Aliens vs. Robots Complete!

A Conflict of Worlds Game
STARRING
THIN GREENS / THE ROBOTS / ROCKET PEOPLE OF MARS / JUPITER STORMCALLERS
A TABLETOP GAME OF RETRO SPACE COMBAT AND PLANETARY EMPIRE EXPANSION
A galaxy in peace was shattered when two races encountered each
other and created a series of disastrous events. The Thin Greens have a
reputation just for the shape of their ship designs in many primitive
cultures across the galaxy. They are inquisitive and naturally peacefully
yet should they be pushed to the brink of war they will not stop until
the threat is gone.
The Robots could colonise entire planets in less than a year. They are
feared for their lack of fear and the extensive use of Death Rays and
Super Weapons. The Robots primary goal is to expand and update not
processing the many cultures that get in their way and deleting those
who resist or attack them.
These two very different cultures clashed over two very minor races in
the galaxy that were first thought of as no threats. The Rocket People of
Mars are a relatively young race compared to the Robots and Thin
Greens and their lack of space technology shows in their ships and
vessels. Little is known of the race that are known as Jupiter Stormcallers
except they are massive living ships that evolve through eating planets
and ships of any type. Despite their need to feed they have been found
to defend themselves against such threats and evolve in the midst of
ship-to-ship combat.
Now these four races find themselves locked in one massive intergalac-
tic war as well as their own personal vendettas. Smaller races quiver in
fear of the mighty Robots and Thin Greens while other smaller races
rush to the aid of the calling Rocket People as a grand alliance in being
formed.
Who will win the war and restore peace in the galaxy.
.or conquer the galaxy for their own diabolical needs!!!

With Dominion Wars I tried to keep many of the ships true to the star trek profiles
yet keep them balanced which I found to be a monumental task but I truly think that
the original games ships were balanced and worked well against and with each
other. However in the expansion I went a little crazy and produced some very evil
and powerful ships that could wipe out an entire fleet with ease.
In this game; Aliens Vs The Robots I had the freedom to do whatever I wanted and
create ships as powerful or as simple as I wanted and not keep with a canon or tra-
ditional set. I added elements of old B-Movie and sci-fi shows from the retro or
pulp eras.
Shields in Dominion War were too numerous and could make the game last a hell of
a lot longer than it really should have. In this game only the really big ships gain
many shields while some races dont receive shields at all.
Enough of this, lets get on with the game!
3
The game has handy profile section for each ship for all races. This profile contain all
the information needed to use that class of ship in game and to refer to with all
ships of that type on the board. The profile below is perfect of example:
2 3 4 5 6
Ship Name Race Class Speed Hit Points Shields
1
Rocket-60 Rocket People 2 8" 5 2
Weapons
Type Range Attacks Notes
7 Torpedo Tube 12" 1 Does 2 Damage per hit
Missiles 6" 8 -
Abilities
8 Retro-Targetting: Attacks require 5+ to hit
1. Type: generally the name given to a ship type.

2. Race: what Race the type of ship belongs to.
3. Class: denotes the size of ship which is important for game purposes.
4. Speed: how far the ship can move up to, always in Inches.
5. Hit Points: how many hits it can take before being destroyed.
6. Shields: how many attacks it may ignore.
7. Weapons: a list of all the weapons the ship can fire.
8. Abilities: only a handful of ships have traits and these will be clearly stated in the
profile.
All profiles for any race will have the same layout as the one above but the value
and weapons for the different ship types and races will be different. While the profile
tells you everything you need to know about your ship, you need something to rep-
resent the said ship. Enter the Ship Counter:
1. Bow (top half): the front of the ship
5 1 2. Stern (bottom half): the rear of the ship
3. Arrow: what way the ship should be pointing
4. Image: a dorsal view of the ship
2
4
3 5. Shields: monitor how many shield points are left
Most ship counters will have these five requirements de-
pending on their race but the centre image will be different
and the number of shields may vary. Ship sizes arent to scale as all ship counters are
enlarged or decreased so they can fit within the ship counter template size. This
should make it easier to distinguish in game. Naming ships if there are multiple types
can also help to distinguish the different ships also. Just make sure you use pencil!
4
Movement is a straight forward affair as the Speed cell in the units profile shows
how many inches the ship can move. Using the arrow shown on the ship counter
move the counter forward X amount of inches in that direction. Thats the basics of
movement!
