Call of Cthulhu Dark Streets...have anyone run/played it?

[MrHemlocks]

I am waiting till the print version is released later this March before ordering this item. For those that have run or played Dark Streets and using the the Renaissance Deluxe RPG core rulebook how do you or your players like it?

It uses a totally new rule system and 1743 campaign setting that looks really neat! I, and my group, need a change. after six years, from Chaosium's CoC 1920s and this might do the trick.

I bought the Renaissance Deluxe RPG core rulebook for the game and love the combat system

Just looking for some input...)



Sorry but not allowed to post links yet((((((((((

I've not hear of this or the Renaissance Deluxe RPG. Can you tell me more about both?

Since I am not yet allowed to post a link or picture yet go to the website and look around. Renaissance Deluxe RPG with Call of Cthulhu Dark Streets takes place in London 1743? and the combat is FAR more dangerous than Chaosium's CoC rpg. I have been running Call of Cthulhu 1920s adventures in and around Arkham for the last seven years. I and my group need a change and feel this new CoC system might do the trick)

How about some basic information like who publishes it, how are the rules different, or you know anything about it?

This video might expain the core rules far better than I can write... http://video.search.yahoo.com/video/play;_ylt=A2KLqIJvRT9RdkoA0nD7w8QF;_ylu=X3oDMTBvbWhyamduBHNlYwNzcgRzbGsDdmlkBHZ0aWQDVjEzNA--?p=Renaissance+Deluxe+RPG&vid=8e3831efd8c0757473095d4abed2bec0&l=4%3A23&turl=http%3A%2F%2Fts2.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DV.4680518857589057%26pid%3D15.1&rurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DxQj8KHPJFMA&=Renaissance+Deluxe&c=0&sigr=11a6mqd5n&age=0&fr=att-portal&hsimp=yhs-att_001&hspart=att&tt=b

Info on Dark Streets, that uses the Renaissance Deluxe core rules (see above)... Available for preorder now: Dark Streets from Cakebread and Walton.


Join the Adventures of the Bow Street Runners in their Struggle Against the Minions of the Cthulhu Mythos London, 1749: A city of vice, crime and misery. Gangs of ruffians rule the streets, unopposed. Brothels proliferate. Child-beggars starve in filthy gutters. Corrupt night-watchmen and thief-takers turn a blind eye to wrong-doing. And dark creatures lurk in back alleys, called from beyond by the desperate with nothing left to lose. But there is a new force on the streets of London; for the author and magistrate Henry Fielding has teamed up with his brother John to form the city’s first police force – the Bow Street Runners. The Fieldings have persuaded parliament to fund their crime-fighting endeavour, but they know that there is something behind the vice – for John Fielding’s blind eyes can see things that others cannot – things that man was not meant to know.
Dark Streets is a worldbook for the Renaissance Deluxe RPG, in which players take on the roles of officers in London’s first, desperately small, police force, investigating the dark secrets behind the sordid crimes of eighteenth century London.
This mixture of authentic history and the cosmic horror of H.P. Lovecraft, Dark Steets comes to you from the designers of Clockwork & Cthulhu, Clockwork & Chivalry and the Origins Award Nominated Abney Park’s Airship Pirates RPG
Dark Streets is a 156 page softcover with black and white interior. Requires the Renaissance Deluxe RPG core rulebook.
Available for preorder now at the C7 store. PDF available now, hardcopy due March 2013
