My 5e PHB spine has held up, but the MM cracked fairly quick.

Definitely one of the better books in 3rd edition.

I liked the movie overall, and enjoyed a lot of the curve balls: video journal, Aunt May is hot, Iron Man as mentor, Vulture as Liz's dad.. But I got turned off by the high tech Spidey suit. Maybe I'm too old school, but a Spidey drone, really? I remember when he just had a camera set to auto...

Thank you! I have watched Aliens a million times, but I guess I never paid attention to the Facehugger skitter at the end credits. Another reason to watch the movie!

So you can make the goliath barbarian of your dreams with a greataxe, that's why. d12 hit die, d12 damage die

super cool! Thanks for sharing

Man, the art was just lovely...

You could go the Star Wars route with infinite types of races. The race builder guide in the back of Pathfinder's Advanced Race Guide is great for that. Give the players a point-buy limit and let them go wild.

This so much! Thank you. And so, whatever happened to the Sulaco? Was it attacked/infested while everyone was in stasis? So Ripley was already asleep in a pod on the lifeboat? I can dig that last one (since the pod room at the end of Aliens is not like the one in the beginning), but just too...

They don't really explain where the eggs came from. There is no queen, but maybe they were in stasis somewhere on the ship. In the first movie, the derelict ship was full of eggs, so they obviously had that bio-technology. Perhaps they get it from David somehow? Weird.

Well it IS in the title of the film. There is an attempt to build upon the mythos of the xenos. They show a little more about the mysterious creator race. There is some good reponses. I agree that protocols should have been more strict. I am tired of horror movies where the protagonists make...

Aliens #1 Original Alien #2 Alien Covenant #3 I think I liked Covenant better over all than the original, but the original was much more, uh "original."

Yeah, it feels like the story line is coalescing into an epic (evil) android trilogy.

Okay, just watched it and must say Alien Covenant is awesome. Much better than Prometheus. There are still a few duh moments (don't go into that obviously dangerous alien spaceship!), but it kept my attention and the characters were tolerable. The story was pretty good too.

Aw man! Hudson was my favorite. So many good one-liners.

I think it's called Alien: Covenant or something. The first two films of the franchise are the best. It took a dive after that. AVP? Please. (I did enjoy the Predator and Predators films however). With Ridley Scott at the helm of Prometheus, I was so looking forward to it. And so disappointed...

WotC sure seems to be casting nets at the grognards. This edition's scope seems all about foregoing innovation for nostalgia. They should let the OSR pick it up and let D&D progress into the new. Of course if they opened up Greyhawk for 3rd party content that would be pretty cool. Have to agree...

Slowly filling the arena with piranha infested water is great for adding tension! A few gelatinous cubes around the arena can make movement interesting.

Oh yeah. I'm on board for the Core Rules and the pawns at least.

More fantasy settings is cool, but of course we have lots of those already. Any support for the 5e system from 3rd parties is always great. Especially since WotC is only releasing a few books a year. Even rehashes of d20 settings like Scarred Lands is good news. I already own some of the older...
