One of the primary issues with challenging PCs in science fiction games is that you often have to break their equipment, steal their equipment, and/or have them facing equally technological adversaries. One solution to the above issues is to introduce alien threats that have methods for overcoming technology, either mundane or mystical, especially when it comes to nonsapient threats. I will a couple that I have develop for my settings:

Absolute Invisibility: Invisibility (EM; Affect Machines, +50%) [60]

Deadly Pincers: Piercing Attack 4d (Armor Divisor, /10, +200%; Melee, C-1, Dual Weapon, Destructive Parry, +0%) [60]

What type of ways do you make nonsapient threats relevant it a Space campaign?
