Sins of Our Fathers
a Pulp Action Adventure


You are a member of the Gabriel Holmes Company, an elite group of men and women from all walks of life. These rare individuals are called on to preserve all that is good in the world. Not restricted by the bureaucracy of government they are able to effectively take care of threats using whatever means they deem necessary. You are among the third generation of families recruited to the Company's cause.

Inspiration for the game: The Indiana Jones movies, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow plus countless pulp novels.

This game uses the Hollow Earth Expedition (HEX) Ubiquity rules system. No prior knowledge of the rules is needed to play. Just bring your imagination and sense of wonder to the table. And maybe a pencil.

There will be 6 slots for this game.

EDIT: I very much prefer to run in an afternoon/evening slot. :)

I would take myself off on possible. It highly depends on the niceness of someone else providing a vehicle, and it looks like there all ready is a bunch of PULPINESS there, so I shall resend. Don't want to make promises that I can't keep/too much of a crowd.

This may be the first Boston Gameday that I want to play in literally every game on the list. Where is my cloning technology? Won't someone think of the gamers?!?!?!

I'm possibly attending, and possibly running something steampunk'y (maybe an indie something like Lady Blackbird, possibly some HEX).
