The tactical combat, however, was kinda not really what I was looking for in a CoC game...) less so than that I've been so incredibly over d20 and the rulesy fiddlesomeness of that system that I can't imagine ever using it again for anything. That said, the appendix about porting the Cthulhu stuff into your 3e D&D game was, as you say, the inverse of the rest of the book and more like what this looks like. That's something that I think is pretty interesting. I wonder if this is complementary or competing with the Sandy Petersen Cthulhu Mythos stuff for 5e?</blockquote>
