X-COM TABLETOP TOTALLY HAPPENING. SCROLL PAST THE TEXT WALL FOR DETAILS.


Extraterrestrial Combat Unit Code of Conduct:

1) The Code and its contents are subject to immediate change by suitable administrative personnel if the need arises.

2) Innocent bystanders are not to be harmed by X-Com personnel unless they are a direct hindrance to the completion of the objective given to you by Central Command. “Bending” or breaking of this tenet will result in an unsatisfactory mark on your Progress Reports and/or docking of pay. (Scribbled in pen is “This one’s more of a rough guideline, really. Shit happens.”)

3) The alien presence and its influence on the human race must be eliminated from our world by whatever means necessary, subject to the limitations of tenet 2.

4) Empirical knowledge of the actions of X-Com’s central command facility and its command personnel must be kept restricted to those who are within the employ of X-Com. Denial, deception, and use of force are all authorized if you know of a spy within our ranks.

5) Aliens are creatures of origin on a world or worlds that are not our own. They are to be considered aggressive dangers against the Homo sapiens species of the planet Gaia, or Gaia itself (I.E. Earth, Earthlings), and are to be dealt upon with extreme prejudice. The UN considers any foreign vessel entering Earth’s atmosphere Alien in origin, and hostile. Some groups consider the shooting of any vessel that enters our atmosphere as “Bad PR.” That’s what our Head of Public Relations is for. If an alien craft is spotted by our scanners and destroyed by an Interceptor, before anyone else can see it, did it ever exist? The answer is no, Rookie.

6) All operations must be pre-approved and budgeted through X-Com Central Command (CENTCOM) before any official action is taken.


Have you ever wanted to play in an X-Com tabletop game? Well, LD got his foot out of his ass and is FINALLY willing to run this shit for you. If you are interested, make and send me a seasoned level (make a novice character and spend five advances on him) character in Savage Worlds using the Savage Worlds Deluxe corebook if you have it, or the Savage Worlds Explorer's Edition one if you don't (shame on you). If you'd like to find that corebook, you can do so by googling "savage worlds deluxe.pdf". If you have any questions, contact me on skype (Lawful Dead... The picture is me with a knife. You can't miss it.)


IF I GET ENOUGH PLAYERS, THIS WILL HAPPEN. PLEASE EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST TO ME IF IT EXISTS. CHRIST.
