Aliens Board Game

Aliens Board Game is a war-game by the now-defunct company Leading Edge Games based on the events in the 1986 film Aliens. It was first published in 1989 and reprinted in 2001. Players assume the roles of the Marines from the film and must fight through the five encounters with the aliens shown in the film.

The five scenarios are as follows: 'The Reactor', 'The Drop ship', 'Operations', 'Rescue Newt' and 'Ripley vs. the Alien Queen'. Each of these represents a different part of the film, with the outcome of each scenario affects the next.

The Reactor: This represents the sequence in which the marines are ambushed by the aliens inside the Thermonuclear Reactor. The marines are under equipped, due to the loss of their Pulse Rifles. Their objective is to reach the Armored Personnel Carrier, which is waiting outside. Marines used in this mission's standard set-up are Apone, Hicks, Vasquez, Drake, Wierzbowski, Dietrich, Hudson, Crowe and Frost.

The Drop ship: This represents the segment of the film where the two drop ship pilots are killed, causing the drop ship to crash. If the marines lose this scenario, they continue as normal; if they win, they may elect to leave immediately, thus winning; or they may continue with extra ammunition and access to the marines Ferro and Spunkmeyer. Standard set-up for this scenario uses the marines Ferro and Spunkmeyer.

Your mission in this turn based strategy game is to kill all aliens. Your first job is to select your team order. Your second task is to place the team in the deployment area marked by a red box. The red arrow on the deployment screen will give you your mission objective. Game play alternates between the Aliens moving and the Marines moving. You can command your marines to move or shot. Red boxes will appear on any squares the may move to. Red targets will appear on aliens that are within range of the marines. Clicking on the marine itself will spend an action doing nothing. Use your mouse to control the game. You can check in-game tutorial for more details. It is a hard game, but there are only three missions. Enjoy the difficulty.

The alien board game will give you almost a real time alien experience. Go and kill the aliens and save our mother earth from invasion. Good Luck!
