Yamahasi Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Hi Possibly a bit of a long shot for a first forum post, but does anyone remember a CoC scenario published in the mid to late 1980s based on the Dr Who storyline "Pyramid of Mars". It was a British publication - I think in a fanzine, but I might be wrong there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greger Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) Maybe you are able to find it in the list here: http://yog-sothoth.com/wiki/index.php/CoC:Scenarios edit: Sorry, saw now that that list was only for non-magazine scenarios edit2: There are magazine scenarios further down the page.

Yamahasi Posted July 26, 2022 Author Share Posted July 26, 2022 Thanks for this - I spent of fair bit of time going through it but no luck. Not time wasted though, I so thoroughly enjoyed the trip down memory lane and reflecting on how many of these I had back in the day that as I've got a day off tomorrow, I have decided to spend it unearthing my 80s RPG material - not sure my wife will be as enthusiastic about my plans though - from the boxes in the loft where it has been stored (I hope) for the last 20 or so years.

Yamahasi Posted August 4, 2022 Author Share Posted August 4, 2022 Just for the record (in case anyone is interested) I found it. It was in a fanzine called Manic Depressive Issue 1. A fairly straight rehash of the Pyramids of Mars story line but the setting could make for a really good brief interlude for investigators. Having found the fanzine I also found a couple of interesting pieces about the fanzine editor (Nick Edwards) and his rpg history - https://thegrognardfiles.com/2018/03/05/fanzine-scrap-book-nick-edwards-part-one/ and https://thegrognardfiles.com/2018/03/06/fanzine-scrap-book-nick-edwards-part-two/. My original interest was triggered about a year or so ago when ordering some Blacktree Design orcs, I spotted their Dr Who figures and all the supporting cast for this episode. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is it available? I'm a big fan of old fanzines!
