Anthropod

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anthropods are a race of aliens found in the computer game, X-COM: Apocalypse. They are among the first creatures encountered by the player, and as such have no major resistances, making them fairly easy to defeat.

The aliens are blue-skinned humanoids (hence the name "anthropod"), therefore capable of wielding - and entirely dependent on - the full array of alien weaponry. As one of the only two alien races in the game that actually use hand-held equipment, they are eventually superseded in this role by the more capable skeletoids.
