MH44 - Division and restrictions
This will be Division 10 using the Classic Car Wars rules. This is the box set that was released about this time last year. You can also get a PDF copy from Warehouse 23 -
Anything that is in those rules is fair game except for dropped weapons of any kind or ramplates. Hand weapons ARE allowed and the cost of hand weapons, body armor, etc. must be part of the $10,000 you have for the car.
At the beginning, the eight gates will have the cars assigned randomly. You will be facing just ONE opponent at first in your little area. After 5 turns the 'tunnel' between your corner and the one next to you will open. You don't have to travel through it as you might be busy with your immediate opponent! Or it might turn into 2 vs 1.
After 5 more turns (Turn 10) the tunnels to the center area will open. You are not required to move directly there, but if you are NOT there when the tunnels close after 5 more turns (Turn 15) you will be disqualified.
The winner of the event is the last man alive in the center area. Since this is somewhat of an amateur night event you will have a driver only and you will be limited to 30 skill points spent however you would like.
Reflex rolls will be made - NOT fixed reflex (again, using Classic rules). I will be using the MADHAT spreadsheet to track ammo, damage, etc. and you are welcome to use it to design, but you are not required to. Feel free to use any tool you have access to.
I have NOT made a deadline for submissions as I am still waiting on all the players to confirm their participation, but you are welcome to go ahead and be working on a design and submitting. You will NOT know your gate position until all designs are in checked.
Here's a link to the page with the spreadsheet - the latest is madhat2015 - the one at the bottom...
Here's the map again. This is from L'Outrance and is 1/4 scale, so each of the 1/4" squares is actually 1". Tell you what - I'll add some cars to give you a sense of scale...
You'll notice that it is VERY close quarters, so combat should be fast and furious...
