Has anyone out there tried running a Car Wars game on Roll20?

I have a few ideas on how this could be possible, but I am also interested on how others have handled it if so.

awesome idea. I have the original games. those old game books were the best.

Many an hour was spent building cars just to see them blown off the road lol. Running something like the old Truckstop campign would be great. There was apparently going to be a Kickstarter from SJ for a new edition following the success of OGRE, but I haven't seen it yet

I would be interested in something like this. I own a lot of Car Wars material from the 80's. What did you have in mind?

I remember reading in the forums that some people have played Car Wars on Roll20. I suggest using the search function.

Yeah, I did search, but the last thread I saw was around 8 months ago and I didn't want to necro it. Plus I was looking as much for a conversation about it with active forum users for various reasons, not just technical info. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Just looking at options and discussing possibilities, as well as gauging interest in a vague way. If there was enough it is something I would definitely like to work towards though.

I would be very interested in doing something like this aswell.

There was someone here that was running a game I think. I was thinking of it, but never got to it. I also just recently finally got my API script to work that allows you to rotate a token from any corner or midpoint. It works great. So I could create functions that would automatically do maneuver moves on a token. Haven't worked on it for a few weeks since I got the rotation all working though.

This user was running some car wars. PM him and I'm sure he will be happy to exchange info. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/users/158368/gary-l" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/users/158368/gary-l</a>

Here is some info on my rotation script. I'll probably do some work on it involving possible car wars maneuvers when I get some time. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/716328/helper-fu" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/716328/helper-fu</a>...

Did you have any ideas on how to automate the movement chart? I'm assuming Second Edition rules?
