Dragon Bones Games at Cold Wars 2006

At Cold Wars 2006, I ran demo games of .45 Adventure: Crimefighting Action in the Pulp Era using the new Dragon Bones: Adventures in the Gobi Desert supplement. Click on any of the images below to see a larger version.

The Saturday afternoon victims... err, players. There are 4, count them 4 TMP members here and there was not a single rant about Foundry prices or the color of lace on AWI figures.

The Saturday night crew. This raucous bunch did their best to derail me, but I prevailed and they had fun despite all their attempts to be miserable.

A good shot of nearly the whole board about 3/4s of the way through the game. Native Assistants and Bandits seemed to fare worse as their bodies are strewn everywhere.

The bandits approach!

A truck attempts to make an escape with the Dragon Bones. Poor Juan driving caught some lead on his way up the hill though. That was it for him.

Chaos reigns at this point in the game. A wandering camel, a hungry wolf, and a Dust Devil play havoc with the paleontologists attempts to escape.

Another Native Assistant about to bite the dust. Asst. Professor Maria Sandusky brained this poor guy with a shovel while he was stuck in Soft Sand.

Professor Reginald Porter was able to corral this camel and ride it to victory.

The hero of our last game. Asst. Professor Chip Long was stabbed, shot, punched as well as being thrown from a truck and surviving it's subsequent explosion. He was finally rendered unconscious on the last turn of the game by the Bandit Executioner.


This grainey, out of focus shot catches the rare occurance
of two Pulp Game authors in one place. Howard Whitehouse
on the left and Richard A. Johnson on the right.
Shhhh... don't startle them, they're both packing heat!
