This was a goofy, quick, one-sided - but very fun - scenario to play face-to face with the fearless PANISTA handling the defending Earthlings in rural New Jersey. The Martians were at their most deadly in what rapidly turned into a massacre, but the hard-pressed, but resolute, National Guardmen made a fight of it, and were able to destroy one of the 3 Martian machines during the 9th game turn. Alas, for the fate of the cities on the US East Coast, the other two were able to exit the south & north edges of the battle board after wiping out 26 steps of near-hapless American troops and AFVs.

This is a good one to play face-to-face with a worthy opponent, accompanied by copious amounts of beer, good salsa and tortilla chips! Also a great way to warm up to watch the 3rd game of the 2023 Baseball World Series! Go D-backs!

We salute and thank Alan Sawyer for dreaming up this, very-fun-to-play, extraterrestrial battle in 1938. Both, Orson and H.G. would be very proud of his effort! We give it a unanimous rating of 5.
