Pulp Gaming by Candlelight

Just found these on my computer and realised I hadn't posted them - they are from some Pulp games played (using the Strange Aeons rules) back in January when the Man Cave hosted Pete, Ken and Comrade James for Cancon.

We played two games, the first of which saw the players' Threshold Agents trying to defend a convoy of relics and materials on loan from the Cairo Institute.  Wouldn't you know it but some damned cheeky cultists sprung up and tried to hijack some of the goods!

 The contents of the two sarcophagi appeared to be the Cultists' targets, whose wrapped inhabitants were a lot more animated that anticipated... 

Despite the Agents' best efforts, the two Mummies and a couple of Cultists managed to scamper away into the night...

The right hat is essential in any Expedition!

The second night's gaming was really cool - having gotten a lead from the Cultists speeding away, the Threshold teams infiltrated the Manor house to investigate.  What was super cool was that the whole game was played under candlelight with spooky background music playing- the atmosphere was just fantastic!

Of course candles make it very difficult to take pics but these give you the right idea

The summer night was hot, made hotter by the candles, the beer flowed very freely indeed and we all had a great time.  I don't recall the details too much, but I remember I laughed a lot as the tale unfolded to an ultimately victorious conclusion for Threshold!
