*scared look* Try playing the Aliens RPG before you say nasty things like
that! *grin* The game's supposed to be pretty much as how Alan Dean
Foster thought the aliens were supposed to be... REALLY FRAGGIN HARD TO
KILL! I remember our party going through 23 characters in 5 rounds
(about 30 seconds, think) game time, and about 5 hours real time... and
that was only 18 aliens, no queens, no facehuggers etc. AND we were all
happy gunners...

If that's the way FASA's taking Shadowrun, I think I'll go play with
force ten manta spirit queens instead... safer...
