"The Rubberway Arena" at Milleniumcon

One of our local gaming conventions just came and went. I ran another Car Wars event which turned out quite well. I made a miniature version of the Akron Ohio "Rubberway" arena. I like the theme I have created the last two years, both years I have done 3D versions of actual arenas listed in official Car Wars books. I keep thinking about doing the Armadillo, but it seems daunting, maybe next year.

Lots of Car Wars Gaming

Arthur made it to Austin and he and Phillipe and I got together a couple of days and managed to get in 5 games of Car Wars. We did four arena events and one raid on a big rig.

Three people playing Car Wars is a good number. I've never controlled more than one car at a time, but since we were all fairly experienced players we controlled two or three in all games. I like the feel of this as you are always in the action.

This ended up being an all time favorite weekend of Car Wars gaming for me. I got to try a highway scenario, had my first event in the Double Drum, saw how cycles work, and Arthur gave me a few maps that he created. I will post on the maps coming up, these things are incredible.

Below is a link to the Arthur's writeup of our Double Drum arena event.
