Created at Global Game Jam 2012

The species are:

The Swarm - Places tokens twice each turn. Gets a biomass bonus when controlling four or more zones.

The Shredder - Gets a Biomass bonus for killing enemies

The Canker - Placing tokens in a zone converts enemy tokens. Gains a Biomass bonus for of their tokens at end of the game.

The Ampulex - Placing in a zone, moves enemy tokens out forcing new conflict. Earn bonus biomass for tokens killed in this way.
