You can check out my blog to see how I did it: http://carmensminiaturepainting.blogspot.com/ The turret and waist guns all traverse. (The tail and forward guns are fixed; though, with a little time, I could have gotten those tailguns to swivel, I think. I was impatient and wanted to finish this car.) (All the cars I'm converting for death racing/battling are 1959 and earlier models; in my background, the apocalypse occurred in 1959, and I'm trying to keep the car models in line with my setting. So finding a '59 limo made me happy for sure!) Edited by Evilcartoonist, Sep 1 2012, 05:51 AM.

I use a mod of the Charioteer rules by Two Hour Wargames; it's a great game but doesn't lend itself well to good batreps (it gets tedious' "A passes B, C Shoots D, D Bashes C, E drafts D" etc.) I have written a short narrative inspired by a game. You can see it in the Storytellers forums under, "Brother Pilot and the Conception of Saint Buick."
