Anybody near to NA time zones interested in a Discord playtest of an Alien module I’m making? Space-bound, you’re customs agents rather than space truckers.

Also open to hearing what people’s thoughts are as to how the systems might be tweaked for improvement - I much prefer to give players more control over when their character dies, maybe mechanically incentivize death. There’s a storygame called Geiger Counter that’s also meant to simulate the arc of horror film, and one of the things it does is make survivors more resilient as their numbers drop, until you’ve got a Ripley who more or less cannot die in less-than-dramatic fashion. I like that idea for this game, I think.

Roll20 is fine, they've got an integrated charsheet+macros for Alien RPG, it all works pretty well in my experience.

Also note that any panic roll incurred when firing an automatic weapon empties the entire clip

If you don’t fudge dice rolls, Chariot of the Gods can absolutely cinch up in 4 hours’ time.
