The Book of Unremitting Horror

[Cavalorn]

If you dont like your copy lets talk trade or my buying it from you

I believe the poster was talking about the far less exciting 'Book of Remitting Horror'.

Got it today and have to say that it is a perfect companion to CoC d20. Has anyone worked out a convertion of the horror stat from OGL Horror to CoC sanity?

I don't have RPGObjects Blood and Blades: The Profiler's Guide to Slashers yet, but this review of the product at RPGNow says: "The book includes one of the best horror check rules that I’ve seen in d20. It appears to be a blend of OGL Horror and the Sanity Rules in Unearthed Arcana that were adapted from Call of Cthulhu d20. "

So Blood and Blades might be worth looking at.

Thank you.

A couple odd things I found in the book is the section 15 and the stat blocks. The adventure is the only open content (I thought that stat blocks had to be open since they are derived from the SRD) and there is no mention of the Modern SRD. As for the blocks themselves, it is obviously 3.5 with the term defence instead of armor class.

Isbn?

Could somebody who owns the book provide the ISBN for the book? I couldn't find it anywhere on any of the mentioned webpages, but it would help me buy it somewhere locally...

I don't have access to the book right now, but I'll check for you later today.

Hopefully it will come out in pdf at some point.

Hope. Hope.
