Do you play miniature wargames on the tabletop which feature cars shooting at each other, similar to Mad Max? |

It does sound fun and first time I ever heard about this was at a convention but no. Would only make me cry more over all the Matchboxes and Hot Wheels I threw away 40 some years ago. |

As a matter of fact, I just got back from NJcon where I played in a great Mad Max game put on by the Metropolitan Wargamers.

I used to play Car Wars.
Now our group does an occasional GorkaMorka game updated to things like Fallujah etc. |

Used to play Car Wars a lot, by that I mean we spent hours designing cars and then 20 minutes tops gaming out the battle. Said battles never lasted more than 10 turns – so 10 seconds in game time. |

Not any more. Used to play GorkaMorka, albeit a rather heavily modified version thereof. |

I35 every day going to work and back. I have built up an impressive imaginary kill list of ^@$^&&&&# drivers using my front and rear mounted gatlings. |
| KSmyth | 11 Jun 2017 3:20 p.m. PST |
No, but it kinda looks like fun. |

I used to play Gorkamorka. My group disbanded before I finished my Diggas. I loved that game. I still have my books. |
| zircher | 11 Jun 2017 7:42 p.m. PST |
Hey Waco Joe, we're playing the same game! I prefer twin MGs for the front and a mine layer in the trunk. *cough* Maybe some Car Wars back in the day, too. |
| Andoreth | 13 Jun 2017 12:50 p.m. PST |
Played a few games of Dark Future when it came out but most of the figures I bought for it are still unpainted. |
| Ghostrunner | 13 Jun 2017 1:59 p.m. PST |
Sorely tempted to get back into Car Wars, but after games like X-Wing I'm not sure I want to go back to that level of minute detail. The big draw for me is just being able to buy a bunch of cheap Hot Wheels cars, adding some greeblies to them, and maybe use a few obstacles. |

The only Car Combat Games I play is when I'm trying to get a Handicap parking place at the Y, Plaza or Mall !!  |
| huron725 | 21 Aug 2017 3:12 p.m. PST |
No. Not against it, just have never. |
| David Johansen | 22 Aug 2017 7:37 a.m. PST |
Loved Car Wars but not so fond of the various attempts to revive it. Still, laser targeting link on heavy rockets for the win. |

Used to but not for a very long time x42 |
| Thornhammer | 10 Sep 2017 2:02 p.m. PST |
Looking for a "sweet spot" system. Most of the stuff I look at is too fiddly or not fiddly enough. Got a ton of cars all ready to go, too. |
