PHOENIX ROACH

During our mission we encountered a large colony of hostile insectoids. The most common member of those creatures is the Phoenix Roach. My unit managed to study this deadly creature and report:

1. The adult Phoenix Roach can reach around 64 Pixels hight and is a killing machine! It would attack in groups of 5 to 12 units and would often flee when outnumbered.

2. Hostile! There are unconfurmed reports it can climb walls, burrow underground and spit small fireballs.

3. The Phoenix Roach is immune to fire damage. Flamethrowers wouldn't hurt its thick shell. Furthermore, when it is exposed to heat the Phoenix Roach's heartrate and overall metabolism would rapidly increase, indirectly causing a major boost of reflex, agility and speed. We believe they use heat as a secondary energy source.

4. Their biggest weakness is the cold. Lower temperatures would slow and even kill those creatures.

Now I want one, anything that spits fireballs = badass.

Awesome. Reminds me of Half-Life 2's Antlions.

Looks cool, reminds me of starship troopers. Just one question: How does it walk with three legs? Feels like the back leg would just be in the way.

Maybe AAing on the legs, but I still like it.

I give it a 3/5 right now because I think it could really benefit from some antialiasing, otherwise it looks great.
