ALIEN: The Role-Playing Game - Colonial Marines Operations Manual (EN Edition)

Volleys of armour-piercing ammunition from your M41A pulse rifle rend flesh and bone, while jets of plasma sear your irritated retinas. Acrid smoke takes your breath away before you realise it's you who's on fire. Toxic gases liquefy your armour, boil your eyeballs and fuse your helmet to your skull, while living bioweapons rip out your guts and leave you a twitching heap of blood and guts.

Welcome to war at the far edge of known space, Marine - where firing nuclear missiles is commonplace, 10mm calibre pulse ammunition is cheap and a human life is only worth its weight in stock options. Life here is hell, but none of it is as bad as the flash of metallic fangs you see clearly in front of you every time you close your eyes; as if some cursed monster had split your head straight open and crept into your dreams.

But no more of this philosophy crap! You are paid to follow orders, not to ask questions. You're a frontline pig (no offense intended), so: Load and lock pulse rifle, Marine - you have a job to do. Protect the citizens of the Outer Rim colonies, no matter the cost.
