Hi everyone Thought I'd introduce myself..... I played a LOT of Car Wars many years ago. From about 1984 to 1990, I was involved in at least one game all the...
People who don't like the new CarWars generally fall into three categories 1: Never played it, and are just whiny jerks. 2: Never played it, and wont because...

Hiya Badger, from another Limey, Bolton, Lancs. Glad to find another enthusiast this side of the Pond. First crack out of the box, never even seen the new...
... There's no design system in CW5; it was in playtest at the time SJG decided to shut down all CW5 development in 2003. The gameplay in CW5 is a bit too...
... I like both the old and the new Car Wars, but in different ways. The new CW is certainly easy to teach to new players. I ran it at KublaCon 2004 and...
I finally put my pictures from KublaCon 2004 up. Take a look: http://homepage.mac.com/adambwells/PhotoAlbum6.html I created a CW5-scale version of the Double...
Hi all. The new CW is sounding better having read some more posts. How come SJG has shut down development?? One of the things I liked about the old version was...
Well, I reckon I might give one of the starter sets a tryout. They're only a few quid, so if I hate it, I haven't lost much. Besides, sjg have brought me a lot...
Well, I reckon I might give one of the starter sets a tryout. ... My sentiments exactly, Badger, I have always liked SJG, they have a great "quick-and-easy"...
... Richtofen's War - broken movement system, but a great game to introduce newplayers to wargaming with. ... Forgot to mention another personal fave - ram...
A motorist after my own heart, Badger. My version, IIRC, was nicked from a commercial scenario and included a Hang Glider; even us diehard Gladiators have...
... submissions ... I always wanted to run a mini-campaign based on a race around the M25. I'd be up for throwing a few ideas around regarding campaign stuff....
Hi, I'm new to this group so please excuse me if I am re-hashing old posts. I have contacted several video game developers about the possibility of having...
you might want to take a look at this http://www.autoassault.com/ this game is currently in development. I think it is closely modeled after AutoDuel and even...
Well, right now Steve hasn't given out the license to anyone.... yet. I also would not count on AutoAssault or Richard Garriot doing a new Autoduel. While AA...
This is pretty close to what I "fantasized" about at one point. Before I got my head into programming, I considered writing up a proposal for a Car Wars game...
I've recently been asked to design an arena for Midville... something small, but tactically interesting. There are two requirements: One) It must include at...
Hi terminus Best way to make a jump 'tactically important' is to say you can't use weapons until you've done the jump. Maybe no dropped weapons, or not...
Hello everyone I've downloaded this (thanks for pointing it out). Does anyone have a list of what keys do what, as there's some stuff that doesn't seem to...
Just out of curiousity... which companies did you contact, how did you contact them, and what did you say to them? Are you a game developer, or just a...
Does anyone remember playing DeathTrack (PC, Activision and Dynamix, 1989) and Death Rally (PC, Apogee/GT Interactive/Remedy, 1997)? Does anyone remember...
Incredibly, I used to have Deathtrack for the PC. Terminators are about the only thing I remember about that game. I hated them because they were so hard to...
8 cars..... two small four car arenas connected by the jump? I like that idea, Badger. Wasn't there a Figure 8 arena in one of the old CW accessory packs? I...
... the old CW ... You're probably thinking of the Double Drum. That one was in the Arena Book as one of the one-piece pull-out maps. The other one was the...
New Boston was GREAT for pile-ups. There was one guy we could always count for for building a high-speed, rammer. One time, someone made a real mess by...
