See the galaxy, take on the universe!ENLIST IN THE U.S. COLONIAL MARINE CORPS—2230s Recruiting Slogan SIERRA COMPANY, USCMC is a small-scale, play-by-post message board roleplaying game set in the Aliens universe. A two year old spin-off of the original Omega Company, Sierra centres on a platoon of Colonial Marines aboard the USS Tyr, a Loki-class corvette on a long patrol well outside of 'safe' space. They operate in any weather, on any planet, under any circumstances: attacking, defending, protecting, investigating, searching, rescuing. The missions they face are as diverse as the places they go—the objectives doubly so. This game focuses more on interaction between characters than interaction with the system, and the rules and regulations of the Colonial Marine Corps are a touch looser out on the edge of populated space. You're allowed to act like a human being on the Tyr, because the brass aren't watching, and you're supposed to use your head and use it well, because the good guys might not always win. You might not always be the good guys... If you're looking to shoot people and blow things up, there are a dozen other RPGs out there for you. But if you want quality roleplaying – in a military environment – then there's only one Sierra Company... so sign your name to Uncle Sam, see the galaxy, take on the universe, and be home in time for lunch. There's an open seat on that troopship, Marine, and the mission's waiting.
