Which Alien is Dangerous?

Since I wrote a bit last week about aliens in Traveller and Thousand Suns, I thought it'd be a good time to share this advertisement from issue #98 of Dragon (June 1985). It's one of a series of ads GDW ran promoting its series of Alien Modules. 


This ad is one I remember very vividly for the way it attempts to draw you into the Third Imperium setting and its unique elements. Arguably, the advertisement is a bit too wordy to be effective, but I've always liked it, precisely because it goes into some detail about the three species who are the subjects of the Alien Modules available at the time. Plus, the fact that it's the K'Kree rather than, say, the Aslan who are the most dangerous of the three just tickles the world builder in me.
