Thanks 👍

Hi, EST(EDT) zone. Hope this works)

I hear you...

I read the the first adventure, Rough Landing, has the characters opposing the Lunar Empire. Are there adventures made were characters are supporting the Lunar Empire?

All new at this game🤣

I was seriously thinking about buying the RQ rules and Glorantha complete set. I really want to run RQ with my old group, around the table, CoC players. But before that can happen I like to play the game numerous times to get use to rules and Glorantha. 

So, are there any online games to join? Either one shots or a campaign. Willing to commit to a long term campaign if anyone running one.

WOW...those suggestions are both going to be used! I bought the Doors of Darkness awhile back. So, going to look for that adventure. Also, the Arkham Gazette is on my to order list. I didn't know those gazettes existed.

Thanks 👍

After a few years off from gaming I am getting my old group, along with some new players, together to play Runequest and CoC. Also, Dungeon crawl classic Lankhmar campaign.

But for now I will be returning to the source book by Chaosium.... Arkham Unveiled.

I ran most the adventures that were included in the book, a few years ago, but now need different ones.

Looking to start my investigators in Arkham Unveiled and now need new adventures for them that are in/around the city.

Using 7th edition rules and know I can adjust for earlier editions if needing. Any suggestions or have a few different adventures that I could use?

Thanks

Me and my oldest son (26), would love to play. I been running CoC  games for about 11 years now and have many of the core books (7th Edition) along with some pre-generated adventures. When do you plan on starting and is it a pre-generated adventure or home brew? We live in Ohio....

There are better ones out there, but they are for fantasy worlds. Some of the SciFi RPGs have some good stuff on world building. But with fantasy, a lot of real world stuff doesn't always apply. For instance Glorantha really is flat.

Can you tell me what some of the others are, that are better, for fantasy world building?

I consider myself to be very creative but would like a good book to read explaining how to build a fantasy world. Like the various types of land formations, weather patterns and other advice to help best make the map somewhat believable. I heard about this one, KOBOLD Guide to Worldbuilding, but there must be others..unless it is the best.

Nice mini-review of Dark Streets ... "Speaking of Cthulhu-related gaming stuff, I wanted to mention that my favourite RPG book of 2013 so far is (hands down) Dark Streets from Cakebread and Walton."

Akratic Wizardry: Dark Streets

Any word as to when it will be ready for sale, print form, in the USA? I ordered the RENAISSANCE DELUXE rule book and read it three times already. Now I just need Dark Streets and my Call of Cthulhu group will be ready to play.

Check out this new Sci-fi game. Cold & Dark | Wicked World Games It combines all the elements of what a good sci-fi needs to have...IMHO))

Yep...it is down and out.

I thought these guys went out of business some time ago but I am wrong. My choices of a SciFi rpg just increased by one. They must have one mean and nasty combat system in HARP Sci-Fi. HARP-SF | Just another Iron Crown Enterprises site and HARP Sci-Fi extreme Harp SF Xtreme - Guild Companion Publications | HARP & HARP SF | DriveThruRPG.com

Yes, but I have to admit that I did not like it. There is no problem with the game system,

but the setting has a strong transhumanist touch, too much of it for my more old fashio-

ned science fiction taste.

So you would like game like Traveller better. But if human race technology keeps advancing at such a pace, as it is now, I fear that an Eclipse Phase transhumanist future is our destiny. But I agree with you the whole tanshuman thing, in gaame, kind of makes me question the games fun.

But no matter what...it is real hardcore sci-fi!

Cthulhu Rising is a deep space setting in which the PC astronauts encounter creatures of the Mythos, since deep space is where the baddies came from in the first place. Cthulhu Tech is more of an Earth-based setting of monsters vs. giant robots. Think Toho's Godzilla task force, only they're fighting Mythos critters instead of Japanese kaiju.

