PLAYING AS THE ALIEN HIVEYou can play Aliens with one person playing as theAlien Hive. This requires some additional setup andadds an additional Hivemind step at the start of theAliens Phase.Use the Alien Phase and Willpower Actions card as areference.HIVE HAZARD CARDSThe Hive Hazard cards are added to the EnduranceDeck or placed on Characters during the game as aresult of cards in the Hivemind Deck. Hive Hazard cardsare Hazard cards for all purposes.WILLPOWERSET UPWhen setting up the game, the Hive player placesthe Hivemind Deck, the Hive Hazard cards, and theWillpower Dial in the Hive Card Organizer. Theyseparate out the Nature cards from the HivemindDeck. They select one at random as the starting HiveNature, then shuffle the rest back into the HivemindDeck. Set the Willpower Dial to 4.The Hive Player uses the Willpower Dial tokeep track of how much Willpower theyhave available. The Hive player starts thegame with four Willpower, and can neverhave more then ten Willpower at any time. Once theyreach ten Willpower, they cannot gain any moreWillpower until they spend some.HIVE KNOWLEDGEAs the Hive player you may always look at face-downBlips in play, and the topmost Motion Tracker card ofthe Motion Tracker Deck.CONTROLLING THE HIVEWhenever there is a tie for where an Alien model orBlip will be placed or move, or who they will attack,the Hive player choses where they will be placed ormove, or who they will attack.THE ALIEN PHASE: HIVEMIND STEPIncluding a Hive player adds another step at theStart of the Alien Phase, the Hivemind Step, in whichthe Hive Player does the following.A.

MOVING LARGE MODELSLarge models like the Power Loader and the AlienQueen occupy a square of four spaces on theboard. These spaces cannot contain anotherlarge model, and cannot be separated by walls orBarricaded doors.For example, the Power Loader can’t movethrough the narrow gap in front of it, so mustgo the long way around the path on the left.To move a large model, move it one space at atime (including diagonally) such that the model stilloccupies four legal spaces at each point in its move.If the large model ends its movement with a smallerfriendly model under it, the player moves the friendlymodels one space in any direction to make roomfor the large model. If it is impossible to move all ofthe friendly models out of the way, the large modelcannot move into that space. If the Alien Queen ismoving and there is no Hive player, the player withthe highest rank moves the Alien models out of theway for it.ALIEN QUEENACTIVATING THE ALIEN QUEENATTACKING THE ALIEN QUEENIn the 1. Activate Aliens Step of the Alien Phase, theAlien Queen moves and acts like any other Alien model.The Alien Queen ignores Characters that she cannotreach (due to narrow doors or passages, or otherobstacles) when determining where she will move.Characters can take Attack Actions against the AlienQueen in the same way they would against a normalAlien. However, each time the Alien Queen would beKilled by an attack or counterattack, she gains aDamage token instead.When attacking, the Alien Queen can attackCharacters within two spaces of its model, but willchoose the closest Character if there is a choice.Characters attacked by the Alien Queen add 3 totheir Defense rolls.When playing a Campaign Mission, the Alien Queendoes not Activate if she starts the Alien Phase withsix or more Damage tokens. Instead, she removes allDamage tokens. The Alien Queen can only be Killed ina Campaign Mission by throwing her out of the airlock.LARGE MODELThe Alien Queen is a Large Model and uses the rulesabove when moving.ALIEN QUEEN MOTIONTRACKER CARDSAlways add the ten Alien Queen Motion Trackercards to the Motion Tracker Deck in games that usethe Alien Queen.When playing a Bug Hunt Mission, the Alien Queen isMortally Wounded when she has 15 or more Damagetokens. If the Alien Queen is Mortally Wounded at thestart of an Alien Phase, the Alien Queen and all Alienmodels and Blip tokens go into a frenzy moving anadditional two spaces. At the end of that Alien Phase,the Alien Queen is Killed and removed from the game(even if she removes Damage tokens using Willpower).ALIEN QUEEN MOTION TRACKERCARDS: These cards are only usedwith the Alien Queen.1 QUEENDAMAGE85 QUEENDAMAGE
