I am going to run this at some cons this year. I was going to do this but you saved me at lot of work. Thank you. You had some really good ideas and perspective on this module. Also what I do is making the spacesuits they have being old and crusty so they are leaking so they will run out of air quicker. Or that the ship are hit by micro meteriorites and that it punctures the suits so it's more or less impossible to detect or fix. Having them running out of air adds alot of stress and strain. Also the horror of breathing contaminated air. They are then Also more pressured to take the vaccine.
Thanks! That's a great point with the space suits, let the walls shrink around the players and give them decisions to make ie find new suits, air scrubbers, vaccine.
@@GMRUNSGAMEWe are thinking much alike. And what if several/all of them rum out of air and they only find 1 new suit/Airsupply. That will garner more conflict or ill will amongst the players or it will at least generate a moral dilemma. Who gets the suit. Or that they find several suits and when they put them on they learn that inside the suit there are spore sacs. Do you have the unknown hostile droid among the crew or do you leave it out? I am not sure how I will have people doing secret things . Having the players sending me notes or text messages can easily become destracting and hard to manage. It tends also to get people to meta because they can see that something iffy is going on.
I would have a couple of space suit / EEV complications and use them as and when you feel it needs it. To one shot COTG you have to be selective and keep the pace, that being said I can think of a few examples when this would help with the pace. I have always run with Lucas (the synthetic) included. Having run this a few times at conventions the folded paper method of communication worked well - just make sure you don't have a tell :)
Your video is fantastically structured and very helpful. I hope you’ll continue to do this with the other Alien RPG scenarios - because of that I have just subscribed to your channel 😊. I would also love to see you doing the same with Call of Cthulhu Horror on the Orient Express or anything from that RPG. Anyway, very well done. Thanks a lot for your work on this.
Thanks so much for the feedback, I do plan on creating more Aliens content including scenario help as well as other RPG content. I appreciate you subscribing :-)
Hello, thank you for the video. I suscribe to your channel, i hope you can make more videos, like destroyer of worlds, or the mini storys like "infernos's fall :)
Hi thanks for subscribing! I will be talking about the novel tie in scenarios in the near future and as well as destroyer and heart of darkness 😊 I hope you enjoy them when they’re published 👍🏻
This is so helpful dude. Good looks. Im gonna use this as a rough outline for what I do when I run this for the first time next month
Awesome I'm glad it's gonna help :-) let me know how the game goes!
Thanks for this, helped me put it together in my head ahead of running
I’m glad it helped, I have some more Alien content coming soon 😊

I needed this video two weeks ago😂 but I am curious if I did anything right during my experience ❤😅
Every game and group is different, I’m sure yours was awesome 🙌

Nice helpful video. Helped me prop for running my first game. Subbed. :)
Just finished Act I. Players immediately clocked Ava as a threat and opened fire. So that's her out...
RIP Ava... still plenty available for the group to discover, has T-Minus 10 gone off yet? That always amps up my sessions

Wonderful video. Horrible sound
Thanks for the comment, I am working on improving the sound in the near future. Got lots more Alien videos coming 😊👍🏻
It really isn't that bad
