I just found these here:

Anyone have any experience with them or any thoughts in general? I find the idea intriguing.

I used them with students a few years ago for some modern Africa imagi-nation battles. They were easy to use and the students picked them up quickly. They really liked them and I felt that they were entertaining. They gave a good game and all of the needed info was on the cards which was a plus.

Thank you, Paul. I have started playing Pulp Alley with my wife and she is very keen on the cards.

Cards as a mechanism in and of themself seem like a good way to easily get non-wargamers playing. Especially if what the player can do is spelled out on the card.

I think I am going to pick these up and start fiddling with some ideas.

I also bought the fantasy set but haven't played those. They look like a quick filler game though, especially if you have armies ready to go . Maybe I'll collect some 1/72 stuff to play with.
