Hi everyone, I've become quite taken with Eureka's new Mad Maximillian post-apocalyptic (in 1934!) auto racing and combat game. Part of the joy of a game like this is building and customizing the vehicles, and I understand that is the direction that Eureka wants to go with this. With that said, however, I have some questions.
Going through the Rulebook, I'm noting a few examples of vehicles that clearly either aren't made by Eureka and cant' be customized with Eureka parts. I've also checked with 1stCorp, which sells vehicles from roughly the same time period, and I'm drawing a blank.
Example 1. The White Lightning, featured heavily in the illustrations.

As the caption says, WHO MAKES THIS?
Example 2. The Green Machine.
Now, I see what Eureka is about here. You buy a stock vehicle from one of two designs:
Either the roadster or the roadster with a gunner cockpit, in this instance. Then you buy a new front end or pipes or some other customization from the customiztion kit. The problem I have is the front end in the rulebook.
See how it's gently rounded with two machine gun slits?
Where is that in the customization parts pack?
Well, perhaps…. but it's cleary not identical with the rulebook picture. Close enough, I guess, but I'm not getting where to put the guns.
Case 3, the Firebug (I think?) anyway, the flame thrower car. It's quite visually striking, especially with the photos taken with the cinematic flame effect. I'd like to make something similar, but once again, I'm stymied.

Those wheel fenders in the back don't appear to be in the customization parts pack, unless I'm missing something.
If anyone (especially Eureka) can shed light on these, I'd appreciate it. I'm really enjoying this one a lot.
Here's my humble attempts at my first roadster. I'm looking for some period decals.
Not bad for a model build with no instructions!
Ciao for now,
Walt
