on EASY the aliens are about 20% easier
NORMAL is standard
HARD they are about 20% harder

Taking into account that some weapons are near useless against some aliens, this can add up.



Also, on EASY mode the regions pay out a lot more funds (729k comes to mind)

On HARD, the funds from monthly is less, 429k.

Normal is in the middle.

One other thing, the different Alien Eras (with tougher aliens in each era) seem to appear quicker on the harder settings. Release of these eras is also tech-based, but the difficulty settings tend to make things happen a little sooner (time-based).
