After witnessing the miserable defeat of humanities
conventional weapons, scientists were forced to
birth from their minds, new ways to assault the
aliens. One of the brain childs in the time crunch,
was the Markalite Cannons. A huge solar disk that
could reflect the radiation beams from the Mysterian
dome, as well as emit one of their own. It was
also outfitted with tank treads for minor maneuverability.
However they did run into the problem of how to
move these massive steel machines into range of
the base. If the aliens saw before they were ready,
then their hopes of victory would be dashed. So,
they decided to outfit the beam weapons with Markalite
Gyros, a pair of powerful rockets that would fly,
and land the Cannons in distance, in little time.
Less than a week passed, before the Markalites
were ready and sent into war. They were strategically
placed on the outskirts of the base, and fired
from all sides. Though the Mysterians were far
from defenseless. Controlling the water around
them, they were able to topple one of the cannons,
while a tunneling Moguera took out another. But
the combined strength of the remaining Markalites,
the Alpha and Beta Ships, and human turncoat spies,
were too much. And man defeated the outer space
threat once and for all.
