races
Here are some cool ideas for different vehicle races I've come up with.

Try taking every vehicle you can lay your hands on and have a demolition derby. Bikes and anything with a ram value of 5 or under that had someone riding on it may have additional assault weapons, otherwise all vehicles have no armrament. Walkers are especially deadly as they would use thir own stregnth value to penetrate armour, while other vehicles have to run into each other. We also had a bunker in the middle of the table full of terminators with chainfists and storm bloters, and as soon as one tank broke open the bunker the termies moved about randomly attacking whatever they came in contact with.

Bike races are fun too. Play down an 8 foot table, and roll 2D6 for movement. A roll of doubles means the bike moves randomly that turn. You may also wish to invent rules for jump ramps, like it adds +D3 to your move and you go D3 inches into the air off the ramp. You may also have to take a skid test to keep the bike upright. Another cool thing I have done is have the riders get into fistfights on the bikes, and every time the rider of a bike is hit, he must take a skid test and as ALWAYS a roll of 6 causes the model to fall off. (if the model is "killed" by the attacker, he is really knocked out for the turn and may move normally next turn) If the model is knocked off the bike the bike moves in a random direction 2D6" and then falls to the ground. Your guy on foot could now cause trouble for others or get back into the race, or even start a fight with spectators (grechin are good spectators and represent the standard person, but throw in a few orks to symbolize the total psychopaths you see at every sporting event. If the model attacks the crowd then you could aslo roll a D6 to see their reaction. On a 1-3 they sit and laugh at the guy being beaten, on a 4-5, any spectators within D3 inches attack the biker, and on a 6 the entire crowd flood out onto the track. Move each group (id suggest putting them into groups of ten) randomly as if they were an out of control bike. They will attack any bikes or bikers they com into contact with, and must charge any model within their charge range.

Give these a try folks and see how you like them, then drop me a line if you have any suggestions for this page.
