'''''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 13,000 studs away from them. They can also attack the enemy AI faction [[Pirates]].

If the planet is heavily defended by '''Aliens''' and/or upgraded, a single [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]] may not be enough to take it back. It may take more than one faction's limit of Dreadnoughts and multiple sieges to take back a heavily defended Planet taken by a spawned Kneall Fleet.

==Strategy==
'''Swarmer'''
The [[Swarmer]] is the weakest Alien [[Ships|ship]] compared to other non-event Aliens that spawn in the game, armed with one tiny [[Turrets|laser]]. The best ways to destroy this ship are with a [[:Category:Destroyer|Destroyer]], such as the [[Chimera]], or any other ship with light or high-accuracy turrets. Swarmers provide minimal loot unless destroyed in large numbers.
'''Bruiser'''
The [[Kneall Bruiser|Bruiser]] is very slow for an alien, coming in at 79 top speed, but it is armed with two tiny [[Turrets|lasers]] instead of one, however, it is somewhat easy to kill due to being slow, just note the backward-firing spinals.
'''Outrider'''
The [[Outrider]] is virtually a Bruiser with significantly more health, more speed, and a [[Turrets|Railgun]] included also, however; the spinals are same as the bruiser, except they aren't backward-firing, similar Bruiser killing strategies can be used for this one.
'''Punisher'''
The [[Punisher]] is very powerful when paired with other aliens, it is not recommended to kill it first if you are using a weak [[:Category:Battleship|Battleship]] or below, as it has accurate, rapid firing turrets. It is recommended to fight the Punisher either above or below it as it will lose half of it's turret firepower due to turrets being distributed on the bottom and top.


Unlike weaker alien ships, The [[Punisher]] can call for aid when engaging and enemy and will siege starbases or planets until it has captured/destroyed the target planet.
You can also use a captured planet to your advantage by using it as a lure making it easier for Aliens to come to you, ''(Keep in mind that you must only have a maximum of a Level 1 Planet in order to do this.)''


'''Decimator'''
The [[Decimator]] is virtually a Punisher except it is much slower, bigger, tankier, and stronger; it is much more powerful when paired with a Punisher and more aliens. You can exploit it's blind spot on it's back and it's AI will turn on it's back when it's close enough to you, losing over half of it's firepower. The Decimator can call other alien ships to it's aid and will attack starbases/planets when near them.
'''<s>Bionicle</s>'''
<s>The [[Kneall Bionicle]] is a powerful alien [[:Category:Battleship|Battleship]] that is slower than the Punisher, but more powerful in terms of firepower due to it having access to [[Spinal Weaponry]]. Just like the Decimator, it's AI will turn on it's back and move away once it gets close enough, losing firepower and can be exploited. The Bionicle can call other alien ships to it's aid and will attack starbases/planets when near them.</s> ''(Doesn't Spawn)''
==Version History==
==Version History==
Version .65b saw the introduction of four new Alien ships; the [[Outrider]], [[Kneall Bruiser|Bruiser]], [[Kneall Scout|Scout]], and [[Kneall Prototype]], said to be a weaker [[Prototype X-2]]. These ships, along with the original two aliens ([[Swarmer]] and [[Punisher]]) were able to be spawned at Myriad III when fully upgraded.
