Under the Martian Yoke- Basic Rules

[Eric Farrington]

I actually have three projects in the works to get to WIP stage.

The first is called tentatively: Under the Martian Yoke and is a post-Orson Welles War of the World Post-Apoc Skirmish game. It features some interesting features such as:

1. Randomized survivor bands
2. Rising threat levels impacting actions
3. Activation risk
4. Suppression fire

The emphasis is on survival horror with Martian's and their minions an ever present danger. As a horror game, things do not get easier for your Survivor bands..... only harder.....

This takes place as if Orson Welles War of the Worlds actually happened, and the humans lost! I have been working on campaign rules to make it a complete game. I plan on using AQMF models for Martians, Copplestone Casting 28mm gangsters for the survivors, The Chicago Way terrain, and yet to be determined ranges for some of the other threats.

Anyway, I have the main rules here:

I added these to the WIP section of the blog now.

The eagle eyed among you will see that I removed this from the WIP section of the blog. There are two reasons:

1. I completely re-vamped the rules
2. The new rules have almost 0 to do with how I did it before
3. I want to play test them before I re-post them
