but, with superior tech and stealth skills.)<br/><br/>Bull Dozer:<br/><br/>(http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/nightsketcher1/Final%20Fantasy/LA_Armour_Profiles__Magician_by_Gideon020-Copy.jpg)<br/><br/>These guys are basically Demolishers that have been compacted in size for the sole purpose of knocking buildings down, to either make way for their army or to kill as many Human or Mutants as possible. They're heavily armored and their speeds are greater than those of their brethren. They are able to turn with their bull rush but, they need a wide area to do so because of the momentum that they build up. Due to their power, these do not travel in packs but, are sent with a scouting party in two's.<br/><br/>will add more later, getting tired...
