Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps! is a co‑operative survival board game in which you and your team of specialist Colonial Marines will gear up with serious firepower and head into Hadley’s Hope to find survivors and answers. But you’re not alone. To survive, you’ll need to work together, keep your cool, and stay frosty to fight off relentless Xenomorph ambushes and get out of there alive.
Players can play up to six different missions, taking them into different areas from the Hadley’s Hope terraforming facility to the deep, dark recesses of an xenomorph nest. Aliens also offers an exciting campaign mode to play four of the missions linked together, so players will need to fight relentless xenomorph attacks and keep each other alive all the way to the end of the campaign. The remaining two missions are purely about survival, it’s kill or be killed. The players are dropped into the game with nothing more than a pistol. They will need to scavenge weapons and gear while hordes of Xenomorph aliens are trying to get at them. How long can you survive against the odds?

I liked playing another person's game a lot. I would never own it because I am not willing to assemble the miniatures nor paint them and they are too hard to tell apart without the paint. That said, the game is a lot of fun. The cards as the timer was a really interesting idea, with cards discarded cards recycling, so that your draw deck does not run out and forces you to lose. I don't think you should be able to pick which marine is attacked by the aliens when multiple ones are equidistant: it should be random, which would spice up the difficulty, and be more realistic. But game play was a lot of fun and campaign mode was an added bonus.

Typical Dungeon Crawler with some cool gameplay ideas when it comes to the endurance deck. Fun to play but defiantly quite easy to win and not much content as far as scenarios goes. Also keeping up with all grunts is a little bit of an upkeep which could have been solved differently for a smoother experience.

Shoulda done my research but the minis are a pain. Don't care if I have to paint them or not (since I won't) but the assembly is annoying old school crap. This is horrible. Maybe some day I'll get around to assembling them and then I'll know how the game plays but for now, it's a crappy game because I can't play it because of the crappy mini assembly thing.
