Mentioned in other threads, but we thought it could use an official announcement of its own.
The driving rain ended as quickly as it had begun, leaving behind a dense fog. Pulp Girl's eyes strained to penetrate the enveloping mists. Her sharply trained senses detected it before she could see it. She rushed to the bow of the boat, nearly unseating one of the oarsmen. Her thoughts raced. After months of searching, she had finally reached her prize. As if responding to her thoughts, the fog began to thin revealing the moonlit island. Sharp cliffs and steep mountain ridges cut through the island intersecting at the glowing stump of an active volcano, giving the appearance of a bloodied claw in the darkness. She turned to the hardened faces of her crew, noting the edge of fear in their eyes. "We've made it, boys. Now we just have to live through it. Welcome to PERILOUS ISLAND!"
The Pulp Alley team is proud to announce the release of PULP ALLEY: PERILOUS ISLAND. Written by David Phipps and Robert "Bobby" Fisher, PERILOUS ISLAND is one part story-driven campaign, one part expansion, and 100% thrilling pulp action.

It is hard for me to imagine how we would have ever finished this book, if it were not for all the folks that helped us along the way.
First and foremost, I am so happy that Bobby agreed to co-author Perilous Island. His creativity and energy was a constant source of inspiration.
Taking on the perilous task of editing, Patrick Connor bravely hacked his way through our oft-times rambling rambles to make sure Perilous Island was actually readable. He sacrificed his sanity to save the players from losing theirs.
Some of our friends and fellow LAFers shared photos of their miniatures, and they were greatly appreciated -- Ian of Pulp 28s fame, Patrick Connor, Damon Willhelm, and Dan Wade just to name a few.
We were also fortunate to have Kurt Braunsroth and Marijn Bierhof step-up when we need help with maps and templates and they really delivered!
Last but not least, we were so lucky to have enthusiastic and involved playtesters. Your frequent and honest feedback is so incredibly important!
THANKS to everyone that pitched-in and helped us make something that we can all be proud of!

There are no rules in this respect gentleman as to where you acquire your tabletop requirements. You can even take from the hands of babes as long as you replace with something more appealing which stops the crying and enables you to beat a hasty retreat lol
