Burning Rubber is no longer on the Internet and the author's e-mail address is non-functional. Without permission, SWAT has uploaded this excellent RPG to its Web site  to maintain its availability to the auto-combat tabletop gaming community.

The  SWAT HQ edition of these files are unchanged from their original appearance on the Internet in the late 1990s except for correcting page setup and spelling errors on the introductory image and HTML files.

Upon request, SWAT will remove the entire Burning Rubber set of files from its Web site.

Basically, this is just a set of simple rules, so that you can create characters, vehicles and have both normal and auto combat. I suggest that you have played other RPGs before, and also the I'76 computer game before you start with this one, so that you know what it's all about.

I haven't described the world of I'76 at all in the game: it's up to the gamemaster to do that. He also must create fun adventures for his players. However, if I get a good response from you out there, I may do more for the game in the future. Have fun!

Additional testing made me realize there was need for another upgrade, and here it is, v1.2. It is just a minor change to combat rules and the car damage system. I also upgraded the vehicle sheets so they will fit the new rules.

This is the final version of the RPG, and no more changes will be done. I won't update this page any longer, but it will stay up until the day I need the Web space for something more important. The reason is simple: There is no need for more updates. The RPG turned out to be as I wanted. My friends and I enjoy it as it is. I hope you do too. : )

Burning Rubber Full Version (4.2 MB)

Contains lots of graphics, but I think you'll need Microsoft Word 97 for it to work properly.

Burning Rubber Half Version (1.3 MB)

Smaller version with lesser graphics. Can be loaded into Microsoft Windows 95 Wordpad. 

Both a character sheet and a vehicle sheet. You will probably need Microsoft Word 97 for these as well.
