## Notes

This is a theme deck based upon Quentin Tarantino's magnum opus, Pulp Fiction. Like the movie, the deck includes scenes of violence and strong language and is not for people of a nervous disposition.
The deck is designed to work in multi-player games but, with three factions, may have resource problems at the start. Be aggressive in discarding cards and use the many neutral cards to get started. The exact number of each card is partly based upon what I had to hand but, being a Hood deck, it's a good idea to include as many avatars of Marsellus Wallace as you can lay your hands on - Mr. Big/Luis Camacho/Big Brother Tsien. If you don't have a White Ninja, you could substitute the Blade Freak or Nine Cuts but I don't recommend it <g>. The only thing I'm not sure about is whether Vladimir Kovalov would be better as the avatar of Winston Wolf. Stick 'em both in if you've got them and hope you get lucky ...
And if you find it less than perfect, remember the opening frames ...
PULP (pulp) n. 1. A soft, moist, shapeless mass or matter. 2. A magazine or book containing lurid subject matter and being characteristically printed on rough, unfinished paper.
Cue the music ...