If the existing BRP sci-fi material doesn't suit, you can't go wrong with Traveller. It was "the" science fiction game in the same way Call of Cthulhu was "the" horror game. Also take a look at Rocket Rangers!, a free pulp sci-fi setting I wrote for Mini Six, available for download at AntiPaladin Games. Compared to BRP and even Traveller, Mini Six is pretty quick and dirty, and it uses regular six-sided dice. You can be up and playing in a few minutes. Also consider Legends of Time and Space, another freebie for download at www.darkcitygames.com. It is based on the old The Fantasy Trip, only four pages long, and the free adventure provides basic spaceship combat rules. Another easy to learn and play rule set.

Thanks for the information. One of my players brought this to my attention, The Game | Eclipse Phase, and it looks real Sci-fi hardcore!

Cthulhu Rising is a great hard science fiction game, very ALIENS like and it is posible to completely ignore the Cthulhu mythos stuff. It has good psionics rules too.

So, what is the difference between Cthulhu Rising and Cthulhu Tech?

Let's not forget these two beauties from Fantasy Flight Games... Fantasy Flight Games [star Wars: Edge of the Empire Beginner Game - Products] - Leading publisher of board, card, and roleplaying games. and the massive book that is soon to be released... Fantasy Flight Games [star Wars: Edge of the Empire - Products] - Leading publisher of board, card, and roleplaying games.

A very good choice. Steve Jackson Games made exactly the same one since GURPS Traveller is published out and well supported by its authors as well as its fans.

Will you use it with its own rules or convert it to the BRPS system?

From what I gathered so far there is no need to use the BRP rules for Traveller. The game has been proven worthy, as rpg, for over 30 years now. But I might tweak some of the combat to add hit locations like in the BRP book.

I think I have already made up my mind as to what Sci-fi based rpg to buy. Seeing that nothing substantial, in the way of a BRP Sci-fi rpg, is out I have picked Traveller. There are tons of neat stuff for it and it combines my favorites...Space 1999, Aliens movies, Martian Chronicals, Dune and Dead Space pc game series!

Starting with the core rule book, Traveller Core Rulebook - Core Rulebooks & Accessories - Traveller - RPGs, buying the DM screen, Referee's Screen - Core Rulebooks & Accessories - Traveller - RPGs , and the campaign setting The Spinward Marches - The Third Imperium - Traveller - RPGs . Later will add some other books but this is plenty to start from)))

When is the Rivers of Heavens game to be released, and what makes it so good? I can not anything about it on the web.

Hmmm ...

Fractured Hopes Chaosium Inc.

Chaosium Inc.

Chaosium Inc.

Outpost 19 Chaosium Inc.

Operation Ulysses PDF Chaosium Inc.

So, not as many as I'd hoped but a few. In addition to River of Heaven, there's also the pending BRP Mecha by Alephtar Games. Interplanetary has been in the works for a loooooong time now, but its author says he's still plugging away on it.

Not really into the Cthulhu in space theme. I run plenty of CoC games and not looking for more of the same stuff. The other links were just adventures not actual game rules. Sure you could play around with adding some of the BRP core rules to them to make a semi playable game but I am interested in a finished Sci-Fi rpg rules book and now I find out there is none for BRP.

Might try Traveller or Rogue Trader. Was looking for a game that combined my favorits...Space 1999, Aliens and Deap Space pc games...

Hello

Is there a Sci-Fi based rpg based off the BRP core rules? I am looking for one that is activly supported...company still produces stuff for it. Also, not looking for a Sci-Fi game that has elves, dwarves and orcs in space:7 Shadowrun looked good until I saw the orc characters((((

I just finished running Call of Cthulhu using Chaosiums 1920s 6e. My group has been playing it for 6+ years now and need a CoC campaign change. We will be getting the print versions of Dark Streets and Renaissance Deluxe. I just hope you plan to continue adding adventures and other neat stuff for Dark Streets. Do not let it fade away!

Your combat looks so deadly)

Why is Renaissance Deluxe PDF only $4.99? I am not complaing but is there a sale to help push Dark Streets?
