Van Helsings Cthulhu / Strange Aeons / DreamQuest Miniatures Thread

[FramFramson]

I've got the 7th Ed Miniatures now, I've taken pictures (after forgetting and starting to clean up/assemble one) - and my thoughts will be posted later.

In addition my print copy of Vlads Army (a 7ombieTV supplement by Crooked Dice) arrived - very nice it is too.

I just need to finish the rules for my beloved Mythos Creatures, and I can play "Achtung! Cthulhu" Games 7TV style!

"Who do you think you are Kidding Mr Hastur" . . . . . .

"You're nicked, chummy!" he replied, trying vainly to cuff the shoggoth.

A man after my own heart...

7TV Achtung Cthulhu. Bring it on!

7TV Achtung Cthulhu. Bring it on! 

I feel it would be rude not to . . . . .

7TV Achtung Cthulhu. Bring it on! 

It's something I've been meaning to look into since the A!C models started to appear too, so yeah. Bring it on

[Van-Helsing]

I wasn't in on the Kickstarter (I was unwell and couldn't afford it at the time) and jumped in after - I have only just gotten around to "playing" with the Miniatures (the Books are great) - BUT my Mi-Go don't have the full complement of Limbs!?!?!



All three of the "unaugmented" Mi-Go are missing their secondary fore-limbs! 

My Mrs (who "hooked me up" with Achtung! Cthulhu after the KS) has contacted Modiphius and we're waiting for a reply atm.

The only other thing that surprised me, is the fact they've based the Miniatures on 30mm Bases, and the squares on the Floorplans (which are GORGEOUS IMHO) are 25mm - it makes no never mind to me personally (as I don't "use" squares on floorplans for combat, and even if I did I base minis on 25mm round Renedra bases now anyways LoL) - but it did however strike me as odd.

BACK TO TOPIC - I will be doing a full "add on" PDF that looks/matches the Vlads Army Book - and the linky will be in my Cthulhu Gaming Facebook Group (The Dark Abyss) and on my Blog (The Illustrated London News) with a re-direct from here for people to find them.

[Van-Helsing]

Oh, I forgot - Achtung! Cthulhu stuff to look forward too!

Terrors of the Secret War - £15
Secrets of the DUST (Dust Tactics cross-over) - £20
Powers of the GODS (Godlike cross-over) - £15 (REALLY looking forward to this one - I'm a HUGE Godlike fan)
Interface 19.40 (interface 2.0 crossover) - £16

Assault on the Mountains of Madness (£30 full cover hardcover)
Shadows of Atlantis (£40 full colour hardcover)

Theres a Boardgame due out Next Year as well!

And (obviously) the skirmish game coming later this year!

[Mr. Peabody]

Will any of the A!C content be set on the Eastern Front, or feature Soviet protagonists or villains?

[Van-Helsing]

I don't know yet, I'm waiting on a multitude of answers atm LoL

[Van-Helsing]

OK - we have an answer - there is the eastern front guide coming (obvious they would really as one of the six heroes "Natalya" is a russian tank driver).

WOOT!

[Mr. Peabody]

Very cool... Will be looking forward to this immensely.

Thank you for that!

I was in on the Achtung Cthulhu campaign and feel they did a good job on the miniatures. The tiles are also very nice. I can't say much about the PDFs that I've bought and/or received from the campaign so far. I haven't really had a chance to read them... I knew it was unlikely I'd get to play the game even before I pledged, it's just so hard to get folks to commit to a regular RPG session nowadays.

VH, are you still doing anything with Empire of the Dead? Some of the stuff you had done a while back was really tops!

[Van-Helsing]

Kinda "burnt out" with Empire - very frustrated and irritated with it all - the lack of rules development. Rules being a mess (eg Rules for the WRONG Nemo to go with the Nautilus crew for a start) - Prof Jerusalem being left out of the Clickers Set that came with the Kickstarter, meaning you can't actually use your kickstarter Clickers without buying an additional model that didn't even appear till quite some time after the KS ended.

I'm not alone either, a couple of people are actually thinking of selling their EotD stuff - they feel West Wind moved too quickly onto another project leaving EotD "up in the air".

Don't worry though, my Victorian Gaming will return soon (ish) in a slightly different form . . . . . .

[Mr. Peabody]

Started running 'Three Kings' just last night. Posted a review here rather than ruining this fine thread.

While I'm really enjoying running some straight-up Call of Cthulhu, I think Three Kings would make a brilliant episodic campaign for 7TV. 

[Van-Helsing]

Excellent!

I've only read the scenarios so far, but they are very VERY good.

Started running 'Three Kings' just last night.

I'm very envious!
