(Commercial) 7TV: Pulp... on general release!
« on: February 13, 2019, 11:00:50 PM »
7TV: PULP is coming!
For the past two years, I have had the pleasure of collaborating on 7TV: Pulp with the Creative Writing students from Edge Hill University in the northwest of England.

So prepare to battle over the tabletop in two-fisted exchanges pitting heroic derring-do against the dastardly machinations of megalomaniacal villains and otherworldly horrors. 7TV: Pulp is a tabletop skirmish game inspired by the American cinema serials and pulp magazines of the 1930s and 1940s.

If you love old movie serials, pulp fiction magazines, or any of the action-adventure movies they gave birth to and wish you could realize it on the tabletop – you’ll soon be able to!

7TV: PULP BLOG

https://crookeddice7tvpulp.com

The 7TV: Pulp blog offers insight into this unique collaboration, and will provide regular updates up until launch of the Boxed game. This will include previews of background, rules and miniatures - as well as information and resources for anyone interested in wargaming in a variety of pulp genres.

The 7TV: Pulp boxed game will launch at the UK Games Expo 2019 on 31st May-2nd June.

I realise it isn't classic Pulp*, but I'm hoping these rules might be used for Dr Who outings. At any rate, will be keeping an eye on this set. Very exciting!

* Is there such a things as 70s Pulp?  ;)

Re: 7TV: Pulp... PRE-ORDER
« Reply #11 on: April 27, 2019, 11:18:24 AM »
The 7TV: Pulp boxed set is now available to pre-order from the Crooked Dice website.

http://www.crooked-dice.co.uk/wp/product/7tv-pulp-boxed-set/

7TV: Pulp is a tabletop skirmish game inspired by the American cinema serials and pulp magazines of the 1930s and 1940s. Designed to work with the 7TV 2nd edition rules, 7TV: Pulp rules contained within this box are stand alone, but are intended to allow players to run games within the many fantastic, hardboiled or thrilling worlds of the pulp genre.

It is the product of a unique collaboration between Crooked Dice Game Design Studio and Creative Writing students from Edge Hill University in the northwest of England. Here are a couple of Wargames Illustrated interviews with more details on how the students worked on a live gaming product.

You can pick up the nice discount before it launches direct to retail on 31 May at the UK Games Expo.

7TV: Pulp was delivered today! After two years, hundreds of hours, hard work, new friends and a lot of fun, Crooked Dice and Edge Hill University Press have a new beautifully printed game to share with you all - and we can’t wait. You can still pre-order the game at a discount here:

I will try and shift as many pre-ordered copies (box only) as I can before the show, but you come and check it out, play a game and buy a copy at the UK Games Expo later this week!
