THE GREAT ROBOT MENACE OF 1939

This project is an adventurous romp through a pulp-era, alternate-Earth where characters of fiction are real, using Castle Falkenstein rules for the RPG stages and War Rocket rules for the miniatures stages. Players control one of eight members of an American team recruited by original League member, Orlando, and attempt to stop the menace of giant, marauding robots that are threatening major cities around the globe! Team members include: The Shadow, Hugo Danner, The Sandman, Flash Gordon, Doc Savage, The Girl With the X-Ray Eyes, The Green Hornet and Kato, with special appearances by Mina, Dorian, Quatermain, Sky Captain, Operator No. 5 and more.
