Latest Updates from Our Project:

Outside Entities, and Episode 2 of A Ravenous Hunger
over 1 year ago – Wed, Oct 30, 2024 at 04:17:34 PM

Another stretch goal unlocked! Ken is thrilled to be busily writing up the 2e versions of gods and titans Daoloth, Iod, Mordiggian, Quachil Uttaus, and Y'golonac; plus creatures Avatar of Y'golonac, Lloigor, Nioth-Korgai, Sand-Dwellers, Shan, and the Very Old Folk. All backers at the Nightgaunt level and higher will get this wax museum of horrors as a free PDF after the campaign.
 
We've just added a new new £160,000 stretch goal - Singular Thirsts, a new scenario for the Shadows Under Chicago campaign frame, in which a crew of Windy City investigators discovers something more than usually wrong with the bootleg brew in the Bucktown neighborhood.

For those of you new to Trail of Cthulhu, we've also added three new digital add-ons:
 
  • Trail 1e - All Campaign Frames in PDF
  • Trail 1e - All Adventure PDFs
  • Trail 1e - Complete Digital Collection

If you enjoyed episode 1 of "A Ravenous Hunger", Twelve-Sided Stories' Trail of Cthulhu 2e Actual Play, you can now watch episode 2 on our YouTube channel here.

And do you want to investigate the creepy church, or get the heck out of there back to safety with Rose? Vote in Gareth's latest poll below.

Play by poll #2, and more Cthulhu levels added
over 1 year ago – Mon, Oct 28, 2024 at 02:39:58 PM

A quick update to let you know firstly, we've posted the next installment of Gareth's Trail play by poll game - you can see it at the bottom of this message, and if you're a backer, you can vote on it now. We'll be posting the next installment in 24 hours, and each new installment 24 hours after that.

Secondly, if you missed out on the Cthulhu pledge level and the chance to have Gareth write you a custom Trail of Cthulhu adventure, good news - we've added another two opportunities to grab this, so it's now limited to five backers instead of the original three.

Morning all,

Excited to wake up this morning and see us SO VERY CLOSE to £100,000! That means that we've sped through two stretch goals overnight; form-fillable character sheets (attached for logged-in backers only), and ribbon bookmarks. (I was thinking green; what colours would you choose?)

Looking forward to seeing where we get to today!
