Old Aliens ("pen and paper") RPG - random amusing find

[banjo_oz]

Happened to be looking through the Leading Edge PnP RPG today and couldn't help but think of A:CM when I glanced at the examples given for "success and failure" rolls.

Gearbox and Sega shooting for a -7, end result was a +7? 

Seriously, the RPG is pretty crap and unfocused rule-wise, IMO, but has some nice setting stuff. A:CM wasn't *as* bad IMO as a lot of people think, but the disappointment after all this time and what we saw is very painful (that E3 demo? wow!).

The setting stuff and what they wrote about the Aliens was only reason I bought the game (pre-Alien3).  I always thought the scope of such an RPG would be pretty limited.
