Pulp Alley Cluedo

[Chris Abbey]

This week our evenings are taken up by completing the Cluedo Mansion for our Pulp Alley game at Blam on Saturday!



Here, my darling wife, Ann is hard at work 'cutting and pasting' in the good old fashioned way.



Decorating in the Conservatory is nearly finished. Here Poirot confronts Miss Scarlet, "I believe that you did it, in the library, with the candle stick" gasp....

looking forward to this....

+1 to that!

It wouldn't be BLAM if you're not making/building/painting at the last minute!

This was a fun game, thanks Chris. Professor Plum spent most of the game getting injured in the toilet!

It was two great games for me at the tactica. Great set of rules. I was happy that I got the chance of testing it.

[Chris Abbey]

I am very glad that you enjoyed playing it. I think that it worked very well. It is certainly a game which I will be running again. It is booked in as the Christmas Eve game with our house guests this year, I will try it out at my local club at some point and it is booked in as our participation game at Hammerhead 2016!



The Pulp Alley games was run in a similar way to the trail of clues scenario. Characters had to resolve a potential murder weapon plot point, then a potential crime scene plot point before attempting to resolve the major plot point that was the suspect.



We played the scenario four times at BLAM.

Your game looks great.
Love the figures and how you use Pulp Alley.
Thanks for the photos.

That is beautiful  How many base sets of Terra-blocks did it take to build the board (understanding a base set does not have the nice windows or steps if I recall)? Would the company consider making the mansion a set that could be purchased?

[Chris Abbey]

The Cluedo Mansion has a similar footprint to three Deluxe Starters...however that would not really give you the correct mix of pieces. I don't think their will be that big a market for it, but we will put it together as a single boxed set in the next couple of weeks in case any one is interested in building their own mansion. We are launching a Kickstarter in 10 days time for our range of photo-realistic Normandy buildings so we will be run off our feet until the end of the month. We should be able to fit it in early November.

Cool idea! Great looking terrain!

I know it's off topic/genre, but I can't help imagining running an embassy siege game with Crooked Dice's X-Commando/SAS men streaming through the corridors…

Chris,
Just found this, it's brilliant! I would love to get to Hammerhead next year to have a go at this. I'll see what can be arranged with SWMBO.

Indeed! The Terra Blocks stuff is so versatile. Great stuff.
