Anyone heard of this? Came across it yesterday and bought the rulebook and wow I’m hooked! It’s basically mad max with hot wheels and matchbox cars that you paint and add bits to to make them look post apocalyptic. There’s a whole bunch of tutorials etc online but yeah I’ve found another game to play and it’s as cheap as chips.

That actually looks really cool! @Stephen, I don't suppose you still have your matchbox collection?! 😁

I've seen people building and using ork truks and stuff for this. Looks awesome!

I reckon this could definitely be scaled up for a 40k destruction derby style game! Orks would probably be doing it for fun anyway!

Not started reading the book yet but it’s quite a hefty tome at over 150 pages.

Ouch. Was hoping itd be quite easy to learn and play. Is alot of it fluff or not? I was surprised when I got the 8th edition 40k book and the first half was all fluff. In fact only about 8 pages of actual rules. Rest was scenarios lol

I’ve just checked and the book is 192 pages with 4 pages of fluff 😂 and the rest is rules and templates. 😳

At £14, and with no requirement to buy models (aside from maybe a cheap eBay haul of matchbox cars) I think that's pretty good!
If I ever actually played with people then I would have one on the way already 😂

I'm genuinely interested to know if it could be scaled up though...
