So, ran another game of "Let Them Eat Dust" my sedan chair racing game at the club. Introduced a new terrain type – hairpin turns. They worked great, we had one player really slam into the wall. But the random terrain generator put 99% of the terrain in the first third of the course. Made for a very odd game. In future I'll split the deck into 3 or 4 piles and seed each pile separately.

It was great fun and I'm pleased with the core game. We did add one last idea – event cards you can hold on to and play at a later time rather than immediately.

Sadly, I forgot to take pics!

What are you using for figures?

Once upon a time Black Hat 25mm models. I have 9 of them (6 painted). I sell them in 15mm still:

As for rules….my own.

Basically the track is made up of "spaces." Each has a random terrain card that you flip as you go. Some spaces are clear, some have various hazards and obstacles.

Players may ram, block and whip each other.

Here are some shots of terrain tiles in progress:

I need to take pictures of a track layout and game in progress.

Mark;
John the OFM would love this.

If you could, please email me at epturner29@aol.com and if you could let me know the rules, I know John would love these.

He's pretty much a 25mm guy, but our mate Roger is all about 15mm. So I'll pass your link onto him.

Cheers;
Eric

Hi, I for one and Im sure many more would also be interested in seeing the rules.
Any chance of sharing please?

Once I have them polished up I will definitely share.
