Outstanding!!!!   

Love the glowing eye effect on the Daemonic Hound.  I'll have to track down some of the Fantasy Flight minis.

Nice work! Is your formless thing proxy something from FF's Descent (I dont recognise it from their CoC ranges)?

Well, fortunately both sessions of the game went off without a hitch and apparently my write up sparked enough interest. I had slotted for four players both sessions and Friday I ran it with eight and Saturday with seven. There was a lot of positive feedback so unless they were being overly polite I think everyone had a genuinely good time. The protagonists won both games and saved the world.

It was also a very satisfying and fun experience for me being a first time GM at a convention. So much so that I'll be running two more sessions at Historicon and I've already started to work on Chapter II of a now planned tribology. The next installment will be titled "Run Silent, Run Deep Ones" and will feature some sort of raid on a docked U-boat (German Deep One Hybrids anyone?).

I was so busy running the game that I didn't have time to take notes for an AAR. I did grab a few pics though.



A sampling of the Elder Sign cookies my wife made for the players.

That table looks great!

What splendid biscuits. Your game was clearly an irresistible tour de force.

Also, biscuits. Just sayin'. .

 

[Uncle Mike]

This looks great! Hope to find out more...also, another vote for biscuits.

[Big Frank]

Great looking board.

Your thread is always inspirational, great stuff. Any chance of marketing the cookies?

Thanks so much.

I've told my wife many times she should have a side business baking. If you're in the states we'll send you a batch.

The cutter came from Etsy, BTW.
