1937: The Abyssinia Affair

A historical pulp-era roleplaying setting set in 1937, as war gathers over Europe and Africa. When an Ohio professor is abducted and an ancient Ethiopian artifact is stolen from the British Museum, his children pursue the connected mysteries across rural Ohio, New York, London, Paris, Munich, Venice, Egypt, Sudan, and Italian-occupied Ethiopia. The book provides period technology and culture, locations, characters, encounters, quick-roll tables, and an adaptable adventure framework for traditional roleplaying systems. It includes no game mechanics and is intended for use with a separate rules system.
