Anglar army

Sign in to edit

The Anglar Army, also known as the Anglar Empire or simply the Anglars, are a race of amphibious fish-like people originating from the toxic seas of Venom and they operate under the control of the Anglar Emperor. They serve as the main antagonists of Star Fox Command. It was revealed by the account of the Anglar Emperor that the Anglars are not a natural species, but rather an artificial race that was genetically engineered as a result of further experiments in bioweaponry conducted by Andross during his exile to Venom. Despite knowing that their race was created by Andross, the Anglars instead followed the leadership of their own Emperor.

History[]

The Anglars were unknown for some unknown amount of time until a few years after the Aparoid Invasion. They quickly attacked and conquered Corneria and most other planets in the Lylat System using such weaponry as Missiles, Saucerers, Motherships, and other devices. The Anglars are ultimately defeated however, by either the Star Fox or Star Wolf teams, largely thanks to the Anglar Device being used to eradicate the toxicity and hostile climate of Venom's seas and terraforming the entire planet into a ideal paradise world with a warm climate.

Weaponry[]

Most of the Anglars' weaponry is aquatic in nature, such as starfish-shaped ships and crayfish-shaped fighters. These fighters are constructed with Aluminium and trace amounts of chrome, making them immune to corrosion and able to survive the depths of the Venom Sea. Most Anglar fighters contain a core, connecting them to a hive mind. By collecting these cores, the player is able to defeat the Anglars and clear the stage. Large Anglar Motherships float over captured bases, acting as a launching point for Anglar ships and Missiles. These motherships possess a large, powerful beam which can severely damage the player's ship if it makes contact. Ships that are widely used in the Anglar Army are Swarm Fighters, Elite Fighters, Flash Bombers, Angelfish, Puffers, Invader-type fighters plus various original craft belonging to the Emperor's commanders, such as Zoldge, Zazan, Octoman, Zako and an unknown Anglar pilot.

The ultimate Anglar weapon is the Arrow Head, the default final boss of the game. It is a large segmented, eel-like warship piloted by the Anglar Emperor himself. Once a section has been damaged by laser fire, it detaches and shoots beams at the player from the ocean floor. When all of the segments have been damaged, they reform around the head and shoot forward and the player. During this phase, the only weak point lies in the head. Once it is destroyed and if the player is not en route to the default ending (where it self-destructs in outer space), the Anglar Emperor ejects, with the player pursuing him from behind. It is after this phase that the player must fight him in the depths of Venom and finish off the Anglar threat once and for all.

Trivia[]

  • Despite being aquatic animals, it is implied that Zako, Zoldge, and Octoman are not Anglars themselves, but are rather mercenaries hired by them.
