I didn't take any pictures of the game as it slows it down and annoys the kids.  The Martians were totally destroyed by my kids keep rolling 10s!

It went something like this.

Turn 1 Martians - Move, fire and miss everying

Turn 1 Humans - Move, fire and destroy 2 Assault Tripods (1 of them the Black Dust).  Also cripple the scout Tripod

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.

Turn 4 Humans - Move, Fire and destroy both Slavers and the Harvester.


Humans win with loss of only 1 tanks.  Damn their dice rolls!
