Medieval d20 Call of Cthulhu?

[Geoffrey]

Could a CoC game set in the Middle Ages be run using only the d20 Call of Cthulhu book? Does it have any info on medieval arms and armor?

I was thinking it would be cool to run a medieval fantasy game using only the monsters, spells, and magic items from CoC. It would have a dark and brooding feel.

1) YES and it would be most cool!

2) I dont know off hand.... but you could port the rules over if you needed them.

Realy good idea... < Limper kicks self for not thinking of it >

It would be very cool, but the CoC book does not really support such a thing. It does have info to run a game in any time period from 1890-present day though. So, it's not like they ignored time periods.

The d20 CoC book doesn't have medieval info, but you could probably use a bit from D&D and a little research. You might check this site out

It's BRP stuff, but there might be something you can use.

I'm thinking maybe I could use the Equipment I and Equipment II sections of the System Reference Document ( http://www.wizards.com/D20/article.asp?x=srd ) in conjunction with the d20 CoC book for a really good medieval Cthulhu game.

I've actually done some work on some material for using CoC in a medieval..actually more Dark Ages type setting....I'll try to find it and post it for you...I'll convert it to d20 CoC too...it was somewhat based off the settings of Ars Magica and Vampire: The Dark Ages....

 

[Geoffrey]

Cybernetic, that would be so cool and much appreciated!

I think you'll want to check out the Cthulhu Dark Age site: http://home.wanadoo.nl/s.gesbert/

Hey, twisted minds think alike, right?

There is a Dark Ages web supplement for Call of Cthulhu. It is very well done and has rules for that period of time.
