Rules for miniatures covering the “historical” War of the Worlds Martian invasion of Earth. The game is designed for fast play. Some changes were made to the Martian capabilities described in the H. G. Wells novel to make the game competitive. Martians are limited in their supply of Black Gas and cannot simply fire at every copse insight. One miniature stand represents one Martian tripod, one infantry company, one cavalry troop or one artillery battery.
