Mars Attacks is a lame comedy. If you go to see it do NOT pay full
price.
It did have 50's style flying saucers, however. Below are stats for the 
flying saucers and a secret Earth weapon. :)

Systems:
"M" Beam Projector (4 arc)
Energy Field Intercepter (x4)
Marines (4 squads)

The "M" Beam Projector only has a range of 12" but does 6d6 acutal
damage 
(3+ to hit). The "M" Beam Projector may be fired twice per round at 
independant targets.

The Energy Field Intercepter is an independantly targeted, device. It is

deployed automatically when a large energy field (Nuclear (Std) or EMP 
missile, Wave (from Wave Gun), or Nova Cannon plasma projecter) weapon 
targets the ship. It will negate the weapons' attack on a roll of 2+ 
(1d6). After intercepting 1 rounds energy field it must return to the 
ship.

Marines are deployed when the ships land on a planet. The marines are 
equiped with environment suits. The environment suits are proof against 
high speed projectiles (ie. bullets). However, a 
heavy-weight-boxing-champion-class punch can crack their helments 
allowing in toxic oxygen atmosphere).

Weaknesses
1) The Martians have a strange lust for human females (considering that 
they are sexless). This should be exploited to full advantage.

2) Yodeling Cowboy music causes the Martians heads to explode. By the 
time of full thrust, this music is all but extenct. If an earth ship has

such a record (and player) it may be patched in to the communications of

the earth ship. Causes PERMANENT loss of 1 Fire Control per round of a 
selected Martian Saucer.
