Hlyss Harvest War?

[greentongue]

In the oEPT rules there is a single Hlyss entry.

Back in '77 there was a micro game called Chitin: I, The Harvest Wars that was about alien insectiods fighting over food.

What if the Hlyss came in versions like in Chitin?
Also, what if they invaded human occupied areas to harvest people as incubators and food?

I envision the "original" Hlyss as "uncloaked" Low Hackers and derive the others from there.


Would this make a fun "Grand Campaign"?
