"Mad Dogs With Guns" released ---

[Howard Whitehouse]

Released today, like out of Sing Sing with five dollars and a bus ticket --

Roderick Robertson and I, founders, owners and Capos di Tutti Capi of Pulp Action Library are happy to announce the release of "Mad Dogs With Guns", our 1920s Prohibition Era shoot 'em up rules.

"Mad Dogs" uses the core mechanisms from "Astounding Tales!", but in a more structured and  "realistic" way, in that Big Shots can get shot, and puny mob ‘associates' can get lucky with a cheap pistol every now and then. You can drive like a maniac, throw dynamite through your rival's window, and occasionally get beaten up by a little old lady.
 
It has a full set of gangland scenarios and a campaign system to run rackets in the imaginary, yet totally corrupt, city of Paradise, Illinois.

This is done in association with Copplestone Castings' "Gangsters – Mad Dogs With Guns" range of figures.

Mr. Capone says you should buy several copies. You know, you got a nice place here – be a shame if anything happened to it.

“Mad Dogs With Guns” is available from Wargames vault at $18 for the PDF version or $29 for the print copy, or $45 for one of each as a bundle. Right now only the PDF version is showing up. You get six free pages to make your mind up, because we’re swell guys.

I don't know anything about that BookFace thingy, the whole "Web 2.0" revolution kinda flew past me

It's god to see a new ruleset coming out for gangster scenarios, and a campaign system is a big plus

Perhaps I'll take a look when my current project pipeline clears up a bit

I'll be in come payday.

The print version is available from Wargames Vault.

Because Mr. Capone don't care for the PDF version ---

Go ahead, order as many as you want!

There's an option for people who want both a PDF and a book for a small discount, which you may spend on bathtub whiskey at the speakeasy of your choice.

North Star Figures will be doing a 'commercial' print edition that you can buy from your favoured wargames dealer as well.

Great news about the Northstar print version. Any idea how soon Nick is going to have it available?

[Howard Whitehouse]

I don't, sorry.

Note that the Wargames Vault hard copy is apparently sent from a printer in  - within limits -  the country you are in. So, while mine came from Michigan, if I was at my sister's house in the Thames Valley, it would come from somewhere in the UK.

If I was at my underground HQ inside a Mayan pyramid, I imagine I'd be SOL.

Amateur.  My HQ is in an active volcano.   


I might be picking these up by the way.  Is the print copy softcover?
