Description

[Edit] [History]

The Game simulates the legendary world of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Barsoom. Players are involved in Barsoomian epics in the role of one hero or one of his companions, and strive to perform as nobly as those heroes of the past. There are evil villains to be met, Martian wildlife to be tamed, great treasures unique to Barsoom to be gained and lovely lasses to be wooed and won.

Players do not strive for victory points, but for greater glory, high romance and their attendant acclaim.

There are two major parts to the game, the Dueling game and the strategic game. Man-to-man combat, and then the campaign type game (Strategic) where players take on the roles of heroes and villains, a delicate blend of negotiation and action is needed to succeed in this sci-fi epic.

3 John Carter: Warlord of Mars Addenda - Nov 1979 (PDF format)
JohnCarterAddenda.pdf
I've scanned and extensively cleaned up the Addenda for the game. For those missing this detailed 2 page addenda you now have it! Also enhanced some notations on the map addendas. Scan at 300 dpi for quality printing.
1 Solitaire Rules for SPI's John Carter of Mars
johncar1.doc
These are my solitaire rules for SPI's John Carter of Mars. The game essentially is a two-player solitaire game already, these rules just adapt the villain side of the equation for solo play and allows one to quest heroically alone as a true Warrior of Mars should!
1 City Directory of Characters
JC_Directory.pdf
The original game lists the characters by city by just their counter number (obviously to save space). I have expanded that list to show the character's name, and counter color, as well as their counter number, so as to speed up finding these characters when needed.
