    Default Where to put the alien portal?

    An alien portal is about to open up on Earth in five minutes. Do to a mistake the targeting computer program is sent to your phone/computer, giving you the ability to send it anywhere on the planet. It also informs you that it is for an invading army horde with comparable, but different tech as we have.

    Where do you put it, in order to save the Earth?

    Technically the core is liquid, but fair enough.

    1. The bottom of the Mariana Trench. Their ships will likely be designed for space travel, i.e. low pressure, rather than massive extremes of pressure.

    2. Failing that, facing down into the caldera of an active volcano.

    Oh great, you flood their world and drain the water out of ours. Wilhelmina is going to be happy about THAT one.

    Eh, I'll just conquer all of her cities, as usual (one of my favourite victims in that game, along with Peter of Russia and Jayavarman, mainly because those three seem to pop up the most often. Didn't expect that Civ reference here, though).

    Back on topic, yeah, the portal facing down some lava sounds like a safe bet to send them back home.

    The outer core and inner mantle are liquid.

    That is frickin’ inhumane.

    Especially if you land them and all their equipment in the most popular kebab shop.
