Car Wars is a game featuring freeways of the future in which the right of way goes to those with the biggest guns. Players choose their vehicle - complete with weapons, armor, power plants, suspension, and even body style - then they take them out on the road, either to come home as "aces" or to crash and burn. If a driver survives, their abilities improve and they can earn money to buy bigger and better cars. Advanced rules let players design their own customized cars, trucks, and cycles.