This is where movement gets a little trickier. If you move the ship their maximum
speed in the previous turn but dont want to move them this turn; you have to!
Ships require a small amount of time to slow down and stop so if you wish to com-
pletely stop the ship you must move the ship half its maximum speed the next turn.
By the following turn it has come to a complete halt. This can cause problems for
some of the faster ships if they come up against something that is in the way but this
is where Turning comes into play.
All ships may turn between 45 to 90 in either direction. Ships may make a 45 turn
if they haven't moved or have moved up to half their speed. Ships may make a 90
turn if they have moved their full speed, this turn may be made before the ships
moves or after. However should these turns still makes your ship counter touch an
enemy ship counter then this is called a collision. Your ship must roll a 1D6 (6 sided
dice), if the result is a 1-3 your ship is destroyed, and on a 4-6 your ships moves
Firing off weapons from arsenal your ship has is the main point of the game hoping
with enough firepower you will decimate the other players. Shooting has been com-
pressed into a more of an arcade-style of shooting with all weapon arcs concen-
trated to the Bow (front) of the ship counter, so within this 180 firing arc all your
Weapons can be fired from.
All Weapons that hit deal 1 damage unless their Notes says otherwise.
Now on to the easy part that is, well, easy to remember! In order to hit just measure
to see what is in range by seeing how far the weapon can reach. The Range cell in
the ship profile will say and this could be from 6-18 long. If the target is in range
you will now roll to hit the other ship.
Roll a D6 and if the score is 1-3 you miss, but if the score is 4-6 you score a hit! Firing
at a ship on their Stern (bottom) half grants +1 Damage to all of your attack rolls
making it a 1 damage per hit to a 2 Damage. So try and get around them!
This roll can change if the weapon you are currently firing has something written in
their notes part of the weapon section.
5
That is pretty simple to remember but not everything is what it seems if you look on
the profile below:
Weapons
Torpedo Tube 12" 1 Does 2 Damage per hit
Missiles 6" 8 -
Abilities
Notice that after the Range cell you have something called Attacks. The bigger the
ship the more attacks you will have. The number of attacks tells you how many D6
you roll to hit with. In the case above you will have 8 D6 to hit with the Missiles and
1 D6 to hit with a Torpedo Tube. Attacks are important because a single hit will not
suffice to destroy an enemy ship. You must accumulate enough hits to equal or beat
the enemy ships hull points and this is called Damage; this is covered in the next
section.
Splitting Attacks (optional)

As mentioned before; the bigger the ship the more attacks you will have and this is
very true. Any ship may split their attacks between two enemy ships if they so wish
or more if they think they can destroy all of them. Declare you are going to split at-
tacks between X and Y targets dividing the number of attacks equally between the
two then roll to hit as normal. If dividing the attacks creates an unequal amount
then the closer of the two targets receives the extra attacks.
After firing off every weapon your ship has at the enemy target and you score
enough hits to destroy it the enemy, and indeed you, have the options of using
Shields. Shields have a limited amount of shield points that can be used during the
entire game but there are three ways they can be used:
1. Use shield points to ignore damage against your ship.
2. Use shield points to make enemy re-roll hits hit against your ship.
3. Use all shield points to set the ship as disabled not destroyed if hits equal (hits
points + shield points) together.
Shields can be used after all attacks have been made from the class section that was
attacking. Shields dont have to be used as sometimes hits dont equal or beat your
ships hull points value.
If the number of attacks do equal the number of hull points your ship has , even
after using all of your shield points, the ship is declared as Disabled. Disabled ships
are different from destroyed as they gain a Repair save at the very end of the turn.
ALL ships have access to this Repair save if they are disabled. If a ship is disabled it
can not move nor shoot if it hasnt already done so and comes to a complete halt
instead of having to move next turn.
6
It is assumed that engineering crews are frantically trying to get the ship back to full
power and back into the fight so at the end you may make all rolls that goes as fol-
lows: on a 4+ the ship is back to full power and can move and shoot again but has
no shields. On a 1-3 the ship is still being repaired. Disabled ships can still be
attacked as normal if the number of hit beats the targets hull points value. If your
ship is hit and the total amount of hit beats or even doubles the number of hull
points the ship is classed as destroyed.
