This is a supplement for the GASLIGHT miniature wargame, and is a great deal of fun. The GASLIGHT rules are a straightforward, flexible ruleset for playing "Victorian Science Fiction" and steampunk type battles, but with this supplement your characters are thrust into the wild pulp adventures of the 1920's and 30's serials. Note, you need the basic GASLIGHT rules, or the Expeditions By Gaslight rules to use this supplement. To Be Continued... lets you recreate the pulp serial adventures that were a mainstay of picture theatres a few (dozen) decades ago, and are intended to help you create your own 12-part serial on the tabletop. The game is quite comprehensive in what it covers - everything from outrageous props, swooning sidekicks, monsters from mars and space travel. It guides you in creating your serial, and offers plenty of advice along the way ("Does anybody die in this game?"). It is liberally illustrated with stills from classic pulp serials, and lots of authentic-sounding quotes from serial movie directors. It is a lot of fun to read. It is not all fantastic, though. The layout is not particularly inspiring, being single column with headings that often spill all over the place, and looks pretty much like a word document. Perhaps more frustrating is there are no hyperlinks or even bookmarks, making it tedious to search through. If you like the GASLIGHT rules, and enjoy your pulp adventure with tongue firmly planted in cheek, this is certainly worth checking out.
