How compatible is Aliens Unlimited to Heroes Unlimited 2e?

Does it work for making characters for HU2e or would the character be weaker than they are in the main book (HU2e)?

Perfectly compatible.

As far as I know, the current "Revised" edition of AU was designed for HU2e.... it's completely compatible.

The AU revised book is to the HU2 standard.

Even using the AU 1st ed book is totally compatible with HU2 except for the Magic spells in the front.

The Aliens Unlimited books are perfectly compatible and a good resource if you want to expand your ability to write up aliens.

AU:GG was written after HU2E, and they use the same rule set.
