The first pics of the new project. Greys, Ethereals, Saucers, Advanced flying craft, and the Canadian army of 1955 to hold them back.

Please let me know what you think. Except if you hate it. Don't let me know that.

UPDATE:
Photos of the Aliens now online!

Thanks! All came to me in a flash. I have been hunting for aliens for a long time. Found the ships and the aliens all at Sentry Box.  o_o

Thank you! The large epic feel was what I wanted.

A fine suggestion on the guns! I have been shopping around to get what I need, debating for AA as well.

I do have a CF-100 Canuck "Clunk" on the way for fighter interdiction, and a T-bird for fighter support/electronic warfare.

Doms Decals do the roundels I need for the planes but their site is doing odd things.

Lots more to come!

I am! In fact, the invasion is going to take place at Nose Hill Park - "Site C-9", as it's close to my house.  :D

You're from here, too?

Yes indeedy, and I'm always looking for folks to game with. It does look like your scale preference is different than mine, as I'm mainly a 28~32mm gamer. But I have plenty of board games too. Hit me up with a PM if you want to try arranging something!

Will the foot troopers be effective against the aliens or are they just mobile targets for heat rays?

Not sure yet. They will have a bazooka per 8 man section, so they might do something to the aliens. Maybe...  lol

Of course, the more melted heat ray troops and head explosions due to psychic intrusions the better!

You could have units that have been 'probed' get a massive morale drop and go to ground.

 :o

I'm going to have to figure out some rules for all this too. Add in some dinosaurs, Daleks, maybe some other stuff - man, I'm going to have launch a whole game line!  :-*
