Science-fiction enemies are the alien and the fantastic brought about not
through magic but through science and exploration of the far-flung reaches of space. In Macho Women With Guns the source of the science-fiction elements is aliens come to Earth or certain advanced human
enclaves. Science-fiction enemies include aliens, cyborgs and robots all turned to new and sinister purpose in the dark future after The Dang.
Nasty, vicious spiky creatures from another planet, originally pets but abandoned, unwanted on the Earth where they have now bred and are starting to cause problems. These aliens are little more than animals but have a vicious array of claws, talons and teeth that can cause even the most hardened Macho Woman to pause for thought. To add insult to injury they bleed acid when they are shot, which hurts.
Species Traits
Acidic Ickies: Anyone within five feet of an alien that takes any lethal damage must make a Reflex save against a DC of 13 or get splashed with acid for 1d6 damage.
Implant: Immobile or unconscious enemies carried off by the aliens get an egg implanted in their rectum which explodes outwards for 3d6 damage after a couple of days, rapidly growing to become a new alien. This can be resisted with a Fortitude save against a DC of 30. Succeeding crushes the baby alien between rock hard buttocks.

Created in the shape of cartoon characters and historical figures by Bart Bisney, these robots prowl his ruined leisure park and have begun to intrude on other areas subjecting them to death, slavery and torture along with musical routines and patronising morality plays. Some new animatronic robots have begun to be created as Bart incorporates stories from captured settlements giving them his own unique twist and ‘merchandising’ them to death.

The great man himself, a frozen head attached to a hulking behemoth of a robotic
body. Barely alive and driven by hate, he works tirelessly in the automated factories beneath Bisneyland churning out animatronic robots by the hundred to scour the world and to man his torture park.
Bart’s deep insanity still has a tiny core of humanity left at the very centre which leads him to hand out balloons to children before he has his robots nail them to the walls of the cinema sphere.

Cannon Fodder
The very pinnacle of military high-tech just before The Dang, the Battlewarmechbots were destined to rule the battlefields of Earth until a combination of public fear and the realisation that they were a stupid idea hit their development. The remaining ones had smiley faces painted on them to allay people’s fears and were then mothballed. Some of these stores have been found after The Dang and while most find use as walking billboards some have been rearmed and used to rampage and destroy.
Battlewarmechbots have to be piloted, they have no will of their own.

Battlewarmechbots are almost always found singly but accompanied by bandits or other troublemakers.
Card carrying aliens from the Red Planet trying to subvert governments, devalue the dollar and eliminate faith. Working closely with the Alaskans and shuttling to and fro from Mars, the Commies work tirelessly to bring their brand of extraterrestrial Marxism to the Earth. They must be stopped!
Species Traits

Mars, or in Alaska. Commies from Mars always travel in pairs and may be accompanied by Alaskan troops.
Enormous cybertanks that were all the rage just before Battlewarmechbots became de rigueur.
Incredibly powerful but with the cybernetic brains of a 1980s arcade machine the Helltanks soon went utterly gaga and were mothballed. Years later after The Dang some fool reactivated one, which reactivated the others, and now they cruise around the country blowing up anything they take a dislike to.
Species Traits
Construct: See d20 Modern Roleplaying Game for full details of these creatures.
Damage Reduction: 20/electricity.
Radioactive: Anyone within five-feet of a Helltank takes one point of damage a turn from the leaky radioactive pile that powers it.

Notes: Helltanks can be found just about anywhere. Helltanks operate alone, but may be accompanied by other robots or by the scavengers who follow in the wake of their destructive actions.
The Texans are still a male-dominated society of reasonably high technology and they are looking for ways to tip the balance of nature back towards an even fifty-fifty split in gender so that men can assume what the Texans believe to be their rightful superiority once again. One of the methods they use to try and make this happen are their Hunter Impregnator robots. Armed with metallic tentacles and a reservoir of donated sperm, the Hunter Impregnator scours the deserts around Texas looking for suitable targets and doing its damnedest to get them pregnant.
Species Traits
Impregnate: After a successful Grapple the Hunter Impregnator can… well, when a robot and a lady love each other very much… anyway, 9
months later there might be a kid, OK?
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability the impregnator must hit with a tentacle attack. Full details for this ability can be found in d20 Modern Roleplaying Game.

It seems that Earth has something of a reputation as being the Amsterdam or Bangkok of the universe. A great many small, grey alien tourists come to Earth
Cannon Fodder
every year knowing that any fool with a stun beam and a probulator can get some jollies from those easy Earth girls.
Species Traits
Spooky: Greys are unsettling to look at and anyone attacking them suffers a -1 to their attack roll. Greys gain a bonus of +1 to their Intimidation checks.

Hunter Impregnators are not always effective, more organised communities or tribes are able to gang up and eliminate so obvious a threat. The Texan authorities came up with an idea for a stealth unit that could also do the job, a robot clad in lifelike skin and buff so that it would be popular with the ladies. While dumb as a box of rocks the series was successful and units without their skin are used to back up Hunter Impregnators in other areas.
Species Traits
Construct: See d20 Modern Roleplaying Game.
Impregnate: If a Sperminator manages to get a woman into bed, or is taken there, it will attempt to impregnate her. The outcome is up to the Games Master.
Stealth Skin: It is DC20 check to notice a Sperminator in its skin covering is anything other than a big dumb jock.

Notes: Sperminators are usually found in the deserts around Texas but can be found further afield.
