CT Only: Favorite Major Aliens

[Supplement Four]

What are your favorite major aliens (not necessarily a major race) that have been detailed in CT supplements?

 

[robject]

That was a tough decision!

 

[Enoki]

I'd pick None of the above

 

[Supplement Four]

I'd pick None of the above

You don't like any of the above?

 

[robject]

He wants to vote on a different poll entirely, it seems.

 

[Enoki]

You don't like any of the above?

None of them are my "favorite."

When did the Solomani become an alien race?

I thought that Earth was the source for all of the various human races in the Imperium.

Otherwise, none of the above.

 

[Spinward Scout]

Would Vilani be different than Imperial Human?

 

[Supplement Four]

When did the Solomani become an alien race?

Been that way. Thus, CT's Solomani Alien Module. The Solomani Confederation is the Canada to the Imperium's USA.

I thought that Earth was the source for all of the various human races in the Imperium.

It is. But, the Solomani have a distinct culture that is different that the culture of the Imperium. Just like the Zhodani are human but culturally different.

 

[Supplement Four]

Would Vilani be different than Imperial Human?

Yes.

Culturally and somewhat physically, too (the Vilani, according to DGP, are very long lived).

2300 Aliens are best aliens, but gotta love them wacky starfish!

I agree, which is why I have adapted pentapod gods to become the Abyssals. I like the Ylii too.

I've always had a soft spot for the Ithklur since we learned of them.

 

[Supplement Four]

I'm surprised that the Aslan are getting no love.

 

[Supplement Four]

And, I'm kinda surprised that the Vargr are getting so much love.

It is yet a very small sample, to be sure, though.

 

[aramis]

I'm surprised that the Aslan are getting no love.

They're misunderstood (especially since MGT's module) as "samurai cats"... and while that is the initial published concept, GDW's Alien Module made them somewhat different...

Plus, the LtWatW references.

 

[Timerover51]

Plus, the LtWatW references.

I apologize for my ignorance, but what does "LtWatW" mean?

 

[Straybow]

I like the idea of uplifted canine/lupine stock as alien, even in a milieu without life originating beyond Earth.

 

[Condottiere]

Shouldn't it start off as The Lion?

LtWatW

aramis typo'd. He means The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by CS Lewis

Thank you for the explanation. I do like the Narnia series, with my favorite book being the Voyage of the Dawn Treader followed by The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
