Great looking game! Where did you get the laser cut ship from? I. Want. It.

I can't shake the feeling that your player using the clown-colors-painted Necromunda gang doesn't respect the tropes of Pulp adventures.

People do look at them funny when they pass them on the street, but before they say anything they first look in their eyes…and their biceps…and exotic futuristic weapons, they walk on without any further comment.

Jozis Tin Man The ship is from TT Combat:

It was cheap and arrived quickly, even all the way from Merrie Auld England. Highly recommended.

chicklewis Not sure which clown-colored Necromunda gang you're referring to, but if you show up at my table with minis and want to game, you're in. Especially if you bring snacks.

What a great looking table! Love the Escher plus old school Imperial Guard! Made me think it was a sci fi game at first.

ragsthetiger30 Mar 2016 4:36 p.m. PST

blacksoilbill Thanks…we just use whatever minis we have, and we have lots of really old 40K and Necromunda. One of these days I'm going to paint up my Squat Bikers and run them in Pulp Alley. In the meantime, it's lots of fun to run my old Escher gang in a different setting and in a game they can't get killed off or maimed in. I think they're enjoying it, too. Hell, they never got to ride a jetbike back on Necromunda.

Who makes the warehouse? Nice looking

Whemever130 Mar 2016 5:33 p.m. PST

Blue Monday and the Order of the Subtle Flame are both dressed for the Flash Gordon/Ming the Merciless school of pulp.

ragsthetiger30 Mar 2016 5:48 p.m. PST

dragon6…The warehouse is from Micro Art Studios, part of their collection for the Wolsung Steampunk game.

Whemever1…An apt observation; Flash Gordon was actually set in the 1930's, not the far future like Buck Rogers. Flash was a test pilot who had an inventor as a friend, which sounds like the beginnings of a righteous Pulp Alley league.

It all sounds like a lot of fun. Your table looks great: I especially like the ship, the cobbled streets (are they Lemax?) and the cloth you use for the water--is that fabric you found? It gives the whole set-up a Van Gogh-like feel. I like it.

Thanks for sharing!

The Shadow30 Mar 2016 5:54 p.m. PST

Funny that they didn't offer hatch covers, masts, booms and a funnel. Not even as accessories. Otherwise it looks pretty good.

ragsthetiger30 Mar 2016 6:03 p.m. PST

Daryl Haselton…The cobblestone roads are from Department 56 and are part of their under-the-tree Christmas village line. You can get all of their stuff from Amazon. The fabric is a print called "Dark Ocean Wave" I picked up online from a quilting supply place. I think it looks pretty cool, too, for a simple fabric solution.

The Shadow…I guess if they included that stuff the kit couldn't sell for £13.95 GBP. Most of it is available from other sources, though, and I have some of those bits. I think this is one of those projects that's never completely finished.

I didn't know I needed a freighter till now… Great looking table.

wargame insomniac31 Mar 2016 3:07 p.m. PST

I have been wanting a Pulp Alley freighter for a while. I downloaded a card one previously but I would prefer resin or mdf, so have bookmarked your link. Thanks

Game itself looks fun.
