Had the Starter Set delivered today. Thanks to the Map of the Middle Heavens, I now know where New Earth Colony is!

Don't know about this myself, certainly won't need to use it, but on the Alien RPG group I see people are a bit confused about the necessity of this this app. This is not an official FL product as far as I'm aware. Especially cause you need to buy everything there again, unlike the modules in Foundry and Roll20 where you get everything if you own the books. And you already have fan sites that have generators for planets and events... From my understanding, the nexus doesn't offer anything particularly new or useful.

Whatever the case may be, glad there's buzz about the RPG.

Yeah, they didn't do too good a job of describing what a 'Nexus' is.

No the article basically describes it as a tool that has all the RPG data already uploaded so you can quickly generate characters, enemies, locations etc. At least that's how I interpreted it.

Quote from: Slutty Badger on Dec 09, 2023, 09:59:28 AMReceived the physical book yesterday! Sadly none of the errors seem to have been corrected.
Where did you buy it from?

Free League.
Do you happen to have a link handy? Thanks!

Also do we know if anyone other than Free League sells them? Like, say, Amazon?

Quote from: Xenomrph on Dec 07, 2023, 09:18:43 PMI just learned that the plasma rifle from Aliens Colonial Marines got carried forward into the Alien RPG and Aliens Dark Descent.

Does the RPG carry over anything else from A:CM?

Yup. The Charger/Crusher Xenomorph, for one thing. Weapons, creatures and technology from A:CM are all canon; the story is definitely not, however.
That's pretty cool

There're loads of cool references and tidbits - the warden at one of the colonies is named Lohengrin (after the Wagnerian opera of the same name), and one of the 3WE colonies features the HoppĂ­polla lake - whose name is loosely Icelandic for "hopping in puddles", which indicates that Iceland is a 3WE member state.
