Alien RPG Core Rulebook

The official ALIEN tabletop role - playing game takes you into a universe filled with body horror and corporate brinkmanship. Here, synthetics play god, and space truckers and marines become hosts to terrifying new creatures. You're expendable in this harsh universe; survival is the ultimate challenge. This 392 - page full - color hardcover book vividly presents the ALIEN world in 2183 and offers a fast, effective ruleset for an enhanced ALIEN experience. It supports two game modes. Cinematic play, based on pre - made scenarios like the included 'Hope’s Last Day', emulates an ALIEN film's drama in a single session with high - stakes, fast, and brutal action. Not everyone is expected to make it out alive. Campaign play allows long - term, continuous play with the same characters, enabling free exploration of the ALIEN universe in a sandbox style. The rulebook has useful tools for quickly creating star systems, colonies, and more. The game uses the well - known Year Zero Engine, adapted to highlight ALIEN's core themes of horror and space action.

How to use: First, read through the rulebook to understand the game rules and the ALIEN universe in 2183. Decide which game mode you want to play - cinematic for a one - time intense experience or campaign for long - term exploration. For cinematic play, pick a pre - made scenario like 'Hope’s Last Day' and start. For campaign play, use the random tables and tools to create your own star systems and missions. Remember, the game is about survival in a harsh universe, so expect high - stakes situations. Notice: Keep in mind that not all players may survive in cinematic play. Make sure everyone in your group understands the game's horror - themed nature. Maintenance: Since it's a hardcover book, handle it carefully. Avoid spills and keep it in a dry place to prevent damage to the beautiful full - color illustrations.
