Battle for SS Scuttlebutt Pulp Alley AAR
« on: February 14, 2014, 11:56:34 AM »
Well to continue the adventures of the "Ward Warriors" or as they are also called the "Sick, Lame & Lazy" I decided to throw them a curve ball.....a battle at sea.
"Ho hum," you say, "another ship fight"...
"not quite," says I, this one had a twist....the ship was adrift in the ocean.
"yeah so what, we have seen those games before," you cry.
The big twist was that the 6 gangs are all at sea....in lift rafts, wooden rafts, stolen canoes, a string of truck inner tubes, sun loungers, a sinking boat and finally the wings of a crashed plane.
This brought forth the first roars of laughter and groans of dismay. It also introduced the first couple of perils....getting to the ship then getting ON BOARD!!!
After 5 of the gangs made it to the ship...we lost one to sharks and failure to secure a line to scale the ships side, they players were required to find the plot points to allow them to get the vessel underway and to be in control of the helm to make it to their home port.
This lead to MANY brawls and shootouts in the confines of the upper, middle and lower decks. Again whittling down the number of gangs until we were left with only Mads Marauders, Team Tom Thumb & The Peach Death....bit worried about that lad!!! :o
Each of the three gangs had secured a plot point a piece so it came down to WHO could hold the bridge.....well a battle royale in the making. All three arrived at the same time and the biggest mass brawl in history started. Every surviving member of each of the gangs was involved....EXCEPT the leader of "The Peach Death"

"Rotten Peaches"...yes that was his name, made use of his NEFARIOUS perk and lobbed a grenade into the brawl and ended up being the only man standing...
so a win to The Peach Death!!!
The name might be terrible but you have to love the move ;D

So stay tuned for more madness from the renamed mental ward...oh and there was so much noise and laughter happening that  rounds were postponed :)

Good show!
I bet the kids will never in life forget that stay in hospital. And who knows - some of them could be future gamers too, now that they tipped their toe into madness...  :D

Stunning idea that will be well-borrowed, I imagine....  ;D
