Finally tracked down a copy of the War of the Worlds PC game and got these pics for inspiration in scratch-building etc. All pics show the A.B and C models of the vehicles. The C models being the largest in each example

"Finally tracked down a copy of the War of the Worlds PC game"

If you'd mentioned it, I've got one on a shelf here. I can't get it to run on any of the PCs I have. Which is a shame because they're probably now powerful enough to actually play it…

I love that game. The two sides have different resources they're after, the soundtrack is good, and the two sides' units aren't similar at all.

Yeah…I lent my copy to someone and they ran off with it. Sad too, it was fantastic. The subs are cool. Don't think I bothered to develop when I played.

It's hard to get it working on some computers but there are a few ways to work around it out there including a patch at the jeff wayne fansite.

I wish someone would make mole machines like that.

Nice artwork.

I wnat to get one of Tobsen77's new screw-propelled vehicles and mount a whopping big gun on the back for a self-propelled gun.
