Hee hee hee
Now you've got to think of a way to make troopers take "imagining things"
rolls as they get more and more freaked out. Such as, any time soldiers
enter a room, there's a chance of Freaking Out based on:
1. How many of his comrades have been subjected to a grisly alien butchering
2. The number of turns elapsed since the first alien kill
3. How few allies he has entering the room with him
4. Whether the lights are on or off
5. Whether the aliens have decorated the room with abstract patterns of
Trooper-entrails
This might add one too many levels of complexity, but it shouldn't be hard
to find a way to limit freakout rolls until later in the game when there
aren't as many (intact) minifigs left in play.
As the "Alien GM" you should probably keep notes on what the aliens were
doing each turn because, once the game is over, the other players will
probably want to know how everything went down the way it went down.
