I forget the name now - the shipping is what turned me away. I think Mark owes you a beer!<br /><br />I would say more DMH, you're throwing interrupt cards much in the same way. The hang-up I'm having is with combat (think the way X-Wing's dice work in a way with matching dice) and their unique initiative system. It has an absolutely brilliant customization option for creating your own characters, which in turn form your leagues (their term for the group of characters you'll use in the game). From what everyone says, once you get past how initiative runs and combat it is really easy to play, as there are no charts or anything else to reference during actual game play. <br /><br />http://pulpalley.com/index.php<br /><br />I also love the fact that it's a father daughter team that make it basically out of their home! And also that the rules can really be used for any time period - I've read AAR's using the rules for sci-fi, old west, spy genre, modern, and of course pulpy 1930's action. Now if only I was a wee bit smarter, I'd have figured it all out and played by now!<br /><br />Ivor Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11928387567891480797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096838413091248429.post-19938974542057456452016-02-29T15:38:25.162-08:002016-02-29T15:38:25.162-08:00Lol, have never even looked at it. Would you say ...Lol, have never even looked at it. Would you say it is closers to M&T or DMH as a rules set? I have nothing for pulp, although I just just buy the cool Germans carrying the arc of the covenant from Indiana Jones :-) I think poor old Mark has been swamped with orders ;-)<br /><br />Also, I have tons of unnamed binge shopping micro periods myself ;-)Jay Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11526516499890662958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096838413091248429.post-70384543418087373122016-02-28T21:16:40.491-08:002016-02-28T21:16:40.491-08:00Thanks, though I feel one of my biggest problems i...Thanks, though I feel one of my biggest problems is starting too many small projects and not finishing them! I have to say though, Cresent Root is now easily at the top of my favorite buildings. Mark needs to start on some Chicago style 1930's buildings pronto!<br /><br />And who doesn't like a cool Lao Che Air Freight building and boxes!<br /><br />Here's what I really need you to do though Jay; get Pulp Alley (or I'll buy it and send it to you) and do a video tutorial with the guys, like you did with Dead Man's Hand! Ok? Great! *I'm having a time and a half getting the rules straight and I learn so much better when someone else is teaching*Ivor Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11928387567891480797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096838413091248429.post-74594443074623298972016-02-28T14:28:02.459-08:002016-02-28T14:28:02.459-08:00You've been busy!

Nice combination with the 4Ground walkways as well!Jay Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11526516499890662958noreply@blogger.com
