Okay I remember photos of a ufo from a shadowrun book a while back. Now I recently read a live chat transcript (the most recent one) that suggested the UFO picture was explained.....what was the explaination?

"Montaincarver Regarding The Big D's will from ages past. There was the 'questionable' UFO pic from Mars that appeared there. Will ETs be explored in
SR anytime soon?
Peter Taylor The questionable UFO picture was followed up and explained by one of the adventures in the "Missions" adventure pack.
We have no plans to explore ETs in Shadowrun in the foreseeable future."

It was a fake. I believe it was explained in the Missions scenario book, but my memory has been somewhat shaky lately.

Edit: I guess not that shaky! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The reality was that there was some leftover magic stuff (ex.: troll skeletons) on Mars, and that someone digitally ruined the photos with obviously fake flying saucer inserts.

This is clearly a cover up! UFO's have been visiting Earth for decades if not centuries. They are using us and harvesting human organs to save their dying race!

I personally have always found it interesting that there were real, valid skeletons on Mars but that someone covered it up with the fake UFOs so people would assume the skeletons were fake, too.

I still wanna know how those mofos got to mars.

Troll skeletons, huh ? Is it for sure ? As much as I remember, that picture seemed all the way like dragon skeletons to me.

Ah, so you consider draconian measures?

No dragon skeletons. You just get confirmation of the horned skull and femur of someone who stood approximately 3 meters tall amongst the other bones. In Shadowrun, that normally means Troll.

Although it could plausibly be the remains of the villains from Doom, that would fit as well.

After further study the UCAS Air Force has arrived at the conclusion that the "Bones" in question are nothing more than rock formations. The resemblance to Troll bones is just a distortion in the images caused by a combination of swamp gas and the shadow of a passing weather balloon. Once again there are no Aliens and no Trolls on mars.

This information was confirmed by a pair of men wearing black clothing, driving a 1969 Lincoln Continental.

They presented no ID, nor any names, just confirmed the information, quite adamently. While making the glass of water the person got them earlier into Soymilk.

So do you get royalty payments from project Blue book or just normal pay from the QM?

Remember the LaGrange point #3 with the Nerva Beacon station on it has some real trid horror level stuff going down there.
