  1. A great man passes. We are all poorer for that but richer for his writing and words. My SCA buddies miss him also. Fare Well Steve
  2. I'll admit I'd love to cover the entire town. And Boldholme. And Nochet. And Refuge. And.....
  3. I have a silver wine bowl given to us on our wedding day, by another RQ GM as chance would have it 😉
  4. Of course a lot of people change clan when they get married. If they stay within the same Tribe (as I would suppose often happens) this means a lot of people have strong interclan and tribal feelings as well!
  5. That's fair. I mean I earn a sizeable chunk of my income from writing these things myself. But also when I am running a lot of games _I don't have time to write everything myself_ One of the ways forward for those wanting to run Modern(ish) CoC is to look at Delta Green, The Laundry Files (excellent) or the forthcoming Rivers of London games. These really help you. Its not that there isnt any modern CoC so much as there is SO much they split off to form their own game systems. I'm running a Rivers of London adjacent game myself currently and it might even make it's way to the Miskatonic or Chaosium shelves in the future.
  6. The starter set will touch on this I expect, but this could easily be the core of an entire campaign. I mean the Wulf lands are right _there_ and they are crying out for someone to take them post dragonrise.
  7. Really don't want to abuse any privilege and steal any of Jeff or Jason's thunder however I think it's a pretty fair guess.
  8. The starter set is very likely to deal with what happened to the Wulfsland and include an updated history on that I would hazard a guess.
  9. Since when was 40 years ago modern? 😉 The tools are there to run modern stuff. I actualy do run a modern Cthulhu adjacent game (rather more Dresden/Rivers of London inspired) set in 2019 (just pre pandemic). Part of the reason you dont need so much background material to run in this period is :- Google. Its just there man. I set mine around my local area of Cornwall as a)I know it like the back of my hand and b)all but one of my players dont and c)Arthur and Celtic legend make great source material. So when I describe a location to my players :- They go street view it. When I describe a restaurant they go look at its website. And so on. All you need are the core rules and google and your good to go 🙂
  10. Having had a peek, there's loads in there the old hands will want and as Rick just said they wont be loosing out on selling it to us old fans. Having seen bits of it I certainly intent buying it the second I can.
  11. I don't think they will be revisiting the core book or providing updates to it anytime soon. I am pretty sure that the Equipment book will add loads of stuff you could homebrew in instead of what is presented in the Core book however. I run and play a lot of RQ games and I've never noticed those lists being particularly restricting or had any players complain about it so I would guess there isn't a large appetite for that?
  12. I think Dorastor is a little much for new folks whereas Prax and the Borderlands is such a great setting and leads into the 90's Sun County etc Personally however I think I'd be looking at the new RQG Gm Pack, TSR and PP and the forthcoming starter set. Why take a backseat to the hero wars when you can be at ground zero?
  13. I'd just like to add that I'm spooling up to run this now and its REALLY REALLY good.
  14. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/331340/A-Tale-of-Woodcraft?affiliate_id=205935 A drop in adventure suitable for any Sartarite campaign
  15. Here's a preview from the next BeerWithTeeth production. Organically grown armour
