Hoss Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 The title pretty much says it all. I thought of this earlier tonight while playing the alpha, and whilst having a particular good ground mission, the line from Aliens popped in my head, Hudson talking about his team of ultimate badasses. And this led to my thought, of a complete Colonial Marine Corps mod. It would be fairly involved (I assume, I know precisely zip about the process) as it would involve replacing at minimum all the soldier and weapon graphics. Other options could include dropship graphics, APC replacing the Hunter, etc. It was just an idea floating around that I figured I would throw out there if anyone has the inclination.

thothkins Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I think the mention of redoing all the soldier and weapon graphics sent a number of people running away screaming. Even the alien hive didn't make the cut (although you just never know later in the process). Here's the last little thread on it (and a link to a very cool flash game to let you relive those USCMC moments) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Cool. I've actually been hunting for the old Leading Edge game for a few years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Let us know how you get on with the Flash game. It really takes out a lot of the book keeping of the board game. Mainly the first reactions are "bloody hell! I'm being slaughtered!" I know mine was. The Aliens RPG, also from Leading Edge also provides excellent background material for the Aliens Universe, before others got their paws into it. I noticed recently that they go fairly cheaply on E00bay, for less than £10 in fact. Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrashMan Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 If it were 3D, replacing graphics would have been MUCH easier... I wish you luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
