Lots of old Car Wars stuff......what do i do with it?

Quinnlander · 09-14-2010, 10:42 PM

Ok, nobody get mad but, I have to admit I have never played Car Wars. It looked really interesting so I bought a box full of stuff a while ago. Bottom line is that I really don't have any interest in it anymore but I appreciate gaming in general and want it to go to a good home. Anyone interested?

I have:
Car Wars the pocket game (The box with the rule book, and separate sheets for weapons and maneuvers)

Sunday Drivers supplemental pack (The box with the rule book and the maps)

Boat Wars supplemental pack (The box with the rule book and the maps)

Truck Stop supplemental pack (The box (the sticker came off the front but it is in one piece and in the box) the rule book, the map and an Auto Duel Quarterly pamphlet)

Car Wars Deluxe Edition box (Rule book, 5 maps (truck stop, midville (2 piece), armadillo autoduel arena (2 piece)), a bunch of road sections including one with a helo pad and a "deluxe road sections set 3: straights, several bags of markers and manuvering templates, and a pamphlet for the Armadillo Auto Duel Arena expansion set)Also in the box is an Uncle Alberts 2038 Calender

Duel Track Deluxe Supplement (Rule book, a lot of counters and a couple of road sections set 1 and set 2)

Tanks (Rule book, markers, maps and a Steve Jackson Fall/Winter 1990-91 catalog (for the serious collector type!))

eBay?

or you could just send it to me ...

PM me for an address to 'get rid of it' ...

Why would anyone get mad at the nice man with the Santa Sack full of goodies.

If you had said that you had just burned it all, then maybe we would have been upset ;)

Wow quite a collection. I'd say store it under the stairs in case you want to play in the future!
You have no interest now, but the idea must have intrigued you at some point to have purchased all that to begin with. It'd be a bummer to be one of the regretful players who had a ton of cool stuff, gave it all up, then got really fired up about the hobby.

I would gladly take it off your hands, I have my sons wanting car wars stuff themselves so they can build cars and play against dad. They are 18+ now and would take care of the books well.

I also know some active players who would be interested.

FWIW, my recommendation would have to be eBay. I haven't been following CW stuff on there lately, but my guess is that you'll want to at least separate the Uncle Al's Catalog From Hell from the rest and probably want to break it up some more.

Hope this helps.
