Anyone know of any systems geared toward Mad Max style post-apocalyptic vehicle combat.

Only game system I know of that did good vehicle combat was Dark Heresy, and even then it was something like three pages. Vehicular combat is rare... give me a moment, I'll have a look

>>55371424
Okay, I had a quick look, turns out there's this obscure RPG that's exactly what you're looking for made back in the 80's called Car Wars.

Latest rules are 2002, so it might be worth a poke.

Atomic Highway

The rules are in the repository, and it has its own 1d4chan page.
Car wars, like a lot of other games from that decade, is less like a game and more like a game engine. It can be used for a lot of different things, but the details on how or why you should use the things in the books are vague or simply not present.

>Car Wars the Obscure RPG

Not a RPG kid. The RPG set in the dystopian future was called GURPS Autoduel.

Car Wars was the tabletop wargame played on paper mats with counters or matchbox cars. Hardly obscure it was very popular in the 80s.

Car Wars was a bit before my time. Also, I'm Australian, so it may have never been sold here.

Something which makes no goddamn sense since Mad Max was an AUSTRALIAN FILM.

The Games Workshop rip off of Car Wars was called Dark Future. Used matchbox scale (Roughly 1:64) cars. The rules are out there. The expansion was called White Line Fever.

You can make or buy bits to add turrets, guns, cannons etc to your converted match box cars.

Strike! has a vehicle supplement with vehicle combat roles and a "Fury Chase" system to imitate Fury Road-style session long chases.

You could try GorkaMorka...

>>55371497
cars wars seems a little too in detail for my tastes

>>55371502
this looks good actually thanks

>>55371424
Gorkamorka

OP do you want a rpg or a tabletop car combat game? That's the first question you need to answer for yourself.
>>
>>55371424
Atomic Highway or GURPS After the End (which unlike typical GURPS expansion SIMPLIFIES rules, rather than expanding them)
