Thoughts On - Alien RPG 5 (No Spoilers)

 Hi Everyone,

                       I just thought I would give you a quick report on the Alien RPG. It is almost one year since we started the game and apart from the odd week here and there due to work commitments, we have been playing it on a weekly basis on Friday nights, two-hour sessions of mayhem. This goes to show what the GM has at his disposal in the way of terror and shock tactics. We keep coming back for more.

                            This week, one of the party (not me) attempted to take out a face-hugger type alien attacking a party member who was wearing a spacesuit, with his flamethrower, the fact that three other Colonial Marines were in the line of fire and coming to help their buddy did not seem to bother him. RESULT - Three almost unconscious Marines, one with a broken leg. The Alien was weak, but still up and battling. I finally managed to bag it with a pistol shot. SPLAT! Just a day in the life of a Colonial Marine.

        We are due to have some colonists arriving soon, I'm not too sure what they will think of the amenities that we have here, or rather what's left of them after all sorts of critters have been rampaging through them.

Thanks again to Richard and John for a great game.

Watch your six!.
