It was a fun game, came down to the last few die rolls.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Martians arrive for a food restocking. They were to advance upon the town, the Red Martian being accompanied by the newly arrived Harvester, and get in there to grind up some Earthling crunchies and munchies!!
The Humans are ready for the Martian advance and are spoiling for a fight. Little do the Martians realize that this time the Humans have brought with them the latest innovation from the brilliant Nikola Tesla, his Lightning Gun! (Seen near the middle top of the 2nd picture below)
The Martians advance.......
The Harvester ready to grind up a defenseless human it scooped up.....
Unafraid, the Humans move forward. Defense of a homeland, or in this case, a homeworld, is a powerful motivator...
Cannons booming, Heat Rays burning flesh and melting steel the battle is joined. In a war between worlds no quarter is asked or given.....
A direct hit is scored and an Assault Tripod explodes catastrophically taking a Scout Tripod behind with it!
The battle raged with losses being taken on both side. The remaining Human defenders move into position and draw up a last line of defense.
The Martians continued their advance and taking losses until it finally came down to next side to lose a unit would break. The Humans got the initiative (to much cheering and throwing of arms into the air) but failed to score a kill (to much groaning and throwing of arms into the air). The Martians returned in kind and destroyed most of the units seen in the picture above.
A hard fought but Pyrrhic Martian Victory!!!!!
