Car Wars Compendium Review, January 14, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Car Wars Compendium (Paperback)
The ultimate compilation of Car Wars material. This book features vehicular combat of all types (with the noteable exception of tank combat and submarine combat). Types of vehicles included are (but not limited to): motorcycles, compact cars, station wagons, pickups, vans, three wheelers, boats up to yacht sized, and helicopters. Design rules are included to make your own vehicles. Combat is done on a scale of one inch equals 15 feet with one second turns. All vehicles come with weapons and armor. Types of weapons include anything from machine guns to missiles to flamethrowers to lasers. Scenarios include anything from highway combats between two cars to helicopter attacks on other vechicles to arena combats (demolition derby with weapons). This games was one of the first designs to come out of Steve Jackson Games in 1981 or 82.
