In the case of Pulp Alley your decoder ring is the Phantom Agent reward card for posting an AAR of a Pulp Alley game.

And I like to track down real names from the time period to use, and act as though the person "went Free" when Norway left for the Red Planet.  This one seemed appropriate.

Agreed!

Truly GREAT game of Martian Alley tonight Neil! Wonderful scenario. Even though it broke my heart to see our beloved Princess of Helium flying away in the four arms of a winged green man, and not being able to do anything about it, that's a great set up for a rescue scenario to follow!

By the way, in the Pulp Alley forums rules section there is a thread from June 2013 in which Dave Phipps says that a character can run and shoot in the same activation, with a -1d penalty.

Awesome figures and ships, man, a total pleasure to play with!

Why you gotta be like that, man?  Always the lawyer!  Oh, wait....   ;)

Yeah, I found that last night when I got home.  What, 4 (maybe 5?) years I have been playing, and I always thought running ended your activation...

Your game went well on Sunday too - just a bit too many people.

For the rest of you, an AAR will be coming soon to a thread near you!

Resurrection!  So, I have been working on fantasy, WW2 and post-apoc, but I did come back to my VSF love as well.  I am putting on a follow up game to the one I did last year at the upcoming Enfilade convention, and have been working on some added figures.  To go with the nasty-bad flying Martians, I did some shading over some Monsterpocalypse figures.






The game is going to be Pulp Alley, so the two big guys will be sidekicks, and the little buggers are going to operate as a gang.  The first big rodan looking beast is just washed over the original paint job, and the second was one of their clear plastics with a new paint scheme.

As female associates to the green flyers, I found some Harpy figures, and added another pair of arms...



And I have a new mountain top for them to live on.  I plan on putting polyfill around the base to use as "clouds".

And I almost forgot - I have a new skiff for Carter and his big green friend!




Made from a Galactic Heroes toy, I think.

And, of course, and other Aeronef - http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=99849.0

It's just the West Coast - we do have airplanes here, you know.  It isn't just horses and stagecoaches.   ;D  Come on up!

Yeah, that's what I said when I suggested a meeting 'twixt thee, Froggy the Great, and me. Look on the map; KC's about mid-point between us all.   :D

Ah, well, someday...

Oh, wait, I have to actually finish a project first, don't I.  ::)
