That's good, because cripes it takes forever and a half to get back up to a meaningful, 'yay I get to do something this phase' speed, even at +10mph/turn.

Car Wars hasn't been at the top of the priority stack lately, and we've been VERY busy, but that doesn't mean it's completely stalled.
The original intention of the first KS of Car Wars was to have it in two parts. First part was to have some books to intro to the new world (my hope was for a graphic novel, but that is just me) and then have a KS where we could see an Arena set and then other sets. Is there any info you can give us if formula is still intact? I am happy that is it still progressing but wondering if plans have changed (e.g. just one KS)

We have no info at this time. Once we have a handle on things -- and only then -- we will make an announcement.

Please don't let this become vaporware.

I'm in as well, I hope this long silence is not the death knell of Car Wars.

I do not think so. But from my understanding that they were burned on Ogre they may be taking their time. Which I do not fault them.

Good to hear. Given the stated plans of a likely early 2017 KS, and the vignettes in Pyramid, etc. the sudden total silence is rather ominous.

As reported:

http://www.sjgames.com/general/stakeholders/

So, this year we're setting only two priorities:

1. Complete the commitments we have made through three different Kickstarters. That means wrapping up Dungeon Fantasy (no matter what it takes), finalizing the Ogre Miniatures Set 1 project, and shipping Munchkin Shakespeare to Kickstarter backers on schedule. These projects override everything else.

2. Put the Munchkin Collectible Card Game to bed by sending the core game and first expansion to print before the end of the year. Please note that this is not "place the game in stores" before the end of the year. That would be an unrealistic goal, so we're instead planning for something that we believe we can accomplish.

Everything else is a non-priority, something to do after the priorities are under control.
