I actually ran a game of it on G+ a few years back as is. It was creaky but we house ruled it and I added in some agenda and principles to drive play.

But I’d like to take a stab at a more formal conversation or redesign.

If you aren’t familiar with the original game, take a look. It was designed for face to face play, but had a long life as play by post and then play by email. There are some nice early RPG mechanics in there.

Lovers of pulp fiction, men’s adventure, and the sad collision of ambition with reality might enjoy a 17 minute film called “A Gun For George,” a short film written, directed and starring Matthew Holness, the creator of Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace.

Holness has also set up a website about the pulp vigilante character created by the film short’s subject, Terry Finch. In the image below, Holness demonstrates his knack for hitting the right tone when coming up with book title names. You can find more faux pulp artifacts from “Terry Finch” at http://thereprisalizer.com/
