Aliens: Bishop will be published in hardcover, e-book, and audio book on December 12 via Titan Books. The 496-page novel is written by T.R. Napper (36 Streets, Neon Leviathan).
It serves as a direct sequel to Aliens and Alien 3 in which Weyland-Yutani, Colonial Marines, and Bishop’s creator all pursue the android for the Xenomorph data contained in his brain.
Massively damaged in Aliens and Alien3, the synthetic Bishop asked to be shut down forever. His creator, Michael Bishop, has other plans. He seeks the Xenomorph knowledge stored in the android’s mind, and brings Bishop back to life—but for what reason? No longer an employee of the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, Michael tells his creation that he seeks to advance medical research for the benefit of humanity. Yet where does he get the resources needed to advance his work. With whom do his new allegiances lie? Bishop is pursued by Colonial Marines Captain Marcel Apone, commander of the Il Conde and younger brother of Master Sergeant Alexander Apone, one of the casualties of the doomed mission to LV-426. Also on his trail are the “Dog Catchers,” commandos employed by Weyland-Yutani. Who else might benefit from Bishop’s intimate knowledge of the deadliest creatures in the galaxy?
Pre-order Aliens: Bishop.

FINALLY!! Saint Ripleys Detail Breakdown! I still have a few more images to go through of Ripley, but I finally had some time to get to my details! Pic 1 shows the original sketch, you can see I had a lot more xenomorph garbage on the costume. I realized it made it overwhelming & messy. I do still have the back spines I made, but I don't think I'll be implementing them on this costume. Maybe another?? 2: The Sacred Heart. I wanted the Face Hugger to sit where the Sacred Heart sits in such iconography, the legs being the 'rays". 3: An obvious detail: the Power Loader aesthetic used for the border on the robe, replacing the typical gold 4: The Cincture has been replaced with the M41-A Pulse Rifle ammo bandolier 5: Hidden detail: the tassle at the end of the cincture has a hidden Weyland Yutani logo on it! 6: I incorporated both the tracker watch & of course, her shoes! 7: Finally: the halo is a Xenomorph Queen tail, gilded in gold. The main body of the dress was a gorgeous silk I chose to match her blue jumpsuit, of course with the Nostromo patches on arm/chest! I put so much thought and love into this costume, I wanted it to be a celebration of one of the characters that shaped me, growing up. ~