Ship Classes 1-3 are removed from play if they are destroyed but ship Classes 4 and 5
are counted as crippled. Crippled ships are now essentially space terrain that block
line of sight to a target and can even be a hazard to moving ships. Crippled ships
cant repair like Disabled ships and are counted as destroyed for game purposes.
Squadrons
Squadrons is a special rule for Class 1 ships so that they arent made redundant if
larger classes are taken also it is a way of the smaller ship of ganging up on a larger
target. As stated before this only available to Class 1 ships so ships of a larger class
cant be grouped together as this would make them even more powerful than they
already are.
In the Fleet setup page, shown later, it will have the special rule for Class 1 ships
Squadrons at the side of the entry to remind you that it can be taken. The rules for
squadrons is fairly simple as you group together 2-5 Class 1 ships to form a squad-
ron. All of their attacks are combined but against a single target and cant Split
attacks as shown on the previous page.
As for shields and hull points they remain as they are per ship and are not combined
to form a super squadron! Ship counters must remain within 6 of another ship
counter in the squadron at all times but if one is destroyed and breaks the 6
coherency then place a counter from the squadron to fill the gap.
Any ship counter in the squadron cant collide with another ship from the squadron
when moving. If this happens then just place the ship counter next to supposed
collided ship.
Command Points are the way deciding how big a game is going to be and what
ships you can take. An small skirmish game will be about 10 Command Points with
most players taking a Class 5 ship and battling it out until either one gives in. Other
games will be a mix of smaller ships and having a small scale fleet battle. Larger
games you are looking into the region of 50-100 command.
Class Restriction You and your opponents must decide on the amount of
Class 1 None points you wish to play in multiples of 10 as this will double
Class 2 0-4 the restrictions amount allowing larger games. The table on
Class 3 0-3 the left is how ALL fleets are broken down. Command
Class 4 0-2 Points for each ship will be in a table like this.
Class 5 0-1

Stage 5 is within 6 of enemy ship.
15
In this game most battle will be played in open space and the only terrain features
you may find are crippled ships of class 4s and class 5s floating about blocking ships
in a sight to another ship.
Anyway, find a table of reasonable size; this could be a dining room table, desk,
coffee table, a table at a pub, a proper gaming board, etc, etc. A space of around 2
foot by 2 foot (2 x 2) should suffice for games up to 30 command points. Larger
games will require more space to play on so it is advised to plan ahead for larger
games.
Secondly try and find a black cloth to cover playing area so it looks like you are
fighting in space. You dont have to but it adds that extra special touch to a game so
players feel like they are playing in space.
Thirdly decide on a Command Point limit so both players can setup a fleet, print out
counters or get them ready. Once this is done it is time to deploy your fleets. Each
player places their entire fleet down at once at the same time, making they are both
ready start or if they are still sorting out their fleet. Deploy fleets on opposite sides of
the playing area and they have a deployment zone of around 6 inches (6) to de-
ploy the entire fleet.
Now both players are ready to start the game. The game has turns and in each turn
there are 8 phases that are played out before the turn finishes and the next one
starts. Here is how a turn is broken down:
1. Strategy Phase: players bring on reinforcements, use traits from ships, use race
upgrades
2. Initiative Phase: players roll to see who moves first and shoots first
3. Class 1 Move & Shoot: class 1 ships move in order of initiative then shoot after
movement is done. ANY destroyed ships are removed from play.
8. End Phase: players attempt to repair disabled ships, and unsuccessful repairs to
ships are removed from play.
I should point out ships might be destroyed in the first turn even though they have-
nt move or shot that turn as they are a different class.
16
Reinforcements
Reinforcements are brought in from the side of the playing area you deployed your
fleet on. Some races have an ability that allows them to bring on additional ships in
the midst of a battle while others may choose to keep some ships behind for use
later on.
As long as you have at least one ship on the battlefield or a minimum of three class
one ships then you can keep the rest of your fleet in reserve. To bring them into the
battle you must declare it in the Strategy Phase and choose what ships to bring on.
Then it is a simple matter of deploying them within 6 inches (6) of your side. As they
have just come on they count as having already moved this turn. They may fire if
they can or are in range but for this turn they cant move any more.
The Rocket People must go off the board to refuel on Turn 4 because of their
Limited Fuel race ability and it says they come back as Reinforcements, so the
following turn they are redeployed 6 your side of the table.
