Pulp Alley Scenario 3: crossroads

 Objective:  collect 4 points by being near the church doorway at end of turn.  In case both players are in zone, the Director player gets the point.

The Triad gang shows up, with a hired Mafioso.

They quickly enter the church and courtyard 

Texas Rangers arrive.  The Kid (sidekick) takes two deputies around the right flank.
Ranger Buck Jones (left) approached the church with two deputies 
How Phun (Triad leader) and his sidekick Uncle Ho rush out of the church to fight Jones.
Jones falls back to cover, while the Triad turn their attention on two deputies. 

Back in cover, Buck lays down some gun fire.
The Kid rushes How Phun, but gets downed by his superior Kung Fu.
Short on time, the Triad have racked up 3 points, one away from victory. Buck gets in the objective zone and trades shots with all comers.
Unfortunately for Jones he can't handle everyone.   He is whittled down and drops.

The mafioso goes up to loot, but Jones is still alive.   "TIE him up, boys.  The Boss will want to talk to this one."

Will Buck Jones escape the clutches of organized crime!?  Tune in next time....

Pulp Alley 1

 Scenario 8.

The Texas Rangers must recover some evidence that is in Mother the pig.  They were tipped off by local mobsters that the local Triad gang offers a "disposal service" and accompany them to the location.    But is it a trap?!


The Rangers with some local PD back up
"Perilous areas" were local wildlife. 
Rangers Sidekick "The Kid" brawls with Triad gangster "Lazy Lam".
Mother Pig, the plot point
Angry goat.   Perilous area.
Of course it's a trap!  The mobsters turn on the lawmen.  A furious shootout at the pigpen.
Local beverage company delivers some unprohibited drinks.   

In the end the Rangers get their pig.  I was so caught up in the action I forgot to bring in my Triad gang leader as reinforcement!
