Tribal Savage Posts: 295 Group: Members Member #61 Joined: Jan 19, 2009	yes for the pulp rules. i will run a few games if the club want to help using the basic rules for cops and gangsters etc then write rules for each miniature e.g Candy Kid: (with all proper stats etc) i'm thinking of writing a quick rule version of black west for beginning with the game and gettin used to the mechanics. Any way. here are some more pics....The much improved van - added weathering, signs, blood and bulbs And i made a "road works" site for a the terrain i will build eventually. it features a very B-movie style "not" ramp. and one for scale PAINTING MINIATURES TONIGHT!!!
