Alien RPG Expansion “Building Better Worlds” Announced

Alien RPG Expansion “Building Better Worlds” Announced

, , , 4

In 1979, a crew of seven landed on the planet LV-426 and left with eight on board — a decision that would change the course of cinema forever. To make this occasion, April 26 is known as Alien Day, because of the 4-26 number sequence. And it’s on this day that Free League has chosen to reveal the next expansion to their hit Alien RPG: Building Better Worlds. What’s it about? Here’s what they have to say… All the wonder and danger of the stars is yours—if you can just wipe the grime off your face and dig the dirt out from under your fingernails first.  Airless moons circle swirling gas giants, eager to be transformed into tomorrow’s paradise. Dark ancient mysteries wait to be unearthed beneath a millennium of debris. Searing solar flares boil your flesh and blacken your bones as you harness their power to light a hundred worlds. Long lost mysteries lie entombed in the frozen hearts of icy comets. Unstable tectonic plates shift to drown iridium

Free League’s Alien RPG is now larger than ever with a new expansion. Heart of Darkness is a complete stand-alone adventure, written by sci-fi novelist Andrew E.C. Gaska, that continues the plot threads established in the previous expansions Chariot of the Gods and  Destroyer of Worlds. You and your friends are cast as members of the Weyland-Yutani Corporation who are told they have a new delivery coming. It’s an extraterrestrial life form, one that’s never been studied before. They claim it should be a pretty easy job — just analyze the thing and give them your findings. In return, they’ll reward you with a promotion and even a book deal. This is all assuming nothing goes wrong, but what are the chances of that happening? The Heart Of Darkness box set comes with these things: ●    The main Heart of Darkness scenario book ●    A double-sided map (864x558mm) of the Erebos plasma trawling space station ●    Seven pre-generated characters to choose from ●    Custom cards for secret messages and personal

The Alien Roleplaying Game has grown into one of Free League’s most popular products since its introduction in 2019. It’s successful enough that it’s about to expand beyond its tabletop origins. Free League announced today a partnership with Titan Books, who holds the license to make Alien novels, for a crossover storyline that will affect both the novels and the game. “The ALIEN RPG has established the ‘Frontier War,’ as remote human colonies come under assault by an unknown enemy, dropping a deadly pathogen that unleashes monsters on those worlds,” explains Titan Acquisitions Editor Steve Saffel. “At the same time, in the wake of the Titan novel Alien: Into Charybdis, political tensions on Earth reach a boiling point.” These two events will merge in three upcoming trade paperback novels to be published by Titan: Alien: Colony War by David Barnett, Alien: Inferno’s Fall by Phillipa Ballantine and Clara Carija, and Alien: Enemy of My Enemy by Mary SanGiovanni. As a bonus, each novel will include three unique RPG scenarios that

Free League’s Alien RPG is one of their most successful products, and has received several additional campaigns since its release. The latest expansion, Colonial Marines Operations Manual, was announced last December for a March 2021 release. It hit a delay or two since that point, but it’s finally out now. The Colonial Marines Operations Manual will let you and your friends launch a campaign from the perspective of the military sent to wipe out the Xenomorph menace. You saw the movies, so you know that’s easier said than done. They can cut the power, man! This campaign introduces five new missions, expanded character creation rules and a backstory for the Marines. Keep in mind this is not a standalone — it assumes you already own the core rulebook. You joined the Corps because you wanted to see the stars. You believe in duty and honor. You have made friends for life here—and watched plenty of them get cut down by shrapnel. No one pays you to ask why, just to
