In the Three Musketeers range from Black Hat they have Sedan Chairs:

So I am working on a set of rules for Sedan Chair Racing. I have my figures and they are my first project for January. I intend to eventually do two sets – one with historical looking coats of arms from various imagi-nations, and a second set of chairs done up Nascar style covered with stickers and big numbers on the roof.

But I need a good name for the Sedan Chair Racing rules. Suggestions?

Mark I love this idea!
You could have a game of Death Race at the Bastille with blades, spears and spikes!

How about:
White wigs and red necks.
Eat cake or eat dust.
Bastille day at the races
Lazy on a sunny afternoon.
Faster boys, faster!
Watch the road fool!
SCR.
Run you tarts run!

How about:

- Gun is Good, Sedan is Evil
- Zombie Chair Races
- Vive las Edan!

I quite like "Sedan Chair Racing" the concept is wacky enough that a straight name works for me.

Love the idea, EC – I agree with Fred – Sedan Chair Racing is just wacky enough on its own to attract attention. Although, you could go with the NASCAR theme and offer us the "Official SCRL Miniatures and/or Board Game" so that in the comfort and safety of our own homes, we can replay the greatest Sedan Chair Racing League match-ups that were ever run!

Don't forget to slap a Dr Scholl's sticker on the sedan chair. True racing vehicles gotta have corporate sponsors…!
