'''''Aliens''''' are one of the only two enemy AI Factions in the game, the other being the [[Pirates]]. Any ships affiliated with the Alien faction will attack any ship or [[:Category:Starbase|Starbase]]/[[:Category:Planets|Planets]] that is not their same faction on sight, at a minimum of 15,000 studs away from them. They can also attack the enemy AI faction [[Pirates]].

[[Punisher]]s, [[Decimator|Decimators]] and [[Kneall Bionicle|Kneall Bionicles]] can command alien fleets to capture and assimilate [[:Category:Planets|Planets]] just like player factions, and can cause a server shutdown if it targets (and destroys) [[Mega Base]]. Although other aliens don't target the planet when they come to close proximity, when the mentioned ships calls the aliens on the map to assist them to attack a planet, they will.
