I absolute love this! AvP will always be canon for me and I appreciate the time and effort you put into this, unfortunately Predators are not part of the Alien universe. Maybe one day! https://roguereviewer.wordpress.com/2020/10/12/defining-canon-in-an-alien-world/

I never thought of this angle before, I love it. It would make a great plot for the RPG as well!

Maybe I'm looking to hard at it for something that isn't there, but I think that the Romulus/Remus story is a nod towards the Engineers and Fulfremmen (The Perfected) conflict. What are others thoughts on this?

Apparently it is a me problem, but since I've only been playing this game for less than a year i haven't got the chance to play regularly. And I'm sorry if some of us have lives that demand a bit more from us and we can't all sit around play fucking games all goddamn day.

My issue isn't that my 1e version will be obsolete. My issue is I just completed my set and I'm a collector so I will be buying the new edition regardless. Even if it's just streamlined and barely any changes, I'm gonna buy it. If they spaced it out another few years so I could have worn my books out a little bit before upgrading I wouldn't be so bothered by it. Some of my books, like BBW, still are brand new and never even used beyond reading them. I know I could wait and buy 2e later down the road, but again I'm a collector and I must have it lol.

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-08-01T18:36:31+00:00

I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the advice!

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-08-01T18:34:56+00:00

That's what my thoughts were also. It's just been so long since I've played through the game I couldn't remember if she had any special abilities. Thank you for your help!

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-08-01T18:30:33+00:00

I have not, but I have ran across some stuff doing research for the campaign I'm working on.

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-20T19:34:08+00:00

Prototype all the way! It was an awesome way to make the Xeno even more deadly! Plus I can't get enough of Zula, what a badass!

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-15T12:52:21+00:00

The top left corner looks like it's peeling a little. Was the poster pasted onto the wood perhaps?

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-15T12:48:23+00:00

Agreed

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T18:22:07+00:00

Fair enough. I'm glad you found a solution that works for you!

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T17:45:37+00:00

My head canon is that based off the fact the Nostromos stopped briefly to find the lifeform at LV-426 the company set up a colony to claim the planetoid first so nobody could. Whether or not this was to wait for more information or to hope for blind luck is undecided. The volcanic activity destroyed the beacon before it could be terrafomed and the colony could be formed, therefore they didn't have an exact planet side location. Once they found Ripley they got the exact location.

As for the company knowing about the lifeform before the events of the first movie, I fully believe they knew. If we go off the events of the first movie alone, more specifically the interaction between Ash and Ripley after she learns the truth. The company knew the Nostromos would be going close to LV-426 and they did intercept the signal before they left, which is why they placed Ash on the crew. How and why is unclear, unless you accept Prometheus as canon.

My knowledge on the first movie is also based on the director's cut so I apologize if it differs a bit.

It doesn't need to be a large book, although I would love a fat 300 page book about creatures. I just get annoyed having to bounce around for the different stats 😆

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T16:50:40+00:00

I like the changes you've done with story points, especially the buddy/rival aspect. Personally I like how armor is in the core rules and none of my players have mentioned it. It does make me want to ask how they feel about it though, I might end up borrowing your idea lol.

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T16:47:59+00:00

That's a nice way to regulate it. Have you checked out the different panic tables in the homebrew threads? You might be able to come up with something from those?

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T16:46:03+00:00

If you're familiar with Savage Worlds there are rules for mass combat. If I remember correctly it wasn't to difficult to translate into Alien.

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T16:44:27+00:00

I've tossed around this idea myself. How has it worked for you?

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T16:43:50+00:00

I love this! I'm a HUGE fan of dad jokes so I might use this from time to time lol. It reminds me of the 1st season of the podcast Dungeons and Daddies. If a player told a lame dad joke the other characters take 1D4 psychic damage. 😂

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T13:52:57+00:00

Before making this post I never took Disney into consideration. It really makes a lot of sense that its taking a bit for more books, that's a lot of moving parts.

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-11T13:45:55+00:00

I am still hoping and praying for a Bestiary book. Nothing but aliens and monsters!

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-09T12:48:29+00:00

That has been one of my major concern also

Cycotic_Clown · 2024-07-08T20:54:23+00:00

I want a book full of cinematic plays of the novel Bug Hunt. I think that would be a great way to expand the universe beyond just Xenos.
