Hi all, new to this thread... I have the chance to get an Alien LE... The price is a JJPPotC CE... any thoughts if this is a good trade?

How many Aliens made it to the public? Any idea on the number of LEs in that count?

Finally, I've seen some gameplay vids on YouTube, the game looks great from what I can tell, but the seasoned player will know more... how good is it? Are the call-outs repetitive? Is it easy to get to the final wizard mode? Any gripes about the game?

Thanks a lot for any tips!!

Quoted from Indypin:

I never get tried of it and blasting aliens and hitting those shots really gets the juices going.

So the sounds are not repetitive? I love the deep 'trombone' like droning sounds, could hear those all day! Did the licence allow actual film call-outs? Do you get to hear Sigourney Weaver say 'Get away from her, you bitch!'? I don't know why, but that quote always gets me!

Quoted from Indypin:

129 pins in your collections! Will you adopt me???

I'd have to ask the wife, but I think she'd say 'no' I'd be surprised if 1/4 of them work when I get round to setting them up though!

Quoted from Averell:

My custom sound files incl. a lot of call-outs from Ripley and much more.

And are those something that can be relatively easily begged from you

Quoted from Averell:

I wrote a short description how to do that. I can share the files... send me your email address.

If/when I get the game, I'll definitely get back in touch!

Quoted from Indypin:

It has movie quotes from some of the actors, but unfortunately Ripleys quotes are not used in the game. Still, Dave Thiel did an awesome job on the sound and it really puts you right in the middle of the alien universe.

Sounds good, literally from what you say

So how are the rules on this game? Is it deep? Challenging? Strategic? Risk/reward elements? Easy/hard/impossible to get to final wizard?

Thanks!
