Mysterioso Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 This trailer really caught my attention and got me thinking about how it could make for a fun one-shot adventure: http://www.movieweb.com/news/NE2W4Q8WgCsu5a Everything for the one-shot I can pull from my various Call of Cthulhu books but the trolls. Would anyone care to share the stats for trolls? I would guess that Runequest or Stormbringer would have something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vile Traveller Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 (edited) I don't know that the stats for RuneQuest trolls would be enough - some of the trolls in that trailer look more like giants in size. Check out the Deluxe MRQ SRD in the downloads section for stats (both trolls and giants). Edited October 2, 2010 by Vile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickMiddleton Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Big Gold Book: Giants, pg 344; Trolls pg 347 BASIC Creatures monograph: Giants, pg 22; Trolls (Cave and non-Cave) pg 42 Malleus Monstrorum: Trolls, pg 99. From the trailer there are a number of different sizes of creature from somewhat larger than a man to absolutely bloody enormous...

KjetilKverndokken Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Jess Trolljegeren, One of the Trolls, the Jotne is about 100 meters tall, and the smallest, Dovre-Gubbene are at the bare minimum 5 meters tall.

Mysterioso Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 I have been watching to see if this will get released in theatres in the US. So far no luck. Nor have I seen any news about a DVD release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KjetilKverndokken Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Be patyiant, it is still going stron here in its origin country of Norway. nordic movies often get slower releases in foreign countires.... Quote Tea and Madness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Sandoval Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 That clip looks awesome. I am going to be on the look out on Netflix. Playing a one shot on this sounds just as good. Quote The gaming industry is trading quality for quantity. The popular systems focus on the latest books powers, miniture battles, or encouraging MMORPG play and your imagination is somewhere else. I weep for those who were born into roleplaying as a rehearsed tactical experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbcreighton Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Just saw this on MovieCentral here in Canada. Really enjoyed it. Had some good drama, a good character, some action and some humorous parts. Could definitely have some good roleplaying possibilities.

Evilschemer Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 It's also playing on Netflix streaming. It's a very enjoyable film. Quote __________________ Christian Conkle Blogs: Geek Rampage! - Swords of Cydoria - Exiled in Eris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simlasa Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 'Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale' is another, similar, approach to retelling of older tales (though I'm not really sure if the way it depicts old-school Santa has real roots in anything).
