But I'm doing it anyway.

My friends and I like playing card games. Not poofy things like Pokemon, but card games that have more mature undertones. Example: Vampire, The Eternal Struggle (www.white-wolf.com
or Initial D (in the middle of a marketing dispute).

So, I have decided to make an Alien vs Predator CCG. Not based on the movie, but an algmation of the Alien and Predator series. I know about legal issues, it is not being produced commercially. I am going to make a few decks, and play with my friends.

However, I would greatly appreciate any help with rules and card pictures, whatnot. Plese, PM me if you would like a copy of the rules, to hopefully proofread and notify me of any mistakes. Or any changes you would like to see.

The rules have not been put into a proper Word/Notpad file yet, but they will be.

Thank you,
Andrew.

I am a vehement Magic player, and as such, I am well versed in CCG ruels (every take a look at the Oracle on WOTC web site? Holy....!). I would be happy to assist.

The story so far...

2276 AD—Earth (Terra) has a big problem on it’s hands. An alien invasion by extraterrestrial beings has caused Earth to be decimated, in all but a few places.

The ALIENS are fast breeding, fast moving, adaptable creatures. Having no natural predators, they were able to feat upon humans. Humans foolish enough to fire upon them were sprayed with acid blood. Human defences quickly crumbled under the might of the Hive.

However, 15 years after the initial invasion, a new species has come into the mix. The PREDATORS, also extraterrestrial beings, have come to Earth to hunt the Aliens. Or, if they decide, humans.

Aliens have wheeled around from killing humans to defend from the Predators. These two monsters can often be seen duelling, in bloody battles across the face of the Earth.

A new Earth troop, the HAMC, or Human Alliance Marine Corps, have stockpiled weapons from the last great war. Using these pulse rifles, they fight both Alien and Predator.

Whoever wins shall claim Earth as their own. Will it be the Alien, Predators, or HAMC?

You decide.


How's that for an opening story?
