Like the title says, these are my original notes for the Auto Arena board game. I am posting these here as a reference to bounce ideas off of and see if anything sticks. Much will certainly changes.
In a Nutshell
In a future where extreme sports have become the most popular forms of entertainment, this violent update to the traditional demolition derby has become the most popular of them all. Competitors drive cars equipped with weapons and armor in a demolition derby style event set in a hazard-filled arena until the last car is left standing. Components
1 circular map board 1 square map board A selection of car counters A selection of hazard counters Expansion Material
Ideas for game material that could be added later. Arena Pack: A pack of new map boards, cars, & hazards. Counter Pack: A pack of extra car & hazard counters for extra players. Racing: An expansion with a new map board and rules for oval track racing events. Scenario Pack: A pack of new scenarios; examples include amateur night, team play, etc. Unsanctioned: Guidelines for outlaw and unsanctioned events. Notes
- Auto Arena will be set up in a league similar to NASCAR; different towns have different courses.
- Modified Hot Wheels or Matchbox cars to represent the vehicles.
- A stock list of cars with stats will be included in the rules.
- Tournament rules or a league season with a championship would be a good addition.
- Maybe some rules for customizing cars?
It's time to put my thinking cap on and come up with MORE. I'll keep it to this thread unless so much stuff comes up that I need a new sub-forum. Off we go...

I can find these Hot Wheels cars all day long for $1 each here. I bought this pickup to serve as the first trial in mocking up a vehicle for Auto Arena. I'll coat it with primer, give it a new paint job, attach some armor plating and a weapon or two to see how it goes.
