However, the alien invaders are also receiving reinforcements in the form of Stealth Martians, Martian Marines and the dreaded Flying Saucer. In addition to all these new miniatures we also receive an expansion rulebook featuring all of the new characters and units along with new scenarios in which to use them in. Let’s take a closer look inside the Humanity Resists boxed set.

Miniatures
The Martian Marines rank is also denoted by their armor. Whilst closely resembling the Martian grunts they feature shoulder pads along with more ridges around their leg joints. They also wield a rocket launcher as opposed to the grunt issued freeze ray. Finally for the Martian forces we have the Attack Saucer. The main body of the saucer consists of a single piece with a sprue of weapon options available. These include heat rays, freeze rays and improved comms. In addition to these you also get a choice of pilots, being able to choose from either a standard pilot or pilot commander.
The Novas Vira are also joined by two special characters Agent Jack Falco and Agent Natalya El.
These two formidable opponents prove that it's not just the Martians who have some hi tech kit with both sporting futuristic jump suits and weapons. The human forces also receive some transport in the form of the flatbed truck. This kit requires the most assembly out of the box but is still incredibly easy to do so. The truck can either be assembled as a Civilian or Military variant with the simple addition of a top mounted machine gun and guard rails. Finally, as an exclusive for the Humanity Resists set, you also get a Pilot version of Joe. This miniature can be used inside the Martian Saucer or even the Stompy Robots which will be coming soon.
As before all of these miniatures (bar the vehicles) come in single piece, colored plastic. The plastic of the infantry is not quite as hard as that seen in Mantics other plastic kits but it still pretty durable. Some bending may occur but this can be easily rectified with a little hot water. The miniatures really do look fantastic, especially the elite Martian units with the detailing on the Stealth Martians being especially nice. The Vehicles, while requiring some assembly, have quite clearly been designed to be simple to build. While glue is not necessarily required for most parts I would recommend gluing the truck together for sturdiness.
