Stargrave: Dead or Alive

Autor: Joseph A. Mccullough

Número de Páginas: 97

A Stargrave supplement devoted to generating and running solo scenarios in which players hunt bounties across the Ravaged Galaxy... or perhaps become hunted themselves! It's hard to live with a price on your head, especially in the Ravaged Galaxy, where bounty hunters can be found on every planet. Most are amateurs, folk with a gun and an eye for a payday, but some are deadly professionals. A few aren't even motivated by the reward, but by vengeance, redemption, some notion of justice, or the pure thrill of the hunt. They're the truly dangerous ones. No matter what drives them, once a new bounty is posted, the hounds take up the chase and, more often than not, it all ends in violence... Dead or Alive gives Stargrave players all the tools they need to generate solo bounty-hunting scenarios, including a variety of different settings and locations, a host of complications to be faced, and, of course, a large rogues' gallery of unique outlaws. With the random scenario generators in this volume, players can set up a great number of games of Stargrave with no two being the same... all without an opponent!

The Mad, Bad and Dangerous Guide to Dead Or Alive and Pete Burns

Autor: Daniel Wheway

Número de Páginas: 72

Fronted by the androgynous Pete Burns, Dead Or Alive achieved their big break in 1984 with their UK Top 30 single That's The Way (I Like It) and its equally successful parent album Sophisticated Boom Boom. They would be the first two of eleven UK Top 30 records for the band, including following year's Lover Come Back To Me (#11), In Too Deep (#14) and You Spin Me Round (Like A Record) (#1). All three 1985 hits were yielded from their Gold-certified UK Top 10 album Youthquake.1986 saw the band score one of their five hit singles on the US Hot 100, with Brand New Lover (#15) - also a #1 on the US Dance Club Songs Chart - before they achieved further UK Top 20 hit Something In My House. Both were lifted from their Transatlantic hit album Mad, Bad and Dangerous To Know. Pete turned down a chance to tour with Madonna and stepped away from the spotlight to help his mother, who was given just months to live. Meanwhile, compilation/remix LP Rip It Up was issued to become a Top 5 success in Japan - a market which Dead Or Alive saw great success in throughout their career, including next single Turn Around & Count 2 Ten, which spent 17 weeks at #1 on the country's International singles...

Churchill Wanted Dead or Alive

Autor: Celia Sandys

“ . . . notable for its depiction of young Churchill, warts and all, as a very human character . . . .”—New York Times “A bestseller in the UK, this portrait of Winston Churchill, written by his granddaughter, unapologetically presents the future prime minister as an action hero in the Boer War. It’s rousing reading. Sandy’s affection for her grandfather is obvious, but she shows enough of his grandiosity to maintain a reader’s trust. . . . Sandys is fully aware of the extent to which her grandfather had a finger to the political winds during his exploits: he sought the limelight as aggressively as he chased adventure. Because of Sandys’s brisk narrative, as well as their knowledge of the man Churchill later became, readers will not hold young Winston’s ambition against him.”—Publishers Weekly “During his nine-month stint in South Africa, Churchill, though officially classified as a noncombatant reporter, managed to send stirring dispatches to the Morning Post, engage in several bloody skirmishes with the enemy, be captured and incarcerated as a prisoner of war, and make a suitably sensationalized, yet nonetheless daring, escape from prison.
