Title: Back from the Future - a Pulp Alley Game
Post by: blacksoilbill on 19 October 2015, 12:37:20 PM
No DeLoreans or hoverboards, sorry. Just a need to accommodate some diverse leagues at our last club game...

In his never ending quest for power, Dr Veruckthaar has hatched a plan to harness the weaponry of the future. He builds four time portals to draw unsuspecting beings from another time and place. Four groups technologically advanced warriors, somewhat agitated warriors all arriving at once…what could possibly go wrong?

The space smugglers.

The robots.

The brain creatures.

The Daleks.

Each of the gangs must grab a temporal inversion crystal from the centre of the table and take it back to their time portal if they are to make it home.

Looks like Davros did a nice bit of "Off-Roading" lol

Smashing lots of diversity and a good excuse to mix up the Genres! :-*

Thanks gents!

Yes, no stairs so he was all good!

I should mention that the Daleks, robots and brain critters were all painted by Rhys, one of the other players.

Hi James, no, sorry, I didn't really see the details of what he used. I know he ran some of the Daleks as followers. I'd be more inclined to run them as allies - makes them a little hardier. I reckon some of the suggestions on the other thread would be worth toying with.

Bill.
