I like the suggestions. I might try throwing those in later. Right now, I want to make sure it's balanced with a more vanilla ruleset, since throwing in roles carries its own balance concerns. as i'm assuming each crew member can "hide" what items they have All actions are publicly visible...

Errata notes: So that you don't need to re-read the rules in their entirety, here are a few recent changes:

Drop item: New free action. Is this useful? Who knows!

Take item: You can forcibly take any item from subdued/stunned crewmates.

Monitor crewmate: Limit one per round.

The idea of another traitor is interesting, but there are several complicating factors that I feel make it a bad fit: - The victory condition for the traitor is suspiciously similar to the parasite's. This makes it needlessly complicated for the parasite to win. - It's relatively easy to incapacitat...

This is my frowny face: :(

Read the rules, do the math, and ask yourself if the crew needs extra sabotaging. If you're lucky, though, you might start with the parasite!

You can only fire once per round, and stunning only lasts one round, but yes.

You can repair repair kits as long as you have a repair kit to repair your repair kit.

Parasite: Rules

You and your crewmates are awakened from stasis by an automated alarm: life support systems are failing, a hull breach is causing oxygen supplies to dwindle, and an alien presence has been detected aboard the ship! There isn't much time to spare: you are aboard a sinking ship, and each moment that p...

I remember you. Feature-wise, the OHR is better than ever, and it keeps getting better. For a good cross-section of what's good, check out the recent Game of the Month titles and the Game of the Year voting thread, or just check out the gamelist sorted by ratings . In no particular order, here are s...
