Well, last night we played two High Octane games again, I played my cousin FM and Braxandur played Malebolgia, here's the report of my game (unfortunately I don't know the names of FM's warriors and AFAIK his vehicles don't have names).
In this game I chose to attack a convoy owned by FM. FM deploys his defenders first and places all three Loot counters in his brown truck. I deploy my four vehicles and warriors on both sides of the table spaced quite far apart so I always have a vehicle ready for attack no matter how far FM moves.
I get the first turn and my first attempt is to ram Virgin Steele (the stripped Volvo) into the brown truck, but my turn fails and I move straight in front of the blue jeep. Persecutor (the guy with the red/white striped spandex pants) tries to board the jeep but fails.
The blue jeep rams Virgin Steele and Peter Buzz, the other occupant, is knocked out of the game. The jeep also tries to run over Persecutor, who suffers one wound. The blue jeep fails his net thrust move and spins. The rest of FM's gang gets a headstart, especially the green truck and the white car. The brown truck tries to get ahead but doesn't get very far.
Butch, the driver of Virgin Steele makes a complex move and shunts the brown truck, the fat guy is knocked out of the crew compartment. Butch tries to run him over but fails.
Down the road Carnivore (the tracked vehicle) aims for a T-bone on teh green truck but falls short, so Grinder (the guy with the chainsaw) and Pantera) the girl) board the white car instead. Unfortunately Grinder, despite his killer reputation and chainsaw, is kicked out of the car and out of the game. Ozzman (with the scatter gun) fires a shot at the green truck and scores a penetrating hit but does no actual damage.
Meanwhile, Fast Taker (the driver), driving Jag Panzer (the Jaguar) is ready for the attack...
He tries to ram the green truck head-on, but loses control of the vehicle in the last split second. Lunging at the truck in high speed the truck can't swerve away, and Jag Panzer collides head-on with the truck after all.
Both vehicles are immobilised and Jag Panzer is leaking fuel. Popefister (the passenger in Jag Panzer) sees this as an excellent opportunity to board the green Unimog, but fails.
In the next turn the fat guy boards Virgin Steele en knocks out both the driver (Butch) and the car. Popefister gets shot down and Pantera gets kicked out of the game in a viciously one-sided catfight. The brown turck makes a dash for the finish line with the loot, and while my fourth car is ready for attack in it's flank my leader decides it might be better to lick the wounds and try another day.
