Difference between revisions of "Venomian Army"

Again, the lizard armies of Andross returned in this non-released game, using more powerful weapon then before. Using battleships of unknown classes, they stormed past the outer-lying planets via interplanetary hyperspace. The Venomian army also employed the very first versions of Bio-weapons, such as the [[Mirage Dragon]] seen destroying a fleet of Cornerian vessels in the opening credits. It is also non-canon due to the game never being officially released.

In Star Fox 64 (a remake of Star Fox, making Star Fox for the SNES non-canon), the Venomian army is again wreaking havoc on Corneria. In this game, Andross was exiled to planet Venom due to his experiments that nearly turned [[Arwingpedia:Corneria]] into a lifeless wasteland. During his time on Venom, he managed to amass a very large army, also creating planetary defenses, such as the Bolse Defense satellite, and Area-6. He also built many factories, and armory plants to build his army which would eventually be his tool for revenge. Once his army was assembled, armed, and his fleets were loaded, he set a course for Corneria, and the other planets, using the blitzkrieg tactic. Popular speculation has given rise to many theories behind the Venomian army in SF64. Such as, "Are they apes, or are they still lizards?" Many believe that since in Star Fox assault the "remnants of Andross's forces”, were apes, the vast majority of the Venomian army were actually apes, instead of lizards. But, during gameplay, there are multiple accounts that the Venomain army might still contain lizard forces. But, because Andross is an ape himself, that may be a large explanation for why they would be apes.

In Star Fox Assault, the majority of the Venomian army is seen as apes only. This fact is also supported by the fact that within [[Wolf]]'s [[Sargasso Hideout]], boxes clearly showing Andross's insignia could be found throughout the level. Another way this fact is supported, is that Andross's nephew, Andrew is seen as the new Emperor of the Venomian Empire.

During the years following the conclusion of the [[Arwingpedia:Aparoid Invasion]], the Venom army began to rebuild itself. Only this time, the army only consisted of bipedal amphibious creatures known as the Anglars. The Venom army itself was reformed to only include these strange creatures, replacing the need for any other type of species. But, in one ending of Star Fox Command, [[Dash Bowman]], grandson of Andross, rebuilt the Venomain Empire, once again enlisting the aid of ape soldiers. It is unknown what has become of Lylat since Dash rebuilt the empire.
