The complete rules in one volume.

Now, all your Car Wars rules can be found in one book—The Car Wars Compendium.

Design your own cars, cycles, trikes, vans, trucks, 18-wheel tractor-trailer rigs, boats, helicopters and hovercraft! The Car Wars Compendium is organized and indexed for easy reference, and includes 8 extra pages of charts and tables!

• Car Wars Compendium: Second Edition (1990) Blue cover – Revises the first edition with errata and adds race cars from Dueltrack; becoming the Fourth Edition of Car Wars
• Car Wars Compendium: Second Edition (fifth printing, 1996) Black cover – Adds more detailed errata, and almost all new artwork. Often referred to as CWC2.5
