All Quiet on the Martian Front - They came from the desert

The British North African Forces have several staging areas in native towns all over North Africa.  They generally have small local forces along with a garrison of British forces, they are storage areas for the building up of supplies so they are ready for a big push to destroy Martian holdfasts in North Africa.

The British garrison ready for inspection.  The vehicles all parked at the back are awaiting crews which are due to arrive over the next few days.

Bedouin camel scouts are racing back to the fort.

They have come to warn that the Martian are advancing quickly and are nearly upon the town.  The bedouin have also informed one of the columns bringing crew for the vehicles and they are making all speed toward s the town. 

The British and bedouin forces quickly deploy.  The first support column arrives and they quickly deploy their guns and armoured cars while the trucks race the crews to the vehicles.

Just as the first wave of Martians arrive

Turn 2 Humans - Their reinforcements arrive. Move , fire and destroy other Assault Tripod  and Scout Tripod

Turn 2 Martian - Their reinforcements arrive to see the field littered with destroyed tripods. They move, fire and miss everything.

Turn 3 Martians - Move, fire and manage to destroy 1 MKIII tank.

Turn 3 Humans - Move , fire and manager to cripple Harvester (Both weapon and mobility) , damage 1 Slaver and destroy the Veteran Tripod.

All Quiet on the Martian Front - Drones and Overseer progress

Finished up some drones for my North African Martian Pod.  3 Royal shock drones and 9 normal drones

Also managed to get the basecoat on the overseer

All Quiet on the Martian Front - Overseer

I have started my Overseer build but forgot to start a post.  

First up pictures of the parts before I clean them up

Cleaned up head

Replacement legs have turned up thanks to Ironclad Games who have redesigned the legs making them much thinker.  They have also redone the mould for the head which should help with cleaning it up.  The new legs are so much better than the old ones.

Overseer now built.  The tentacles where very poorly cast and I managed to glue the middle part back to front but it looks ok for now.  Just need to get some paint on it.
