TWISTED METAL
IMPORTANT
DO NOT divide your units into multiple territories on the map. You may own no more than 1 territory, or there will be consequences.
In this game each player selects a vehicle from the 12 options. Each vehicle has special statistics which will allow you to pick up different power-ups to aid your character on the board.
Each player may make 4 attacks and 1 fortify per turn in any order. Players get 0 units per turn to place.
If you begin your turn on a Power Up location, you will receive units in your vehical's reserves, located off the edge of the board. Each vehical will receive a different bonus for each power up. The statistics are listed below. Each power up will fill the respective territory.
From your reserves you may fortify to your vehical on the board once each turn. You may return to attack to use the weapons you have loaded, or prepare for attack with your health upgrade.
If your vehical is destroyed, you will lose a life and repsawn on the board. Each player has 3 lives before he is eliminated.
The game is played with abandon on, and empty territories revert to neutral when abandoned. Every territory on the map section of the board is a capital city, so if you no longer contain any territories on the map, you are eliminated from the game.
This game can be played with anywhere from 2-12 players, and teamplay is enabled. Both attack and defense dice are 8-sided. Below are the vehicle statistics and an explanation of the fortify only pick-up system.
