More Shattered Space Port City State Encounters - Post Apocalyptic Mars

Tonight's game found the players going deeper into the former space port. They traveled along the edge of the wall & spent a bit of time dining, shopping, re equipping & generally getting a feel of the city.
The inner wall of the former space port is actually the facilities for the city's air ships & commerce.

They got a chance to encounter some of the more colorful inhabitants of this place.

The Old Ruins 

The ruins are some 200 miles from where the party is currently staying 
Recently these ruins were uncovered by the sand storm that raged through the area. These ruins are of an old race Space Port. They contain very little in the way of artifacts & technology except for the energy rods that are still within them. These rods have a half life of 300 or more years. The whole place through is crawling with Death Worms -No Appearing 1-10 HP 12 Move 40" per round  Damage 1d3 with Acid From Each Attack. 
The Wells Invaders have detected the energy signs from the rods & 2 scout walkers have already been dispatched. The place also has a radiation hazard in high end of the spectrum. Lingering more then a few hours will cause a save versus poison to happen or the person will be very sick. This is followed by a save versus death. 

There will be a mutation check made after visiting these ruins 

The Invaders will be sending an assault time of  three manta ships to investigate the signatures. Some of the mutant species found in the wasteland are far more dangerous then any resistance these creatures encountered.
