If the BETA are not advancing on the surface, then they dig underground as they invade, and there's no way to tell where they will strike. Humans have a device like creep meters, but I don't know the exact name of it. It's still doesn't help much other than telling them "more" is coming.

Nuclear mines? Depends whether the country in question will want to use such things on their homeland, and follow the example of Russia and China. They can try to lure the small horde there. I highly doubt it'd stop the entire BETA horde since like everyone said, their numbers are just overwhelming unless there's just a few thousands of them or so... The mines will easily kill the BETA, but all of them? VERY unlikely. The mines will be all used up in no time. It'd be great if there are a LOT of reserves. In addition, reinforcements tends to show up shortly especially if they are nearby the hives. The battle of attrition at the most frustrating manner.



Nuking the hives is not very effective since the laser class are at the top of the monument, shooting at anything within range. Even if a bomb is dropped and reaches the bottom of the shaft, will it take out everything including the extra branches that stretches really far and deep?
