Aliens the Boardgame
ALIENS, the board game, now a Flash game.
Author Comments:
This is an adaptation of the ALIENS board game made by Leading Edge Games into Flash.
It is a hard game, but there are only 3 missions. Enjoy the difficulty.
Good luck.

TIPS:
Flamer kills don't have acid spray. Use them on aliens up close, but when the alien is on a marine, it's too late for flamers. Use melee (fist icon) to try to throw the alien off.
Pistols are almost useless. These marines should just move or help melee an alien off one of his buddies.
Grenades kill aliens 1 square away from the blast square, but injure marines up to 6 squares away. Plus, there is a chance the grenade will miss the target square by one, so plan carefully if you want to use grenades.
NOTE: It was designed for 1024x786, so I'm sorry if it's hard to make out some details in 800x600.
