Message: <blockquote data-quote="Michael O'Brien" data-source="post: 8413225" data-attributes="member: 6807727"><img src="https://www.chaosium.com/product_images/uploaded_images/call-of-cthulhu-game-organization-guide-header.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="width: 830px" /> Way back in 1981 Chaosium had a wild idea. Using the skill system first seen in RuneQuest, it could be possible to run a horror story in which investigators fought against the uncaring cosmic horror of the H.P. Lovecraft's fevered imagination, just like the story The Dunwich Horror. And so the game <a href="https://www.chaosium.com/call-of-cthulhu-rpg" target="_blank">Call of Cthulhu</a> was released upon the world! <img src="https://www.chaosium.com/product_images/uploaded_images/coc-1st-and-7th-smaller.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />This month, October 2021, we invite you to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Call of Cthulhu. Run a game in a game store, online, or even a night of changing it up with your home group. Maybe take a few hours to show players who haven't tried it yet, the fun (and insanity loss!) of a horror-based roleplaying game.We have created a helpful free guide to running such a game in PDF form! Which you can download from here:<a href="https://chaosium.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c3792dc30db9982558880998c&id=663fbf7719&e=a927dbbed4" target="_blank">Call of Cthulhu 40th Anniversary event</a>Also available at <a href="https://chaosium.itch.io/call-of-cthulhu-40th-anniversary-game-organization-guide" target="_blank">Itch.io</a>.Here you can find our 40th Anniversary Game Organization Guide with tips on:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Getting a game together</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Running an online game</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Running a game at a store or public venue</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Convincing your home game to try something new</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Resources for running a game for new players</li> </ul> At the link, we also have a handy sign up sheet that you can post online or stick on a game store's cork board to recruit players: <a href="https://chaosium.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c3792dc30db9982558880998c&id=663fbf7719&e=a927dbbed4" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.chaosium.com/product_images/uploaded_images/screen-shot-2021-09-30-at-11.34.22-pm.png" alt="40th Anniversary Game Sign Up Sheet" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></a></blockquote>
