For the minute.

Stuff what WYR references:
Out Of The Shadows
River Of Pain
Fire & Stone comics
Alien Isolation

Wow so all this is officially canon now?

They are until SM says otherwise.

Fixed that for you.

hey I just got the WYR today and I loved the way they wrote the book from the company perspective... they writing at times reminded me of the why Starship Troopers would say "We want you!" at the end hen talking of capturing an alien and to notify them if someone if facehugged...lol

[Corporal Hicks]

It's all part of the flavour which I absolutely loved. Very fun read.

I don't see the difference.

That sounds like a personal problem. And SM would be the first one to correct you on it (and I'm pretty sure he's done so in this thread, in fact).

[Local Trouble]

I mean I don't see a difference since, unless I'm mistaken, SM basically relays whatever he's gleaned from Fox.  That's why he can make unequivocal statements regarding the canonicity of A:CM, for example.

[Xenomrph]

I was more of taking issue with your wording, it came across more as "it's canon because SM says so, because SM decides what's canon" and less "it's canon because SM says so, because SM is FOX's mouthpiece".

Especially since he kinda isn't FOX's mouthpiece, and others here can (and have, including Corporal Hicks, and even myself) relay what they've gleaned from FOX, too. But I imagine "it's canon because Corporal Hicks says so" doesn't have the same ring to it?

[HuDaFuK]

Yeah, but Hicks is just a grunt...

[Xenomrph]

You forgot to say "no offense".

[Engineer]

Alright, we waste him; no offense!!


Sorry, couldn't resist! Lol

[Nostromo]

You're dogmeat pal!

[Perfect-Organism]

NO!!!! He's got to go back!

[Engineer]

They cut the power
