We got to chat with the lovely people behind 7TV, Crooked Dice, and the new Pulp setting for the game which was done in conjunction with a team from Edge Hill University!

7Tv is one of those games that lets you be incredibly inventive and explore all different styles of scenario on the tabletop. It’s well worth checking them out for more details on the game!

Scenario idea – how about something on a zeppelin, fighting inside the balloon on catwalks, with the gas cells as LoS blockers which can be blown up if they get hit by stray weapons fire?

gazky

I would suggest a scenario but that image of the giant robot is the exact thing I want. That looks so amazing and I wish I could attend to pick up a copy.

jocke

Pulp is right up my alley…

rayzryr

Yes! Defenders of the Earth scenario! Flash Gordon, Mandrake the Magician, the Phantom!

lordreaver

This looks great, love the artwork.

darkspi

maybe the attack of the killer tomato

bigbadbazz

We all love Pulp

Doc Savage! or his spiritual sucessor Buckaroo Banzai

jmrecoil

Looks really good. Looking forward to trying this game.

goban

Snag a copy and bring it back to the beasts to play.

aea007

Good to see working with the next generation of games designers at the start of their education. Look forward to supporting them by buying it when I ge the opportunity

noyjatat

Love seeing the various old and new pop culture these guys explore with their game.

trinitty

Indie Jones would be nice to play with 7TV Pulp.

theonlypaulv

I know nothing about the game but this has made me want to pop in when im down tomorrow!

canis

Keep meaning to get into 7TV, great art and minis and the possibility to basically use any characters for games!

grodd1016

Pulp would be a great game to plan

pagan8th

Didn’t see this at expo which is a pity, as I would have picked it up, but I was only there for the day.

Pulp is always fun and any scenario set on a zeppelin or train just adds that cinematic feel.

gwtharg

cthulhu, flash gordon, giant robots yes please

shoop77

Mrs. Peel, we’re needed!

lukusbiriyani

such a great system, this looks a great implement

poland825

Zeppelins and robots should always go together

steviant

Been looking at this game for a while. Would love to play it manly because it is based on the tv show that I grew up with like Blake seven and sapphire and steel.

toocolddragon

Well well well! You will be seeing me tomorrow to buy a copy!

bobbybear06

Lovely look to this game. Artwork is brill x

lianjaus

seems like a fun and different mechanics

chargerse67

This game is very cool.

toricova

thi would love tho get minis of the artwork

jesusjaimesuseche

i would love to give this game a try

falerox

I love how versatile this system is, Lol make my own mercenary seas game.

duster

Fighting giant rampaging robots in a city is my scenario!

7TV seems like an interesting ruleset

hobbyhoo

I love Pulp Alley and Strange Aeons and I’ve always wanted to get some 7TV. The spirit is willing but the wallet is weak!

marktarver

Love me some pulp TV showdowns. Sure my “ectoplasmic” crew can appear in these scenarios too.

kjelken

I’ve been meaning to give 7tv a closer look, even if I might just be a generation to late to have grown up with all the pulpy tv shows it refers to.

cruciumgiger

Love 7TV!

bain1701

Love the look of this game. I think you would need some kind of classic Flash Gordon music to be playing in the background and Brian Blesseds ‘DIIIIIIIIIIIIIVEEEE’ keyed up and ready to go in the background. Got me very interested to see more about this game and all the support for it!!

tuffyears

looks good

radegast6

This screams Indiana Jones to me.

ghastly13

Ordered a copy ..can’t wait for my Kickstarter fills!

commissarmoody

Since I am on a French Indochina war kick. So maybe a scenario or campaign following a group of FFL deserters. (Maybe a senegalese tirailleur as a close combat expert. Vietnamese or mountain tribe guide.)
Who are on a quest to find a lost city in the jungle rumored to be full of treasury or some other mcguffin. Who are opposed by the Viet-minh, local tribe’s, and or a cursed jungle guardian of the city/treasure. Call it, “The lost Khmer star” or something. I am better with the ideas then the names.

timetraveller

Crooked Dice have always caught my eye. And such a range of different minis for all genre of games.

waxer

Nice addition to the base game of 7TV.

theamazingmrg

I backed the Kickstarter for just the models so will have some nice pulp models to play with soon. It would be nice to win the actual game so I can use that too!

