Ain't seen no mother truckin' Gaslands thread for a while. Let's have one.Gaslands is the game of racing and shooting with converted diecast cars. It means you now own 100 Hot wheels you need to paint as well as those other 100 miniatures.
I want one of these. I have it in the monster truck version like the OP but would like the normal one
Does the paint on HotWheels/matchbox come off like acrylic paint? If i give some cars a SuperClean soak, will I be good?
>>93936179Dunno lad, I used wilko paint stripper myself, gloopy white stuff designed for walls and stuff.Give it a go. I find Gaslands very liberating as each car can be an experiment
Gaslands took off recently at my flgs, this is my wip warband, minus a few vehicles I haven't started on yet. Two performance cars, one with caltrops, a truck with a wrecking ball, another with a turreted flame thrower, 4 cars with a variety of weapons, a heavy truck with a turret mounted gatling (Bofors) and some other ro be decided upgrades, and a heavy truck that when done will have a harpoon, side mounted machine guns, a napalm dropper and maybe another gun.
>>93936284The closest to being finished, this car has a ram and a pair of MG's (probably play them as a single HMG) on a 360 degree cupola style mount, plus fuel and water containers in the back.
Track Dwagon that just came out looks really nice
>>93936131There's no thread because the game is fucking dead. Christ do we really need a new general for every single dead game that exists? Infinite, Trench Crusade, Battletech. The fuck is next? You gonna try to revive Warmachine. You literally have /awg/ already. It's fucking dead and could probably use your combined posts to make it slightly less dead.
>>93937781tc bugs me the most because they'll have these pointless threads that get a bump every time they're at page 9-10, with a few comments immediately after, then nothing until it's about to drop off the catalog. just feels super artificial
>>93937781Fuck off you crying little baby. Gaslands is /awg/ but it wouldn't be right to use the latest one to post hundreds of pictures of converted toy cars.Reddit is down the hall if you want people to neatly stick to their subpages. Twat.
This is coming out next year. My dad has a red MX-5 so I want to get one
>>93936179the chassis are metal so after dissasembling them by drilling out the tops of the rivets underneath just use paint stripper from the hardware store>>93937781>new generalthis isn't a general thread you retarded newfag cunt, it's just a threadplus gaslands is an almost $0 buy toy cars that you convert if you want, gotta be a real boring piece of shit to find it unappealing
>>93936179Acetone works the best, of all the things I have tried.
>>93936131I need to do another car, or perhaps a War Rig, one of these days
>>93936179I just spray the primer over existing paint
>It started as an idea>But I fucked up and tried to fix it>Then it kept getting weirder>Until it became a completely different idea
>>93939582KinoI got this the other week on clearance
>>93936131I've been thinking of making a top gear inspired team. Richard is in an old british taxi or mustang. James is in a rolls royace or cadillac or maybe a bus. What should Jeremy drive a lambo or ferrari? Should I put the stig in?>>93938286im gonna have to pick that up too.
>>93939999Checked They loved the red Toyota Hilux on Top Gear too.The Stig? Hot Wheels have had a Koenigsegg recently, or a Bugatti Veyron
>>93936179I just sandpaper em, prime them then paint them as normal, nothing has chipped yet
>>93936131Anyone tried that game? I've seen it in Wargame Vault, but there's not review anywhere, nor any playtest video.I'm really interested in a game about vehicular combat with hot wheels, but that's a bit less game-y than Gaslands.
>>93937487I saw this thread this morning, then later coincidentally passed by a dollar store and recognised that car.Well, shit, I guess I'm back to collecting toy cars then.
>>93936179I prime over it, I dont like the look of unpainted wheels/painted body>>93943711yeh bby
Twisted Metal
After stripping the paint on that one, I liked the look of bare metal so much I left it this way.Not sure how to add a little bit of weathering over it though
>>93947920And here's the car that's in the background>>93946862>I'm really interested in a game about vehicular combat with hot wheels, but that's a bit less game-y than GaslandsMy go-to game for post-apocalyptic car combat is Road Wolf http://www.ironhands.com/roadwolf.htmIt's a lot more "Mad Max" than Death Race 2000 (like both Car Wars and Gaslands are), but that's even better. It's free and simple, but still does the job very well, with still the possibility of customising your rides.
Twisted Metal Left the pic off
>>93936131I have some friends that started playing Gaslands, just as a "One-Time-thing" to try out one weekend. But now it's their go-to game to play on the weekends that they don't do RPGs. Every time I go over there, they have another makeshift arena or race-track built in their basement. I always meant to buy some hotwheels and join them, but I still haven't. The game looks like real fun.
>>93946894>Hotwheels>NetflixFuck I'm old.
>>93949706Yeah, I don't get it either. Is this car from a series?

>>93947299Hey! Where did you get these Aztecs in 20mm? These are pretty cool!I'm of the "Gauls torsos over WWII Germans bikers in 20mm" school.
>>93936179I just soak the metal parts in nail polish(the diluted acetone kind). Cheap and found in most stores.
>>93951072Hot Wheels Let's Race is a kids show on Netflix>Villains>Eric Bauza as Professor Rearview, a car-hating old man who seeks to destroy Hot Wheels City with giant animals solely due to his hatred of its heavy car cultureDoesn't sound like a villain to me lel, what is this propaganda
These threads always make me want to build more, but all my stuff is at my friend's house.
>>93951161They are from Cesar minis, I got a ton of stuff when my last was getting out of the scale. That barbarian is sweet, where's the motorcycle from?>>93953466Well, obviously you need to ride on your friends house and burn it to the ground.
I wish I'd been into toy cars before like 2020. So many things lost to time now. >>93951161>I'm of the "Gauls torsos over WWII Germans bikers in 20mm" schoolThis is a genius idea.
>>93936131looking at the rules... they seem more bloated than most miniatures combat games. whats the game actually like, to play?
>>93955699>Osprey blue book>BloatedNigga what.Gaslands is a lot of fun and quick to get the hang of. I've played with my girlfriend a few times, and she's an ADHD riddled zoomer who got bored when Furiosa was taking too much time to kill the baddie at the end of the movie.I have a single issue with this game, is that it's a bit *too* game-y because of that, where a lot of stuff makes no sense in-fiction but is there for gameplay purposes.
>>93955699The fuck you're playing that fucking Gaslands looks bloated?
