Mini-UFOs are the main attack aircraft of the Mars People.
Information[]
Mini-UFOs are highly mobile aircraft that fly from the sky and catch the player by surprise. While their weapons are slow-moving lasers, many appear in groups to make up for it. The Rugname can deploy extra-durable mini-UFOs in large numbers.
