Sherbert Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Hey guys, since there is not going to be a 9th age tournament this fall I was thinking of having another short campaign for the post apocalypse car game Endless Highways. It has been a little while since I have worked on the game, but I made some changes since the last small campaign play test. For those of you who dont know, I created a game that uses hotwheel cars set in the post apocalypse, so think mad max. The rules started out from a game called Warlands, but I ended up making so many changes to the rules that it became a completely different game. It plays like most campaign games where each car is kind of like a character that can get better gear, but also gets messed up at time goes on. Last time I had Loren, Jim and Christian as players and it was very helpful to iron out some of the problems. I am looking for 3-5 people who are interested in a short 4 week campaign, probably through November. The good thing is that the rules are free since they are my own and I have plenty of cars and models on foot so it takes no investment on the part of players. I will send you the rules and templates and you can read over them and make a warband. Then pick out the cars models to match what you have created. This wont be a narrative campaign like the huge 6 week one I ran over a year ago, its just a play test campaign. Anyone interested? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGraham Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 I love that game, and an excuse to get my painted models on the wastelands again would be welcome. However, I'm in and out much of this month and next, and can't commit to a 4-week campaign. I'd still love to get a few games in, though!

intrizic Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 This is an amazing opportunity to get into some amazing post apoc car combat Just make sure you build your lists for economy as well.......I might have focused a bit too much on theme, that said I had a great time crashing all types of dirt bikes into stuff and I big big recommendation for pipe terrain that the bikes can ride thru, made for some very entertaining game Sherbert has put in a lot of quality work on the rules as well, the game is super fun, STOCK UP ON D4s and an angle template 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rat_Catchers Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 Very down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherbert Posted October 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 I should also mention that the games are more skirmish sized and wont take the entire evening. So people could get a game in and still have time to play Destiny, sexwang, or whatever else is short. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fix Posted October 16, 2017 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 I'd be down for driving some shootscars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koyote Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Sherbert, I'll probably play as well. PM Kickstarted Devil's Run and is now looking to get rid of them. He thinks he has all the models LINKY I've offered to take them off his hands. I told him that I'd share with you. Do you have rules for big rigs?

Sherbert Posted October 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 there are not official rules for a warrig sized model, but I did have one as a boss in the final mission of the campaign that everyone tried to kill. I have probably close to 40 cars that are all modeled and painted up but I am always open to getting more bitz because they are a fun little diversion.

Sherbert Posted October 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 So I talked with Joey last night and he is also game so that makes for, Joey, Gage, Brad, Shawn and myself. We have room for one more player if anyone else wants to join in. Once I know for sure who all is playing I will give you guys the rules and we should aim to start on Tuesday November the 7th. We will then play 3 more Tuesday so our last game will be the Tuesday of the 28th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGraham Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 If it's starting in November, I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherbert Posted October 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Awesome sauce. Ill send you guys a copy of the rules and you can start looking them over. I would ignore the missions section of the rules because they are not complete and need a lot more work, hence the play testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathonicus Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 I’m in, though I’ll be gone the last bit of November. Can you send rules so I can start car building?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathonicus Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Sherbert and I played a game last night, and it was really smooth and fun. Nice streamlining of the rules. I can't wait to play more. Already laid out my cars and am going to be running the chop shop all hours to get ready to rumble! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashthedean Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Would you be able to post the rules in the thread? I'm not playing this campaign, but it'd be fun to take a look and play around with some warbands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherbert Posted November 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 Hey guys, just a reminder that we are starting next tuesday and that warbands starting points in 400. let me know if you have any questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fix Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 To clarify: we need to have 400 points of stuff purchased? That seems like a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherbert Posted November 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 [big bad swear word], I was looking at an older set of rules for some reason. I am sorry, starting size is 150. Thanks for mentioning something brad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherbert Posted November 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Hey guys, we start tomorrow. Make sure to bring 150pts warband and if you dont have vehicles, dont worry, I have you covered. It would be good to not only bring the normal set of dice, but also a bunch of d4s and some markers like beads for different things. Also everyone one who has a 45 arc for fantasy, please bring it as it will help with turning. Let me know if you have any questions concerning rules or what to bring.