For reinforcements there are no dice rolls needed and they can be brought on what
ever turn you so wish just as long as the above requirements are met in the first
turns. If those ships are destroyed on no ship comes on the following turn then you
have lost the battle and the other player wins.
WINNING SPACE BATTLES

Its all about the winning in most games and in this game it is no different. In order
to win the game you must achieve one of the following objectives:
1. Annihilation: you win by destroying or crippling every ship in the enemy fleet.
2. Capture & Hold: you win by disabling all enemy ships for an entire turn.
3. Untouchable: you win if your original fleet is not disabled, destroyed, or crippled
for 4 turns in a row and not in reserve as reinforcements.
Most will just go for Annihilation as it is easier to do and, depending on the size of
the fleet, is easier to do. Disabling ships can be done and in a campaign give you
major benefits but campaigns are covered in the next section. The Untouchable
objective is really difficult and could only be achieved by having a hard-as-nails fleet
or a very unlucky enemy fleet!
If both players agree you could make up your own objectives for winning a game
such as; a stray Rocket People Fuel ship needs to be secured as is carrying experi-
mental chemicals.
You could also attempt to use Dominion War races in this game however their ships
outmatch most races in this game but it could be an objective to capture or destroy
that ship in order to win and both players take it in turns to control said ship.
However as you have already read in the different race pages you would have seen
half a page of Campaign Only upgrades and abilities. These, as you might have
guessed, are for a campaign. With the quicker battles with this game you could very
well play multiple games and link them into a Mini-
Mini-Campaign!
17
Why just play one game when you could have multiple games in a sort of mini-
campaign where both players fight it out to see who wins a planetary system?
Welcome to the Mini-Campaign system that allows players to link games and fleets
to a much grander scale and expands the current races with new abilities, planet
and fleet upgrades.
Below is an example of what a campaign map could look like and has the basic
elements of setting up a planetary system. Just under the image example there are
five descriptions explaining what each element does.
1. Player 1 Home World: This

produces resources, fleets, and
must be defended at all costs.
2. Player 2 Home World: Same
as player 1s home world except it
may be a different race.
3. Travel Lane: These are con-
nectors that link two or planets
together. You can pass in either
direction and is the only way of
travelling between planets.
4. Travel Lane Junction: Similar
to travel lanes except they allow
nearby race fleets to intercept
each other.
5. Neutral Planets: These planets are a primary goal as you gain resources by
conquering them that in turn allows you to create more fleets.
These are the five main features of a campaign map however in addition to these
elements there additional requirements that make up a mini-campaign such as each
players chosen race campaign rules (described on second page of fleet lists), Race
Points (RP), Fleets and Home World Fleet, and Race Upgrades.
The campaign system will be split up into the following sections;
Section 1 - The Races & Travelling Fleets
Section 2 - Conquering Worlds & Race Points
Section 3 - Battles & Repairs.
Section 4 - Buying Upgrades & Fleets
Section 5 - Campaign Turn Phases & Winning
18
A campaign is typically played between two people where each person must then
choose one of the four races from pages 8 to 15. The players may choose the same
race if they so wish or to make the campaign better and different race for each. If
both players want the same race then flip a coin or roll a die each and however wins
is that chosen race.
Once the races are chosen a map is drawn out but for this example lets stick with
the six planet system on the previous page. Each player will choose or even draw an
extra planet to be their Home World.
World The home world is where you build your races
fleets, earn starting race points, and must defend at all costs.
Each race starting abilities and rules as noted on the second page of every race.
Using the Thin Greens as an example taken from page 9 of this rule book the entry
says the following:
Once Peaceful: You may re-roll 1 failed Conquer Planet roll in a campaign turn.
1x Saucer
The top entry of Once Peaceful is a special ability that only the Thin Greens have
and can use when are where it says. The second line is how many race points is
produced by the Thin Greens home world per turn. Then last two entries says if that
race has a home world fleet. If they do it will be Yes or if they dont it will be No. If
they do, and this case they have, it will list how many CP the fleet is what consists of
that fleet. This home world fleet can never leave the home world and is always there
even if were attacked and destroyed a previous campaign turn.
Once both players have chosen what race they are going to be they draw on the
campaign map where their home world is going to be and mark it with either a flag
or their name. After everyone is happy with the map setup each player has 20CP to
spend on creating their starting fleet and this fleet is named First Fleet. Normal fleet
building applies when both players are ready they place an additional counter on
the map to represent this fleet.
