When Nightmares come : Mississipi in the 30's
« on: August 17, 2024, 09:40:41 AM »
Hello all.
I would like to present a small project on When Nightmares come. I decided to adapt the rule to a context around New Orleans in the 30s by using this book (in french, sorry...) :


To start, here are six hunters (two wardens, two weavers and two wrights). The minis are prints of STL files from a KS, Moonlite Bayous.














You can see mores details and Characters sheets on my blog (all in french, sorry again !) : http://hastalafigurinasiempre.blogspot.com/

Great setting for your project. There's just something about New Orleans that makes it perfekt for pulpy mythos settings :)

The minis look great, too. Once again I wish I had room for a printer :D Very characterful bunch. I'll happily follow along for their adventures.

That’s a great premise and set of painted miniatures. Just curious, how many figures are recommended for a group of hunters when playing solo?

That's a wonderfully rich idea for a setting. New Orleans seems perfect for horror and supernatural!

Fantastic idea, I love the way When Nightmare Come fits easily into just about any 20th/21st century setting.

If anyone needs a native New Orleanian to vet plausibility or realism regarding setting, I’m happy to help.  Just try to get the accents right…

You New Orleanians probably have it as bad as us Bostonians...
