Just realised there are 4 major bosses in the game
Snarbolax
Jelly King
Roarmaulos twins
Vanaduke
And there are 4 members of Alpha sqaud
Euclid
Grantz
Parma
Rulen
Is this a coincidence or a clue to the continuation of SK?
OMG is this a coincidence I found out in the game

Parma was cleaved in two and each half was used to power each of the twin turrets?

HOLY FRICK
THE NUMBER 4 OCCURS MULTIPLE TIMES IN A GAME? WHOOA MIND BLOWN
(sorry, just... this post has no reason to exist unless you share an interesting theory or observation, not just that two numbers are the same)

I've been shocked and taken by storm. By Jove, this has got to be the greatest discovery of mankind as of yet. I'm calling the New York Times. The History Channel will want to show this on their Aliens show, too. Get the Greek guy with the shock of wheat for hair to say something edifying on the matter.

@Thimol
Way to go on the irony and this post is useless just cause the numbers are the same.

Develop the idea
Well, keep thinking. Not a bad start. From what I recall, one of them was turned into a Trojan (the Guardian one). The others had roles similar to the LD classes. The Snarby seems Recon-ish and the RJ is a bit Striker-y (although barely). I don't know about Vana and the Twins.

A much simpler reason: The Alpha Squad was the first party to enter the Clockworks, and the party limit is four.

The guy who killed all those children used a gun that was similar to other guns which shot bullets.
MY PERCEPTION OF THE UNIVERSE IS UNRAVELING AT THIS REVELATION
But seriously, this is just a result of the constant desire of the human mind to find patterns in abso-goddamn-lutely ANYTHING.

"one of them was turned into
"one of them was turned into a Trojan (the Guardian one)"
No, that was someone who entered the clockworks after the alpha squad. Once you complete KoA, you get a recon module that tells you that they all entered the core

If I remember correctly, only
If I remember correctly, only Vanaduke and Royal Jelly were present at launch. Snarbolax was added later, and then Roarmulus Twins after that.

I was about to say, isn't 4 the Chinese equivalent of 13 (In terms of unlucky numbers)?

Four members because they needed 4 modules to leave behind?

Didn't they leave 6(including core and gauntlet).

@Owlert
I remember SK before the Twins, and I do think the Snarbolax wasn't there at the beginning, but all this stuff with the members of the Alpha Squad and missions came after RT.

There are 4 Halos,
There are 3 Divine Snipes

"I was about to say, isn't 4 the Chinese equivalent of 13 (In terms of unlucky numbers)?"
In a sense, although I thought it was more like if a number in your situation is 4, you're screwed. So like, 4 people in your group, your weapon serial number is 4444, or something like that, considering the superstition stems from the pronunciation. Use the wrong tone or accent, and you're going to pronounce the word for 'Die'.
'4' and 'die' both have the same phonetic spelling and pronunciation, so the tone and character writing are the only things separating them.

The Japanese Number of death is 4...

There were recon modules at least before the twins. I'm not sure if they were introduced at some point or if, even when there was just Vanaduke, there were recon modules for the bosses.
Why isn't Seerus a major boss?

Chinese, Japanese, Korean. "Death" and "four" share the same pronunciation in these languages.

Four.
Four major bosses.
Four Alpha Squad members.
Four max party members.
Four scuttlebots in the Munitions Factory boss depth.
Four minimum members to make a PvP match.
Four keys in the Royal Jelly Palace.
Four Halos.
What does it mean? I have a theory. It means nothing. Coincidence.

Seerus doesn't get a recon mod because
you have to buy it, atleast currently. Anything that is a recon mod and must be paid for is going to not happen.

I guess Alpha Squad was strictly F2P.

So Alpha Squad was long dead when we're keeping on making accessories and guild halls.
