Decoder request

[HeroGM]

I lost my Decoder ring from when I originally ordered Pulp Hero. Can someone post it here or in pm please?

 

My little orphan Annie depends on it! And olvatine!

 

[Tjack]

Don’t bother, every message was some version of “Buy Ovaltine”.   Her and Captain Midnight both!

[HeroGM]

No one?

[HeroGM]

Got the letters with the help of a friend. Now just need the numbers.

I had the same problem. Had to go back look at my notes.

The Secret League of Heroes decoder ring uses a fixed decipher,

1 is always R and 26 is always V. 

I found in early postings  the moderators prefer that we do not give a complete translation. So here’s the best I can do.

 

If you have a copy of The Malay Coins Adventurer. ( for Pulp Hero )

the opening paragraph is,

                      Greetings Secret Leaguer,
             while you’re in Shanghai for this scenario 

             You might what to stay at the local branch of

                            The Empire Club.

 This will give you most of the letters Except for a few odd ducks.

                   ( 4=D  6=K 10=Q 16=P 19=J 21=X 22=Z)

if you’re using the same adventure but for the Thrilling Tales ( Savage Worlds )

They use a rotating cipher the letters placement are fixed but the numbers rotate.

You will need a Capt. Midnight Secret Squadron decoder badge 1941 edition.

Which you can find  multiple pictures of online.

  
                  5-7-16-2 14-5-18-15 2-3-15 5-8-23-16-7-11-23.

Thanks for the answer. I'll take a look for the Capt. Midnight ring. 

 

I had that big ol' hunk of plastic ring when I brought Pulp way back when as part of the Con order when it first came out. Unfortunately it was lost when I went to prison

[Duke Bushido]

Man, that sucks.

 

I mean-- I never had one: I had no hope in Hell of ever getting to a con, and that seemed to be key to getting one, so I was bummed from day one.

 

But to have had one then lost it....   That sucks, Dude.

 

It doesn't help, but you have my empathy. 

 

 

[HeroGM]

Can anyone post a message in code with X or Z? Only two I'm missing. That or direct me to a book that has those letters in a code?

 

Please and Thank you

[HeroGM]

Mr. Long was gracious enough to have sent me this and it arrived on the mail today.

 

Thank you again.

I am sorry to interrupt this topic, but I try very hard to never miss an opportunity to thank Shadowcat for my paper copy of Traveller HERO.

 

Thanks again, 'Cat.