P-5000 POWER LOADERMOUNTING A POWER LOADERAny Character may mount an empty Power Loaderby taking an Interact Action next to an emptyPower Loader model. If you do this, return any nonBackup Weapon attached to that Character to yourhand, place the Power Loader Stats overlay on theCharacter’s card, and remove the Character’s modelfrom the game. That Character now counts thePower Loader as their model.The Character’s Speed, Defense and Melee statsare replaced by those on the Power Loader StatsOverlay. You cannot equip a Character mounted inthe Power Loader with a non-Backup weapon.POWER LOADER IN COMBATYou can take an Attack Action with the PowerLoader against any Alien model in a space next to it.When attacking an Alien model, roll the Marine die. Ifyou rolled under your Aim Dial’s number, you scoreda hit. If you attacked the Alien Queen, you immediatelymove the Alien Queen two spaces in any direction,then move the Power Loader to stay adjacent to it.If you attacked any other Alien model, remove theAlien model from play along with any Alien tokensunder it. If you rolled a 2 or less you may immediatelymake another attack using the Power Loader.After making an attack with the Power Loader decreaseyour Aim Dial by two instead of the normal one.ATTACKING THE POWER LOADERAlien models attack a Character in the Power Loaderlike any other Character. If a Character in the PowerLoader fails a defense roll, instead of being knockeddown, they are pushed back two spaces directlyaway from the attacking model (or as far as possible,if less). If they roll a 10 or more, the Character is killed.Remove the Power Loader Stats overlay from theCharacter. The Power Loader is now empty.RIPLEY — CLASS 2 LICENSEDISMOUNTINGTo dismount from the Power Loader, a Charactermust take an Interact Action. If you do this, removethe Power Loader Stats overlay from the Character’scard and place the Character’s model anywherewithin a single space of the Power Loader. ThePower Loader is now empty and can be mounted bya different Character.When Ripley or Enraged Ripley is in the PowerLoader, she gains -1 to her defense rolls.9
M577 ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIERThe M577 Armored Personnel Carrier (APC forshort) gives the Marines mobile firepower andprotected transport.THE M577 APCThe APC occupies a 3x7 rectangle of spaces. Thesecannot contain impassable terrain or a large model,and cannot be separated by walls.The M557 APC can only be entered or exitedthrough its door. All other edges of the APC arewalls which as usual cannot be moved, attacked,or interacted through. If any Character entered orexited the APC during the Marine Phase, the APCdoor is open during the Alien Phase. Otherwise itis closed. Aliens can attempt to open the APC doorfor the rest of the Alien Phase in the same way theywould remove a Barricade marker.If the APC moves, all models and tokens in the APCmove with it.CREW POSITIONSThere are five specific crew positions in the APC: DRIVER FRONT TURRETGUNNER SCANNER REAR TURRETGUNNER DOOR GUNNERCharacters in the other spacescan repair the vehicle.10DRIVERA Character in the Driver’sspace may take an InteractAction and perform a Tech Test.If they pass, the APC can moveup to five spaces, otherwise itcan only move three spaces.The speed of the APC is reduced by one for eachDamage token it has. The APC can move forward orbackwards (including diagonally, but not sideways).Move the APC one space at a time such that it stilloccupies legal spaces at each point in its move.The APC does not have to stop its movementwhen it enters a space adjacent to an Alien model(other than the Alien Queen). If it moves into aspace containing an Alien model, the Alien Modelimmediately resolves an Attack against the APC, andthen is Killed. If it was a swarm, all of the Aliens in theSwarm are Killed.If the APC model ends its movement with a Characterunder it, the player moves the Character one spacein any direction to make room for the APC. If it is notpossible to move all of the Characters out of theway, the APC cannot move into that space.If the APC moves through a Barricaded door, removethe Barricade.
