Players spend some "homework" time designing vehicles, then they test them in turn-based combat, then it's back to the drawing board to revamp designs. For every hour of combat play, it's probably at least one hour of design time, tweaking designs within constraints . . .
Starting with version 5, they started dumbing down the rules and focusing more on faster combat and moving around larger toy cars instead of designing anything. Because who wants to play a geeky engineering game, anyway? (me)
