About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey gearheads! Ready to rev your engines and unleash some mayhem? Dueltrack is the supplement that really ignites the original Car Wars, adding an extra dose of adrenaline and twisted metal. If you dig the idea of turning your ride into a wheeled war machine, this pack is for you. It brings new goodies that will make races and shootouts even more intense: speedy race cars, gasoline engines that roar like lions, simpler but tough chassis, and even the classic crossbow for that 'low-tech' touch to your arsenal. Oh, and of course, more metal armor to take the hits! It's the kind of expansion that takes the base game and throws it into a whole new level of destruction and strategy. Perfect for those who are already Car Wars fans and want more options to customize their vehicles and dominate the track. Get ready to customize, plan, and, of course, blow up your opponents at high speed. Remember, in Car Wars, survival is the only rule, and with Dueltrack, your chances (or your enemies' chances) of becoming scrap metal increase exponentially!

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

7 questions
Do I need the original Car Wars to play with Dueltrack?
Yes, absolutely! Dueltrack is an expansion, so it adds content and rules to the base game of Car Wars. You can't play without it.
How many players can participate with this expansion?
The base game, Car Wars, already supports 2 to 8 players. Dueltrack maintains this flexibility, so you can have anything from a heated duel to a chaotic battle with a larger group.
Does the game's complexity increase significantly with Dueltrack?
The overall complexity remains similar to the base Car Wars, but the new customization options and added elements might require a bit more attention when planning your combat and racing strategies.
What types of vehicles and weapons does Dueltrack add?
It introduces race cars, gasoline engines, simpler chassis, metal armor, and the crossbow as a weapon. All to make your battles even more interesting!
Is the game entirely in English, or is there a Portuguese version?
The original game is in English. To play in Portuguese, you might need a translated spreadsheet or translated cards, as there is moderate language dependency.
Is it worth it for someone new to Car Wars?
If you've already enjoyed the base game and want more options, yes! But for those starting from scratch, it's recommended to fully understand the original Car Wars rules first.
What's the average playtime with this expansion?
The playtime remains around 45 minutes, just like the base game. Of course, this can vary depending on the number of players and the intensity of the battles!
