		In this film, the alien invasion comes in the form of giant pea pods that hatch into human replicas, silently replacing real humans while they sleep.

		As the title indicates, a hostile alien race arrives on Rubi-ka and discovers not the empty ruin they were expecting, but a buzzing industrial world filled with human beings mining Notum, the incredibly powerful energy source that fuels the conflict that's been raging on the planet since colonized by humans.
		The aliens are less than happy at this state of affairs, and decide to take care of the problem using the universal language of diplomacy -- swift and blinding violence against the new incorporated towns that have been springing up all over the place.
		In game terms, the Alien Invasion brings together a whole bunch of new features into a (hopefully) seamless new game dynamic, one that should finally be able to unite players with different MMO game styles into an experience where each preferred game style contributes to a larger whole.

		In addition, killing aliens will let your character gain experience points--as is normal--which can help him or her eventually gain character levels and learn new "perks" (special skills that were introduced in the Shadowlands expansion).

		Before the invasion happens (which players can detect by building a radar station in their city), the AI will analyze the number of players in the city and the levels of those players.
		Once the aliens are on the retreat, the players will have the option of teleporting themselves onto the alien ship to defeat a "boss." Players will have a limited amount of time to hunt down the boss and kill him, or face death when the ship returns to space, where they could not survive.
		A minimum amount of alien experience will be needed for the various new alien items, so defeating the aliens is definitely in the best interest of players, not just to defend their cities.

		The goal was to portray the aliens as technologically advanced in a biological way, while having them perceived as powerful and awe inspiring.

		There may be very few planet's in the universe that are capable of supporting life, so aliens from an overpopulated, over-polluted world might seize any opportunity to ensure the survival of their species.
		Film plots range from human viruses killing aliens, unlikely since alien invaders could surely think of some sort of protective suit, to humans getting nuclear warheads inside their ship, unlikely since aliens could surely detect us trying.

		The aliens travel from planet Metaluna to Earth looking for scientists to aid their dying civilization, a whole bunch of wacky crap goes on, people tag along on flying saucers, and lots of things explode.
		Aliens usurp the bodies and identities of their human victims, and even without the big space shuttle effects and massive explosions, Body Snatchers weaves an impressively eerie tale that's remained etched into the minds of all who've seen it.
		It's a great flick, but like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the message becomes a little murky under all of the metaphors that more or less replace "alien" with "Russian." Regardless, this is the granddaddy of 'em all, and if this small corner of cinema interests you, there's no better place to start.
