Description: Plasma Bugs are the anti-aircraft and artillery of the Arachnids, aliens that counter-attacked the Earth (in Argentina) with asteroids in 1997. These bugs can fire a plasma burst from their abdomen capable of destroying capital star ships; these bursts are thought to be guided by the hive mind. If the Arachnids were able to place them on a planet in our solar system, the prognosis would be negative.

Description: Brain Bugs are the smartest of the Arachnids, peace-loving aliens that counter attacked the Earth in Buenos Aries (Argentina) of all places in 1997. It is believed that Brain Bugs coordinate Bug attacks; they also gather intelligence from human enemy combatants by inserting a mandible probe into their squishy brain. These creatures are slow and ponderous, so they are often carried from place to place by Chariot Bugs.
