Hey guys!

Now, I am a huge huge huge fan of Aliens Vs Predators, and that is an understatement. I own all the films, some comics , concept art, well you probably get the picture. I have a question for you guys. What do you think the stats of an Xeno or a Predator would be? Keep in mind that they are basically the same strength and defense respectively, but Predators are a little more cunning.... Ok get going...

the Xenomorphs are pure killing machines, and it is hinted that they were created artificially by another superior race, to destroy worlds and leave them ready for invasion... The stats for the Alien would be much higher than those of the Predator, although the Pred has weapons to balance it out a bit ;)
P.S I too am a MASSIVE Aliens universe fan, I even have a tattoo of an Alien on my shoulder :P

“We got nukes, we got knives, we got sharp sticks.”

In the right conditions a single pred could take out multiple xenos. So I think the pred would need to have hero stats, or possibly monster stats, with the xenos being more like goblins or maybe spiders, relatively speaking of course.

It's not so much their stats as sepcial rules - cloaking or acid blood, etc.

Roughly
Alien Predator
LotR: Gothmog Aragorn
40K: 'Nid Prime Mephiston
Fantasy: Dragon Ogre Valten

You'd never actually get them balanced though, even the movies made it unclear on enough definite features to make comparative rules.

What about the Alien Queen?
And the Engineers from Prometheus?
And HR Giger proposed more stages and variants of aliens than those seen in the movies.
