At least, they could be Martians and, well, there's not really a lot of them, more of a recon rather than a full,scale invasion...
And it gives me a chance to set up a totally unrealistic city as well as giving those flying saucers a run out.
So firstly set up a 'city', then gave it a garrison. Basically an armoured battalion, infantry battalion and supports. Except that I haven't finished painting the infantry so they've been represented by light GEVs. Which is why they are sitting on the top of skyscrapers.
The Martians started off with 6 saucers. Dice roll of 3 or more for each saucer to 'arrive' meant should average 4 arriving, 3 did. It's assumed the others were shot down or something. Originally I was going to have them arrive randomly over the whole table but decided later on to just have them arrive on the front - two stage method, 1,2 left of board, 3,4 middle, 5,6 right for each group of 2 saucers (one group didn't arrive!) then split that segment into 6 to see where in each segment they landed.

Overview of the table - the blue saucer is just off picture on the bottom right side. |

Main initial battle area showing where the saucers landed in relation to the first line. I will dice to see where that second green swarm attacks - follow friends or head for the tanks. |
 |
Not sure that this infantry squad is happy about the landing site... |
 |
This one should be interesting. |
 |
View of the second/main line - doubt that they will see much action... |
