TNE K'Kree

[Jeffr0]

Was there a TNE supplement that detailed K'Kree PC generation...?

Nope - K'Kree were never mentioned in the TNE as PCs, and only in passing as NPCs (they didn't even give any specs for them)

They would have come out eventually, but GDW closed its doors before the Curtain was lifted.

Actually their more carniverous neighbors hunted them down and invited them to a BBQ.

More obviously the K'Kree seem to rely on automation to get arround the space/claustraphobia problems in their war machine.

That means the virus (if compatible) could have been particularily bad.

Supposedly, Nilsen had some weird plans for the K'kree in TNE that never saw the light of day (perhaps thankfully - after the laughably bad "breeds" in "Vampire Ships" I'd rather glad we didn't see any more of TNE's clever ideas). The creatures living in vacuum on the cover of the rulesbook were supposedly Virus-modified K'kree.

This is a roundabout way of saying "no K'kree chargen because they had something weird planned for them."

Not sure about the rulebook, but I can see where that's coming from. I heard the rulebook was just a generic 'spacy' cover commissioned from an artist - people started asking about the regal lady on the cover and this was the genesis of the Empress Wave.

One thing I do know is that the 'limbed' scout-courier creatures on the cover of the TNE T-shirt are Battledressed K'kree from behind the Black Curtain. I think this was mentioned in the 'Ask Dave Nilsen' thread a few years back.

Is there an image of that t-shirt anywhere? I've used (am using) those cyber-K'Kree but have never seen the shirt in question.

JFetters posted a pic of it in the gallery:
