Lavaland enemies, after testing, are not meant for the station. I mean, duh.
The creatures just aren't strong enough to justify the raised minimum.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
- I don't believe we should be having xenomorphs as actual threats on a consistent basis
- Please make the event use an ICES point, if its intended to be threatening. Right now its just plain annoying for everyone involved, especially when we have 3 monkey storms in a round.

The number of creatures has also been upped to account for balancing around the usage of an intensity credit.

About The Pull Request
This pull request adds two more variants to the portal storm event; space pirates and netherworld creatures.
Why it's Good for the Game
The portal storm event, while theoretically threatening, is entirely underwhelming in practice. Its lack of variety makes it non-threatening and generally uninteresting - in my playtime, it has come across as "oh, it's the constructs or maybe sometimes the syndies, whatever." Adding two new variants should not only add gameplay variation, but also make the event more unpredictable, and thus, threatening.
