My son and I played the second game in a Pulp Alley campaign we've begun.

picture

In the previous game, Inquisitor Odo Lucipater successfully recovered the Tome of Regilus from its hiding place in an ancient cemetery. However, even with the aid of the a scribal expert, he has been unable to decipher the text of the tome.

While the scribe can do nothing with the text, he remembers meeting an old hermit while on a pilgrimage to the resting place of the sacred ginx-goad of Saint Cercaster. He and the hermit, one Jagarnath Astonaye, fell into conversation. The talk turned to great and glorious dreams and Astonaye told of life's passion to discover and translate the Tome of Regilus.

A series of inquiries trace Astonaye's last known whereabouts: the desert planet of Anx. The game begins with Lucipater's party at the spaceport, ready to head out and search for someone who might know where to find the hermit.

Unfortunately, someone has discovered their plan and they are not alone.

The Inquisitor and his crew must get out through the door opposite their starting point. The chaos cultists only need to stop them.

Nice! Very good looking figs and terrain. Pulp Alley is a great ruleset.

Thanks Dentatus. I need some more scatter terrain, and some more walls too, but it's getting there. Actually, your set-up on your blog has been an inspiration and a reference!

Pulp Alley sure is a great set of rules.

thanks for sharing! I'll have to look into Pulp Alley.

Sounds like a similar scenario I've been considering, only in 15mm scale, instead.

Glenn, they're well worth a look. Quick, versatile, simple to learn so you focus on the action and the story rather than the rules. You can download a trial version here: link

Mako, would love to see what you come up with!
