Jeffro's Gaming Blog: Car Wars, Star Fleet Battles, Ogre, Battletech, and more!
Welcome!

This blog is dedicated to the Car Wars table-top game. It was initially released in 1982 in a nifty black "pocket box". It was a rare hobby shop back then that didn't have a rack of Car Wars expansion sets in zip-loc bags.... (sigh!)
Steve Jackson Games has released a 5th edition recently that is especially well designed. Few shops seem to carry it today and support for it seems to have stalled temporarily, yet it's still a really fun game to play. It may be that the Car Wars concept will appeal only to the generation that still thinks that Tron is a great movie, but I hope it will catch on again as the economy picks up.
Here are some links to get you up to speed:
