I might be able to help you out with the matt. I need to know the measurements for the road sections at Erny's part so that the roads match up.

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

I'm so in love with this, but sadly won't be able to make it to BOYL III

Any chance the rules and cards will be put into a PDF so we can have our own Berlin deathrace

Me and a mate already have started planning some vehicles

Him; a red Ork missile with missiles (anti-grav with missile launcher and supercharged engine)

Me; a Tzeentch attackbike with sidecar and psychotoxin gas (wheeled with heavy cannon, smokescreen and light mechine gun or cupholder)

Will of course add some pictures once the actual building begins.

I'll be sure to get you a nice ruleset at some point after Boyl

The Rough Rider / Twin Mustang is done (hurray!)

and the Baja-Bug is near finished too.
Actually, i am not sure if it can be used for the game as it is very small (crewed by Nurglings).

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

Very nice Niibl

I like the industrial grade bonnet hinges, the harpoon flags & the menacing grille..... awesome stuff!!

The nurgling mobile is pretty snazzy too. Although I'm not a fan of the "organic vehicle aesthetic" often used for nurgle kit building, I can still appreciate good modelling skill when I see it.

High five! (in a Borat voice)

 

[Niibl]

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

thank you very much.
the hinges were a pain to attach and the planned "nose art" turned into a domo-smile but it was still fun to build.

On the nurgle cart - It is possessed vehicle and therefore subject to such an organic exterior.
Sadly the captain has written no rules for possession...

Some amazing ingenuity and modelling skills in this thread.

Stonking!

Keep it up, chaps.
Effin' Brilliant!!!

 

[Bluey Zarzov]

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

Awesome to see these all painted up!

You should definitely put the Baja-bug in the race - even just to see it get mashed.

What would be even more hilarious is if it should win!


Papa Nurgle places his bet.

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

Loving these Niibl, excellent, I find that having a smaller vehicle running between other vehicles would be sort of fun so the scale doesn't bother me much. The idea of having a "wacky races" style of game seems to good to let any vehicle aside

 

[Bane]

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

Amazing! I can imagine that Nurgle bug leaving some slime trails in it's wake, creating chaos for the machines behind it.

 

[Count Von Bruno]

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

God damn it, this is going to be good.

Great work guys, that Nurgle Baja is f*cking awesome on a stick

 

[Captain Crooks]

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000

Okay folks, the rules have seen a complete overhaul - mostly streamlining, and the addition of Bloodbowl dice instead of the previous complicated system of opposed dice rolls!

Other changes are:
- armour values now replaced with a single saving throw roll.
- New weapons and upgrades including the SPEAR/HARPOON GUN courtesy of Niibl's incredible double-mustang build
- removal of the card system, which would be nice for 6-8 players, not so good for 12+ like we are looking at for this game!

Still to come:
- Rebalancing the races now that the cards are gone
- Adding details about various track features such as the 'Random Bonus Plate' and the 'Speed Plates'
- Pedestrian pick-ups and what they can do for you

Please everyone, check out the new rules, let me know if you see any glaring omissions!

Is it possible to sign up for this?? It sounds ace!

Also I was wondering is it going to be one big race, or a set of heats with a final? Sorry if that's been stated and I missed it

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000 RULES UPDATE! 6/7/15

I forgot I haven't shown my wagon in this thread yet:

Machine Guns, Flame Thrower, Ram, Napalm and Nox(Not for inhaling.. honest )

 

[Bluey Zarzov]

Re: [BOYL15 GAME] DEATHRACE 40,000 RULES UPDATE! 6/7/15

That's a nice chunky racing tank there Chico.

You're gonna need that Nox to keep up with me!

Sorry Chicory, but unless you do that thing we discussed in private with the hamsters, the bucket of baby oil and the vacuum cleaner, you can only have three vehicle modules. If i were you I'd drop either flame thrower or napalm as they are basically the same then choose whether you want to be rammier or faster

If I'd known it would get the kind of attention it has I would have run several sessions - as it is, it's just one race on Sunday morning and we're currently at close to 200% capacity so I'm not taking any more players at this time. Sorry!

But I'm allowed more because I'm Chico, an Ummm.. I have Candy in my van. Can't I just drop you and we call it even? hehe

Bollocks I just noticed you moved this from the Saturday to the Sunday, it now hits with me running my Oldbowl final day and the Underhive so I may need to drop out I'm afraid.

Ugh!

Chico nooooo! It was only ever on Sat for like a week till I begged Gaj to change it, Sunday morning is the traditional Wacky Races Massacre day, it's tradition! Because it happened once!

How big is the overlap? Maybe you can do a single 'death or glory' lap into the lava river, taking as many fools with you as you can. ..
