Kickstarter – The Devil’s Run: Hell’s Highway Boardgame

Taking the “rolling board” mechanic from the 1986 Thunder Road boardgame and adding in a bunch of combat and maneuvering rules, the new Devil’s Run: Hell’s Highway project at Kickstarter brings a stand-alone game that can also work with last year’s Devil’s Run game (last mentioned here). My copy of the original Devil’s Run boardgame arrived recently, and yesterday I washed the resin car models in preparation for painting. When will I get to paint them? Unknown, but the way things are going I might have one of them painted by the time this new game ships next year.

What I should do is just use the 1/64 Jada Club Battle Machines toy cars (find at Amazon.com*) with the Devil’s Run boardgame rules and components. That would certainly be a hell of a lot faster than painting all of the resin car and motorcycle miniatures.
