Hi, I’m sure everyone’s becoming aware that there is an Alien 2nd edition on the way. Probably a bit soon to know the answer but I’ll ask anyway!
Will the new version be supported on Demiplane or Roll20 now that they own Demiplane?

Also @MellieDM …how’s that option to print character sheets going? It’d be super handy for my luddite players who hate having 6 laptops around the table.
We absolutely plan to support the new edition. 
And printing characters is still in the works, but as sklore_jp pointed out, we’ve just released two! More to come.
I thought y’all had Printing for Alien?!
It works for me at least.
Will people have to buy the new version when it comes out or will the manual just get updated?
When the new version of Alien comes out it will be a separate purchase and include a bunch of new content. It will however be fully compatible with previous releases and game material.
Free League have said “the PDFs of Building Better Worlds and Colonial Marines Operations Manual will be automatically updated to the Evolved Edition on DrivethruRPG”, “as the changes are so minor”; do you know if there are any plans to extend this to the Demiplane version, too?
Thanks!
I’ve not heard anything definitive there yet. I’ll follow up on it however and see what I’m able to learn.
