Pulp Alley at Call to Arms Wellington NZ.
« on: August 18, 2014, 09:43:52 AM »
Hi all, well we played the two day event we had been planning and had a great time.

As we played a continuous game we had to create a few rules such as; reserves, recruitment of labourers and control of NPC's.
The rules are really great fun and easy to remember, we only had to look at the rule book twice the whole weekend.

I have posted many photos and a write up of the events that I could remember on my Blog.

Setup is here.

Part 2, the first days events and more is here.

Part 3 the wrap-up (Mummies lol) is here.

Some general photos of other games, but I did not have time to do them justice posted here.

I posted this Sunday evening while the game was fairly fresh in my mind. I was a bit tired so hope it makes sense.

There are a few items that I had just finished in time for the game, so will take some photos and post to the Blog next weekend if I get time.

"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Wow! What a great set up. It all looks excellent, but the pyramid insides are the best. Sounds like a great game too.

Wow! That's fantastic, Dan! It's always great to see your awesome terrain and figures in action. The band was certainly one step beyond.

I'm glad y'all had fun playing Pulp Alley.


THANKS

Hot diggity, that is one fine looking table!

Love the idea of a big, big game like that run over multiple days... How many turns do you figure were actually played?

Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers. P. Cushing

It sure was a terrific-looking game.  

I took some photos of that table too, and posted them on my blog:
