I wish someone would do (somehow) the 1980's Car Wars tabletop game, a computer version, multiplayer or not. I have tried many near misses, and a few real-time cars-with-guns games, but nothing really scratches that turn-based Car Wars itch for me. It will never happen because Steve Jackson Games is very protective of their IP, and even if they produced the game themselves, they have changed their original game beyond recognition, so the result would also fall short of the mark. And they'd charge about 3x what it would be worth.


I've wondered if Car Wars would be much more fun if it were computerized, removing the tedium.
