running and screaming?
a group not prepared for a xenomorph would get crushed! anyone who doesn't believe that should check the movies again
at least the CRs are 5 minimum...

glad you are all liking the idea..
I have to add something to them about what happens when they fail the Massive Damage save.

Like them spreading a large amount of their acidic blood all over the place?

Pretty much..
They should explode in a burst that has a radius of 2 ft + 6 inches per point that they failed the save by. Ref DC 15 for half (or avoid for those with evasion type abilities).

You wonderfully evil and vicious man... this beauty should get some great scare-factor milage...
I have a small group of players that want an introduction to D20 Modern and I think I've just found my major bad-critter...
*fitting it into a story may be something else though*

I've never read (or even encoutnered) Batman vs Alien... although is sounds quite interesting...
I'll just have to use some old-fashioned imagination...
but thank you for the suggestion, Crothian...

ahh.... it's certainly an interesting concept...
not quite sure how the Dark Knight would go against you average Xenomorph...
maybe I'll just start them off with simple thugs and bring the Alien in later...
that could end up turning into Predator II D20 Modern...
now there's a though... a D20 Modern Predator...
(I hope this thread is getting too badly hijacked... but Predators and Aliens have a link... any player of AvP will vouch for that...
)

FYI: Batman went up against the Predator, too. Talk about a bad week at the office
And no, I haven't read that one either.
