Alien RPG: Colonial Marines - Operations Manual (Hardcover)
Product number:
FLFALE015
Manufacturer:
Free League Publishing
Armor-piercing rounds sizzle through raw flesh as plasma beams sear swollen retinas. Acrid smoke chokes down your throat before you realize what's burning is you. Chemical attacks melt your armor, simmer your eyeballs, and fuse your helmet to your skull, while bioweapons turn your insides out and pulp you into a quivering mound of black jelly.
Welcome to war on the razor edge of space, marine - where nukes are yesterday's news, pulse rounds are cheap and a human life is only worth its weight in stock options. It's a living hell - but none of that's as bad as the flashes of gnashing metal teeth that terrorize you every time you try to close your eyes - like some monster just split your head open and crawled inside your dreams.
Sometimes you've gotta wonder what the hell it's all for. But no one pays you to ask why, only to follow orders. You're just a grunt - no offense. So lock and load your pulse rifle, marine - you've got a job to do. Protect and serve the citizens of the Outer Rim colonies - no matter what the cost.
Colonial Marines - Operations Manual is a complete campaign module for the award-winning official Alien RPG, giving you all the tools you need to run a full open-world campaign as the iconic Colonial Marines.
This massive 352-page book includes:
• History & Organization - the inside story of the illustrious USCMC.
• Creating Marines - expanded character creation rules for grunts of all kinds.
• Weapons & Vehicles - an extensive chapter with new gear, gloriously illustrated.
• The Frontier War - the framework and backstory for a Colonial Marines campaign.
• Factions on the Frontier - the power that be and their dark agendas.
• Marine Missions - six thrilling missions for your marines, playable in any order.
• The Endgame - the showdown against a deadly enemy, finally revealed.
A copy of the Core Rulebook is necessary to use the contents of this book.

Great Look and Feel to this book
Great hardback book. The pages are black and have a real pop to them. Have not played the Alien RPG yet, but in terms of look and feel, this book is great.

Aliens Colonial Marines Manual for the Aliens RPG
Haven't had a lot of time to go through the book but it is full of lots of information. The only thing I wished it had was pictures/drawings of colonial Marine uniforms to use as a painting guide.

It's worth it
For this price it definitely is. The art is beautiful and gives you great representations of what is described, it is useful and defines the military, story, other factions, guns, npcs, etc. For this price you shouldn't hesitate to buy it. Zero buyers remorse here.

Go Marines
If you liked the Aliens movie you'll love this book for the RPG. Loads of new classes for Marines to play each with individual gear loadouts. This is a really good addition to the game.

Love this book!
Haven’t gotten a chance to play yet, but I love the flexibility of the system as well as the treasure trove of alien universe lore.

Very much worth it.
Very well made product, high quality materials. Excellent fleshing out of the game world. The seven mission campaign itself is worth the price of admission.

Amazing Sourcebook
If you plan on having your PCs be Marines or interacting with military elements, get this book. It has everything from laser reflecting sunglasses to Conestoga class Frigates, all to boot with some top notch scenarios
