Alien Squad Leader - Cyborg Enslavers from the 8th Dimension!

It has been a long time since I held an army parade.  So, to celebrate 2020 I present my Alien Cyborg Enslaver army, for Alien Squad Leader

Alien Squad Leader Cyborg Enslaver Army

Enslavers can be represented by almost anything in Alien Squad Leader.  The stranger the better.  The horde before you is commanded by the evil Xar, trans-dimensional aliens from the 8th Dimension! Their goal is to enslave the multiverse so they may feast and make sacrifices to their dark gods.

Alien Psionic Masters, 40K Tau Drones, GZG Xar, Drones and Alternative Armies Alien Brain

The Xar command stands are defended by heavily armored drones and equipped with anti-grav sensor bots to enhance their formidable psionic powers.  Their vile leader, Krang is a master of psionics and dimensional travel.

The mass of the army is made up of cyborg slaves: disembodied brains of species from across the universe, encased in an armored shell closely resembling the evil Xar.  Sensor drones keep a watchful eye on the Thralls, passing commands to them from their alien masters.  Cyborg Thralls will never retreat and will ignore all incoming enemy fire.

When necessary, the Xar will take to the field themselves.  Heavily armed with a desire for slaves and meat.

Cyborg Heavy Weapons Teams

When heavy firepower is needed heavily armed drones are ready to blast the enemy into atoms.

Anti-Grav Heavy Weapon Teams, GZG Xar Aliens

Xar anti-grav heavy weapons are able to make pop-up attacks behind their lines of slaves, knocking out enemy armor at will.

Cyborg Heavy Weapon Anti-Grav Platforms, GZG Grav Drones (converted)

Expendable Cyborg Heavy Weapon Anti-Grav Drones are available to provide heavy firepower where  needed and will ignore any and all incoming fire.

When necessary anti-grav armored personnel carriers are ready to unload masses of slaves & troops anywhere on the battlefield.

Alien Grav Tanks, by Old Crow models

Heavily armed Grav Tanks can be called upon when facing enemies with masses of armor or mecha.

Finally, when a massive armored assault is needed armored mecha stand ready to disintegrate their enemies with massed pulsar cannon fire.  Towering over the battlefield they are unhindered by lines of sight and can fire over units with ease.

The army is large, far larger than I would ever field in a single game of ASL.  This army also doubles as an Alien Enslaver army (low tech, with masses of primitives and alien beasts instead of cyborgs) and an Alien Imperial Army (high tech with masses of primitives for support).  Finding new ways to represent the ASL armies is something of an addiction to me.  Perhaps I should seek help.

    1. Thanks Don. Those would work well with them. GZG Xar and Xii go well together too.
