Plasma Pistol |
This alien sidearm fires
green bolts of superheated matter which is capable of penetrating even
the thickest of armor. With a relatively high ammo capacity, this outclasses
even the strongest Terran weapon. Due to Elerium-115 shortages, the use
of plasma weapons has been restricted by the U.S.S.A. Obviously, the aliens
have little respect for the U.S., thus these pistols are quite common among
the alien scum. |
|
Plasma Rifle |
This standard-issue alien
weapon is quite a bit more powerful than the plasma pistol. Capable of
fully-autmoatic fire, this weapon is all the more dangerous because of
its high ammo capacity - at 32 shots per clip, an alien equipped with one
of these could take down up to 32 troopers. |
|
Heavy Plasma Cannon |
This heavy alien weapon
is used mainly by the stronger alien races such as Snakemen, Mutons and
Floaters. It weighs as much as a loaded rocket launcher and packs more
punch, minus the explosion. In addition, it can auto-fire. Aliens carrying
this weapon are a great danger to Cold Force operatives. |
|
Alien Grenade |
This is the same as the
terran grenade - it's two balls attached to each other. Pull the small
ball off to prime the grenade, then throw it. This has a larger blast radius
and more power than the standard grenade. |
|
Blaster Launcher |
This has a mini-computer
which can program the Blaster Bomb - shaped like a frisbee - to fly around
buildings, though windows and then to hit a trooper on the other side of
a street. A single blaster bomb can completely annihilate a small building,
causing taller buildings to collapse. Aliens carrying this weapon should
be eliminated immediately. |
|
Plasmathrower
|
This alien weapon is quite similar
in concept to the flamethrower. It releases a dense cloud of plasma out
to a range of about 5-6 meters, boiling the flesh and armor of anyone inside
the area of effect.

Alien Powered Armor
|
This armor was first encountered by
the Cold Force in 2003, during the Great Alien War. Unlike the earlier
models, the newest specimens have no exposed cables. This armor is made
specifically for mutons - no other race is able to fit into the suit. The
armor's weaknesses are that it consumes large amounts of elerium for power
and that it can easily be penetrated/cut by laser fire.

Small Alien Hovercraft
|
These hover a few meters above the
ground. Using Elerium for propulsion, this vehicle can reach speeds of
up to 200 kilometers per hour. Usually these carry up to 8 man-sized aliens
and pack some sort of on-board plasma turret.

Alien Flyers
|
These were what used to be called
"small-sized UFO's". Now that they are pretty well identified, it has become
evident that the aliens have reorganized the roles of their vehicles since
the Great Alien War. The smaller alien craft, usually carrying between
1 and 12 crew members are used as fighters. The medium-sized
|
ships are used as supply and transport
vessels. The largest alien ships consume a prohibitive amount of elerium-115
and are almost never seen in the air. Most alien ships pack one or more
heavy plasma turrets, while some pack fusion missile launchers (similar
in concept to the smaller blaster launchers).
