Holy Harpoon Gun!

Last night concluded the very first play through with Garage Cards. I have to say it is a bit surprising when the game that has only existed in our minds works and turns out to be loads of fun.

That also means that the Garage Cards are petty much in their final phase. We have Weapon Cards, Part Cards, and Crew Cards; all of which add modifiers to your Vehicle Card allowing for all kinds of great combos. (Like the ones Jeff used to win the game!)
The game is set up so that the person who reaches a certain point value is the winner, which means the Tank and the Station Wagon (slow, high armor) can win just as often as the Formula and Motorcycle (fast, low armor). You earn points by blowing up your opponents or by completing a lap on the track.
Last night we played to five points, Jeff won, but he got 2 points for laps and 3 for blowing up other vehicles. I had 4 points at the end of the game, but only 1 of those was for completing a lap, where as Jordan, our third player, got 3 of his total points, 4, by completing laps.
It all just depends on how you want to play.

I also have a bit of exciting news. Our board is on its way! The board we are playing on above (^) is the one I made out of card stock, foam, and my soul. The one we are getting on Wednesday (hopefully) is made out of wood and is a bit newer version. We are all VERY excited over here.
