The Movie
Aliens is a great set of movies that really keep you one the edge of your seat. Because at any moment a face hugger or drone can jump out at you and say hello. It's great to see a Sci Fi movie come out with a belivable plot to it: realistic aliens, realistic weapons and so many other details made thi movie make you love it.
The Weapons
|
Some of the weaponary used were advanced and yet some were still not. The shot gun was the standard pump-action scattergun, useful for proximity fire. Although not to effective against XT's at a distance. The M41A Pulse Rifle fires 10 x 24 mm explosive-tipped, caseless rounds, Reasonable effective against Exoskeletal Armour. Flame Thrower launches jets of Napthal which adheres to the Aliens and continually burns them, Extremly effective. That brings us to the Smart Gun, a steady harness, smart targeting, man portable support weapon. Nothing can survive a couple shots of this.
The Aliens
The Aliens are multiple-stage creaturs, taking different points in their life-cycles. First-stage aliens emerge from egg-like constructs and attach themselves to 'host' beings, implanting embryonic creatures which would grow and emerge from their hosts, killing said host in the procrss. They then grow to Drone status and incorperated the concentrated acid for blood. Therefore battle with a Drone can result in a dangerous, acidic spray.
The Queen
The Queen is the center of all attention in the colony. The aliens work like a bee hive, collecting hosts so that the Queen can make eggs to inpregnate the hosts which makes more aliens. When the Queen is killed and there are still aliens one will spontaneously change and become a queen. The Queen can be in constant communication with all of her drones through a exta sensor device that sends out mental instructions out to all the drones. The queen is the finall stage an alien will reach, if reached at all.
