Re: What are your ideas for New Aliens in H.U/A.U?
I thought the Phantom R.C.C. from Phase World would make a cool addition to the Aliens Unlimited roster.
An idea I've yet to flesh out was a race of Magma aliens who communicate thermally. They'd be a very tough character for a P.C. to play though.

I would like to see more aliens that are not simply humanoids with animal heads like most of the ones in the first Aliens Unlimited book.

How about instead of more Aliens, we got more details on the existing races. Palladium books has a serious problem with redundancy department of redundancy issues. Fill in the wheres and the whys.

Agreed and very much seconded. At this point we have enough aliens imo. Too many to use in one gaming lifetime. Time for more background information on setting, cultures etc. Mind you PB is not the only company. Even Paizo has redundancy issues. Whats the difference really between a ocean, lake, or river giant really.
If it's stupid and it works. It's not stupid
Palladium can't be given a free pass for criticism because people have a lot of emotion invested in it.
Pathfinder is good. It is not the second coming of D&D.

When I step out of line the mods do their jobs. I don't benefit from some sort of special protection.

In great space opera stories we see, it's the focus on the few aliens and how they are like us and how they are different from us that set up the story. Those elements are the drama, and the blowing stuff up parts are just the things that happen to connect the dramatic parts together.

Unless its a Michael Bay movie, then the blowing stuff up part is the whole of the story...
Oh, wait...
