Re: [OT] Alien Figures

Kelvin,

Nice website, pretty, without making you want to give up painting
forever 
(Hi Agis). I like the rules, I think for me they need a bit of a tweak,
I 
was thinking that the Aliens should operate as individuals rather than
in a 
squad, maybe having a terror effect (if an 8 ft exosceletal alien with
acid 
for blood doesn't terrify you what the hell does?), sionce these guys
are 
illuded to under the "Terror effects" rules (SGII, pg 43). And perhaps 
should CA like PA troopers, who get doubled assault score, making them
very 
capable of spoiling your day in close assault, even on their own (a roll
of 
a 5 or more makes them capable of beating all but Elite troops in CA).
This 
is my big question about the CA rules, that a single PA trooper can take
on 
entire squads of ordinary troopers in CA and beat them all half of the
time. 
Maybe make the alien D8 doubled, in CA?

Many thanks

Richard
