Fistful of Aliens was a game using collectible figures produced by the Yes! Entertainment Corporation. They had a production run from 1997–1999 with 2 series produced. They were discontinued before the 3rd series was released, when the company went bankrupt. The figures were sold in various packages. The standard offered 8 visible aliens and 1 hidden mutant or RAMM.〔http://www.mindspring.com/~dmalderman/foa/images/battlepack.jpg〕 Also for purchase was a Space Pod pack where you would get the figures above, plus a small ship to store your figures in. Series 2 introduced spring-loaded missile weapons, Crystalite power players, and the SciRoid Battleship. All packages included instructions for gameplay, a chapter of the overall story, and a collectors card for the mutant or RAMM in that package. ==Story== The setting for the game was in the "Outer Galaxies" in the year 3037. Three alien races constantly war with each other, but due to their unique physical traits, no race could ever be the victor. In an attempt to bring unity to their races, the elders of each planet created SciRoids (Scientific Androids) to create a super race of mutants that would share all 3 traits of the alien races, and would rule over them peacefully. However, because of the instability of the alien's genetic makeups, no more than 2 species could be combined successfully. The end result was a race of mutants that widened the rift towards peace. Because only 2 species would be represented by a single mutant, the third race would always feel enmity towards them. In addition to this, a rare alignment of the planets created an energy feedback at the VirtLabs; causing nuclear explosions that resulted in the birth of yet another race of beings called the RAMMs (Rare Alien Metallic Mutants). The RAMMs were cloned versions of the other mutant warlords, only bronzed over and super powered. But the SciRoid's greatest failure towards peace was the creation of the E-RAMM warlord, Jangutz Khan. He became the high commander of all the mutants. Although he was a combination of 2 species like his brothers, he exhibited signs of the 3rd species' traits and was thus as close to a perfect mutant as you could get. However, this imbalance caused his mind to slowly degenerate until he was completely mad. The elders decided that the mutants were only inhibiting peace with their power, and had them sent into exile. This transformed Khan's madness into rage. Khan intercepted the space pods his brothers were exiled in and rebuilt them as machines of war. The mutants then returned to their homeworlds and began enslaving their lesser alien cousins; forcing them to battle to the death with slaves of the other mutants. Khan's final act before he left the galaxy for parts unknown, was to capture the SciRoid peace ship, force the SciRoids to rebuild it as the flagship of his mutant army, and to toss the SciRoids into the vacuum of space. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fistful of Aliens」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
