Title: Gaming "Defiance"?
Post by: NickNascati on 23 June 2014, 09:42:04 PM: All,
Not really sure what board this fits in, given the obvious Pulp overtones, but has anyone gamed this? It seems like a great background for skirmish/rpg games. The problem is the figures for the assorted non-humans.

I do think it could be a funky setting.if i were you i'd instead look for pulp or sci fi humans and simple paint them different colors.

But if you can find a miniature of the girl who runs the whore house i will by one ...for reasons.

Use one of the many pulp ranges of Ape men for the Sensoth.

Mix miss match gypsy, Bikers and woodland American Natives for the Irathients

Maybe just change a weapon or two to make them more current.

Post by: NickNascati on 10 August 2014, 12:52:03 AM: Given the sort of scenarios in the episodes, I'd consider Pulp Alley, 5150, or maybe even Western rules.
