Evade in Space Combat?

So this was removed but still left under weapon firing? Why was it removed? Did it make space combat last too long? Without it the pilot feels more passive in space combat except for ramming or boarding actions.

Re: Miniatures tips.

I have the Prodos minis but only plan to use them for the Xenos for the most part. For PCs I've been using Xombicide Invader. I backed the kickstarter and got all the stuff so tell my players they can choose anyone not in power armor. Sadly, we've only met once in person in the last few months for o...

Re: [Moved] Survival Rate?

I've only had one session so far but I think survival is going to come down to 2 things: 1) How much combat do you have? Combat seems to be pretty brutal in this game so having it as often as you might in other games is going to result in PC death sooner or later. 2) How often, if at all, do the Xe...

Re: Question : Xenomorph death and Synthetic reparation

Thanks a lot again for this great answer and the time you spent ! Ok again, i found this too powerful to be true.  It means, if there is a stealth xeno in the zone a PC can be condemned or worse can die without a warning lol  I find this really good for one shot scenario but it's a bit hard for a c...

Re: Campaign Mode... some thoughts

Plus, the stress system is a great push-your-luck mechanic. One not present in Traveller and Serenity, present but much less brutal in Firefly or Savage Worlds.  Have I named Traveller, Savage Worlds or anything else as alternative? Yes, sounds like hell of fun. Session 0 "Wanna play a longter...

Re: Spaceship fuel use

I've turned fuel, air, food and water into supply dice. I make my players roll for fuel at the start and end of a trip and for the others roughly once a day. If it needs a refill I use the prices found in Coriolis.

Re: How dose Quick Draw - Rapid Fire combo works?

A few things. As far as dual wielding Pulse Rifles go, I don't remember seeing them shoot one in Aliens with only one hand. I'd be tempted to say that all rifles are two handed weapons and leave it at that. On this Quick Draw and Rapid Fire talent I'm not really seeing how it is broken to be honest...

Re: Space Trucker Campaign Ideas

My group is playing freelance truckers. The job tables give decent cash payouts though they're discovering that one or two accidents can be massive setbacks especially with spare parts costing 100k-200k. My players are turning a bit more to scavenging and going further with it than the book. "C...

Re: Using xenomorphs as a biological weapon

I think that Ripley from Alien 4 would be a more desirable end product. Genetically engineered human alien hybrids. Ripley? No. One fatal flaw for a product - no control over it. Just do what they did in Suicide Squad. Put a bomb in her head. Blow up one of the other clones so she knows it's real. ...
