Mike M Posted Tuesday at 11:40 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 11:40 AM The Gaslight books can be used to play Cthulhu by Gaslight, they use the 'core' CoC rules (per the Starter Set) along with Gaslight specific ones. The full CoC Rulebook may be used, if desired, with its range of expanded and optional rules. Thus, Gaslight can be used standalone or, likely for many, alongside the CoC Rulebook. As someone mentioned above, Gaslight provides a third way into the game, alongside the Starter Set and CoC Rulebook. And like the Starter Set, recommends getting (in time, when you feel you might to delve deeper in the wider game) the CoC Rulebook. Although, there's no reason why you can't enjoy playing Gaslight games with just the Gaslight books for as long as you desire. The aim is to continue to make the game accessible - thus, not needing to immediately purchase the CoC Rulebook to start playing. 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stadi Posted Tuesday at 12:03 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:03 PM I was hoping that it will include the full rules and because of that we would get the new-layout version of the full rules in the form of the Gaslight book 🙂 But anyway, it absolutely makes sense this way. I still hope the Core books will get a makeover soon 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrippyHippy Posted Tuesday at 10:50 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:50 PM Also, will the Gaslight books be produced in some sort of enhanced format - leatherette covers, slipcases, etc? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that CERTAINLY calls for hardcovers and a slipcase, I am thinking. It's only proper. - Bill 2 Quote http://billplayscthulhu.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest slipcase for all three books - Keeper, Player, Scenario 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmshade Posted Thursday at 06:54 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:54 PM Will there be a Gaslight Keeper's Screen? I'm addicted to GM screens. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
