Re: XP/Learning Rolls and what-not from the last mission...

I'm going for Gun Combat, as I spent more time shooting than observing.

Re: M2T2

Billy Lone Bear did not care for the dreams he had in hypersleep. They were not like ordinary dreams, flickering across the viewscreen of his mind, but elongated and distorted things that took strange shape and lingered too long. If he dreamed of his new comrades he didn't recognize them. Hypersleep...

Re: Easy Eights: Weapons and Equipment Breakdown

Whatever the case with the pistol stopping-power question, Billy will take a VP70. I don't expect it'll get scads of use, but at least it's there.

Re: Easy Eights: Weapons and Equipment Breakdown

Actually wasn't it the VP70 that Vasquez was emptying into the bug's head in the ventilation shaft in Aliens? Looked like it penetrated there, though it was up close and personal. I was thinking the same thing. Though the pistol looked more like a .45 if I recall correctly. Either way, pistol make ...

Re: Mission Two; Turn 1

Lone Bear listened to everything that was said and read everything there was to read. He was not a talker at the best of times, and he was a little overwhelmed by the information he was taking in. Unlike some in the Strike Team, Lone Bear was not an old hand dealing with aliens, especially not these...

[AVP] Finished the Alien campaign

It may have been my imagination, but the Alien campaign seemed the shortest of the three campaigns in Aliens vs. Predator . Maybe I was just having too much fun. And playing the Alien, Six, was fun... most of the time. Probably the most frustrating thing about playing Six was also the most interesti...

Re: Invictus...Mission 1 ends; Mission 2 begining...

I didn't have much to do in my little cameo from before, but I remain interested.

Re: [AVP] Finished the Predator campaign

I was never able to get enough control over it to use it effectively. I managed to kill one combat android with it, but it wasn't pretty.

[AVP] Finished the Predator campaign

Well, this was something of a disappointment. After the fairly lengthy human campaign I expected something of similar duration, but as those of you who've played through the game know, that's not the case. It seemed like things were just getting started when it was all over. I do think that in terms...

Re: M1T8

Casey nodded and gestured her squad to comply. After making sure that Betts' body was properly seen to, Lone Bear piled into the APC. Like most it smelled like a moist gym sock, with the added odors of flame and chemical fire retardant on top. He found a place in one of the jump seats and waited fo...

I posted a few things to get some conversation going. Now it's everyone else's turn to pitch in.

Converting avatars?

I read elsewhere that there's been a conscious decision to make all the avatars for the game conform to a certain style, which is fine with me. But to whom do I send my desired avatar for conversion?

[AVP] Finished the human campaign

Well, I just finished off the human campaign for Aliens vs. Predator and I'm not sure exactly how I feel about it. I enjoyed myself, but I felt like there was something missing from the experience. On the plus side, the human campaign has atmosphere to spare. Creeping along in the dark with an under...
