It was detrimental on my mental health, since the original game I was invested into became disgustingly shit, and it was genuinely upsetting.

>"Time travel". The boss is actually a gauntlet of the most infamous villains of history, and the party perceives themselves as the heroes that defeated them.
>Alternate dimension. The fight is against 2 versions of the same boss, who has to be fought on the material and astral plane simultaneously by the split party.

More or less the same. You can't hope to stand a chance against the likes of Arasaka if you go in loud. Luckily most of their boots on the ground are in reserve watching their neighbors ready for the moment the corpo wars go hot again you can harass them, but more often than not as long as you don't do irreparable damage they can make an honest try to get it back up until they can just write it off as a loss. Depending on what you're filching
Or atleast that's what it was like. I never looked too deeply into what Red setting is like but I assume they don't make it so you're a serious threat to them. Out and out combat is more reserved for like street gangs

Making them ugly is the only based choice. Even better if they are based on some undesireable or lesser known animal. My next game is going to include the ancient race of flying buttock worms who are in war with the Ramisyllis multicaudata folk.

I mean that's the sort of game I'm hoping to run. I'm roughly thinking the first few levels will be more pulp fantasy style hunting bandits lead by ambiguously magical sorcerer types, but as they explore further afield they'll find more genuinely magical shit. I'd love to hear a broad strokes overview of your game. Did you start gonzo or begin fairly grounded and work your way up to the martian stargate?

Hypothetically, let's say you're running an open-table game for a bunch of strangers. A few groups go to location POI and discover stuff and clear some stuff. Later, a different group with players who have never before been to location POI head there too.

Do you as the GM tell the new group what previous groups have done/achieved/located?

>>96458459

No, but I just update the state of the location when the first group runs it so the second group will enter the "aftermath" of the first group.

i.e. If the first group enters the goblin lair, kills all the goblins, piles all the bodies up and takes all the loot, then leaves, the second group will just find a lootless cave with nothing but a pile of dead goblins in it.

If they want to know who did it, why, and what they looted they'll have to figure it out based on what was left, not because they got an infodump at the front door.

Meanwhile, if it's been a week or so it's pretty likely something that likes dead goblin has moved in, a month later all the corpses will be picked clean and something will be hungry, and the cycle continues.

>Aiming for it to look metallic green on some spots and just straight chrome on others
Could end up looking very bland, since you'd have roughly the same brightness on everything. Contrasting brightnesses help a colour scheme, more than contrasting colours. A few bits that are brighter to pop could do such a scheme good.

I broke the staff on my ventrilokar and super glue doesnt seem to be working. The piece itself looks too small to pin and I'm thinking of using green stuff but rather not since it will look weird. Any advice on different glue/techniques to use?

>>96459465
you could try using tamiya acetone acetate (plastic cement/airbrush cleaner)
dont need a lot, clean off the glue and use like a brush stroke or two on each end start melting the plastic, set it up in a way you can leave it for a minute to let it set

>>96459135
I'll probably do a bit of highlighting underneath the layer of contrast, ultimately I want a metallic green to go with the silver metal

I don't know or care about the lore as established, comics or movies or otherwise, I like the idea that a single alien will become a queen morph in the absence of a viable broodmother to produce new eggs, generally the biggest and the strongest of the group, while the others either die contesting the claim or become simple drones.

Writer for the Alien RPG (Andrew Gaska) doesn't like the crossover.

>>96458850
I think that first appeared explicitly in the Cold Forge novel, but it's also a pretty obvious extrapolation from what we see in Resurrection, Prometheus, and Covenant (and re-visited in Romulus) and goes back at least as far as the mid-ninties material like Alien3 (dog / ox burster different to human version), the Technical Manual (WY scientists speculating that the alien is human shaped because it reads the hosts hox genes or something to adapt to its environment), various comics with variant aliens, and the Kenner toy range. Even the original film had a deleted scene where the alien transforms humans into eggs, suggesting some method of altering their biology. It's also implausible that you could fit an animal as big as a chestburster inside someone's thorax without seriously altering their anatomy or leaving them virtually incapacitated.

>>96458998
>But the powers that be will absolutely fuck you over for a percentage. Crew expendable.
I don't even think it's that bad. In Alien, WY is fucking ruthless, but nobody expects them to be that bad. Right up until they see the evidence, they assume that the company wouldn't throw their lives away. It is obviously meant to be a shocking revalation that the crew are expendable. That isn't the attitude of someone living in a cyberpunk-style world. At worst it's equivalent to modern-day where things are pretty bad for a lot of people, but most normies can still tell themselves that society is more-or-less OK. I think it's more likely the intent that for it to be basically 1970-80s America where society as a whole was pretty much OK, with a few fucked-up things going on but well-concealed from the public.
Aliens doesn't seem any worse. Some bureaucrats are dismissive of what sounds like a crazy story, one influential guy is a psychopath, and he can pull some strings to manipulate events. But the marines are basically good people, and everyone seems to expect society to function OK.
In 3 you have a bit of a step towards dystopia. Then the comics (and, to a lesser extent, the novels) go absolutely crazy with shit like the berserker program (40k dreadnaughts with psycho prisoners inside, who get slowly killed by the suit) and the royal jelly (drug which turns people into insane killing machines extracted from aliens, which the military actually wants). Romulus has WY working its employees to death like some kind of third-world operation, and I think that is too far outside of most normal people's experience to really empathise with. Obviously big corporations now can have some employees who are basically fine and some who are pretty much slaves or whose lives are considered worth little, so it isn't unrealistic to mix them up. But it feels more realist to me if 'crew expendable' is a big deal.