TURRET GUNNERSA Character in the Front or RearTurret Gunner’s space maytake an Attack Action with theirturret. Exhaust three cards androll two Marine dice, discardingthe highest result. A roll of 7 orless will kill an Alien model andany tokens under it. The targetnumber to kill an Alien model isreduced by one for each Damagetoken it has.Turret weapons can only targetspaces outside the APC. The front turret draws itsLine of Sight from the Front Turret Gunner space,ignoring parts of the APC in front of or to the rightof that space. The rear turret draws its Line of Sightfrom the Rear Turret Gunner space, ignoring thewhole APC.DOOR GUNNERA Character in the Door Gunner’sspace may take an Attack Actionwith their weapon against Aliensoutside the APC. If they do this,the APC door is open during theAlien Phase. Characters in otherspaces can only take Attack Actions against Aliensinside the APC.SCANNERA Character in the Scanner’sspace may take an InteractAction and perform a Tech test.If they pass, you may look at anyone Blip token.REPAIRA Character in a Repair space may take an InteractAction and perform a Tech test to repair the APC. Ifthey pass, remove one Damage token from the APC.If you rolled afor the Tech test, remove twoDamage tokens instead.ALIEN MOVEMENTAlien, Alien Queen models, and Blips treat the M577APC as a Character when moving and attacking. So,if the APC is closer than any other Character, theywill move towards the APC, and Blips that move intoline of sight of the APC are revealed.ALIEN ATTACKSAlien models attack the M577 APCas if it were a Character. The APChas a Defense of 5 and a Meleeof 2. If the APC fails a defense roll,instead of being killed or knockeddown, it gains a Damage token.APC DAMAGETOKEN11
NEW CHARACTERS AND FIRETEAMSBISHOP THE SYNTHETICFIRETEAMSIf the Alien model cannot move into a space nextto any Character, it will move towards the nearestnon-Synthetic Character. It will only move towards aSynthetic Character if they are the only Character itcan move towards.Any remaining Characters are not in the gameand are held in reserve for later missions. You canchange which Characters are in reserve at the startof a new mission.Synthetic Characters cannotplaced onhave Hazard cardsthem. When they draw or reveala Hazard cardthat would beplaced on them, Recycle the cardinstead. If a Hivemind player canonly place a Hazard cardon aSynthetic Character, they Discardthe card instead.NEWTSynthetics like Bishop are androids or ‘artificialpersons’, so do not attract the attention of Alienmodels. If an Alien model can move into a space nextto a non-Synthetic Character to attack them, it will. Ifit cannot do that, but can move into a space next toa Synthetic Character and attack them, it will.ENRAGED RIPLEYYou may replace the RipleyCharacter with the EnragedRipley Character at the startof any Mission. You may nothave both Ripley and EnragedRipley in the same Fireteam.At the start of a mission, the players choose up tosix Characters to field in their Fireteam (or eightCharacters for the new bigger Bug Hunt Missionsin this expansion). The players then each choosewhich Characters they want to play, flipping themfrom their Grunt side to their Hero side.Newt must be fielded in Campaign Missions, unlessshe has been captured or killed, or the missionstates otherwise. Newt is fielded in addition to thesix characters you select for the mission.Newt is not used in Bug Hunt Missions.CARRYING NEWTIf Newt is in a space next to Enraged Ripley, she maytake an Interact Action to pick up Newt. When Newtis picked up, place her model on Enraged Ripley’sCharacter card. Enraged Ripley may set Newt down atany time during her Activation by placing Newt’s modelin a space next to herself. If Enraged Ripley is Killed orKnocked Down, she must immediately set Newt down.In a turn in which she is carried, Newt may onlyperform Rest Actions during her Activation. Whileshe is being carried, Newt cannot be attacked byAlien models.CREDITSGAME DESIGNANDREW HAUGHTASSISTANT GAME DESIGNPHIL YATESGRAPHIC DESIGNVICTOR PESCHPRODUCERSPETER SIMUNOVICHJOHN-PAUL BRISIGOTTIPROJECT MANAGEMENTGORDON DAVIDSONCHRIS TOWNLEYSCULPTINGGINO CRUZ, ROY GAB,ROB MACFARLANEPROOFREADERSEVAN ALLEN, CASEY DAVIES,DAVID HAUGHT, WAYNE TURNERPLAYTESTERSSAM COGGAN, DAVE GABRIEL,ASHLEIGH HEELAM, ASHLEY HEELAM,MAREN KATELAAN, PETER KATELAAN,LEONARD LANDREY, STUART LAPWOOD,STUART MITCHELL, PHIL PETRY, ASHLEY RYAN,DECLAN SALMON, JOHN SHACKLE, CHRIS TOWNLEY,DEAN WEBB, JOSHUA WELLINGTONGame Design Gale Force Nine 2020.
