Wow, inspirational, a great tribute to one of my favorite movies! I can't wait to see more, or what your next project will be.

I read the rules : excellent job and I now have to test them.

Will you post a pdf of the rules and the tokens ?

Did you write some scenarios ?

Do you think we could create a cooperative-multiplayer game with all players acting as humans and The Thing being auto-controlled (that's what I did in Dead Walk Again), may be by using a card system+token system ?

I like the token idea and the fear system.


I wish I were an octopus to paint more miniatures...Cthulhu must be a great painter

My wife's working on it. First introductory scenario will be posted soon in pdf format.

Imo, one of the players must play the Thing with this rules. It's so much fun to try to infiltrate the humans by observing, infecting and imitating them.

How did you make the snow on the board ?

Use white latex paint and mix this with filling plaster. The trick is to stamp delicately on the board with a big round brush to keep that "powder" effect.

Que des bonnes nouvelles  ;)

Many thanks for the answers.

Any brand for the latex paint ??? I guess we find the same in Belgium and in France.

Did this Overspawn as a commission for a friend.

All bits and pieces are from the plastic chaos spawns (GW), should you like convert one of these for yourself.

Enjoy the gore !

This gives awesome a face!  :o
Rules looks intriguing too.

I'd buy this before Sedition Wars on Kickstarter. Oh wait, I've already pledged...

Edit:
I just upped my pledge for Sedition Wars, because the miniatures for SW looks suitable for your rule set.  8)
