By gaslight or camplight, the Mythos is waiting… and Chaosium is happy to oblige with a couple of new books for the Call of Cthulhu Roleplaying Game hitting shelves over the next few weeks.

First up will be Dust & Blood for Cthulhu By Gaslight. Dust & Blood includes two adventures which highlight the grimy underbelly of Victorian London society. Ashes to Ashes is a one-shot scenario for 3-6 players whilst Signs Writ in Scarlet is a sandbox-style scenario, for 4-6 players. The book also includes ten pre-generated investigators designed for use in the scenarios.
A few weeks later Chaosium is taking us camping, with Campfire Tales : Scouts Against Cthulhu. This one really intrigues me as players take on roles of younger investigators coming face-to-face with the dangers of the Mythos. The book gives you rules for creating younger investigators, including new skills and rules, scout ability badges and an adversity mechanic. Westhaven, a town close to Arkham, is presented as a new setting and the book has four scenarios - which can be played as one offs or together as a full campaign - rounding things off. The book is a great way to introduce your characters at a younger age and prepare them to become fully fledged investigators and all the insanity that comes with that.

Actual play shows, such as Critical Role and Dimension 20 have been massively popular over the last ten years. Episodes can attract millions of viewers and Critical Role have sold out arenas across the globe, including Wembley Arena shows that sold out in under an hour. Dungeons & Dragons has often been the game of choice for shows and now D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast is getting in to the act with a new actual play series called ‘Dungeon Masters’ launching on YouTube on 22nd April.
