Which pulp adventure-style RPG's are out there now?

[Goodsport]

&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Since both of these Indiana Jones roleplaying games have long been out of print...


The Adventures of Indiana Jones (TSR - 1984)

The World of Indiana Jones (West End Games - 1994)

&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp ... there has been precious little out there in terms of pulp adventure roleplaying games. http://smilies.networkessence.net/s/contrib/unknown/face9.gif

&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp However, not all hope is lost - there are some currently out there that, while not having the Indiana Jones brand, still evoke the spirit of pulp adventure that is Indiana Jones. http://home.pacbell.net/torvic1/rotatingface.gif

&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp The two that I'm currently aware of are:


Adventure! (http://www.white-wolf.com/Games/Pages/Adventure.html) (White Wolf Publishing - 2001)

http://www.pen-paper.net/images/rpgdb/ww09350.jpg


GURPS Cliffhangers, Second Edition (http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/Cliffhangers/) (Steve Jackson Games - 2002)*

&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Has anyone else here played these games? And what other pulp adventure RPG's are out there?

* GURPS Cliffhangers, First Edition (also by Steve Jackson Games) was released in 1989, but has long since been out of print.

Hey Goodsport,

I never really figured out how to play those games.
But I do have many of the West End books.

Hey Gregoire Defence,

&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp I found a good source that shows which books came out for both Indiana Jones RPG lines (TSR and West End Games):


The Adventures of Indiana Jones (TSR) (http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e9125985/IJC/Games/RPG/RPG_TSR.htm)
The World of Indiana Jones (West End Games - Page 1) (http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e9125985/IJC/Games/RPG/RPG_WEG1.htm)
The World of Indiana Jones (West End Games - Page 2) (http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e9125985/IJC/Games/RPG/RPG_WEG2.htm)


&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp I hope that helped! :)

P.S. = Halfway through the West End run, the game-system was changed from the Masterbook System to the D6 System (for the better, in my opinion, as the D6 System was more suited for fast-paced Indiana Jones action than the Masterbook System was), so it wouldn't hurt to obtain the D6 System Rulebook (http://www.westendgames.com/html/plyd6-2.html) as well. ;)
