Description (451 chars)
A chariot racing game designed by Carabande's Jean de Poel. Player move their chariots by playing cards from their hand, and then using the appropriate miniature wargame-style ruler to move his chariot forward. Movement cards may be drawn from the standard deck or a higher-risk-higher-reward deck. There are also rules for engaging your competitors in dirty tricks such as whipping them to distraction. First player to complete a full lap wins.
