Me being a bit sad, worked out the seating plan of the APC in Aliens. 

This is it:

And the rule book agrees as they have the driver and passenger capacity listed as 15.

More info can be found here:

(Note the weapon sytems have been altered from the old rules to now co-inside with the new rules/ weapon systems).


So you could fit three squads and a commander and driver and still have a spare seat. But I guess it makes more sense if we take two APC's out.

Assume we have drivers for the APCs? Isn't that done by the androids?

Yeah it can be but I'm not sure if we have any androids with us as we are using the Marine Expedition force's APC's. Nick will have to rule on if we have or not.

No androids for this one gents.

What skill would be used for driving?

It has it's own skill and so does vehicle weapons.

None of us currently have the skills but Nick might be generous and rule that some of the platoon are certified drivers, or we're be losing our no claims bonus pretty soon.

I hope that he doesn't, so we can keep this interesting.

Oh, and also; SHOTGUN! 

To hell with shotgun, I'll take the twin plasma cannons!

I had to select amongst the myriad of skills in Aliens Adventure Game - I decided that all Marines can drive the APC. If rolls are needed I will make them towards the basic attributes.

Jocke: No shotgun for You.
