The Beast in the Woods: Fistful of Lead Tales of Horror
« on: January 18, 2019, 02:45:40 PM »
Thanks to the diligence of ace reporter Buzz Brewster of the Daily World News, we able to report on the strange goings on outside the mansion of Billionaire Karl Kensington.
Late on the night of January 17th strange lights were seen in the woods of Kensington Manor. The same mansion where only weeks ago the three heiresses to the Kensington Kandy fortune died in a mysterious fire that all but destroyed the mansion, and devastated the Mr Kensington himself.

Nice writeup on the blog. I do like that cover for the Tales of Horror supplement, it's a corker.

I am looking forward to this.
I have seen bits, the game set in medieval times & this one, that interest me.
I hope it can be used for Victorians as well, as I took advantage of
Westwind's recent sale to purchase several packets.

Shooting to have ready at Salute. And yes, you can use for Victorian. Much like other Fistful of Lead titles, its s toolbox for what period you want.

You won't be disappointed. ;)

These Victorian AARs were a play tests of the rules:

And this one shows how versatile they are with a completely different period setting:

There also maybe some new figures coming along shortly that you will be interested in that are very compatible with the above. :D

Nice, sign me up for a copy for pick up at Salute.  Are the rules an all-in-one package or is a copy of fistful of Lead required too?
