Car Wars - Deluxe Edition

ADD TO WISHLIST >

On the Highways of the Future, the Biggest Gun Has the Right of Way!

Car Wars is the game of combat on the freeways of the not-too-distant future. Choose your vehicle – complete with armor, power plant, suspension, even body style – then take it out on the road. You'll come home an "ace" or you'll crash and burn. If you survive, your abilities will improve, and you can accumulate money to buy bigger and better cars. Advanced rules let you design your own cars, cycles, three-wheelers, vans, trucks, 18-wheel tractor-trailer rigs, buses, boats, hovercraft, even helicopters!

Car Wars – Deluxe Edition includes a 144-page rulebook, the Car Wars Compendium, for building, arming, and driving your own vehicles; full combat rules, including an introductory "quick start" version; and all the skills you need to create your own "autoduellist" character. Here are all the rules from the original Car Wars game and many of its supplements, edited and reorganized, plus sections on off-road travel, gas engines, jumping and falling, and more!

Car Wars – Deluxe Edition also gives you hundreds of full-color counters, a giant 32" × 42" map of the fortress town of Midville, a 21" × 32" map of a fortified truck stop of 2048, a 21" × 32" map of the Double Drum Arena, improved road sections (straight and curved), and two "turning keys" that make maneuvering easy.

Car Wars has been named to the "Ten Best Games of the Year" by Omni Magazine. It won the Origins Award for Best Science Fiction Game, and has several times made the Games Magazine "Games 100" list!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
