Hi all, I want to plunge into this world...but I have a question/whim Will this game have a lot of ship/base maps within it to work from the start? Hey, and welcome onboard! So, does the Alien RPG "have a lot of ship/base maps" included in what's been released thus far? Well, that depends...

Thanks, it's fixed! What's "The Frontier War " and "Lost Worlds" ? Is that official content? Can't find much info on them The Frontier War is the 7-part campaign in the Colonial Marines Operations Manual sourcebook. It builds on the Destroyer of Worlds cinematic adventure, start...

Ho, thanks for that! Where did you find these informations? Ok, I made a mistake.... Alien RPG rulebook is set in 2180 (p.15) Otherwise, the dates fit: Chariot of the Gods = 2183 ( CMOM p.19, among other places) Destroyer of Worlds & The Frontier War = 2184 ( CMOM p.19, among other places) Hear...

Hello there! I've created a comprehensive guide of the timeline of the Alien franchise (https://xenomorphtimeline.com/) that also includes this RPG and its expansions. I hope that can help someone create scenarios! Happy browsing! =) Good stuff, Inpu! Alien RPG is technically set to 2183 Chariot of...

Great foods for thought, this! It's a thight balancing act just how wrecked and how rich vs rest one makes Earth in the Alien setting. Elysium is an interesting source of inspiration... I guess one could go even further and do Earth as a full Judge Dread/Mad Max hellhole, but I think something more ...

Here’s a subject I hope can bring some discussion, brainstorming, and ideas-bouncing to this forum; Alien RPG stories set (at least in part) on or near Earth, in the 2180s or thereabouts. Anyone having any cool ideas about fun things to do on Earth, or fun ways to incorporate the planet into Alien s...

There's a whole lot of stuff in the Files section of the Facebook group; several years worth of scenarios and other things.

That's an interesting take, DeusXLondon, with lots of lore potential and much atmosphere added to the Lost Worlds setting. It also gives you a shorthand for downtime/off-screen exploration: "Three weeks have passed since last mission, and you have spent it clearing some space junk in [NAME] sys...

Yeah... I do not have a lot to say, really. Sounds like a great and emotionally invested story jj_kapelusz. It's a xeno-adjacent tale, and I do like those a lot. It is the easiest/clearest way to do a non-xeno, Alien-esque story :) Well done! I'm mulling over doing a post on a similar endeavor I did...

Yes, lots of good ideas here. , don't forget a countdown for a nuclear explosion The timer-to-destruction trope is a very good point that I haven’t really used in my homemade scenarios thus far. That’s one of the quintessential Alien -esque tick-boxes, which I’ll definitely have to incorporate in so...
