Pulp Alley Solo Question
« on: January 03, 2023, 05:35:39 PM »
Hi all!
I'm approaching some Pulp games and, after the reading of various rules sys, I decided to give Pulp Alley a go!!! I will play Solo and a question arise:  When I play a solo scenario, will the enemies be listed or I have to gather a bot league of my choice? If I play for example "The Four Faces of Dr. Fang" scenario frim the 2018 scenario book, who will be my adversary? What's the difference between enemy bot and NPC? I watched several videos on PA youtybe channel but I wasn't able to find an answer. Any help will be really appreciated!

I'm working this out as well. As far as I can work out it's the same rules, as the normal games with two players. You build leagues the same way, but there is a different deck, and you play the cards differently

I found this video very helpful:

It depends on the scenario. Some need not leagues & some are vs the scenario

Thanks my friends! I watched the video already but I need clarification on what happens just before the start of the game.
How I identify the scenarios where I need to build the bot league too and the ones I don't?

It will be in the first couple of pages, under the outline for each play style that you don’t need a bot League.

Mmmm...I think I was struggling too much about scenarios: If they list no leagues, you just gather your enemies. If they list NPCs you can play against it only or against a bot league you create too. When you play solo.....you can just do what you like more!

Thanks!!!

The Tomb of the Serpent campaign book I believe does in fact provide the opposing leagues for the scenarios.  Otherwise, you either make up a bot league, or play against the perils of the scenario.