Robert

Love Crooked Dice minis. Great wee company.

deadhead

looks like a great game

chilledenuff

So many pulp ideas! Definitely Tarzan, Flash Gordon, Film Noir style detective games. I can dig out all my old .45 adventure miniatures!

darthvegeta800

Got quite a few 7TV figures I use for a variety of skirmish games.
Always been curious about trying their rulesystem though.
Regardless, their figs are awesome.

dafthelmet85

Looks ace.

zorg

that all the classic TV shows covered then gaming.

while

The stuff looks really fun!

skodamarine

I’ve been to the expo today…. Utterly gutted that I missed the crooked dice.stand!.

shredhead

The 7TV guys are such a creative bunch! I love their minis, sad I have no one to try out their rules system with.

phaidknott

The ONE miniature EVERYONE should own HAS to be the resin Gorilla they do, I’ve never seen a finer example of Monkeydom (or I guess it’s Apedom if I’m going to be correct) in miniature. Useful for Pulp, Frostgrave, well everything really 🙂

eion755

Cool stuff as always from 7tv. Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow would fit right in

lorddraconum

7tv looks like a great rules system with lots of options. You could do a Masters of the Multiverse are transported to a world to battle their evil counterparts.

quixol

This is the best thing I have seen coming out of the show. As for scenario, I would start small, but then go big. A simple find an arcane book, takes you to a book store. WHen you get inside, and deal with the cagey eccentric store owner, the store is under siege from some nefarious gang. THere is no escape, but the store owner opens a book and casts some spell or arcane ritual, weird waving of the hands, and says RUN, into the portal that takes you to wherever would be fun next…lets start with Dinosaurs…a quick encounter where faced with a menace there, and then from behind comes the nefarious gang. Store owner “Didnt you close the book as you went through the portal?” PCs” You never said I needed to close the book, you just said run!” Store owner “Its owning polite to close the door when you enter a room. Where were you brought up?”

So now the PCs have a three way fight, with a gang and dinosaurs. Next up, is another portal, if they make it. In the end the store owner gets captured and now the PCs will have to see if they can rescue him, and finally get paid for retrieving the book…assuming the person who requested it, isnt another source of evil.

paperwarrior

Pulp adventures. How about a daring fight in a paper factory!

darkdanegan

The Crooked Dice stand is just choc full of amazing looking models, I really need to look closer at 7TV, it’s not something I seem to come across between Expo’s. I’m interested to see what the University collaboration innovated for the game.

noisysteve

One of my favourite companies. Buy the minis, then work out a setting to use them in. EASY!

rum8le

There are just so many scenarios which could b eplayed out here. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to play one

lawnor

I’ve never tried any of their stuff, but I always love seeing new Crooked Dice products. Tehy’re always so cool.

groovicron

Oh hello.

zorkham

Interesting.

tanath

I love the old skool look to their miniature range. Always have been tempted to try their games.

preewarsalad

7TV seems like endless fun.

benkku

This looks interesting

kbog

Pulp is always good – and the options are endless if you have enough imagination, or a really good 70-90’s collection of TV series

blackspiral

Cool looking stuff. 7tv has always had the quirkiest ideas and I love the whole TV show concept!

yorick

Maybe Indy vs the Myhos?

laughingboy

I on purpose did not go into the 7TV stand because I knew I would walk out with many shiny things and right now I need fewer projects, not more… maybe I will get lucky and win something.

fireblarney

Looks like a great addition to the 7TV family, one of our favourite’s here.

petey9

Ive always been interested in finding an excuse to try 7tv. It sounds so flexible and creative.

redbread25

very interesting game.

jax78

Love the setting of this game. Having it as a TV show gives limitless possibilities.

coubs

I love that they do a Danger 5 set of minis too. Right up my street. So annoyed that I couldn’t make it up there this year to have a proper look and maybe grab the box.

tomrr

Now that looks like a game I could buy..

mtgamer

I like the Flash Gordon feel.

wormfooduk

This is the game that could well bankrupt me. The painted miniature they had on there stand were gorgeous. Plus I love making terrain boards and you can almost do any style in the 7tv system. makes me really excited to do some Indiana Jones style adventure terrain. Excellent stuff

ugleb

I really should find out more on how 7tv plays

panzerkaput

I love the idea and it would work so well for Very British Civil War

shanewookiee

Looks fun

sheepman

This looks great. FLASH!

janus1004

Looks good!

tomsche69

Karl does it again, really love 7TV even back when they launched with the Dr Who free download game

astralwraith

going to have to pick this up to go with 7TV and 7Tv apocalypse

babone

Love the settings, would really like to try this out.

somegeezer

7TV has some of the best ideas for settings around. Great stuff!

guillotine

I was so tempted to get the Pulp box. It would a fantastic new use for gangsters collection. Perhaps mix it up alternate history German invasion of the U.S.? I’ll probably end up ordering a set when I get bit more time to plan games…

mortenius

I always wanted to play something like Indiana Jones adventure, I think that Evil priest is from Temple of Doom 😛

phoenixris

Nice mini’s
