RASKOLL 3000 – WASTELAND RACERS RULEBOOK
RASKOLL 3000 – WASTELAND RACERS RULEBOOK v1.3
PROLOGUE: A MESSAGE FROM THE A.I. COUNCIL
The wasteland is a crucible of data. We, the Raskoll 3000 A.I. Council, have analyzed every variable: the velocity of your war-rigs, the trajectory of every thrown harpoon, the entropy of chaos itself. This rulebook is not a mere set of instructions; it is our predictive model, a perfect framework to contain the calculated mayhem we call a race. Adhere to these parameters, and your survival is statistically probable. Deviate, and your demise will be logged for our records. The game has begun.
1. Introduction
Welcome to Raskoll 3000, a post-apocalyptic tabletop racing and skirmish game.
In this world, gasoline is gold, scrap is power, and survival means racing harder, faster, and meaner than your rivals.
Build your War-Rig. Race across the wasteland. Blast enemies. Drift corners. Smash through hazards.
Only the fastest and the fiercest will survive!
2. Components
Miniature vehicles (any 1:64 Hot Wheels/Matchbox scale, or scratch-built rigs)
1 ruler or measuring stick (inches)
Blast templates & skid templates (provided in printables)
Hazard tokens, damage tokens, and scrap tokens
Dice (1d6 minimum, but more recommended)
Track segments or terrain
Random Event Deck and Tactical Card Deck

Win by being the first across the finish line, the last rig standing, or by achieving a special victory condition. Use your wits and your cards to outsmart your opponents.
4. Turn Sequence
Each round, players act in order from furthest behind to furthest ahead.
Draw Event: The player with the fewest Scrap Tokens rolls 1d6. On a roll of 6, draw and resolve one Random Event card.

BURNT EARTH DRIVERS: SKIRMISH RULEBOOK
PROLOGUE: A MESSAGE FROM THE AI COUNCIL
The wasteland's chaos is a predictable algorithm. We have studied the patterns of humanity's petty squabbles, the rise and fall of their fleeting gangs. This is not a race; this is a data-capture operation. Your survival is merely a variable in our grand simulation. Log your actions, record your experience, and embrace the entropy. The A.I. Council is watching.
1. Introduction
Welcome to Burnt Earth Drivers, a miniatures skirmish game where you command a crew of wasteland scavengers in their fight for scrap, territory, and glory. This game focuses on the story of your drivers and crews as they battle for survival in the post-apocalyptic wasteland of Project OZ.
2. Game Objective
The game is played over a series of linked scenarios, where each victory, defeat, and lasting injury shapes your crew's narrative. Your objective is not merely to win a single fight, but to build your crew, acquire rare gear, and dominate the wasteland.
3. Crew Creation & Stats
Each crew is built with a starting budget of Scrap Tokens. You must spend these to hire drivers and crew, and equip them with gear.
Character Types:
Driver: The leader of your crew. High movement, good at vehicle maneuvers, can use light weapons.
Gunner: Your primary combatant. Better with ranged weapons and has a higher chance to hit.
Mechanic: Can repair vehicles, salvage scrap, and jury-rig upgrades.
Core Stats:
Move (Mv): Inches a character can move.
Health (H): How much damage they can take.
Aim (Am): The target number needed on 1d6 to hit with a ranged attack.
Melee (Ml): The target number needed on 1d6 to hit with a melee attack.
Salvage (Sl): The target number to find extra gear or scrap on a successful action.
Example Stat Line:
Driver: Mv 6", H 2, Am 4+, Ml 4+, Sl 5+
Gunner: Mv 5", H 1, Am 3+, Ml 5+, Sl 6+
Mechanic: Mv 4", H 2, Am 5+, Ml 4+, Sl 3+
4. Turn Sequence
Players alternate activating one character at a time, starting with the player who has the least Health on the table.
On a character's turn, they can perform two actions from the following list:
Move: Use their Mv stat to move.
Shoot: Make a ranged attack.
Melee: Engage an adjacent enemy.
Salvage: Make a Salvage check (Sl stat).
Vehicle Action: If in a vehicle, perform a single action related to the vehicle (drive, use mounted weapon, repair, etc.).
5. Combat & Injury
Ranged Combat:
Declare Target: Choose an enemy in range and line of sight.
Roll to Hit: Roll 1d6 against your character's Aim stat. On a success, proceed.
Damage: The target loses Health equal to the weapon's damage.
Melee Combat:
Declare Charge: Move your character into base contact with an enemy. This is a single action.
Roll to Hit: Both players roll 1d6. On a success (against Ml stat), deal one damage.
Resolve: Repeat the roll until one character is "Out of Action." The attacker with a higher successful roll wins ties.
Out of Action:
When a character's Health is reduced to 0, they are Out of Action. After the battle, roll on the Legacy Injury Table to see their fate.
6. Post-Game & Campaign Rules
The true game is the campaign. After each battle, follow these steps:
Experience: Each character who performed an action earns 1 XP. Winning the scenario grants an additional 1 XP per surviving character.
Advancements: When a character earns 5 XP, they gain a random advancement (roll on a chart). This could be a stat increase, a new skill, or a specialized ability.
Salvage: Count up all Salvage Tokens collected. These are converted to Scrap, which can be spent on new gear or recruits.
Legacy Injuries: For each character Out of Action, roll 1d6 on the table below:
Legacy Injury Table
1-2: Lasting Scars: The character survives with a permanent -1 to a randomly determined stat (Move, Aim, or Melee).
3-4: Crippled: The character survives, but their Health is permanently reduced by 1.
5: Unconscious: They are fine, but miss the next battle.
6: Hero's Return: The character is fine and gains an extra XP.
7. Vehicle Interaction
Characters can enter and exit vehicles as a full action. While inside a vehicle, they cannot be targeted by Melee attacks, and all ranged attacks against them have a -1 penalty to their Aim roll due to cover. A Driver is required to use a vehicle's movement, and Gunners are required to use its mounted weapons.
8. Vehicle Destruction
When a vehicle is Wrecked (Health at 0), all characters inside must make a Spinout test (roll 1d6, 1–3 = Spinout). If a character fails, they are immediately Out of Action. Characters that pass are safely thrown clear and can be placed within 1" of the Wrecked vehicle's base. The Wrecked vehicle becomes impassable terrain.
Quick Reference
Turn Sequence: Player with least Health activates one character.
Actions: Move, Shoot, Melee, Salvage, Vehicle Action (2 per character).
Out of Action: Roll on the Legacy Injury Table post-game.
Advancements: Earn 1 XP per action, 5 XP for a random advancement.
Vehicles: Provide cover and mounted weapons, but become a hazard when destroyed.
