Call of Cthulhu 7th Ed - Looking for Players - Beginner Friendly
« on: June 04, 2018, 06:21:05 am »
Hiya chaps. I've been GM'ing CoC for around two years now and seeing as I have a significant amount of free time I've decided to potentially GM a Call of Cthulhu game. I'm thinking of using Skype or other voice-chat program to communicate. In order to have some semblance of cohesion I'd like no more than four players. Anyone interested?

I gaze into its milky depths, searching the wheat and sugar for the meanings I can never find.
It's like tea leaf divination, but with cartoon leprechauns.
There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

What's your time zone and preferred session time? Is this for beginners and neophytes, or are you looking for veterans familiar with the system? What kind of materials will be required/provided?

I operate in +1 GMT, but I am quite flexible. I don't mind new players, though vets are more than welcome. All you need to play is a microphone, a program to communicate (e.g. Skype most likely) and a character sheet (which are free, interactive and downloadable from chaosium).

will you have one-off stories or are you planning a campaign that is longer?

I played a CoC oneshot recently and had a lot of fun, so I'd be interested.

I wish there was a Robert E. Howard variant, where the last surviving party member always kills the creature, even if a draw.

Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

Color me interested as well actually. I've never played, but I've been listening to a Call of Cthulhu podcast and have kind of gotten the gist of it. I would just need a hand on how to create/stat out a character!
