Janco Toys Forum

We have not done a Jancos Heroes this year. This needs to be fixed. I know there's talk of 1/35 gas lands but I don't know if it's out yet.

Though I have a few other idea's.....

Certainly up for general mayhem as we all prove that heroes we most definitely are not


Personally like the idea of something like a race. decent sized table, mark out an infield area that cannot be crossed or seen across, everyone gets a start point, first to complete say three laps wins, in either direction, indeed no need for them all in the same direction.

Up to you if you want fast, agile, armoured, armed etc.

Something like pulp alley or a simple role-play system, Dark Future would be fun but would mean making a suitable track.

Janco Wacky Races!

1/48, 1/32 or 1/35 scale type vehicles are not that expensive, could even got for 1/24, I doubt it matters much to be honest

Think I've got Dark Future somewhere scanned, Gaslands or similar though, just nice chunky cars/trucks/whatever, idiot proof rules and much silliness.


Alternative, multi-player 40k, with one change - an indestructible puck, say T4 but no save is on the table, starting in the middle, each player has a "goal" say 6" across, for every point of damage you do to the puck it moves 1" directly sway from whatever did it... Highest number of goals at the end of the day wins, of course you can (as this is 40k) also decide to rough up the enemy teams. Say 200 point forces...


Many such silly ideas are possible

I think gaslands is out in November, I have a copy of the beta somewhere though, or we could just make our own rules up

If it's a mad max thing I could be interested

Not sure what James is thinking but that was my general leaning, Colin has a whole slew of road vehicle kits in that could be suitably kustomized...

Just needs a suitably basic set of rules to go with it that allow the creation of a range of custom vehicles

Gaslands

But it's not out until 30th Nov

Sounds like thats one for next year year, it sounds interesting from the little I've seen.

Any other vehicle based systems out there that support custom builds?

I've got the rules for Dark Future (somewhere) which allows car, bike and trikes with a build system (doesn't include trucks though) but not sure the rules are really whats needed (they are fun though)

I'll have a look for the beta rules of gaslands.

Not sure about any other rulesets - could use gorkamorka

not played gorkamorka... it does sound "interesting" though

thinking something we can use with 1/32 or 1/24 scale vehicle kits (or 1/48 or 1/56 I guess, but Col has some very nice 1/32 scale stuff)
