Name the new pulp game contest.

My draft for BoL-Pulp was just given the "green light". Now I need to find a better name than "BoL-Pulp".
So help me find a name for BoL-Pulp and win a hard-copy of it when it comes out. Send me your entries. contest ends when I find a name I like.

Witness my frustration while trying out names...

  1. How many suggestions can we make? Cuz I'll make a hundred if you don't stop me:

    BadVenture
    Planet Peril
    Three-fisted Fights
    Lost, Whirled, Tails
    Crackshots and Crackpots
    Weird Rolls
    Peril L Universe
    Broken Nose and Body Blows
    Vance by the Pants

    Okay, okay. I'm getting punchy.

  2. Cliffhangers of Doom
    Cliffhanger Classics

    Or anything using the word "cliffhangers". It's surprisingly underused in pulp gaming.

    I'm probably no good at this but I'll have a go at it anyway. I think the name shouldn't be too wildly original or it won't be recognizable for what it is.

    Perils from the Pulps

  8. Precis Intermedia already did Two-Fisted Tales (and not a bad game, either!).

    I was going to come back and suggest "Dangerous Days", but I do like Jason's "___ ___, Dangerous Dames". "Daredevils of ____" seems like an ideal approach as well, to emphasize what system. "Daredevils and Dangerous Dames"?

    word verif: samag... "Daredevils of Samagia"?

  16. HA! Drew had T.H.A. before me--I guess I should look at the comments next time before entering! It is a great name though, hopefully not already in use. A few others to make up for my pulp name pilfering:

    Guts for Glory
    Hearts of Steel (to go along with Legends of Steel)
    Tales of Gold and Glory

  22. We have a Winner!
    Thanks for all the input guys!
    This list is definitely a keeper (and any titles used in the future will see their creators rewarded as well).
    After much debate we settled on a title submitted By Jason Chalker.

    Look out for it when its ready for release.
    Again guys, thanks for all the brainstorming.
