The Daemon Mechanic
Car Wars Variant Rules from CWIN





A daemon mechanic article presents variant rules intended to replace a section of the current Car Wars rules. The term is derived from the action a Demon Mechanic (see "Magic in Car Wars" in Autoduel Quarterly Vol. 6, No. 2) performing a repair of a vehicle under the effect of the Hold Steering spell (also in "Magic in Car Wars" in Autoduel Quarterly Vol. 6, No. 2). Old rules are "ripped out" and new rules are "installed" in their place. If you are interested in submitting this type of article for CWIN, contact Michael P. Owen, the SWAT Webmaster.
