Baby Gargantua Class: Alien monster Threat: High Weapons: Dual flame throwers; flame stomp Special abilities: None Role: Attack Unlike the regular Gargantua, the Baby Gargantua is smaller and hasn't developed a full shell yet. This makes it vulnerable to bullets. The flame stomp knows no limits to height. Standing on a platform will not save you from it, instead move aside out of its way.
Gargantua Class: Alien monster Threat: Very high Weapons: Dual flame throwers; flame stomp Special abilities: Can self-destruct destroying things near it Role: Attack Gargantuas have a strong armor shell making them invulnerable to bullets.

Mechanical

These mechanical foes often aid the human military class and are immune to common weaknesses humans have such as poison and Barnacles, but not Gargantuas. Bullets often have much less effect.

Small mounted turret Class: Machine Threat: Medium Weapons: Machine gun Special abilities: None Role: Defense Mounted turrets will switch off and retreat to their enclosure after not seeing a target for a minute.

Large mounted turret Class: Machine Threat: High Weapons: Minigun Special abilities: None Role: Defense Mounted turrets will switch off and retreat to their enclosure after not seeing a target for a minute.

Robot grunt Class: Machine Threat: High Weapons: MP5; M16; M16 with grenade launcher; Shotgun; Hand grenades; Kicking Special abilities: Self-destruct Role: Attack When a robot grunt gets heavily damaged it will begin to malfunction and give off random shocks, being nearby is dangerous.

Robot grunts self-destruct upon death.
Apache helicopter Class: Human military Threat: Very high Weapons: Shell cannon; twin hellfire missiles Special abilities: None Role: Support The Apache is only vulnerable to bullets at its cockpit and rotor engines. Using an RPG is the best way to take it down. The Apache will crash when destroyed creating a large explosion, so stay well clear.
