This week's newsletter from Free League Publishing revealed that those of us who've pre-ordered the Alien RPG (and already got our sizeable 'quickstart' preview PDF) should be receiving a Beta PDF of the full game soon.
Of this unexpected bonus, the newsletter says:
"Behind the scenes, we're working very hard on the full rulebook, and we expect to be able to share a Beta PDF of whole thing with you in a few weeks.I know a lot of people have been keen to see how the game handles space travel, where it sits between "hand-waving" and "ultra-crunchy".
The full game contains lots of material beyond the Cinematic Starter Kit, mostly focused on fleshing out the Alien universe for Campaign play.
One really meaty chapter of the full rulebook deals with life in space in 2183 AD, and a big part of that chapter is focused on something every self-respecting sci-fi RPG needs – spaceships.
The rulebook will include comprehensive rules for starships, how to modify and upgrade them – and how to fight fast and brutal battles with them."