Each player in turn can then move that fleet 1 Space along a Travel Lane as stated
on page 18. If the fleet is on a travel lane junction then the player decide which way
to move and further a further space. This is called a Campaign Turn and nothing will
happen much during this time unless the travel lane your fleet had just moved
across moves at a planet! See the next section on what to do next.
19
So both of you have had the first campaign turn and nothing happened except your
fleets are now at a neutral world. Depending what race you are you can conquer
this planet and once conquered can earn you in-game credits known as Race Points.
In order to conquer a planet you declare that you are and roll 1D6 and if you score a
4 or more then you are successful and planet now belongs to you. If you roll a 1,2,
or 3 then you fail to conquer the planet and can not attempt to do so until the next
turn. However there are exceptions to this are race abilities as stated on the previous
page. Using the Thin Greens and The Robots as two examples of this:
The Robots Alpha Fleet goes first this campaign turn and
rolls 1D6 to conquer but to the players dismay only man-
ages to score a 3. This turn the player hasnt conquered the
planet and will try and do so next turn in an attempt gain
more territory and race points.
The Thin Greens 1st Fleet

attempts to do the same
with their fleet and conquer
the planet however in their own roll they score a
pitiful 1 and the other player laughs. However the
Thin Greens have a trick up their sleeve as their Race
Traits for campaigns state they can re-roll any failed
Conquer planet roll once per campaign turn. The
player does so and gets a better score of 5 and now
the planet is now under Thin Green control.
By the third campaign turn both players would have a some Race Points accumu-
lated from their home worlds and planet they conquered the previous turn. Race
Points or RP can be used in numerous ways; to buy race upgrades, create new fleets,
or repair existing ones.
Race Points must be represented by something such as coins, beads, buttons, ring
pulls, bottle tops, stones, etc. Usually there is a pile of such counters alongside any
campaign map that allows the players to take what they need when it is their turn
to collect their sums.
Home Worlds are your starting source to RP and are produced every turn giving a
nice income but it varies depending what your race is. Conquering a planet one
turn wont give you money straight away, unless youre the Jupiter Stormcallers, but
you will have to wait until the start of the next turn to receive the default amount of
1RP. Eventually both players will accumulate enough RP to spend it upgrades and
fleets that is discussed in Section 4.
20
After a few more campaign turns both players will inevitably clash over either a neu-
tral or conquered planet belonging to some one. This will spark a space battle for
control over the planet. All rules for space battles apply as if it were just a one off
match with the following exceptions:
1. At least 1 ship must be on board and fully working in order for the fleet to
fight.
2. A fleet may instead Retreat away from a battle in favour of fighting later and
no space battle takes place but the retreating fleet must be immediately placed
at a nearby friendly planet.
3. In the battle itself; if the enemy fleets ships are destroyed or disabled then the
other player wins and that fleet will move back from where it came from.
Play the space battle as if you were playing a normal one off game and then return
to the campaign map once the game is over. Take note of what ships were
destroyed or disabled during the last game as all ships have a chance to repair them-
selves, even smaller Class 2 and 1s also.
This is called the Repair phase and is done before the Campaign turn is over. Count
how many ships were destroyed or disabled last battle and that is how many dice
you will need. On a roll of 4 or more and the ship returns to full strength and shields
if any. On a roll or 3 or less then the ship is beyond repair and completely destroyed
meaning you will loose that ship from that fleet.
This can be altered should a race have a special ability or upgrade that says other-
wise or the player may wish to spend Race Points on increasing the score of one or
more D6 so that the ships are ready to fight once again.
Remember should you loose any ship from a fleet then that ship can not return to
that fleet for another battle but can be built again should it be put with a newly
bought fleet from a home world or shipyard.
This must be done every time after an engagement takes place whatever race you
are using. If you fail to repair any ship and the fleet is under 50% of the total cost of
the fleet then the fleet is disbanded, removed from the campaign map, and any
surviving ships exchanged for the following; 2CP = 1RP.
The other player has free reign over that planet but must first conquer it as if were a
neutral planet. This planet could have upgrades making it harder to conquer but go-
ing on an earlier example it is not at the present moment in time and the other
player rolls a 6 on their conquer planet roll and successfully takes it over.
Should you find yourself without a fleet, do not fret! Instead you may cash in your
race points on upgrades to strengthen what you have or use it to buy a new fleet.
