Innate Weapons (Apocalypse)

Innate or Grown-In or Built-In weapons are permanently attached to certain alien lifeforms or security stations. They cannot be picked up or recovererd for research.

Grown-In Weapons

These weapon icons are seen if an alien is mind-controlled.

• The stated range of these grown-in weapons does not match the actual tested in-game range.
• Fire Rate is approximated to the nearest 0.1second. [{36 ÷ fire rate} = how many shots per second]
• Accuracy is for the weapon only.
• All weapons, besides the Popper's explosive butt-bomb, recharge.
• The Popper will detonate when it is next to its target (normal behaviour) or LMB on its weapon for instant explosion (mind controlled). It is a one-shot effect.
• The alien's Mind Bender when used, is identical to the actual Marsec Mind Bender.
• The Spitter and Queenspawn use the same weapon icon but have different weapon attributes.

Multiworm

Power: 36 Damage Type: Enzyme Range: (stated) 16.25 cells Range (in-game): 11 cells Projectile Speed: 12 Fire Rate (seconds): 28 (1.3) Accuracy: 88%

Hyperworm

Power: 40 Damage Type: Armor Piercing Bite Range (stated): 3.125 cells Range (in-game): 3 cells Projectile Speed: 12 Fire Rate (seconds): 35 (1) Accuracy: 90%

Spitter

Power: 34 Damage Type: Enzyme Range (stated): 24 cells Range (in-game): 16 cells Projectile Speed: 12 Fire Rate (seconds): 52 (0.7) Accuracy: 75%

Popper

Power: 130 Damage Type: Explosive Blast Radius: 5 cells Projectile Speed: 4 Fire Rate: one-shot only

Megaspawn

Power: 70 Damage Type: Disruptor Beam Range (stated): 62.5 cells Range (in-game): 41 cells Projectile Speed: 26 Fire Rate (seconds): 60 (0.6) Accuracy: 75%

Megaspawn

Power: 100 Damage Type: Explosive Damage Radius: 7 cells Range (stated): 87.5 cells Range (in-game): 59 cells Projectile Speed: 15 Tracking Turn Rate: 30º/sec Fire Rate (seconds): 110 (0.3) Accuracy: 85%

Micronoid Aggregate Psimorph

functionally identical to X-Com's Mind Bender.

Queenspawn

Power: 255 Damage Type: Enzyme Range (stated): 56.25 cells Range (in-game): 36 cells Projectile Speed: 4 Fire Rate (seconds): 64 (0.6) Accuracy: 100%

Error: the Hyperworms "Bite" is a short ranged projectile.
Mis-match: the Megaspawn's disruptor appears to be larger than the launcher.

Range Discrepancy

Visual range of any unit is 24 cells maximum. If any alien visually detects a target, others out of visual range, but within (their individual in-game) weapon range may also engage if there is clear line to fire. A targeted entity does not need to be seen by all since others beyond visual range will know where to aim.

Built-In Weapons

Security Stations have four turrets each with a single weapon built in. The weapon used is identical to the hand-held option provided to X-Com agents.

• A basic Security Station uses a Megapol Plasma Gun (and two clips) in each turret.
• An Advanced Security Station uses a Disruptor Gun (recharging) in each turret.
  

A single turret is mounted on a pedestal and if destroyed, the turret can remain in the air. Any weapon attributes (accuracy, rate of fire, range etc.) is identical to the hand held weapon with the turret mechanism being classed as an autonomous entity (Real-Time) which has its own health/constitution of 500.
