So I grew up in South England, spent 20 years in Scotland and more recently moved back to South England. I'm moving back North next year.

The wife's Scottish as is my step daughter. I'm the only one in the family who likes Haggis.

Pretty much all my ideas I've been putting here are to try and come up with an interesting a thematically different kind of game play for games in England and Scotland.

Twisty little lane-and-a-half country roads with 6-foot-tall 500-year-old stone walls 6 inches off either side? :D

Not a fan of haggis.

Come after my IRN-BRU, though.... >:)

The RAAC has a Web site with detailed information regarding the United Kingdom in the game world of Autoduel America.

The UK Web sites below do not have Car Wars game world information for the United Kingdom, however the owners of the Web sites might be interested in discussions regarding the subject.

The 2008 movie Doomsday has a few ideas that could be incorporated into a United Kingdom set in the game world of Car Wars.

This is what I imagine the road of a crazy small town duel to happen on.
It’d be difficult to get your weapons pointed at anything other than front/back!

The most recent Double Drum showed some wonderful collision-y mayhem cars can get down to on narrow roads bounded by walls.
