Brik-Kar Wars?
Any old timers or youngins ever play CarWars by Steve Jackson Games?
I have been using Brik Kars, weaponized Speed Champions Lego series.
The Kars are like 1\30 scale....pondering minis, maybe 1\150 scale...with post apocalyptic large battles a la The Road Warrior. Thoughts? Comisseration?

Re: Brik-Kar Wars?
Sure, Car Wars was pretty great.
Might I suggest you check out Gaslands if you haven't already? Super awesome game.
Anyway, yeah, I was going to run a Brikrace kind of event at some point. Just never got around to it.

Re: Brik-Kar Wars?
Gaslands looks pretty cool.
It seems to borrow heavily, but what car based game wouldn't?
I would love to have a duel to work some kinks out of gameplay and rules.
Ferrari F40 with skilled driver...I kind of want to adapt the old CarWars sheet for Brik-Kar Wars....thoughts?

I'm too swamped to dig into the mechanics of it myself now but I'd love to see what you come up with.

Re: Brik-Kar Wars?
I will post my Brik-Kar Wars rules here in the next few days. Unfortunately, I can only post the car list on Discord. I am hoping to host a game soon.

Re: Brik-Kar Wars?
I played Carmageddon and Mario Kart, does that count?
Which reminds me, LEGO Friends has a sub-theme that's a competitive kart racing game complete with upgrades like stud launchers, spikes and a turbo engine that runs on bio-fuel (assuming from the plants in the device). I bought both the race track and tuning garage sets when they were on sale and I'm surprised to see a lot of useful pieces and bricks.

Re: Brik-Kar Wars?
I did a car based forum battle a while back but I only got the first few turns done, here's a link if you're interested.
