"All quiet on the martian front" Topic

Hi,
I was wondering if anybody was/is using AQMF figures and GASLIGHT rules? What are your thought would this work well?

Jim

I would be if they weren't 15mm. I just don't care for 15mm, and most of my GASLIGHT stuff is 28mm already.
That bring said, I think the AQMF stuff would work fine with GASLiGHT. The only caveat being that GASLIGHT works best with individually mounted figures. But with a little finagling I think you could make thenAQMF bases work.

In fact, here is a battle report from a game pitting Brits vs Tripods using GASLIGHT and 25mm figures:

The Tripods could work well in 25mm or even larger scales.

The GASLIGHT malfunction rules might be very fun in the Martian invasion themed game.

Yes, the Sustain roll would be fun. Usually with more modern vehicles (combustion engine, or alien tripods) we recommend using higher Sustain numbers than are usually used with Victorian tech.

I was thining that a lot of the more outrageous weapons (e.g. the motorcycle units that grapple and tie up the legs Hoth Speeder style) would be well represented by applying modifiers to start/sustain, etc.

I'm planning all sorts of things for my tripods and assorted others including playing around with otewr rules and using them with 28mm figures (using the Parroom Station Cephalids as Martians)
