I'm no longer a regular trooper! I've been upgraded to Hero, I can die with
honor!!!

Everything is going to be on paper. From the starting position of each
Alien, to every move by turn and every attack. That's the only way I'll have
to control each creature during the game, also to prove that I'm not leaning
to any side in the confrontation and that I'm not cheating, which is always
hard, because everybody in NELUG knows that I'm constantly cheating.
Here's a picture of a poor trooper running for the CommLink to notify his
gruesome discovery and about to become Alien snack.
