All Quiet on the Martian Front - USA Forces

I have hardly done any painting this year as have been far too busy with other projects.  But over the past few months I have managed to get a lot more of my USA forces painted.  Still some to paint but so far I now have a reasonable size force.

All Quiet on the Martian Front - They came from the desert Part 2

Finally got round to playing this game over the holidays.  The most important part of the game is really who won the first initiative roll and it was won by the martians.

Turn 1 - Martian

They all advance and open fire. Two armoured cars are destroyed along with one field gun.  They then advance further on there second move.

Turn 1 - Humans

Trucks race to get the crews to the vehicles, All fire and nearly everything misses apart from one MG team who manage to cripple an assault tripod.

Turn 2 - Humans win the initiative

The Trucks continue to race out of the martian path.  Everything fires causing a damage to assault tripods along with a weapons damage and another one with movement problems.  Two drones are also destroyed.

 Turn 2 - Martian

Turn 3 - Martians

All move and fire. Rolls for damaged movement and weapons are all won again. Another MG team is killed along with 2 armoured cars and 4 stands of Scots guards.  The dominator tripod manages to kill 2 trucks loaded with crewmen.  All move again
