OK complete madness from me again but possibly the funniest game we have played ever, IHMN my mate Alec brought his collection of the TOR gaming soft toy solders as a company and I as always never know what he wll bring collect a John carter of Mars company, we selected the terrian which was from SDRS a temple with monks and the complications as the temple dictates that casualty s can summon a daemon inside the temple. we rolled scenario 1 part 1 so 3 objectives to get back to our entry spots..
Alec laid out the table on an old D&D mat and some anstey walls i added the cultist (well monks did not fit really though i do have many)
the scene is set temple complex with 3 obbjectives
Alec s company captian sgt, Dr and some cav and troopers respectively
My company John Carter, Dejah , Tars Tarkus and 5 Green men
The toys advance to capture the objectives
Carters warriors have a more direct path
the toys grab an objective but dont enter the temple yet
the hulking Martians stalk the temple finding the objectives
A cavalry man takes off on his own firing inot the temple
only to shoot a cultist 1 point to the roll for deamons to arrive
the said deamons ready to wreak out plans
and the end of the turn one arrive and charges Tars tarkus
the other cavalryman does a runner with an objective
A green warrior charges blocking the path and 3 toys attack him in turn
Tars tackles the deamon both brutal fighters
Carter makes his way through the temple to a rear attack position on the toys
the green man is surrounded by bayonets and steel
Tars slays the deamon and follows carter
a second green man grabs the objective and backs off the toys firing but to no avail
his gellow warrior is felled out side by the toys as he enters the temple
another green man is shoot from outside dejah arrive to heal the warrior up hopefully
the retreating martian makes for the escape point with the objective
Finaly under intens blows the Martian outside is taken out of the game
Dejahs charms rise the green man as a deamon appers and charge into the frey
a second warrior fights off the toys who swamp him
Tarkus is at the rear of the toys laine and charges in radium pistol firing
the toys try to enter the temple past the fighting martian
another deamon appears (i belive the score was +5 in the end on a D10 to get and * for one to appear)
the toy sgt charges poor Dejah
the deamon attaxk a single green man
another toy charged Dejah
out side the second greenman falls unconscious but not dead to the toys
Carter engages the captian
Tarkus in combat with another toy cavalry man
Dejah now also swamped by toy soilders
Carter knocks the captin donw slaying the creature
the toys finish off the fallen martian
Tarkyus is also feled but not slain
another deamon appears
suddenly carter is shott downed
a lone toy firing at range responsible (both leaders out of the game again)
Dejah falls as the second objective carrying martian leave the table
the remaining martian is slain by weight of number and the game is over.
The Carter company won by 42 to 34 points, we just had so much fun playing alec had tears in his eyes at some of the out comes , IHMN as always giving a really fun game and
Who makes the John Carter of Mars figures you are using?
