Thoughts On - Alien RPG 6 (No Spoilers) - Updated

 Hello Everyone,

                           Thanks for joining me tonight. Richard, our GM has just got the Alien Colony expansion and recommends it to all GMs. It certainly got his creative juices flowing. He was on fire tonight. 

The episode begins as one of our NPCs had been infected by something nasty, it was gradually coming on over a few days, but we could not find the source of the problem. We popped her into the Auto doc, just to make sure. When she came out of the auto doc, she was silver and proceeded to wipe the floor with us. She killed one NPC and very wisely, four of the party fled. 

                            One of the scientists put the research Lab's nuclear power plant into critical mode, with a 10-minute countdown. The two of us fighting this critter reached record stress levels (14 and 17) before we finally took her down with three minutes to go before the reactor was due to go BOOM. We are now permanently at stress 1 and have a phobia of the colour silver!

                             Later, two of our party working outside got jumped by a silver face-hugger-ish thingy, as I was watching in horror on the monitor. Our Marine went catatonic, due to the phobia he had just received, and the other junior party member drove off in a buggy, with this thing as a passenger. He went into shock and froze at the wheel, crashed the buggy, as you would expect, slashed his leg open and is now bleeding out. That is where the episode ended.

               Side note: This was a three-hour session as opposed to our usual two-hour sessions. Thanks as usual to Richard (GM), John and Kitty. I hope you are having as much fun in your game as we are.    


Regards all,


Ivor Cogdell
