Our weapons are useless! The enemy is Immune to Bullets! What can we mere humans do against the unending procession of impervious foes? Quite a lot, apparently. By making modifications to our puny earth weapons (or, more commonly, to the ammunition) the world can be saved without having to Nuke'Em (which usually doesn't work anyway since 'nukes are bad'). Said modification usually include using the target's Weaksauce Weakness in the weapon, such as silver melted from crosses, UV ammunition, and Cold Iron. Expect the boss monster to be immune thanks to their Cross-Melting Aura.
