I plan on trying some prints myself this weekend! Wish me luck!

After a dream about 4 years ago, I set about writing a game for the post-Martian invasion of Orson Welles. Plus, I wanted a new reason to use all my cool All Quiet on the Martian Front models and Copplestone Castings gangster miniatures I had painted up. Under the Martian Yoke was born!

Below are some images I have of the game....



Here some survivors try to fend off a Martian Tripod! Things do not look good for them!



Enemies are not just Tripods though. Through their advanced tech, the Martians have re-animated dead bodies to act as their proxies. These horrors roam the ruins of the East Coast flushing out prey for the Martians at feast on!

Here is an assortment of Martian baddies. However, the game has a large bestiary with various forms of cadaver troops, wild dogs, drones, tripods, and other gribblies to fight off.
