[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5230596, member: 19675"] There's all kinds of stuff that can happen in pulp. With the Nazis & Martians, you've got all kinds of people looking for all kinds of artifacts. Odds are high that they'll be in [LIST=1] [*]ultra-remote environments- hidden mountain cities like Shangri-la in the Himalayas, Arctic enclaves of Martian thralls, or lost temples in the jungles of South America, Africa, Asia or maybe even uncharted islands. [*]Private collections of the very wealthy. Cue high-society event with either a sneak-thief who must be caught or an armed invasion with hostages. [*]Major museums like the British Museum of Natural History, the Armory at Leeds, the Smithsonian, the Louvre, the Hermitage, or even the Vatican. [/LIST] Then there is incidental stuff.
