Редактирование: TGMC:Minions (раздел)

==Managing the Swarm==

Minions are only ''slightly'' independent, and may require control from the hive to be effective in battle. Minions are able to be controlled by hive leaders, such as those chosen by the Queen, or the Queen and Shrike themselves.

You can also set whether these minions should be '''Defensive''' or '''Aggressive''', so they will either defend you or prioritize taking on other targets.

The premier minion control caste is the Hivemind. Unlike the leaders, the hivemind is able to place a '''global rally point''' for all minions, causing them to begin to travel to the selected position. This is useful for defending critical points, or attacking designated areas. Queen is also able to place such a rally point.

Of course, walking is slow. Why spend all that time when you can just... teleport? Just as with the other Xenomorphs, the Kings '''Psychic Summon''' ability will teleport all minions to his position. Provided they survive, this can prove a devastating blow to any position facing the wrath of the teleporting swarm.
