Gale Force Nine | Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps: Get Away From Her, You BxXxh! Expansion | Board Game | 1-6 Players | Ages 14+ | 60 to 120 Minute Playing Time

I bought this alongside the base game and I had the intention of putting the parts all together from the start. My negatives would be probably the value for the cost of the box. It only comes with five models. I felt that the ultimate badasses expansion should have been included in this box. As before, the pieces need to be assembled so it cannot be easily played out of the box. However, the quality of the models are better this time around and although painting the models isn’t essential - it is really great to see the Queen and power loader put together and finished. They are very sturdy pieces and significantly less fragile than the regular aliens. I do find the human faces lacking detail and makes them tricky to paint and ink etc but this won’t be an issue for most people who either won’t paint at all or are much better at painting than me.The rest of the components are really good. The new tiles are brilliantly detailed and sturdy. There are more missions than just the two story levels and it really helps the game be more thematic. There are alternate mission cards for extra replay and rules for driving the APC. I personally think that this is an essential expansion for the main game and personally I feel that the main game (and story) is incomplete without this.

Aliens ADITC base game has all you need to play but adding the expansions increases playability and scenarios. One best bit is that you can play this solo too.

Looks awesome :)

Brought 2 packs for necromunda 95. I have been collecting tabletop wargames on and off for 30 years and probably put together and painted close to 1000 miniatures in that time. So I'm experienced and have everything I need too handTools needed.Sprue clippers/craft knifePolystyrene cementSmall filesThe overall good pointsSurprisingly heavy, thick cast plasticNice clear detailsCasting lines are not too badVery accurate to the filmThe overall bad pointsSome of them could do with a bit detail/looks a bit plain in partsThe break individual downThe cratesGoodNice and fitting the thematic feelOnly 1 part clip and there ready to paint/useBadcasing lines are running through the ridges so hard to cleanCould do with handles each side, they look too big and heavy to pick up without themThe computersGoodVery fitting to the 80s/90s sci fi future feel/close to the filmVery clear keyboardEasy to put together just 2 parts that fit together very nicelyBadcould really do with more interesting details very plain overallThe eggsGoodReally nice details and lots of them3 well fitting parts dead easy to put togetherThe base only fits property 1 way round so quite idiot proofBadNoneThe gunsGoodLook great. Spot on for the filmBadVery fragile legsVery Poorly positioned sprue connection to the legs, makes it awkward to clip and could easily brake if not careful enough, not a problem for me with my experience but could easily be a big problem for other people. I actually knocked of 1 star just for this it's that badClip top 2 before the bottom 2 to minimise riskThis it's such a jump in difficulty the rest is very begginer friendly but the guns are very much intermediateThe face huggersGoodgreat detail spot on for the filmBadWould be very easy to break the tail with rough handling/poor storageThe connection hole needs to be made deeper to fit properly (very common but worth noting)OverallGreat little kit at a really good price. A little disappointing with the lack of detail on the computers but really good everywhere else, but location of the sprue on the legs of the guns are just bad should have been on the side not the feet made a much easier/cleaner cutI would definitely recommend overall

Brilliant and brutal game. Captures the movie really well. Plenty of strategy and tension. I’d recommend the addons too. Assembly of the alien tails can be a bit tricky. The miniatures are quite small and you’ll need a good model glue, patience and a steady hand to assemble them. I’d also recommend a modelling kit; sharp pliers, files etc to remove them from their spurs and clean them up a bit. Highly recommended if aliens, miniatures or sci-fi survival horror is your thing.

I've had this for 48 hours and have played it twice, it's a cracking game. The instructions aren't 100% complete/clear but with a little time online it's possible to work it all out and it is well worth the effort. For an Aliens fan in particular it's a blast. Looks to have tonnes of replayability with different ways of playing and difficulty levels. Only available second hand these days as far as I can tell and not cheap but glad I have it.

Great game, good quality models. I’m a GF9 fan and kinda knew what to expect (I also read up on what this was) I already have a modelling station with scalpel/file/super glue etc etc, so the set up didn’t bother me - I actually quite enjoyed it. However I can see why people who aren’t ready for that or weren’t expecting it might not be too happy. (Although frankly they should have read up about the game before buying)Models fit together well but again - this is a job for a modelling knife not to prise out with your fingers - then you probably will damage the connections.All in all - good game and a fine addition to the GF9 family of intricate board games but be warned - serious assembly required.

The game is well made and the game components are robust and attractive. I liked the fact that a number of expansions can be purchased for the core game. Overall this game is one of the best made from a movie and I would recommend it to anyone who likes Science Fiction.
