Playtested with nearly complete terrain projects for both nuked NYC encounter and the Ice Station encounter. I think I hyped up the fear factor too early so by the time they got to the final battle, they were already done and ready to GFTO!

Necropolis (ConCarolinas 2017)
SYSTEM: Call of Cthulhu 7e Another one of the canned adventures by Chaosium for the summer convention season, Necropolis is a short introductions adventure with a simple premise and straightforward purpose. It is meant to help the players get used to the new aspect of 7th edition Call of Cthulhu. Again, it is nice to have…
The Dreaming Ward (ConCarolinas 2017)
SYSTEM: Call of Cthulhu 7e Chaosium released a few free adventures for the summer con season and I decided to run some of those. Key word is that these are free. You get what you pay for. Although they are complete adventures thankfully all with pregenerated characters, they are … let’s just say… a little…
Man in the Moon 2: Ice Station Schatzgräber (MACE West 2017)
I was very nervous going into this session because I made the mistake of talking it up. I was really excited about it because it combined so many elements that I enjoy. I was lucky to get a great group of players and they really dove into the setting. I paced it rather well and…
Genius Loci (RonCon Spring 2017)
Danvers State Hospital has been a passing obsession since I saw the movie Session 9. When Chaosium published an adventure about it (I had some ideas myself) I wanted to run it so badly. I decided to add a little more horror to the story. I was disappointed on our the story developed in the adventure…
The Derelict (mini-mace 2017)
SYSTEM: Call of Cthulhu 7e DATE: 2017-01-28 I was not entirely satisfied with the way this one went. Maybe I needed more prep time but the group never got to a point that made them want to stay on board and investigate everything. Or perhaps I gave out too much up front, but by the time…
Cults of Chaos: A Time of Harvest Episode 2
WHERE: MACE 2016 (Charlotte, NC) WHEN: November 12, 2016 SYSTEM/SETTING: Call of Cthulhu 7e/ 1930 America, Arkham This adventure was completely different from Episode 1. It was far less railroading and more free formatted. I had to egg the characters on to get it going, though. I had 3 players from the previous session return plus…
Cults of Chaos: A Time of Harvest Episode 1
WHERE: MACE 2016 (Charlotte, NC) WHEN: November 11, 2016 SYSTEM/SETTING: Call of Cthulhu 7e/ 1930 America, Vermont Never thought I would get involved in with anything Organized Play but when Call of Cthulhu did it, I was all in. They approach it differently from other OP (at least the way I understand it). They simply…
Man in the Moon 1: Secrets of the Moon (MACE 2016)
Finally got to run my Savage (Blood & Suns) at MACE 2016. All that preparation and terrain building paid off, mostly. This adventure has a cerebral element to it so running it after players have already played 8 hours worth of gaming was probably not a good idea. People were pretty warn out. I realized…
The Hermit’s Road (MACE 2016)
SYSTEM/SETTING: Fantasy Age/Titansgrave Ran it again at MACE 2016. Despite a few delays (reprint of one character), they all had fun. I have to say that I had the most amazing group for this one. They were people from all aspects of my life – Nick P and Steve C from new gaming friends, Chris…
