Pulp Alley burst / blast templates?
« on: March 16, 2017, 08:26:00 PM »
Hi folks. Just wondering if there are any online sources for printable burst / blast templates for Pulp Alley? I see that one can buy plastic templates, but for the 'gamer on a budget' I wondered if there were any free / low cost PDF alternatives? No biggie though - I can probably approximate something about the right size / dimensions (or re-use templates from the myriad other games that I own / never play.......).

Only recently discovered PA and its really got my imagination going - finally have a use for some 28mm Grey Aliens I've had for years; and I'm also pondering putting together a bunch of mixed-genre Goblins (sci fi; cowboy; Napoleonic; steampunk; etc) who travel the universe in a strange green telephone box.......

Aren't there templates in one of the PA rule books?

The Vice Alley and Perilous Island rule books both have templates for the basic bursts on the back cover, and Vehicles and Gadgets includes some more specialized bursts. But a 3" diameter circle seems the most useful to me.

Ah right, thanks. Currently I just have PDFs of the main rulebook and the 'Leagues' supplement.

I guess I now have an excuse to consider purchasing another PDF supplement.........  :D

Both campaign books are well worth the cost of the PDF - even if you don't play through the whole campaign,  they're chock full of extra scenarios that you can play on their own as well as extra rules etc

"... for the 'gamer on a budget' ..."

May not be pretty, but I use floral wire bent (more or less) to the correct shape.
Minimally intrusive, easy to apply, and cheap(?).