"Jaune Gets A Gun AU - Day 3" Colonial Marines - Various...
Inspired by @howlingday's RU-JA-GUN-CON
The girls were still feeling a little off, like they had forgotten something big. Something related to the goofy knight that had captured all their hearts. But for the life of them all they couldn't put their finger on it, plus there was a sudden distrustful jealousy of Cheerleaders that they couldn't explain. So they just chose to go along with Jaune's suggestion to get some lunch.
As they were moving past the various booths on their way to the Food Court, they passed a very militaristic booth. It instantly reminded Ruby of the Mobile Infantry Recruiting Booth from Day One of the convention. She shivered, knowing that through her inaction she had allowed Jaune to enlist.
????: Jaune? Jaune is that you?
Jaune: Huh? Did someone call my name? That voice. It couldn't be?
????: It is.
Jaune: (Turns to his right) Aunt Ripley? When did you get back?
Tumblr media
The girls all turned to their right, following Jaune's lead.
Ripley: Recently, and my, my you have gotten so BIG since the last time I saw you! Come give your Auntie a hug!
The girls watched as Jaune hugged the older woman, a bright smile on his face. When they ended the embrace, Jaune stepped back to stand with the girls.
Ripley: Now, who are these young ladies?
Jaune: Some friends from Beacon. Ruby Rose, team leader of team RWBY.
Ruby: Hi.
Jaune: Pyrrha Nikos, my partner and temamate on JNPR.
Pyrrha: Hello.
Jaune: This is Emerald Sustrai, she's from Haven and a member of team CMEN.
Emerald nods.
Jaune: and a pair of old friends from Ansel. You should remember Tiny Tina.
Ripley: I do. Good to see you again, Tina, and if my memory serves me correctly, you should be Jinx.
Jinx/Tiny Tina: Ms Ripley.
Ripley: So what brings you to this event, Jaune?
Jaune: My friends have talked me into getting a ranged option to round out my arsenal. Right now I'm only using Crocea Mors, so they think I should look at getting a gun.
Ripley: Not a bad idea. So, have you thought about what you want to get?
Jaune: A few people, I know, suggest a shotgun, but I'm still open to other ideas.
Ripley: Well, maybe I can help you. Come with me.
Ripley led the sextet towards the booth she had been at. As they closed the distance, they saw two armoured men, standing behind the display counter.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jaune: They look a little serious.
Ripley: Hicks and Hudson are good guys, and don't let their appearances fool you (whispers to Jaune) They're big softies.
The girls spread out to look at the display case as Jaune was introduced to his Aunt Ripley's companions.
Ruby: They do have a pretty good selection.
Pyrrha: They all look pretty sturdy and robust.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tiny Tina: What's this one? Here at the end.
Hudson: That's a M134 Motion Tracker.
Jinx: Motion tracker?
Hudson: Provides a 180 degree sensing hemisphere in the direction the operator is facing, that indicates the presence of anything moving, with distance from the operator. Great for watching for unseen or hidden threats.
Ruby: Is that a M41A with under barrel U1 grenade launcher?
Hicks: (Moving from Ripley and Jaune as they continue to talk.) You have a good eye. I have a feeling you know the specs too.
Pyrrha: She does. What about that big one? Looks like a machine gun.
Hudson: The M56 Smartgun.
Tiny Tina: Smartgun? How is it smart?
Hicks: Mounted on a self stabilizing arm that auto-tracks targets with an infrared target tracking system.
Jinx: So it would be good for someone with, like, NO firearms experience?
Hudson: It would. Takes the guess work out of hitting a target.
Tiny Tina: And this one here, next to the rifle?
Hicks: M240 Incinerator Unit. (Noticing the looks of the girls) It's a flamethrower.
Ruby/Pyrrha: Nope. Too brutal.
Hudson: When you're taking on Xenos... anything goes girlies.
Tiny Tina/Jinx: Xenos?
Hicks: Screen on the side of the booth, next to the armour display.
Girls: What the hell are those?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hicks: Xenomorphs, or Aliens. Steel like exoskeletons and molecular acid for blood.
The girls all grew wide-eyed. Those things made the grimm look like stuffed animals. Ruby and Pyrrha grew even more concerned, knowing that the last time Jaune visited a booth about a military style unit, he ended up enlisting.
Jaune: So, what do you think? That shotgun looks promising.
Hicks: Solid and true. War Era M37 pump, modified with a short barrel, capable of slam-firing.
Jaune: The pistol looks nice too, but I think I'd go with the shotgun.
Hicks: It's my personal favourite. Like to keep it nearby for ... "close encounters"
Ripley: So, see anything that tickles your fancy, Jaune?
Jaune: I think I'll get the shotgun.
Hudson: Okay, just some paperwork to do and...
Pyrrha/Ruby: NO! (Each girl taking a side and hooking Jaune under his arm pits, and before Jaune could struggle, Tiny Tina and Jinx moved in and lifted him by his legs.)
Hicks/Hudson: (Shouting as they watched a potential customer being hauled off) What are you doing?
Ripley: Put him DOWN NOW!
Hudson: I don't get it? It's only forms to get the proper licences. That's an over reaction, if I ever saw one.
Emerald: I'm sorry, but Jaune already enlisted with the Mobile Infantry. Thank you for your time.
Ripley: HE WHAT NOW?!? JAUNE GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE! YOUR MOTHER IS SO GOING TO HEAR ABOUT THIS YOUNG MAN!
Jaune: (in the distance) I'm sorry?
Hicks: United Federation, those blood suckers always looking for fresh meat for the grinder.
Hudson: Game Over, man. Game Over.
Ripley: (Whipping about to face the two marines) Get hold of Gorman. Tell him personal favour. Find a way to get Jaune out of the that enlistment!
(So I'm giving up on the Bolding of all the speakers. If this you find it is better with the bolding, DM or comment, and I'll edit this, and continue the practice in further posts. Hope you enjoyed.)

Hot damn, what a fantastic book. This is Colonial Marines Operations Manual (2021) for Free League’s Alien RPG. Prior to this, published Alien adventures were designed for the cinematic side of the game — pre-generated characters, secret agendas, fairly linear plots — but this is the first in a series of open world campaign supplements (the plan, I believe, is release a book like this for every primary occupation in the core rulebook).
The player portion of the book is everything you wanted to know about the Colonial Marines for play. There’s stuff on unit structure, specialized roles (with slight mechanical tweaks), heaps of equipment. There’s a good deal of lore and rumors, too, which is an appetizer for the GM section, containing as it does a truckload of lore, details on swaths of the galaxy, the lowdown on the war that just broke out (between the United Americas and the Union of Progressive Peoples) and secrets galore. This section lays out the an open ended military-focused campaign, complete with a ship that serves as home base, NPCs and framing for particular sorts of missions. The final section supplement the open campaign with seven connected scenarios that build off the events of the seemingly unconnected cinematic scenarios and pushes the overall Alien RPG meta forward with some potentially big paradigm shifts.
The thing about this book, and the Alien line in general, that bowls me over is the lore. There is a lot of BAD material in the Alien franchise (Prometheus? Prometheus.). There is also some great stuff that is obscure (lots of comic book stories) or was unproduced (like Gibson’s Alien 3 script). Somehow Andrew Gaska has pulled those thread of varying quality into a tapestry that works as a compelling universe for roleplay. Initially, with the cinematic scenarios, there were big guardrails. Colonial Marines lowers them substantially and beyond them I can see the expanse of thrilling galaxy. More please.
