Alien figures for Shadowcore

Ok, I have evil cosmonauts for bad guys, Kang(s) converted to evil green aliens, now I need some guys or "things" that would really work for Shadowcore, in 25-28mm. Lets see some "imaginaaaaaaaaaation" and help Smokey create a derelict ship of death and horror for my good guys to play in. Please. Thanks, Bart

D'oh, I forgot about something. Hey Paul, its your little opus here, who/what were you envisioning lurking round the corners when you developed this great kit? :wink:

The rest of y'all can still help out a lot, so keep 'em coming , er,,,start 'em coming

Since your on a clix kick (say that 3x fast)!

Why not pick up the Aliens[tm] Clix Set for Shadow Core?

That would work. Those guys are kinda space parasites, can show up in any scenario, any style game, eh? Star Trek, Traveller, whatever. GREAT idea! BTW, I lop off those clix bases faster than a (no time for an Old South metaphor now, but you know what I mean

). They have taken over this alien craft, thats now a derelict! Nice Flodski! Keep 'em coming, this has got to be useful for others as well, I think!

Don't forget about the Predators as well. :twisted:

smokeyrone · **Posted:** 07-20-2007, 05:49 PM

Thats right, but also need some homgenous crew. Although I don't really know about Predator spaceship detail, its seems Shadowcore is more "Biological" tech than mechanical tech, so they would be, well different. Theirs gotta be something that looks like it built Shadowcore technology.

I just meant that the Preds can attack the Xeno ship as they did in the comics/books. (the movie DOES NOT EXIST)

smokeyrone · **Posted:** 07-20-2007, 06:49 PM

Wasn't poo pooing your idea, their Kane. Actually, you gave me a good idea. The predators can be a third party, arriving at or near the same time as the good guys.

Do you know of predetor lore? What kinda ship would they use?

Wow, CCotD, Awesome looking stuff. Theirs something I need from Alpha Forge anyway (forgot what it was) so I'll check 'em out.

CCotD · **Posted:** 07-20-2007, 08:44 PM

The Meph's are ultra supernector alien sexy...... my main Star Mogul force...

I am using these guys with my Shadowcore build (when I eventually finish it!):

They are Urban War Koralon from Urban Mammoth.

Cheers,
Wukong

This is turning out to be a cool thread. Those are some wierd ones, which is good!

Boy, CCotD, seems like they want real, mAmigo money at Alpha Forge. They are great looking figures though.

smokeyrone · **Posted:** 07-21-2007, 04:30 AM

Is that your Mayhem build, Wukong? Looking nice. Have you posted pics yet?

Oh, and since I'm getting what I asked for in weird alien types, don't be afraid to add some lore and fluff, kinda describe who they are, what they do, and such, if its not troubling y'all. Nice to see what kinda stuff goes on at you your Shadowcore Prime table.

Am really enjoying this, so lets get more replies than my stupid "Sonic" post

From the Urban Mammoth website:
"Koralon: Agents of the Apocalypse

The Koralon are perhaps the greatest threat that mankind has ever had to face. Driven by a powerful alien intellect, they wield dark and terrifying technologies that are capable of warping conquered worlds and their inhabitants into foul parodies of their former selves. Humanity is faltering under their unending onslaught.

The ‘true’ Koralon are indeed a mighty and terrible foe, with mastery of alien sciences fully the equal of anything yet developed by man. However they are also accompanied by ever swelling numbers of ‘hybrid’ Koralon, mutated creatures from the worlds they have conquered."

Basically, the Koralon use coraline to transform planets to suit them. This stuff also mutates humans into savage creatures fighting for the Koralon. They have warp portals and very sharp spiky bits.

For more details about them, check out Issue 2 of Urban War. It is free in the downloads section of the Urban Mammoth website:

I am also planning to use these guys as evil aliens in 5150. Largely the same background but fitted to the different rules.

Cheers,
Wukong

smokeyrone · **Posted:** 07-21-2007, 12:13 PM

Now thats the fluff! Thanks

I'm playing 5150 wedsnday, first time without Star trek TOS. So, thats pretty easy ti mix your guys in with the "bio" ship. Cool.

CCotD, is Star Mogul a fairly fast game, or one that takes all day? If it lasts for only an hour or two, perhaps we could try it out sometime at the Seattle gaming meets? I've never tried it, but do find the idea curious, and the models very nice.

Sounds good. I don't have spare cash right now so would use existing minis, or make up new ones from the many Street Gang sprues I have still.

If we meet in August and I can borrow the book, it sounds like we'll have a really crazy busy time in September. We should have 4 of us in total I believe (possibly 5), with a variety of games... I can't wait.
