Title: Achtung! Cthulhu arrives
Post by: BlackSmoke on 27 December 2013, 12:30:21 AM: (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MGwbH_l9lCA/Ury5JjodZ_I/AAAAAAAAB_Q/kuDoim-BnZs/s320/IMG_1589.JPG)

Not really miniatures related, but I got my Kickstarter goodies from Modiphius just before xmas and I'm so smitten I felt compelled to take an, albeit swift, look at the books on my blog. They are genuinely lovely books and they'll be getting some good use in 2014!

Isn't that just the problem with KS, though? So many of them you can't go in for them all. But at least you'll be able to pick them up when they hit the shelves. Which you should! ;)

Well worth getting involved with and they did a great KS from start to finish

Post by: eastern barbarian on 07 January 2014, 02:25:06 AM: got mine, very impressed with the quality, graphic side of it... still no time to read propely (and even less to play!) but definitely great start for Modiphius!

Post by: diehard on 14 January 2014, 03:36:47 AM: While I didn't actually "miss" this I had pledged heavily into another campaign at the time although at the time I wasn't overly blown away by the few mini concepts they provided I'm very impressed by a lot of them now and will without a doubt adding the majority of the Mythos beings and the bad guys to my Strange Aeons collection. Especially liking the Hounds.

Post by: EndTransmission on 15 January 2014, 10:22:17 AM: The quality of the miniatures is amazing (some quick photos in my Strange Aeons thread), though some of the parts are ever so delicate. I'm really glad I backed this one and can't wait to see what else they make once the skirmish game comes out

Post by: BlackSmoke on 19 January 2014, 08:36:14 AM: The artwork throughout the books is stylish and atmospheric. Top quality stuff!

fwiw, DriveThruRPG is selling the PDF for $15, as well as earlier A!C releases. Since you've written the review, also post it on DriveThruRPG (and link it to your blogsite!).
