Alien War

 THEY'RE OUT THERE--and they're coming here. What do they want? Do you have what it takes to stop them? We'll find out. 

This is a tabletop RPG where you play soldiers and their civilian advisors working to understand an enigmatic alien threat and figure out how to thwart it. As the GM, you'll usher the PCs into missions generated on the fly and use how they deal with them to give shape to the extraterrestrial menace. The vibe is Kriegsspiel meets XCOM, with a fast-paced rules set that cycles through missions in the field and what happens when you return to base.

The 32-page download includes rules for character creation, procedures for creating missions and choosing equipment, carrying out operations in the Alien Activity Zone (AAZ), assessing mission success and intelligence gains, role-playing scenes between missions, character advancement, and special abilities for consultants, commandos, peacekeepers, scientists, and sniper characters.
