Gaslands post-season

Postby Darkson (Simon) » Wed May 25, 2022 6:16 pm

It's all over - lessons learned, dents knocked out, drivers replaced.

If we do Gaslands again:
2 cars max per person per race.
Your team can have as many or as few vehicles as you want (remembering the 2 per race rule)


Spitballing: I know I enjoyed the Martian version (as I think Dave did) as laying multiple templates made the game feel dynamic. BUT! I did miss the rolling of dice (no thing is a sure thing).
I wonder if in a normal game you could place 3 templates of your choice (no more than 2 the same) but if you're not in the right gear when you reach a template your opponent can replace it
For example, I'm in gear 3, place a medium, medium, hairpin.
First medium, I roll dice, go to gear 4.
Second medium, I roll dice, but only drop 1 gear
Hairpin, I'm now in to high a gear, and my opponent can choose a template.

If dice rolls mean you get spins or slides, you work them out then continue your templates as chosen.

Thoughts? Obviously would need some testing.

Ban RC cars if only for the slowdown from the extra activations they bring.

I’m less keen on the multiple template stuff as a regular thing. Fun as an alternative though.

I could get behind banning RCs, but at the very least they should need a build slot and a crew from the 'firing' vehicle to control (so the crew fires one less gun).

A rule we got wrong at various times.

If you're shooting at a vehicle with multiple weapons then you roll all dice together, then they get to evade once (or once for normal weapons, then separately for special attacks) - also means you need to declare all attacks against that target before rolling.