See the next section for more details.
21
All races have Race Upgrades as listed on the second page of every race and these
will usually come with a name, cost (in RP), and description of what it does. A major-
ity of the races will have an upgrade or two that will affect the entire race once
bought and the effects are constant. Where as sometimes an upgrade may say per
Fleet or per Planet; this means you will have to buy it again for it to take affect on
something else.
Additional fleets can be constructed at your Home World or even conquered plan-
ets should the upgrade be bought for them but most will be bought from the home
world. Normal rules apply when construction a new fleet except you will need a
good sum of RP to do so as 2RP = 1CP. The minimum amount of RP needed to
create a fleet is 10CP but the eventual payoff would be worth it in the end.
The diagram on the left
shows what a game af-
ter a few campaign
turns could look like
with both players now
spending RP on up-
grades for their planets.
The Thin Green player
has decided to lean to-
wards building a ship-
yard on one of their
conquered planets
meaning they have a
chance to outnumber
the enemy fleet.
The Robot player has
decided to go down
the economic route
with the Increase Out-
put upgrade that in-
creases income of RP.
Creating new fleets was mentioned in the second paragraph of this page and it
would be worth while to write down on some paper what fleet contains what ships
so you can remind yourself for each battle you are going to play as well as being
able to strike off ships that failed to repair after their last battle. Also with it being
wrote down you can also add any bought upgrades for them should your race have
access to such things.
22
A typical campaign turn breaks down into the following phases/steps:
1. Income Phase: receive X amount of Race Points per turn from your Home
World and conquered planets.
2. Buy Phase: Create new fleets, buy upgrades, and deploy them using Race
Points.
3. Initiative: Each player roll 1D6 to see who goes first that campaign turn.
4. Movement Phase: Each player moves their fleet(s) to a designated target using
Travel lanes. Should it move in contact with an enemy fleet a space battle is
initiated next phase. Other fleets move or retreat should they be able to.
5. Action Phase: Space Battles are initiated one at a time. Conquer Planet rolls are
made should there be no enemy fleet within the same orbit.
6. Repair Phase: Destroyed ships within a fleet are rolled to see if they are
repaired. If not they are removed from the fleet list.
7. Check Phase: Each players check to see if they have won or not meeting win-
ning conditions set just below.
To win a campaign you must defeat the other player by conquering their home
world. To conquer a home world is just as if you were conquering a neutral or pre-
conquered planet. Make a Conquer Planet roll and is successful you have won the
campaign!
Should the other player have a second Home World then you must conquer both in
order to win however if the other player does loose even just one home world it is a
mighty blow to their economy as the player who conquered it will receive a one
lump sum of 2D6RP and the conquer planet space too!
SO that pretty much covers all the instruction you need to know about setting up a
mini-campaign. Once you have one or two campaigns you shouldnt have to rely on
these pages as much as you would and the system should be simple enough for
most to remember off memory.
Enjoy one and all and happy gaming!

STARRING
COLONIAL FLEET / THE CYLONS
*REQUIRES A COPY OF ALIENS VERSUS THE ROBOTS RULEBOOK TO USE THIS EXPANSIONS*
The galactic war that now spans almost the entire galaxy itself has
found new races on its non-stop rampage. With neither side gaining
advantages over their enemies and alliances breaking on the simplest of
things it is a fearful time to live in.
The Robots conquests spread across solar system after solar system like a
virus infecting a computer. The Thin Greens attempt to hold back the
tide as it has some alliances with the many different fleets of the Rocket
People of Mars. Most are willing allies more than able to help against the
grey tide while others have a more xenophobic view and want nothing
more than to rule the galaxy themselves.
The Jupiter Stormcallers devour planet after planet, growing in size and
strength as dozens of would-be young races eaten alive by the
monstrous space aliens.
Now with all this chaos in the galaxy two more races find themselves
drawn in to the fray as their fleets and civilisations are on the line:
The 12 Colonies of Man (Colonials) & The Cylons.
The Twelve Colonies of Man are located in an unnamed multi-star
system where the government first encountered the Cylons after the
Colonials intervened to protect an alien race known as the Hasari from
them. As a result, the Colonies have been at war with the
alien Cylons for 1,000 years.
Little is known about the origins of the Cylons accept they have a
hierarchy of android intelligence where the Imperious Leader
commands all while its sub-commanders carry out the orders to the
ranks of chrome solders known as Centurions.
