The Kickstarter for Car Wars 6th Edition ended two and a half years ago, but then…. stuff happened.
So the game only shipped in the last few months, and I finally got my copy this week. This is a first look in the box, to see what I got. Playthroughs and painting videos may come later.
There’s a section of the Spinneyworld store with 1:64 scale accessories perfect for Car Wars and Gaslands if you’re interested.
After all the shiny cars of Fitted, here’s something more battered and worn. I’ve been meaning to do a Gaslands build for a while, and this ready beaten Matchbox Jeep provided the perfect base for my first one. There will be more.
I am currently flying through the Milky Way- trading, bounty hunting, asteroid mining and exploring- in Elite: Dangerous, the new version of one of the first truly great computer games. It was funded by a Kickstarter campaign, the first, and so far only, one I supported.
There may be a second Kickstarter that I’ll put money into, because Steve Jackson Games are planning one around Car Wars.
Elite and Car Wars were two of the things that took way too much of my time in my mid to late teens. I’m in danger of regressing.
Go on, you know you want to.
The rules to marbles. Because I found my marbles last night, though mine are of varying sizes so probably not right for the game.
