Diecast Demolition
Sports have changed over time. At first¸ deadly competitions gave way to events in which rules and technological advances were designed to protect competitors from serious injury. Eventually¸ robots replaced athletes and engineers became the new competitors. As time went on¸ the popular appeal of spectacular conflict as entertainment led to a form of mechanical combat in which the tools of disaster became bigger¸ faster¸ and more devastating. The near future is the era of... Diecast Demolition. Competitors design armed and armored vehicles¸ putting their trained robots behind the wheel for competitions of motorized mayhem. The game itself is resolved with less advanced technology¸ using toy cars¸ rulers and protractors¸ and six-sided dice. This is what we call a thrift or scrounge game. We give you the rules and you scrounge up the rest of the items you need from your house or at a discount store. What You Get: This PDF game booklet explaining how to play the game.
