Well hey all ... it finally happened...
11 years since I joined this forum (as Aycorn) ... I finally ran a game last night.
The last time I played in, or ran, an RPG - Bush was president. And I don't mean George W.
Call of Cthulhu, using BGB rules (with a few house tweaks) (yep, you heard me, not 7th ed) Scenario: "The Haunting" aka "The Corbitt House", which I ran pretty much in its original form, with a few additions from later editions and personal touches here and there.
Two very good, old friends who have are both avid gamers, and a friend they brought along - a very nice guy who I liked very much.
And the game? A complete success. The hoary old CoC scenario still packs a punch, no problems with rules, everything went smoothly.
A good game, some good food, a little good booze, a good time had by all.
And yep - we meet again next month!
