* AwesomeButImpractical: The aliens' Planet Buster, in spades. It takes forever to charge up and requires a manual activation from the planet which ''itself'' needs to charge up, and when it finally does fire it still gives ample time for the beast warriors to formulate a counter-attack. Oh and it's taken out by a ''single'' explosion.
