Beer & Pretzel Space Marines

This is a down-and-dirty, shoot-em-up miniatures game centered on the actions of an intrepid squad of grunts (based on the Colonial Marines in “Aliens”) surviving the best they can against galactic nasties.

It is designed with solo play in mind with the player (or a pair of players cooperating) controlling the Marines, but having another player running the Bad Guys is possible: While commanding a mindless horde has few (if any) tactical demands, chomping Marines has a certain appeal…

While properly executed small-unit tactics will pay dividends players need not be fluent in such knowledge, and time-consuming ponderings will rarely yield benefits worth their cost.


Like the Sarge says: “Don’t think…SHOOT!”
