    Council of Five Nations 2019 – The Big Push

    Saturday afternoon brings us to 1918. The war is raging but obvious in the direction it is going. Then something strange happens. Metal cylinders fell from the sky all over the planet but mostly concentrated in Western Europe. The war came to a standstill as the warring sides quickly realized the situation, the world was under attack from Mars!

    Entente and Axis called a truce so they could join forces to battle the larger threat.

    The scenario has 2 Locust tripods, 6 objectives and 3 aircraft.

    German and French fly side by side to confront the Martian menace.

    Not a good idea as a heat ray flashes out and sears the Siemen-Schuckert. (A BOOM in T&T is half your starting damage, so 7 damage for the SSW D.III)

    Martians and aircraft both have difficulty attacking each other but the Martians have other objectives in mind. Destroying airplanes is not their priority.

    As soon as the Martian destroys the last town is heads west towards more important targets.
    It doesn’t get far and is destroyed before it can leave the area.

    As the Martian didn’t get off the board it is a human victory. All 6 towns have been destroyed so it was a costly victory. Earth cannot survive if this is what it takes to win.

    Let us know how it goes. I read through the solo rules but haven't had the time to give them a run.
