SETI Has Detected A Signal
A Horrorclix Scenario by Hellb0y
:
Background- 
  Deep in the rainforests of South America lies an ancient temple. Living  in the surrounding jungle is a tribe of natives who have worshipped  strange deities and remained hidden from the world for centuries ? if  not millennia. A team of research scientists and archaeologists are  trying to unravel the mystery of the temple and the strange beliefs of  the locals when something strange starts to happen?.

  SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) detects a signal seemingly originating from the moon and tracks it's destination to the deep Amazonian rain forest, they contact the government who mobilise a  response unit (BPRD?) to investigate. In fact this is a Predator  Training temple and the time for the hunt has begun. The signal is from  a predator ship which activates the queen, the scientists at the site  have already been infected when the other teams arrive.
 
Objectives-  
Alien Team - To destroy the rescue team and escape into the Jungle.
Rescue Team - To rescue Victims and destroy Aliens.
Search & Destroy (S&D) Team - To take skulls (i.e. kill everything !),  but stopping the Aliens escape is priority.
 
Army Size-  
  Aliens - 300pts - 3 actions (plus special - see below)
  Alien Queen - 300pts - 1 action per turn
  Rescue team - 300pts (BPRD and/or Guardians) - 3 actions (plus special - see below)
  S&D team - 300pts Predators or something suitably vicious - 3 actions (plus special - see below)
  Ideally each team should have a unique.
 
Time-  
120 minutes  
 
Map-  
Combination of Alien Queen and Alien Pyramid.
Place the pyramid map first.  Then lay the AQ map on top so that only columns from I onwards are visible.
Place the Moving wall counters on the spaces showing on the Pyramid map.
 
Setup-  
  There are 3 setup areas :-
  1. Alien queen and her "soldiers" in the Containment area.
  2. Rescue team in the opposite deployment zone, which is effectively the
  Middle of the battlefield.
  3. Search and Destroy team start in the purple deployment zone in the
  Pyramid map.
  This means that the SD team have got to get past the hindering terrain
  and moving walls to get to the rescue team.
 
Special Scenario Rules-  
There are no Plot twists used in this scenario due to the way that victims work.

"Loose it here you're in a world of hurt"-
Represents the punishing environment they are fighting in. If any monster scores a critical miss, in addition to the damage they must be given up to 2 action tokens. In other words they'll be unable to do anything next turn and count as vulnerable. Monsters who have a power preventing them from becoming vulnerable will take damage but may ignore this additional rule.

"There's something movin' here ? and it ain't us!"-
This represents the rescuers only seeing Victims as "dots" on a motion tracker.
Victims are placed face down as normal, but they do not move. The rescue team are aware that there is something there, but not what it is (Alien/s anyone?). When a rescuer lands on a victim they roll a die as does the Alien player.
  ·  Rescuer scores higher - The Victim can be rescued as normal.
  ·  Alien Scores higher - The victim is replaced with an Alien Drone minion token and makes an attack against the would be rescuer. If the Rescuer is Blooded they can make a free retaliatory attack. The usual rules for minions apply. When a minion is killed they are recycled.

Aliens will ignore all victims (As they are all carrying a chestburster).

"I want this to go smooth and by the numbers ?"-
As there are no plot twists any monster which has the ability to add additional plot twist(s) will be considered the team leader and will instead affect the number of actions that team gets.  If you have more than one monster with this ability you must choose which one will be designated leader. If the leader is killed the extra actions are lost and the slayer receives double VP's for the kill.
The alien queen only gains this ability when freed from the harness.

"The demon who makes trophies of man"-
S&D team (Predators) who make any kills, victims or Monsters, will be treated as blooded.
