I have to say, It would be excedingly hard not to make them too too hard, being as they are SO hard. I mean, damn, there Xenomorphs....can anyone possibly say what they think might be harder than a Xenomorph ? except for possibly another larger and harder Xenomorph ?

I for one have no clue.

But I accept with total conviction that were I to come face to face with a Xenomorph, it would be harder than me.

perhaps they should be unique summons which are very expensive .
but all in all i am no big fan of the alien series .

@ spirokeat : the predator is even harder than Xenomorphs

hmm, so the Predator is harder than the Alien...accepted...

Arnold Schwarzenneger (sp?) is harder than the Predator...so lemme map this out....

Premise 1 - The predator can completely beat an alien.

Premise 2 - Mr Schwarzenneger can completely beat a Predator.

Conclusion - Therefore Arnie is harder than BOTH a predator and an alien.

Looks valid and sound to me.

rofl

i had more in mind the alien vs predator game series

but since arnie can even beat the devil in end of days he surely is harder than BOTH a predator and an alien

The devil wasnt part of our initial enquiry and so cannot be placed into the logic of that argument...but how about his.

god beat the devil sometime during the 'biblical period'

Arnie also beat the devil in the end of days...

So !

Premise 1 - God is more powerfuil than the devil..

Premise 2 - Arnie is also more powerful than the devil

Conclusion - Arnie is probably as powerful if not more than God..

Or we could spice up the validity somewhat with a supressed premise

Premise 3 - It requires a God to beat the devil.

Conclusion 2 - Arnie could be a God.

Yeah, that could work.

Predators hunt lone xenomorphs on planet they seeded small numbers on, they dont go to hive worlds and hunt em there.... why? Because in large numbers the aliens destroy the predators and the xenomorphs breed faster then rabbits

Surely they breed at exactly the same speed as whatever they are using for hosts ?

So in the case of beast X which breeds at Y speed the alien Z would breed at an initial rate X * Z then at a reduced rate of X * Y until eventually all you had left were Z.

At that point. Z will go something like 'oh'

and X won't be doing much of anything and it certainly won't be getting up to any of the fun that precludes Y.

If you get my meaning.
