Those boards and the figures that go with them are incredibly inspiring. Thank you!

Thanks guys for the comments...

as I mentioned in the post the next thrilling tale occurs in leafy England - the calendar has moved on a year and Britain is plunged into a constitutional crisis...

think Pulp Alley meets a Very British Civil War.. :D.

The terrain for this is already built... ;)

From England our adventurers will travel further overseas....

I have finalised that the Campaign will consist of seven set piece games - however a sub-plot of this adventure will feature at BLAM in October. The plan is to finish the Campaign by the end of the year.

Very interesting Pulp Alley scenario indeed!  ;)

THANKS for sharing your special scenario rule for blind movement ---

Quote
...I took a picture of the table and copied this into PowerPoint onto which I marked the various Zones. Given it was night-time and that I did not want each of the teams to see what the opposition had in the way of forces each squad was moved using hidden movement. Only when the teams moved into the same zone would they be revealed. Common sense would determine the location of each unit – for example if they moved into a zone with a building it would be assumed that the unit would take cover inside the building. Should a unit wish to stay still it was automatically assumed to be in Ambush mode...

Really enjoying the campaign, thanks for sharing the blind movement local rules. The set ups look fantastic.
I notice you've had some characters die (ein, zwei, drei etc) in the scenarios. How do you determine that a character is dead or just temporarily down and out as in the rules?

If they don't revive they are dead it makes it that much more epic...and final :D

Hi Eric, that's awesome. Please put me down for the scenario at BLAM.
I did not know anyone else was putting on a Pulp Alley game. I am doing a Pulp Alley meets Cludo. The Cludo mansion is based on a house in Hastings so DCS Foyle and Co. may be investigating... see my earlier post today.

Excellent!  I'd be showing my age if I said it reminds me of Saturday morning pictures.
