I think it would work great (have not tried it myself though), since it is based on Mutants and masterminds i'm sure it could handle the genre well. I have...
I still have Pulp Era in one of my game binders. It actually the first pulp Rpg I ever played. I hope you dust it off and publish it, Peter ... Be smarter than...
The second edition of Pulp Era will have allot of the elements from the original verson that was Web published back in 98. Right now it is just a matter of...

The last few posts have got me wondering: How many folks here are role players as opposed to minis folks? And how many of the role players use minis in their...
... I'm 100% a role-player. I've never really gotten into minis and they just aren't for me. As to system, it just depends on the type of game that I want to...
I'm a roleplayer too, but my group sometimes uses minis to simulate the setup for fights. But we don't use mini rules at all, sticking strictly to the rping....

I've used GURPS for a lot of stuff - hadn't tried it with Pulp. Forgot that I used CoC many years ago - abandoned it because, at the time, their weapons were...
I'm a 50-50 role player/minis gamer. It's part of the reason I wrote the .45 Adventure system. I wanted something that felt a little like both. I don't have a ...
... I think of "very gritty" as being at cross purposes with a pulp game. Four color doesn't figure into things though, since that's a descriptor for comics...
My taste in pulp runs more to Black Mask or the old men's adventure magazines. Long before I read Doc Savage and the Shadow I read Raymond Chandler and Rex...
... This is a big part of the reason why I think people have a problem with discussing what is and isn't Pulp. To me, you're discussing "pulp as medium"...
I'm also a roleplaying and not a minis guy. We play in the living room, without a table, so we don't use minis at all. I've run pulp with Fudge, GURPS,...
I tend toward an expansive definition of Pulp both in terms of subjects and the time period. I agree that four-color doesn't fit in, but I do include the...
What I've run has changed. My earlier pulp games were crime fighting in NYC, at the darkness level of the Shadow, say. But I eventually realized that I'm much...
I am a roleplayer... plain and simple. One of the reasons I wrote my own Pulp game is because I never really liked much out on the market for the genre. I love...

I totally understand, I used to play Vampire and I know the storyteller system and the Bucket of Dice method. I like % as well. The first edition of my game...
Started out using Justice Inc rules [ Champions], use a d20 system the rare times I GM. Normal GM likes to use Fuzion. I like minis but don't use table top...
What I meant by "4 color" is a more wide open style. If, for example, a player in my game wants to try to set the fuel from a truck on fire, I'm going to take...
But then does Pulp as Genre mean only Doc Savage, The Spider, The Shadow, and other costumed crime-fighters? Let's skip detectives - how about Lost Worlds...
... Indiana Jones is firmly in the category of the Neo-Pulp while Burroughs is Victorian, much like the works of H. Rider Haggard, Sax Rohmer or H.G. Wells. ...
Well I started out a wargamer only. Then when D&D came out and I switched to Rpgs only. Around 6 years ago I started playing both. But time restriction made...