Now all six races are in a war on unprecedented scale with all sides
having their own agendas.
2
I have played Aliens V The Robots with a few friends and it seems to be more bal-
anced and fun than Dominion Wars as I have stepped away from already estab-
lished shows. With AvR I was able to allow my creativity go wild and to create new
things not yet seen in games I have made yet.
Now, however, I have taken on myself the task of going back to taking on a well
established genre and making it work for my game. I chose the classic Battlestar
Galactica from 1978 over the re-imagined later series as I felt they could possibly
cross paths in some alternate adventure. I also thought it would be fun to play as
the classic toaster Cylons against the Thin Greens. On top of this some one could
play the Colonial Fleet battling against their distant cousins; the Rocket People of
Mars.
Enough of this chit-chat, lets get on with some BSG gaming!
3
ALL basic rules concerning movement, turning, shooting, and squadrons are exactly
the same and have not been changed for these new races.
Shields - Defence Shields

Colonial Fleet and Cylon ships have no shield manager on their counters as you
would expect on a normal AvR ship counter. This is because rules for Shields on
ships from either of these fleets are very much different to those found in the origi-
nal game.
In the 1978 TV show it is said that Battlestars, Vipers, Raiders, and Basestars have
shielding except rather than soak up damage it deflects the beam itself. While I
could get into depth about the whole thing and go into deep sources online I
would rather simplify it in these rules below.
At the start of every turn, roll either 1D3 or 1D6 to see how many hits can be
deflected that turn.
Once this is done, every time a ship takes a hit it gains an armour save of 6+.
Bigger ships such as Battlestars and Basestars have a save of 5+ but this will be in
their profile.
If all Defence Shields are used then the shields are down and the ship is open to be
destroyed as if it no shields. If you dont use all defence shields that turn you will
loose what you dont have and the roll is made again the following turn.
Class 1 Fuel Limitations

Class 1s in this expansion represent the Fighters seen in the TV show; Colonial
Vipers and Cylon Raiders. While their sizes may be different it was shown that they
could not operate for long periods of time without having to refuel. The rules below
will represent this in game:
Limited
Limited Fighter Fuel: Class 1 fighters have a limited amount of fuel on board. On
turn 3 all fighters must leave the battle in order to refuel. They may come back next
turn as Reserves.
In one off games this is fine as you can take as many as you want in the fleet but in
campaigns it gets a little more complicated:
Colonials in a campaign must have a Class 3-5 ship in a fleet in order for the fleet to
use its Vipers for more than one space battle.
Cylons in a campaign must have either a Class 2 Tanker present in order for them to
continue or any Class 3 and up.
Fighters may seem a waste of time to take but considering they can form into
squadrons of 2-8 then it more than makes up for their flaws.

STARRING
SILENT HUNTERS / SPACE TEMPLARS / UNION OF EXCELLENCE / UNIVERSAL LAW ENFORCERS
*REQUIRES A COPY OF ALIENS VERSUS THE ROBOTS RULEBOOK TO USE THIS EXPANSIONS*
I have played Aliens V The Robots with a few friends and it seems to be more bal-
anced and fun than Dominion Wars as I have stepped away from already estab-
lished shows. With AvR I was able to allow my creativity go wild and to create new
things not yet seen in games I have made yet.
Now, after the success of Ship Pack 1 I return with Ship Pack 2 that is packed full of
four brand new races that are once again spawned from my creativity and imagina-
tion.
The Silent Hunters came about from me playing the game of the same name; Silent
Hunters 3 in which you command a German U-Boar during WW2. I thought would-
nt it be cool if there was a similar race like this. I also wanted a level of stealth in the
game that I just couldnt do with the other races but with the Silent Hunters I believe
I have pulled it off, torpedoes and all!
Space Templars were a previous creation of mine designed from a previous and very
flawed space game I did several years ago. I thought I would rejuvenate them and
bring them to a universe game where anything is possible. The theory behind them
is that they are essentially space knights that do good deeds while attempting to
convert civilisations to their religion.
Union of Excellence and Universal Law Enforcers were originally the same race, or I
was planning to have one huge fleet where the player would be spoilt for choice
but instead I thought to split them into two different races bringing the total num-
ber of races in the game to a staggering 10!
No new rules just fleets this time, so onward as new fleets await your command!
