Friday night's game

We had an excellent start for Call of Cthulhu on Friday night. At close to the last minute, I decided that my group would transition better with a shorter adventure that broke into action faster than Tatters of the King. Tatters looks like an AWESOME adventure, but the lack of action at the beginning would work better for a group that's more used to the feel of CoC as opposed to D&D.

So, I started them with the Haunting, the classic CoC adventure of all time. They wanted to play modern, and the Haunting is fairly non-specific timewise, so that worked. I won't include the spoilers in this post, but suffice to say that one of the characters left the house after ten game minutes and refused to go back in until it was daytime.

Gaming - CoC

It looks like our group is firmed up to play Call of Cthulhu, present-day, on the 29th. I'm going to take a look at Tatters of the King to see if it can be played in the present day. I've read excellent reviews of it at Yog-Sothoth.com, including "It's Cthulhu done right." And since I'm reading the source material from it, the King in Yellow, it seems like the perfect fit. Hopefully it will arrive from Amazon in time...
