WHAP Deluxe Pulp Adventure System

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Travel to exotic locales and the darkest corners of the human heart in search of adventure!  WHAP's simple, straightforward rules will inspire you, get you going, and then get out of your way while you play a masked crime-fighter, brilliant scientist, hard-boiled snoop, uncanny mystic, sure-shot gunslinger, or any other type you can come up with.

This is the deluxe upgraded Wildly Heroic Action Pulp (WHAP) system for Tom's Adventure Gaming, designed for Western, Steampunk, High Adventure, and other cliffhanger staples. Built from the Tom's Adventure Gaming (TAG) system, it includes all the rules you need to get started playing.

This product also includes "The Wobble Machine," an introductory adventure that shows you just how far WHAP can take you.

Have to agree. Poorly written and overpriced. Playable, barely, but why bother when there are so many alternatives which are superior? BRP, of course, comes to mind, but there have been so many GOOD pulp RPGs, why bother with such a weak entry? At best [...]

Full Disclosure: I am a long-distance friend of the Peryton Publishing crowd. While I may have a little personal bias, my correspondence with Tom developed originally from my playing this game at Gen Con (2009) and enjoying it, so I think I can still [...]

WHAP is a bare-bones, almost no "flesh" quasi-ruleset for playing pulp action adventures that would date from the 1860s to the 1930s. This is a short, 50 page book that is severely over-priced. When I downloaded the product, it didn't even co [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
