The former Soviet Union's radioactive rivers and lakes attracted unwanted attention from our Benevolent Overseers.

Little did they know that the Russian winters would permanently disable their hated slave-hauling space barges. "General Winter" can always be counted upon to help stop invasions of the Motherland.

On the other side of the world the Benevolent Overseer's orbital extraction borehole mine in Chicago sits unfinished. Will they ever return? Will we be ready?

This extra-terrestrial invasion was a project for the bicentennial of Mexico. Believe it or not was an authentic proposal... and it's the proud of the Architect who propose it!.

Maybe as part of the design they had to paint and add some special effects to the buildings so that this ugly thing didn't look so bad!

Anyways, I LOVE This building. I've always tried to find more pictures of it but I can't seem to find any. Is it even still standing? Because I'd love to visit it.

Still standing, still operating. Paste "Санаторий Курпаты" (Kurpaty Sanitarium) into Google Images for lots o' pics.
