Just started working putting the table together for our 'Dice another Day' Pulp Alley extravaganza that we are putting on at Partizan in 3 weeks time.

Are there any UK based Pulp Alley gamers that are going to Partizan that would like a piece of the action?

That looks fantastic! Heaps of fun for games too, I'd imagine.

Last night Doug, Paul & I got together for a playtest of our Pulp Alley 'Dice another Day' game that we are running at Partizan on 20th May.

We had three leagues, MI6, Smersh & Spectre.

The scenario involved talking to / intimidating witnesses to try to find the location of local big man 'Big Ghaza' who might know the whereabouts of Professor Evils lair, (while being severely harassed by stray dogs).

Do let me know if any of you can join us at Partizan, as it will dramatically alter the scope of what we can put on if a couple of experienced Pulp Alley gamers join us on the day!

Looking good. Is the large ship on the left a variation of the tramp steamer?

No, it's a conversion of the TT Combat ship with the hull built up to a reasonable level so she does not look like she's about to sink!

Last week saw some frantic terrain making for our 'Dice another Day' game.
We designed and made a Tramps Steamer (which has been covered on it's own thread), and have added the surrounding boards to embed a bunker tile with Professor Evil's lair into the terrain.

So, the big question is are any LAF buddies going to come along to Partizan on SUnday and play some Pulp Alley with us?
