[QUOTE="HarryFlashman, post: 1347732, member: 16377"] Original Call of Cthulhu series are the definitive Roleplaying sourcebooks for the time period (though it is off by ten years). Other good sources are Gurps: Cliffhangers, their Pulp genre book and ICE's Rolemaster: Pulp Adventures. I heartily recomend Gurps as it has allof the crunchy bits one could ever hope for. Pertinent pages in the GURPS book are : 5-23, 88-94. Rolemaster: 9-20, 72-87 and several blurbs on the sides of pages. For an actual non-roleplaying book there are Historical Timeline books that detail inventions, the arts, politics etc I believe this is the book I am familiar with [url]http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0789489260/qid=1075692950//ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/103-2581527-8855804?v=glance&s=books&n=507846[/url] Otherworld Press has its "Forbidden Kingdoms" book but it delves too far into fantasy to be that useful as a reference book. How campy are you making this? Is this "Mom and Dad Save the Universe" type stuff? Or do the characters in your universe take themselves and their plights seriously? There are a few websites that have to do with the original Buck Rogers/Flash Gordon material: [url]http://www.fantasylibrary.com/lounge/pulp.htm[/url] [url]http://www.pulpzone.com/[/url] For minis [url]http://www.pulpfigures.com/[/url] [/QUOTE]
