Tritons: Teeth, Claws, and Laser Beams!

Monsterpocalypse: Big in Japan adds more Triton monsters and units from the depths of the sea to the game. This week’s preview highlights some of the awesome abilities these new additions bring to the Invaders agenda.

News from the Beach

As a lone reporter in a news helicopter flew along the coast, reporting on the day’s beach activities, he spotted a large creature surfacing a few miles out into the ocean. The reporter headed toward the creature to get live close-up footage. Before the video feed from the news helicopter was broken, images of a slew of Triton invaders made their way to the television screens of the coastal city’s populace.

Crustacean Cruncher

The first of the Tritons spotted was a gigantic lobster-like monster. In the video, the menacing lobster monster changed from a pinkish tint to a glimmering yellow and then leaped from the ocean waters toward the shore. The yellow glimmer dissipated as the monster landed, and the giant crustacean demolished a posh beachside apartment building with its far-reaching claws. Burrowing up through the road nearby was a steel shell crab. The claws of the giant lobster scooped up the slow-crawling crab and moved it forward.

In both its alpha and ultra form, the new Monsterpocalypse: Big in Japan Triton monster Crustaceor has the claws to Reach out and Crunch someone. His massive claws are used not only to Power Strike the enemy but also to Hoist units into place.

Triton Tech

As the remaining invaders neared the shore, a tremendous wave pushed against the formation of attack crafts, crushing many of them. Then from out of the sea arose the Elemental Champion Aquosia. Hope for the innocent was brief, however, as a group of Triton submarines emerged from the water, firing energy-sapping bolts at the aquatic protector. Aquosia staggered, and the Triton subs showed their ability to traverse land as they reached the surface, revealing a propulsion system similar to that of the Nautilus Blaster that has already played a part in many coastal invasions.

The durable Maco Hunter Sub uses its boosted laser blasts to Disrupt enemy monsters.

This Was No Boat Accident

Coming up from the rear of the invading force was a supersized hammerhead shark, heading straight toward the stunned Aquosia. It moved swiftly past all the Triton attack crafts and, without slowing, shot beams of light from its eyes to blast an abandoned barge in its path. The advancing shark grappled the elemental champion, then pulsed with a crimson glow. Aquosia’s calming luminosity slowly faded as the giant hammerhead consumed her life energy. With strength even beyond its size, the Triton monster heaved Aquosia far over its head.

Before or after going hyper, the Armored Leviathron Power Drains enemy monsters with its power attacks and its Pathfinder ability clears out enemy units. In its ultra form, allied units Hasten to keep up with the fast-moving Triton monster.

Slithering Assaulters

Aquosia splashed down amid a group of oversized eels swimming close to the ocean’s surface. Radiating with electricity, these eels increased the damage to the mighty goddess of the waters. Just before the video ended, several more of these eels swam past the fallen Aquosia at speeds equal to the Tritons’ fastest sea crafts.

Hazardous and Unstable Psi-Eels usually keep a good distance from each other and the rest of their force.
