I made it especially and sent it to France so he could compete on my behalf. Now it's back in Oz helping me playtest the Deathrace rules and unless i get some inspiration and a lot of time it will probably come to England with me later this year to defend it's title at BOYL15. <br /><br />The renegade car is a Lindberg models 1/35 Chevy Monte Carlo. Scale-wise its a terrible fit with 28mm figures but it looked good on the track.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and I'm glad you enjoyed the write-up! Stay tuned for more Deathrace action soooon!Captain Crookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13731334952415370890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6755039479705993906.post-72785543768377186292015-03-04T00:23:51.277-08:002015-03-04T00:23:51.277-08:00Just chiming in to applaud Captain Crooks on the s...Just chiming in to applaud Captain Crooks on the sterling effort he has made to put this together, and for being an entertaining and patient game-master. It was an honour to lend a hand running through the game to help tune up the rules, and probably about as close to attending BOYL as I'll get. I don't know how the cultists managed to pull off this win, additional limbs? To paraphrase the greatest driver on Earth, Frankenstein "Winning- it's the only standard of excellence left."

That won't happen again!<br /><br />As you already stated, the track tiles look great, your wife is quite the hand at terrain making. Well done to Mrs Crooks :)<br /><br />Is it just me, or is that Killdozer vehicle the one & the same that Asslessman built? I could have sworn I saw him build it? Or am I just having a senior moment? And the human renegade vehicle, do you know what vehicle it's based off? And the scale? Sorry for all these impertinent questions Crooksy, my inquiring mind won't stop bothering me ;/<br /><br />It looks great to see all those uniquely individual vehicles duking it out. Thanks for turning the mayhem into an enjoyable read.<br /><br />Cheers.Mr Papafakishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449586265828153638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6755039479705993906.post-67978914295181405102015-03-02T04:17:31.030-08:002015-03-02T04:17:31.030-08:00Policeman: "where did the bad man touch you s...Policeman: "where did the bad man touch you son?"<br /><br />Me: "Sir, right on the tip of my Killdozer sir..."<br /><br />Policeman: "Killdozer... is that what you call your... little guy?"<br /><br />Me: "There's two little guys sir.
