Game Description:
June 1875
Essex England
During the summer of 1875 the Great Martian Invasion of Earth began! Martian Tripods ravaged the British countryside laying waste to all before them, impervious to every weapon Britain’s Army fielded against them. Unbeknownst to the Alien Invaders though, Her Imperial Majesty’s Forces were busy re-equipping with the latest weapons of war. It was believed these modern steam powered contraptions would put an end to the Martian Tripods’ rampant destruction!
Mid morning Tuesday June 22nd; elements of the Queen’s Own Steam Dragoons and a flyer from the famous 266 Squadron under the command of the highly decorated Colonel Puddin K.B.E encountered a Martian machine designated as ‘Tripod X’. The Colonel promptly roared “Charge!” to his men but his further words of encouragement were drowned out by the thunder of steam engines! Facing the British on the other side of the battlefield with its unblinking red eye glaring ominously, the metallic monster from Mars glided effortlessly forward…the battle began…
Participants can command either the stoic Red Coats or an Evil Martian Fighting Machine and battle to the death! No experience of the rules is required. The game will be run three times during the day; 10:30am, 12:30pm and 2:30pm.
