  1. I don’t know the answer but this would be awesome!
  2. Welcome to the madness Syssiah! Glad to have you here!
  3. Welcom Pyram King! And I don't think you will regret choosing BRP!
  4. I don’t know how they compare to HPHLS but you can get The Haunting props on DriveThruRPG at https://www.drivethrurpg.com/m/product/349979. They’re are other competing products on DriveThruRPG also, but I found these to be the cream of the crop. Recommended! * One clarification this product comprises digital files that need to be printed out and thus, unless you do something special, will not look weathered, torn or stained. I just realized that’s probably what distinguishes HPHLS. Since I play online with discord all I need is digital files but others may need more!
  5. You know, I think Mongoose did a RuneQuest Newton book. Has anyone seen it? Is it any good?
  6. I’ve had the BGB (in hardback no less) since 2015. It and my two copies of Magic World are my most heavily used books though an honorable mention also goes to Delta Green
  7. Oooh, a topic I have been investigating myself lately. Here are a few of my favorites (in no particular order): The Teeth of Gwahlur (Conan) D&D adaption of Robert E. Howard story. The party hears about the legendary Jewels of Gwahlur and have travelled to the mythic kingdom of Kush to see if they can get them. However, the players are not the only party to seek the treasure. Story involves overland travel, travel to a mythical country, ancient city, natural dangers combat and investigation skills. I really like this one and it’s east to adapt to BRP or Magic World. It’s also free, get it here -> https://hyboria.xoth.net/adventures/wc_The_Teeth_of_Gwahlur.pdf. Will probably need to use heroic hitpoints to make this work. Reality Check (D20 Modern) A young reporter has gone missing while investigating a strange industrial facility in the mountains. What happened to her, and what does the mysterious company called UberCorp have to do with her disappearance? This is a really good adventure including both investigation and combat aspects well suited to a Fringeworthy or SG1 type game plus it’s easy to adapt to BRP or Magic World. A couple of caveats though… This is the first part of a planned eight sessions and the other sessions will never come (because D20 Modern is canceled). However, the adventure is complete unto itself so you won’t have any troubles there. For best results GM to should read the web supplement Project Javelin: A Campaign Primer which is a setting describing cross-dimensional, technically advanced NAZIS. It’s free but not particularly easy to find (I think it’s on the wayback machine) but I can email it to you if desired. Foul Weather (D20 Modern) Four years ago, the I.S.S Beagle was sent out to chart a habitable planet in the 14 Herculis system but after 3 months the ship ceased communications with earth. Two years ago, Robert Ender, Owner of the salvage ship End’s Run arrived at 14 Herculis and set out to salvage I.S.S Beagle; Earth soon lost communications with him as well. Now your ship has been dispatched to find out what happened and to rescue any survivors. Lots of room for social conflict and combat with just a little bit of investigation. This adventure does require skills for zero-g combat, vac-suit, navigation, computers, and weaponry. I used straight BRP and just added a sci-fi skill set but it might be best to use either M-Space or World’s Beyond. Free but hard to find on the archive. PM me if you want it. Trail of the Gold Spike (Justice Inc) The Gold Spike Mining Company is under siege by a mysterious mastermind known as the Condor. The Condor has arranged several accidents and mishaps for the company, with the intent of forcing management to abandon the site. Truly awesome and excellent pulp adventure in the vein of Doc Savage. Has potential for players to be straffed by biplanes, fly biplanes, fight on conveyor belts leading to a furnace. Features the "pale" ones and a Condor hideout. Costs $5.00 on DrivethruRPG but absolutely worth it. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/257102/Trail-of-the-Gold-Spike-3rd-Edition. Note you will need to pulp up your BRP or Magic World game with heroic hitpoints, a modern skill set and luck points. Frozen City of Terror (Hollow Earth Expedition, Perils of the Surface World) It’s 1936 and an expedition to the south pole looking for an Atlantean artifact goes silent. Are the NAZIs responsible or has something else gone wrong? Investigators will trek across the south pole to ultimately uncover an ancient city and terrors. I think this is only available in print but the whole book is good. The plot is combat and adrenaline intensive I used Call of Cthulhu for the base. You are going to need heroic hit points and luck. PX Poker Night (Delta Green) Not sure if you are including Delta Green as BRP but regardless you should look this scenario up. You play lowly Air Force non-commissioned officers living on Platte AFB in Nebraska and decommissioning old aircraft, when aliens come to call – and the government is behind it. Short but super fun adventure. Free on DrivethruRPG https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/112460/Delta-Green-PX-Poker-Night. Massacre on Cass Avenue (Bureau 13) Nearly forgot this one but it would have been a shame because it's the finest monster of the week type scenario that I know of. This scenario begins with the Bureau alerting the party to a potential vampire attack in Detroit. That turns out to be true but there is so much more than that going on. The party must find the source of the sudden influx of all types of monsters and stop it at the source. This is a pure investigation scenario as attempts to deal with the supernatural with violence will likely lead to failure. Easily suited to any BRP game as long as it has a mechanism for sanity so perhaps Call of Cthulhu or Delta Green. We used Delta Green with great results, much better than the Tri-Tac system that Bureau 13 normally uses. You can find Hellsnight here -> https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/291226/Bureau-13-Stalking-the-Night-Fantastic--Hellsnight. Easily worth $9 or $10.
  8. Ooooh, could you tell us a little about it? I love x-files type stuff!
  9. Oh I’m sorry Ragr, I didn’t initially pay attention to who posted this. However I don’t think I can as I expect to start a new contract soon. Good luck finding someone though!
  10. I’d be happy to see you hack it though Worlds Beyond is now back in production from, I think, Précis Media. Also you might want to see if you can find BRP Space the predecessors to M-Space.
  11. You didn't ask for this, but it strikes me that the pulp genre probably has a lot of games that meet your description that could easily be adapted to Pulp Cthulhu (with a little bit of work). First among these would be Steven Long's Inner Earth for Pulp Hero but there is also Lost World Tales for Daredevil Games. Lastly there is Castaways on the Inner Seas for Hollow Earth Expedition (HEX). Actually there is probably several applicable HEX scenarios since that is what the game focuses on.
  12. I haven’t read it but Pagan published Mysteries of Mesoamerica that has 4 scenarios that might include jungles. See https://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/15/15691.phtml
  13. They released the Magic World core rules book and one supplement called Advanced Sorcery.
  14. I am not an advanced Delta Green player. To date I have read the agents book and played maybe 20 games. With that background I would point out that there is zero balance in this game. In every fight with the mythos we have been in, it was all we could do to survive - not win. Even facing human adversaries there wasn’t much balance as it often comes down to who gets the drop on who and if automatic weapons are in play. Just though you might want to know.
  15. Who knows why people cheat? But it makes you wonder if people cheated in past contest too as they have been held since 2005 or so.
  16. It's not in print anymore but the definitive guide on Victorian equipment is probably "... and a 10-foot Pole". It was written for Rolemaster but it's perfect for for CoC and many other RPGs. It is exceptionally useful. See https://smile.amazon.com/10-Foot-Pole-Rolemaster-Standard-System/dp/1558063706/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1T2GINZPH7OI1&keywords=and+a+10-foot+pole&qid=1640163967&s=books&sprefix=and+a+10-foot+pole%2Cstripbooks%2C71&sr=1-1
  17. I’m not sure but It was suggested that some people had found a way to vote more than once.
