SKy Martians Attack!
« on: March 09, 2013, 06:16:50 PM »
We are currently playtesting our VSF rules mash up (based on Sharp Practice) entitled Red Planet Rumpus/Fifty Shades of Red which we intend to use at Salute where we will be displaying Jim Bibbly's Oshiro Models splendid terrain and our Red Planet Miniatures.

Here are a few photos from a recent encounter between  Japanese infantry (with steam support in the guise of a tank and Impervious suit) tasked with defending a Martian farmstead from attack by the indigenous Sky Martians.















Did the Japanese manage to hold the farmstead ???

But they're only Japanese.
What can you expect?

After all, they don't play cricket.
