Galeforce Nine looks to be releasing an ALIENS themed miniatures board game later this year. Looks super neat, too. Tabletop pulse rifles, smartguns and a bunch of slimy assholes to use them against. Can’t have too much of that.
It looks to be set up for 2 players in Co-operative game play, possibly playing as a commanders for 2 squads of marines vs them wily xenomorph bugs. …or maybe you both play as a hive full of Aliens, defending your nest from invading marines – a great expansion concept for a later date, please, GF9.
The miniatures on display at this year’s Toy Fair were in a prototype form but there’s still plenty of time before this item becomes available. It’s expected to arrive sometime in September, 2018; so keep your drooling under control until then. Retail price looks to be already set for US$50. A reasonable price tag for what looks to be a quality product from Galeforce Nine.
Anyway, the miniatures look great and we have a fine Gallery of photos courtesy of Scott Morrissey. Thanks for these!
