Some highlights from last night's Pulp Alley game. This scenario pits Blackie Burns (attacker) against Corky Gallagher (defender). We're playing the "Raid" scenario from our Vice Alley campaign book.

Corky's crew sets up to defend their territory and the truck!


A bloody firefight on Jackson Avenue….


Meanwhile, in the alley, Corky clobbers Blackie's allies….


Corky's dame, Myrna Mae, spots Blackie on the roof and fires a burst from her tommy-gun and Blackie leaps down on the truck….


By the start of turn #4 Blackie had lost three Allies, Corky lost one Ally and one Gang.


Blackie draws heavy fire and is wounded as he prepares the explosives….


Bullet's flying all around him, Blackie keeps his cool and plants the explosives on Corky's truck….


Blackie dives for cover, just as ….KA-BOOOOM!

We really had lots of fun with this one. It came down to the wire.

Is that the Blue Moon tractor-trailer combo? I like it very much.

Your city is growing and looks *great*!! All sorts of possible scenarios there. I love the way you and your dad promote the game and pulp era gaming. I wish that all of the pulp era rules developers would do the same.

I can't believe somebody shot that dog.

Thanks, guys!

@ Jeff – Yes, that truck is from Blue Moon. We have 4 or 5 of their vehicles. Wish I had more. :)

>>I can't believe somebody shot that dog.<<

During a past pulp era game my character's dog, "Atlas", was shot by a Nazi. When I asked why he shot my dog, the villain replied "because he was there".

Great pics – it looks like you had a fun game.

Great-looking game, Mila.

Can you tell us about the various buildings? Who makes them, ect.

Also allow me to echo The Shadow's comment about your "game promotion". You and your dad do a great job.

The buildings are mostly from the Old Glory 25mm Chicago Gangster Building line:

The cars seem to be Old Glory/Blue Moon:

Great stuff! The dog probably deserved it….. ;-)

Dogs never deserve such a thing.
