About the game
The Mercenary duo called Mad and Max really do honour to their names! Both are bold, daring and completely crazy ones, on their Snowbug (a heavy customized snow buggy) they run through Old London’s icy roads, offering their abilites to those Leaders, foolish enough to hire them! No difference if they’ll be on scouting or demolition missions, nothing scares this duo: for booze and some food, they’ll do everything! Mad & Max is a Mercenary unit, that can be integrated in any game of Divide et Impera. —description from the publisher
