Battlecars

About this board game

Battlecars is a futuristic driving and combat board game for 2–4 players, with games lasting around 90 minutes. Released in 1983, it turns road rage into a deadly contest of driving skill, gunnery, and survival.

In the arena of the future, other cars are more than traffic: they are targets. Arm your vehicle with machine guns and rockets, bring opponents into range, and prepare to unleash devastating attacks as you race through the battle.

Battlecars focuses on the combination of driving and combat. Players must handle the action on the road while looking for opportunities to strike, using the gunnery computer to set up a shot before squeezing the trigger. When an attack connects, cars can explode into spectacular fireballs.

• Futuristic driving combined with armed vehicle combat
• Machine guns and rockets for attacking rival cars
• A deadly arena where survival is the ultimate challenge
• Support for 2–4 players and approximately 90-minute games

The goal is simple but dangerous: stay alive while turning the vehicles around you into burning wrecks. Drive into position, wait for the next target to come into range, and decide when to fire.

Do you have what it takes to become a highway warrior? Only a game of Battlecars can answer that question. The setting is also supported by the Battlebikes expansion set, offering another way to extend this deadly futuristic world.
