As of late I've been playing some Alien/Aliens/AvP games and then realized that it would be brutal if my little Rimworld travelers landed on LV-426, built a colony called Hadley's Hope, and built a nice life.... Until around turn day 360.. Someone gets face ****ed and now is impregnated with an Xenomorph. Terror will soon arise as this is a colony with no military gear, and the Alien that will emerge is something fierce. Not Colonial Marines style, we are talking H.R. Gigers original Alien that is basically bullet proof to small arms.

At this point the alien grows and drags someone off to eggmorph them, and then begins this process with harvesting more colonists. The more people it drags off the more xenos will show up within three turns of each missing colonist. The Xenos would be able to pass through specific blocks and stuff to simulate jumping out of vents and shafts, ambushing quickly and even able to dispatch a crew of five within a few short seconds. Your colonials would need to research molotovs, flame thrower parts, and the weaponizing of engineering tools in order to fight back. Colonial Marines never show up. It's up to you to fight against the aliens and find a way to take out the nest. Around turn 500 W-Y Mercs show up and try to kidnap/kill colonists as well as Xenos for study.

Ellen Ripley as a Story Teller

For those techs and other lovers of engineering sciences. July 10, 1856 Nikola Tesla was born. A majority of his great ideals and technology can be seen all around us to this day and will still be that way in the future.  We can also commemorate Elon Musk of Tesla Motors and SpaceX for donating 1M$ to the Tesla Science Museum at Wardenclyffe; Tesla purchased 200 acres on Long Island’s north shore from James Warden. These 200 acres were part of an 1,800 acre potato farm along what is today Route 25A in Shoreham, NY. The site became known as Wardenclyffe, after the former owner.

“My brain is only a receiver, in the Universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength and inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists.”

((Updated the Storyteller to be nicer since people were saying it was still hard. ))

While i'ts not actually a mod, more like an edited storytellerdef.xml file, it's a fun little balance. At least for me. Enjoy


The Survivalist is a soft-core storyteller who enjoys a peaceful play-through with some small hiccups from time to time.  He is a balance between Phobe and Cassandra. It works well for me but as how things work in the world there may be some things that need fixing. Let me know if there is.

Thanks to mipen(I saw your mod, loved it! I enjoy having a bunch of people running around ), ItchyFlea(For posting how to put up Story Teller pictures. NightShade is adorable), and Tynan(For making this horrible game <3) for the inspiration. Been wanting to make my own storyteller for a while now. Hopefully I can learn how to customize it better.

I hold no rights to anything on the forum, in the game, or my wallet since the ferret stole it. Also made this storyteller while drunk so if there are any typos in the file feel free to throw tomatoes at me. You're free to burn it, edit it, spank it, or use it in any way you please.

So I want to start getting into making my own mod, I'm very new at this. While I know how to manipulate and play with the XML files, I got no idea how to make or open or do anything with a DLL file. I've looked on the internet and the things from Microsoft don't help me, and I don't know about using other sites because the last thing I want to do is download a fake file and virus (call me paranoid lol.).

Do I have to create a DLL file just to add in some renamed/upgraded XML weapons, maybe some re-textured sprites? Any help on this would be appreciated!

So I haven't seen this yet, noticed someone else is doing a Starship Troopers mod so decided to request something I haven't seen on the forum yet. I love the zombie horde mode, I love the SST mod as well, but I can't help but fantasize how fun it would be to face  either one xenomorph that does hit and run strikes, or a mass swarming from a nearby hive that nearly destroys my base.  Like the horde mod a person injured by a face hugger will end up dying but producing a chest burster that would in turn run away only to come back a day or so later to finish the job. The drones/warriors of course wouldn't want to kill the colonists, but instead drag them off to be hosts who you could go rescue if there was a way to spawn a hive on the map O.o?

If someone plans to do this or wishes to undertake it that would be awesome to see. I lack the coding and artistic skills to pull something like this off, I'd rather just throw a donation at someone and hope they can to the job.
