Hi all,
anyone know where I can get a copy of this? I'm only interested in the rules.
I also need to know what scale this is in.
Thanks.  :D

As I recall, its was a 25mm (ish) game, which for fun for the first few game,s but then got a bit routine

I disagree with Tas. It had a longer life than a few games. It was 'matchbox scale', which was handy! It had a good, interesting and solid set of mechanics, and some great scope. I still rate it as one of the milestone games from GW.

I have several copies, I could do something for you in January?

Scale was indeed matchbox, the infantry I have for it are 15mm? possibly.

Rules, supplement, lots of White Dwarf stuff, art by Carl Critxlow of Thrudd fame.

Yes, it's .. like 15mm. I had the games, but sold off the rules and most everything but the weapons for the cars, the box and card roads ... Got some old WDs with ads and things about it.

Thanks guys:
Hena - useful site - looks like someone is keeping it alive. Thanks :)
Chris - thanks - it looks like I might be getting a copy, but I'll keep this in mind.
Scale - umm, I've heard the matchbox car suggestion. Clever idea. Would it work in:
6mm
10mm
15mm
28mm?

I must be confusing it with something else, the game I recall was definately larger than 15mm.  Sorry!

You might be thinking of Car Wars.

Hi Guys,

It was "Matchbox" scale which is 18 to 20mm.

So many "scalecreep" 15mm figures work with it.

If I hadn't done Car wars in 6mm, I would have done it.

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.
