Re: Fw: [HOE] Vet o' Wasted Roads? Just something to try out.

["Shawn Willett" <damarshal@hotmail.com>]

This is a kewl idea. I like it. Sounds like what I did to the Road 
Warrior/Gearhead in my S-Swat Posse. He had built his car with his best 
friend, who went nuts when the Big One went down and  subsequently tried to 
kill him. The friend's spirit became part of the car, which meant if Chase 
tried to sell it/destroy it, bad things start happening to him. But I like 
the whole Vet O' Wasted Roads thing. I'm all for any ideas out there that 
will convince players that they don't have to play god-like AB's to survive 
and have fun in HoE. Shawn
