Great video! I found lot's of Easter eggs scattered around the scenario, currently laughing at UPP destroyer name Trakhni menya which in Russian means "F... me". basicalyy he go what he asked for xD

I didn't know that! very cool. If you find any more list them, others including me would love to see.

I watched a few different game channels play through of this, it does not disapoint! Yes more Aliens Please!

Very helpful. TY! I don't understand why the players would know Reese is dead in the beginning briefing. I'm just going to show the AWOL's pictures and not info.

@stenlis 3 года назад

Great break down I hope your channel can attract more viewers because your videos are an awesome resource for GMs. I have one remark - you mentioned that you found the playable characters kind of bland. I just ran my first session and thought players brought the characters to life very well just following the instructions in the book. Hammer was a psychotic junkie, Iona always found excuses why he should stay back and then screamed like a little girl when the drone at Marshal's jumped him and Chaplain was wonderfully manipulative doing stuff behind other PC's backs. I think the problem is that Silva, Mason and Dante have a kind of straight-shooter soldier persona - if your players choose to play them, you will miss out on a lot of the interactions.

@RPGNook 3 года назад

Hey! thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you had a good time with the scenario i liked it a lot. Destroyer uses dry cliched, 1 note personalities, that can be summed up as The Coward, or The Psycho, i agree, and there is just nothing beyond it, that is scooby doo levels of character creation. You can have a lot of fun with that, and sure the players are free to expand and give them that depth. But it shouldn't excuse the scenario for not providing it, and I'd have liked to have seen more, it would have lifted it a lot. I can put my 6 best players into the worst scenario ever written and it will be a great time. It doesn't make that scenario better. Just means that you have good players that can do more with less. All my players grumbled about this when asked to choose, and Chaplin was taken. As he is the only one with any backstory or care in his creation, the others are just window dressing.

@stenlis 3 года назад

@@RPGNook ok, I guess then I don't understand what you meant when you said the Aliens movie did it better - there was no more depth to Gorman, Vasques or Hicks - one line personality with at most one bullet point of character development. The rest is just actor's presentation of a simple trope...

@RPGNook 3 года назад

@@stenlis I was talking more about the visuals of the marines in the film comparison, they all look the same. That was more about their appearance, where in the films they all look visual distinct, and aren't forgettable at a glance. In the film, the actors were allowed to customise their armour, graffiti it, and make it their own. Lived, in. But the film also portrays the characters better, and where on the surface they look 1 note, they grow in the film and show their depth. Hudson is a coward, but stands and fights like a boss, Hicks takes on the command he should have had and doesn't want. Gorman dies brave and wins the respect of Vasques in the end, after being an inexperienced rookie. He learns what soldiering is about, not the "by the book" sadly too late for all of them. They are still deeper than the PCs, and thats from an viewers point of view, what the cast might have knew about how to play their characters would have been a lot more. Their motivations, goals, wishes, dreams. That is what the player needs too.

@Darude_Sandstorm 2 года назад

I don't ever comment on YT videos, but this really helped me string along how to run this adventure. The book itself doesn't really give you the points of light, just a bunch of text about each location.

@RPGNook 2 года назад

Glad to hear it helped. Have a great time running it! And let us know how you got on.

@grumpybuddha927 6 месяцев назад

Great and helpful summary. One mistake, though -- the formula that Ekford carries and the one that looks like a stimulant is the weaponized *2B* strain, not the original. The Medbay is the best way to remove Dante's Chestburster, but I can also having the original around and giving it a 1/3 chance of working.

@BotecodoDM 2 года назад

@jasonmountain4643 2 года назад

Last weekend I ran Chariots for my group and they had a blast! I plan on running this one also. Would you recommend folks create their own marines?

@RPGNook 2 года назад

The problem is the andriod pregen is tied heavily to the story, but other than that, i'd definitely do it, especially if you have picked up the marine book, the expanded jobs are quite nice. If you do that, have Chaplin, the android as an NPC.

@jasonmountain4643 2 года назад

@@RPGNook cool. I already planned on the Android as npc.

@ziabatsu4422 Месяц назад

Players that get salty in games like this honestly ruin the fun for me. What's the point if playing if you aren't having fun, even if your character dies. I think it's hilarious when bad things happen to my characters.

Man good thing Reese is NPC since rolls with him are going to be pretty impossible with his low stats. Most amusing profile though.

@REfan2002 5 месяцев назад

I just bought the Alien RPG core book, the Colonial Marines operations book and the Destroy of Worlds. Is it ststed that we have to use the pre-gen characters or can we use our own?

@RPGNook 5 месяцев назад

The pregens have a link to the plot but you can give the ones that matter to your own pcs. The main one that matters is the android.
