tedopon Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Chaosium was advertising this product for Nov of last year, did it ever come out? That's hilarious. I haven't been here in a while, and logged in to see if there was any news as well. I think it's still "in editing". Quote 121/420 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaira Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Last I heard (early December) they were finishing off the artwork. I think it might be next on the list for dead-tree publication. Quote "The Worm Within" - the first novel for The Chronicles of Future Earth, coming 2013 from Chaosium, Inc.

Dredj Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Any new word on this product? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p_clapham Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 It would be nice if it were avalible in monograph or PDF format. Even a un-edited preview copy like the BRP zero edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Tar Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Just last week or so (i.e., early March 2009), there as a brief mention on the Chaosium site that Pulp Cthulhu was scheduled for, "later this year". I'm eagerly awaiting this as well, but it looks like it will get the typical Chaosium glacial production approach. Oh well, at least their design and proof-reading is better than the Speedy Gonzalez Mongoose approach. Quote 132/420 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumtara Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Chaosium was advertising this product for Nov of last year, did it ever come out? The R'lyeh Report February 25, 2009 "We have other titles in the works of course, including Interplanetary for BRP, Pulp Cthulhu, Voodoo Virus, R'lyeh Rising, and Blackmoore Global Laboratories. These titles will likely release late in 2009. Rudolph please send word! There are other manuscripts being worked upon as well. I'll be happy to mention them once they are being laid out for printing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simlasa Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) Originally I wasn't all that interested in Pulp Cthulhu... I mean, Cthulhu started out as pulp... so how much pulpier did he need to get... Oh, unless you mean 'Pulp' the way they use it over on RPG.net... meaning wacky cinematics with inviolate heroes... kind of Lumley's style of 'Guns Against Cthulhu'. Anyway, old prejudices aside, now I'm wondering if it might be a good resource for playing other sorts of pulps... ala The Spider, Doc Savage, The Avenger, The Shadow, The Phantom, and The Crimson Clown. I'll keep my COC horrific... but I'd certainly be up for some slap-happy gunplay with Justice Inc. Edited March 20, 2009 by Simlasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PK Games Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Originally I wasn't all that interested in Pulp Cthulhu...

I'll keep my COC horrific... but I'd certainly be up for some slap-happy gunplay with Justice Inc. I was hoping to use it for a Tales of the Gold Monkey style Cthulhu campaign. The PCs are all adventurers, spies, magistrates and merchants/fortune seekers living out in the French Mandate of Pacific Islands and instead of the "Gold Monkey metal" as the McGuffin it would be some sort of Cthulhu icon the Axis powers seek. With a few Cthulhu style monsters and encounters added in, the game would pretty much be a Bring 'em Back Alive, Tales of the Gold Money, Indiana Jones and the Call of Cthulhu esque campaign. Probably use some of Pulp Cthulhu's ideas (if it ever comes out), with a modified use of Step 6 from BRP (+10 instead of +20 most likely) and so forth. Should be fun.
