""Robot War" - Tank Swarm City Fight" Topic

" Our next game of Robot War incorporates my old Mega Force toys. Launched by Kenner in 1989, they lasted only a year. The range included lots of large land battleship vehicles, huge aircraft and loads of smaller die-cast vehicles in about 1/285 or 1/300 scale. The 2 sides were V-Rocs and Triax, neither of which was specifically labelled as being goodies or baddies. They caught my eye at the time as being suitable as proxy models in games of Epic Space Marine. I got a few sets when they came out, a load more sets when they were remaindered in various toy shops, and a few more of the larger vehicles in recent years from eBay. We only used the small V-Rocs vehicles and a couple of tactical aircraft refuellers. This was also the first outing for my Lidl wargames mat (or "outdoor carpet" as they refer to it), even though I've had it for a couple of years. They have these every year for about £8.00 GBP and it's the ideal size for our dining table. I dug out my rocky plateaus to use too, it's also the first time I've had a chance to use them in a game…"

Very cool. I have some of the flying vehicles from that line.

I remember those. I bought a bunch for my son, they have been lost in time. They were very cool.

Good memories… (smile)
