Title: Rat Patrol Pulp Alley League...WIP. In Colour!
Post by: gary42 on August 13, 2014, 09:35:49 PM
Here's the start of a new league!  I have both mounted and dismounted minis.  I'll be able to change them up during them game so they can leave the Jeeps and throw grenades at Nazis!  Will build the vehicles with the awesome Gadgets, Guns and Vehicles!

Neat idea.  I wonder though, how do you simulate tommy guns and HMGs in Pulp Alley?

Gadgets, Guns and Vehicles have the HMG info.  These would be light guns.  There aren't any Handheld MG rules.  If your character was really good he could split his dice with some multiple hits on different enemies perhaps!

I figured maybe +2d at close range would work.

Yep.  Brigade and Company B.

Eagle-Eyed + Quick-Shot is a good combo for a character with a high rate of fire.
Throw in Hardened Veteran and you have a very convincing Tommy-gun totin' hero.

You could use the 'Burst' skill from Perilous Island.

Ooh, are you stain painting them? I haven't seen anyone stain paint in ages. It brings back some nice memories.

Not sure what stain painting is.  How do you do it?  I usually  block in colours, then wash.  Hit same colours again and then hi-light.

Here are both the mounted and dismounted versions.  All about 80% finished.

That's some clever work there Mr. 42. Excellent conversion job on the mounted/dismounted versions.

Thanks Boss!  Had to do a head swap as they had Tully (Guy in the steel helmet) shooting instead of driving!

Wow! Now that's awesome. Having the guys on foot and mounted. Too cool!  ;D :-*

Gotta agree with Mr P.
 :D

Sweet work there, love the idea of the background and the concept and execution of the figures and their 'mounts'.
Genius!

Yet another reason for looking again at PA...... ::)

Thanks folks!  Like most of us here I find these kind comments reason to sally forth!  I'm really looking forward to playing this league.
