I think we should give Wiz a chance to edit the "diabolical plan." We have learned that none of the vampires can get up there. Personally, i don't see the logic in Hive having humans manning a the laser in some kind of space station. It could totally be an unmanned thing, which would make a lot more sense.
we may however have enough vampires with appropriate abilities to get into a Hive base on earth.
It's currently manned for two reasons.
One it's currently still under construction, while in a operational state it's kinda looking like the Death Star II.
The second is that it can act as a secondary base of operations should one be needed.
@thewizardguyYou misunderstand. Say Victor is going all sneaky like through the tunnel, the sensors will detect him and activate the laser grind for the corridor.
You should also take note that you are attacking an underground city about the same size as New York but more biodomey, which has 32 non-renewable power stations. Meaning that simply cutting off one power cable won't knock out the entire grind and will definitely, if you hadn't already trigger a mass lockdown.
