An idea spawned from history in my humanities course. Reading about all three of these and their representation actually made me think they'd be good aliens to fight.
They can be tweaked as needed, pictures will be drawn soon enough.
Babylonian Guardian Winged-Lion Group
Characteristics:
Protecting, watchful, observant
Likes:
Tea and crumpets, hand puppets.
Dislikes:
Hunters, people who bother them, Orange Coke
Quote:
”You shall not pass.”
Other Information:
Both are merely worth 5 points each. They are however incredibly tall. Their six legs, which detach from the walls they are usually forced to stay on during viewing time, wield 5 9-inch claws that can cut deeply. While they are the ‘gate keepers,’ shooting them in the head would effectively to bring them down.
Their tails and wings are also able to cut. The wings actually generate iron-feathers, allowing them to be shot out, fanning out to apply a wide range for such an attack.
A keen sense of smell and sound is a double-edged sword.

Royal Tomb of Ur Group
Characteristics:
Hive-minded, destructive but protective.
Likes:
The Prince, protecting the Prince, music
Dislikes:
Disrupting their beauty sleep, no music, sweets
Quote:
“The court’s highest honor is death.”
Other Information:
Of 75, each but the ‘Prince’ is worth 1 point. The ‘Prince,’ or the ‘hive’ of the group is worth 10. A total of 84. However, the person kills the ‘Prince’ will get only 10, no more, no less.
Yet, note that the first 74 (courtesans, musicians, aides and helpers) are following only one alien. He appears to be the boss, but is not so. The Prince merely controls their hive-mind. They are very particular in patterns, and unless shot in the ‘correct’ area, they continue on.
The Prince is the mind of the beings, if killed, all the rest will go berserk and into a form of shambling corpses, no real features and will be needed to be taken out or be run from. They have no great speed, but are in larger numbers than most groups of hunters.
Literally, this group of aliens is a hive-mind. Proceed with extreme caution.

Assyrian King
Characteristics:
Violent, angry, vengeful, boasting.
Likes:
Death, blood, and violence
Dislikes:
Losing, dying, being preyed upon
Quote:
“I have killed a Lion with my own hands!”
Other Information:
Many have heard of the Assyrian Kings, brutal men who would kill lions to show their bravery. What they don’t know is that this particular ‘King’ is the boss alien, a derivative of the same method. His total points, realistically, is 15, but capturing him is a better bet than killing. He wields a sword and huge shield, allowing himself to guard against sword attacks from a hunter. The best bet against him is to use the X-Gun, X-Rifle or Y-Gun. One would need to use their suit, for most of the fight.
