For H.P. Lovecraft & Call of Cthulhu
|
|
The first product from the recent round of new Call of Cthulhu licensees has been released. Murder of Crows written by Stan! (yes there is an exclamation mark there) and published by Super Genius Games, has been made available as a PDF via RPGNOW, nominally priced at $7.99 (US). A print version will also be available soon priced at $12 (US).
I saw an advance copy of this Classic-era adventure at the recent Continuum convention Yog Meet. The PDF features the light use of colour, however at $12 (US) I'm going to infer that the print product will be a colour cover with black & white interior.
- and so a new era of Call of Cthulhu material begins! |

Chaosium have just released two new Call of Cthulhu monographs in PDF format, Once Men and Kingdom of the Blind. Unlike other recent PDF monograph releases, these two hefty MULAs (coming in at 184 & 136 pages respectively) will also be available later in the Summer as print versions.
Once Men, written by Dr. Michael C. LaBossiere, delivers science fiction rules for Call of Cthulhu along with four adventures set in the future.
Kingdom of the Blind by Anthony Warren is a guidebook for the United Kingdom in the 20s & 30s; something that's been sorely missed since Games Workshop's 1987 publication of Green & Pleasant Land. |

After a year and a half, 34 episodes and more than 3 days of continuous audio recording, the Bradford Players have just completed Chaosium's classic Call of Cthulhu campaign, Horror on the Orient Express.
On general release right now is episode #31 ("Blood, Sweat & Tears") with the investigators exploring the steamy side of the Turkish Baths in Constantinople.
Recorded in Binaural 3D Surround Sound, you can listen in at the table as if you were in the middle of it. So if you've ever been curious about the campaign or are eagerly awaiting the rumoured planned re-issue, feel free to listen in and join the Yoggie crew on the journey, from the comfort of your own MP3 player.
YSDC Patrons can now also download the concluding episodes of the campaign. |

Chaosium have released another PDF-only monograph for Call of Cthulhu, The Vault by Andre Kruppa (also author of the first PDF-only monograph, Rise of the Dead).
The Vault is a CoC Classic-era (1927) adventure with investigators opening a cryptic vault. It's designed for 4-6 players and is labelled as "not for the squeamish"!
The PDF comes in at 76 pages for $10.95 (US). |

The R'lyeh Report

Transmitted by Dustin Wright of the Leng Embassy.

All the new licences for Call of Cthulhu that Chaosium has been granting have got people quite excited about the future of CoC. There's yet more excitement at the recent announcement that Reality Blurs: Game Design Studio has obtained a licence to use Call of Cthulhu in conjunction with the popular Savage Worlds system (produced by the Pinnacle Entertainment Group), creating Realms of Cthulhu.
Savage Worlds has a reputation as a fast free-flowing system that may be particularly suited to Pulp-style play. For those not familiar with this system, the Explorer's Edition of the rules set (paperback, full colour) is available for only $9.95 (US).
No material or release dates have been set yet, but definitely one to keep an eye on. If you'd like to discuss this further, feel free to join in the following thread on YSDC: Savage Worlds- Realms of Cthulhu.
