A bit pressed for time ATM.

I made a quick and dirty fix to make it possible for You to upload the roster now Dugan through a PHP script - Check Your PM's for the adress and password.

I'd say the Primary Charateristics are most important they are:


Strength (used to calculate Combat Load),
Intelligence (used to calculate Combat Actions),
Will (used to calculate Knockout Value),
Health (Used to see how quickly you can recover from wounds),
Agility (Used for determining success rate in agility skill checks).

Theres two name boxes.

The first one is your forum name, which will be MI_trooper.

Then for the other box just right what you want your character to be called first name first. i.e John Smith.


Yeah 10 is about a good average number. You may want to have a few low stats in order to boost a few though.

Yeah, you play DnD, cause CHA is your dump stat. You definitely are NOT going to be talking to anyone soldier, and we expect a lot of jargon with swearing in your language, hooah?

Alrighty boys! Just let me know when I can actually be a part of the game. Dying of boredom. Heh, and just so you guys know, whoever plays DnD. There is a D20 version of Aliens floating around called "Aliens: Game over" You can search for it on google and download the whole book for free on adobe. Just fyi. And please whoever the top honcho is e-mail me or pm me or whatever. Hell, text me for godsake. I wanna play me some Colonial Marines. Pvt. Derran Masterson wants to put his M41a pulse rifle to use. : ) On another note. Aliens: Colonial Marines the new video game is supposed to be released soon, and no it has not been cancelled.

We will let You know.

Also putting Your cell number out might not be a good idea, we have been attacked by hackers before and people can screw with you if you do that.
