Dredd Vs. Aliens? - PIX ADDED

umw

Mongoose
Horrorclix are putting out an AVP line and I thought I'd ask if anyone has any rules for Aliens? I'd love to eat up some Judges and Gangs alike with these freaky little monsters. Any help, as always, is greatly appreciated. :D

EDIT:

Here are some pics of the finished aliens...

Okay, I'll give it a try. If someone wanted to run a Xenomorph gang – presumably within a specific campaign - here’s a starting point (all other rules stand):

A Xenomorph gang starts with a single individual.

They do not collect credits from turf, but - for each turf possessed – may generate one new gang member regardless of whether any were lost in the previous battle. Even if the original member dies, a replacement will be created in time for the next challenge. This means that other gangs will want to eliminate them as quickly as possible.

The only way to destroy a Xenomorph gang is to destroy / remove all their turf. This can be done using the following Challenges: Turf Grab, Demolition!

A Xenomorph gang may only issue the following Challenges: Turf War, Turf Grab, The Hit, Tunnel Fight, Unstable Ground. They may never call in the judges.

STATS

Spd 8" Ag 3+ Res 7 (9) CC 5D Hits 3 WtF 3+ Rep 10

Traits: Resist Arrest, Nerves of Steel, Hit & Run, Stealthy.

Plus the following abilities from mutations in Undercity Gangs in DOTS: Acid Blood, Spider Climb, Keen Senses.

Plus a leaping ability equal to Great Ape (also in DOTS).

Equipment: May not be assigned equipment, but have the following natural built-in equivalents. Claws / Jaws / Tail – equivalent to a Cleaver. Carapace – armour which adds 2 resilience without any loss of speed.

Alien Mind: A Xenomorph can never willingly fail a WtF roll and may never recruit specialists.

Parasitic: Any host(age) taken by a xenomorph gang after a battle may be kept indefinitely to hatch another Xenomorph prior to battle – this xenomorph may retain one trait or ability from the host (This will make Top Dogs and Lieutenant particularly attractive to them). A Hostage Rescue challenge will allow a rival gang to prevent this by killing the hostage themselves. Hostages may be used for no other purpose.

Incidentally, the were called ‘Incubi’ in Dredd vs Aliens.
 
Love the stats on the "Incubi", don't know about using them as a gang though. I was thinking more of a "2 gangs vs. the Aliens" sort of thing. Points cost them like Judges...no idea how many points per Alien. Run the scenario in the Undercity, like the comix. :D I guess they would have to hit a little harder vs. 2 gangs...and they would need some sort of "Acid Explosion" sort of death, again like in the comix. Good ideas, Thanx! :D :D :D
 
Just bought the A.V.P. box set with the Queen alien and have spent a couple of days ripping it appart and molding/casting various bits. Should be a good way to finish off a league...when it's done. :roll: I plan to make it into a 'Regular' model, I hate the look of Clix-s%&t. Also, just re-read Dredd vs. Aliens, I love that art! :D
 
I have full rules for most of the crossover things in Dredd/2000ad including Aliens, Predators, Lobo, Batman, and much more on my GoMC1 site, I will get them all updated with images as soon as possible and repost them to the site.

not seen Dredd vs aliens

You need to track down the Incubus graphic novel from two years ago its excellent, some of the stuff from it made it into Rookies Guide to Atlantis and Black Atlantic.

Yup, its a very good graphic novel. One of the first I bought.

There is a pred vs Dredd Graphic novel i have yet to pick up.
 
Where Aliens Vs. Dredd is super killer thrill power, Pred. Vs. Dredd leaves somthing to be desired. It's not that it sucks, the art and story are both average to good, it just isn't very Dreddy...If you know what I mean. Still you can never have too much Dredd about the house. :D
 
...oh...you guys are talking about graphic NOVELS, I get it now. Never read either of them...never even knew they existed. Any idea who published them?
 
no, we're talking about the same thing.
Graphic meaning picture
Novel meaning book.

Basically adult speak for Picture book, or comic book.
If I meant novel, I would have said novel (not the graphic novel) or book. Which I doubt there is one, I dont really read a lot anyway.

Both Dredd vs Predator and Incubus where co published by Rebellion and Dark Horse. If you live in the states the Dark Horse version is perhaps the easiest to track down as Rebellion is a British company.

Hope this helps,

What about the Dredd/Lobo thing? Psycho Bikers From Hell, or somthing like that. Can I get that in a Graphic Novel (That's a bunch of comix stuck together so's it looks like a grown-ups book.) format...or what? I've never seen anything about it at all, but I'd love to read it. Who published it? Who wrote it? Who drawed it? What is the story...and of course, how bad is that story... :) Thanx for any info...and does anyone make a Lobo fig.?
