That Corvegas could also use my car rules:

The keys might be in it. Any character that arrives to the car first can check if they are. Usually they are on a roll of 6 on a d6. Sometimes its on a 5-6... I even had one scenario where all vehicles were operational at 2+

Movement would then be say 8" cruising speed, allowing a maximum of 2 (up to ) 45 degree turns, or a fast speed of 12 or even 16", allowing only one 45 degree turn, or maybe even none...

Use the damage chart of an orc truck or buggy, and the Corvegas is suddenly a useable car

Eh...

Thanks everyone, all the feedback really means a lot!

If we're talking Fallout, it would be unlikely to see an operational Corvega, I fugured they would all look like this:


However, I keep doing body-work on it


I figured I'd get the shape right first, especially the fins, I didn't have much choice other than to approach them like real car body work. This one will be a rusted hull, but the body panel lines still need covered up, as the quarter panels, the panel lines, and especially the long lines on the car from front to back need to be right to be believable, even if I have some leeway with the finish of the metal.

Wow Dave, you have been a busy bee! Those machines look great! I can't wait until they are cast! I will definitely buy some!

Speaking of which, you order has been shipped!

dave... you know me how i really love your stuff... and i mean it and i hope you know it... so here is a bit of a cold shower maybe... looking at the scale shot.. would you say it is a bit on the long side? i really dn´t want to step on your toes here... just a minor thought for your consideration? i know the converga is supposed to be a landship in its own right... but the thought just poped up in my mind... not regarding this it is a perfectly good looking build...and if it might be possible at all... LED´s inside would be the icing of the already iced cake

I'm glad Vik said it, cause it's hard to give CC when so much work has gone in, but I agree that it seems a bit long. Any solution worth talking about? Just leave it since you're planning on building another?

I think it looks great. If you have ever stood next to a 1950's era 4 door American car, they are impossibly long. I had a '55 Desoto when I was younger. It was a monster! The "Boot" looks a bit long, but I recall the Corvega having that super long trunk, so I think it fits. I will be very surprised if Dave's requested screen shot shows this build being too long.

1- I think the scale of the car is off, it's too big all around. Compare the doors to the miniatures, and then take a look at an IRL example. Not trying to be a jerk, just offering an objective opinion.

2- Wow. That's quite a box. I am pretty stoked to check it out. Though at this point I'm feeling like the only way I'll ever get the hobby time I 'need' to finish even 1/2 of the projects I have going right now I'm going to have to get a divorce, give the kids back to bio-mom, and win the lottery. Then I'll buy one of the decommissioned missile silos and create the first LoER bunker. After that I'll make a $20,000 trip to CostCo and hole up for the next 3 years.


*edit* Of course I'll post it. I want to brag about the awesome loot I got!
