Big Ivan and the Duchess - A Pulp Alley Duo
« on: 30 May 2017, 04:18:04 PM »


Who hasn't heard of the famous explorers Big Ivan and the Duchess? Did they really reach the mystical city of Shambhala? Or discover an entrance to the Hollow Earth? Is the Duchess really Her Royal Highness, the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanov? And is Big Ivan her one time bodyguard, Count Konstantin Dmitri Ivanovich...and now her lover? And is it true that Stalin has put a price on both their heads as he wants nothing more than the death of the last Romanov? You can be certain of one thing...it won't be long before we hear of their next adventure!

Nice work! Who manufactured the figures?

Gamewise, they may be challenging to use. I might have given them more in the way of defensive abilities, but would be interested in learning how well they can shoot their way out of trouble.

Cheers! The Duchess is from Artizan's Thrilling Tales and Big Ivan is one of Bob Murch's Movember figs from a couple of years ago.

Hopefully 'Tenacious' and 'On the Run' will help with injuries and challenges...but yeah, otherwise they will have to trust to 'Veteran', 'Two-Guns' and 'Eagle-Eyed' to shoot their way out of trouble...in true Pulp style!

Wolfgang,  interesting duo.  I have been mulling over a duo myself, and am wondering how they would fare against a more traditional league.  Will be interested to see your reports on this team.

Interesting sounding league, I've never really thought about a duo before but I might have to rethink that.
