Grand Prix Board Game
"Grand Prix" is the newest auto racing game from Jeff and Carla Horger along side GMT Games. Between 2-11 players can compete in the game controlling either one team of two cars or multiple teams. Players can score in two different ways: individual car scoring where first place is huge and only the top 10 places get any points, and team scoring where the placement of all cars in a race determines the team score.
The courses of the "Grand Prix" are not simple ovals or wide open super speedways but tight tracks that will limit passing opportunities and require finesse and skill to make it to the front of the line. The game borrows heavily from the "Thunder Alley" movement classes so you'll find a familiar combination of solo, line, pursuit and lead movement, but the abilities are tweaked to maximize the feel of Formula 1 racing. It will be up to the players to learn how the courses and the cards work together on each track to optimize their play.
Yellow flag saves are not as common in F1 and pit strategy is even more important. The penalty threshold for wear is lower and pitting will happen more frequently. In addition to typical wear like suspension damage, tire wear and engine wear, "Grand Prix" incorporates “close-call” tokens for aggressive drivers. These do not count against speed but they do constantly pile up until an event card calls for the player with the most to pay the consequences.
The game also comes with four new "Grand Prix" tracks that contain unique and challenging features. All included tracks are compatible with "Thunder Alley" and all "Thunder Alley" tracks are compatible with "Grand Prix".
Let the racing...continue.
Players: 2-11
Playtime: 60-90 minutes
