MOB Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 When the forces of the Cthulhu threaten France, who can the King call upon? There can be only one answer... ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL! The time has come for daring deeds against impossible foes. It is time for Musketeers vs. Cthulhu! From our friends Nightfall Games comes this licensed Call of Cthulhu Kickstarter, based on the writings of Claudia Christian (well-known from the science fiction TV series Babylon-5) and Chris McAuley in the fiction anthology The Musketeers vs. Cthulhu in the Court of King Louis. In this new setting for Call of Cthulhu, the Three Musketeers confront a mythical threat that threatens France. The book includes rules for creating an original musketeer and a four-part campaign! Claudia Christian’s Musketeers vs. Cthulhu fully-funded within the first few hours on Day One and is now into stretch goals. Join the ranks of the Musketeers as they face off against eldritch plots and courtly intrigues –and back this new setting for Call of Cthulhu here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nightfall/claudia-christensens-musketeers-vs-cthulhu-tabletop-rpg 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOB Posted November 2, 2023 Author Share Posted November 2, 2023 As one commenter has reminded us, Claudia Christian's Musketeers Vs Cthulhu is the second Call of Cthulhu project with a direct Babylon-5 connection. The first being Masks of Nyarlathotep. During a 1983 screenwriter strike, Larry DiTillio turned to TTRPG writing to make ends meet. And so wrote Masks of Nyarlathotep for us, still considered one of the greatest RPG adventures of all time. Then the strike ended and he resumed his illustrious career in Hollywood, going on to work as a writer and story editor for Babylon-5. Larry DiTillio passed in 2019, here is our obituary for this visionary game designer and writer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And every year, on Presidents' Day weekend (mid-February), the Larry DiTillio Memorial Games Library (his collection of games, donated) comes out to play at DunDraCon... www.dundracon.com You can check out a game from the library to play! I've checked out a game every year, I think, since it was opened (1st year I pointed out some likely-collectibles for them to double-check the value before generally-circulating them). We now return you to the (rather awesome-looking) Cthulhu&Musketeers thread... 😉 Edited November 12, 2023 by g33k Quote C'es ne pas un .sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
