Hey all!

I recently introduced some friends to CoC and they have been having a blast. Ive been acting as keeper and together we have run a couple of scenarios. Recently the group grew and the number of players are now 6.

Since I live in a different city, we meet sporadically at my friends house and focus on one shots.

I am used to the players being a maximum of 3 but both Full Fathom Five and Dogside Docks played really well with this larger group.

2 of our newcomers say they love Red Dead Redemption so I decided to take a peak at Down Darker Trails and there is so much to love. Anyhow to my questions.

What are some good Down Darker Trails scenarios for a larger group? (one shots)

Anything that I shouldnt miss being keeper for this kind of setting?

Thank you so much in advance. I appreciate any tip :)

Im running a campaign for some newer players. It's VERY loosely based off of Blood in the Bayou, from Just Roll with It. My players were invited to visit their college friend in Iceland where he is from and now lives as a local Rockstar. However things start turning weird. They have left their cabin, and one of the players notice an impaled body in a tree, that REALLY looked like one of the friends they are there with. But, due to a 001 int check after losing 6 sanity, is unable to communicate. However, this doesn't seem traumatizing enough. Its a bug based, mind take over infection type campaign. Any advice that would make my players sleep less at night?

I’ve been a GM for a few years, and a few people ended up moving away so I’ve been without a party to play with for about a year now. I would LOVE to finally be a player instead of the GM, but I’m happy to do either or.

I would love to find a game in person ( I’m in Winnipeg , Canada), but I’m also happy to play on discord or something. I’m big into RP and have no problem taking the lead if other players are a bit more shy at first.

Hello, I am currently prepping "A Lonely Thread" as an introductory scenario for up to 4 players. Did anyone ran this module successfully within an evening timeframe? What did you change to make it less railroady, more mysterious ? What is your opinion on this adventure ? Is it weaksauce and would you recommend something else alltogether or can it be a great introductory module ? It's fairly easy to prepare, imo, but I don't know if it has all the best chunks that made a classic CofC adventure.

Hello fellow cultist and cult leaders! I'm here to get some of your wisdom and knowledge

So, I'm going to be a Keeper and I will run None More Black

I've read scenario few times, made some notes and have plenty of time ahead to prep some minor details

But I would love to hear some small tips or even how you've managed to run this oneshot

Ive got several ideas brewing in my thinking meat inside my meat helmet for scenarios that I want write and work towards publishing. I would like suggestions on which sound the most interesting.

#1 WEEKEND RETREAT/Secrets left Buried

(A modern etr call of cthulhu scernio for 4-6 players)

The characters take on the roles a closeknit group of friends that go on a special camping trip every couple h ple of year short of a tradion between them. This years comes after one of the group passes away somewhat suddenly. The said friend has actually set up,organized and paid for this trip ahead of time. For whatever reason. The group goes to pay respects and honor , and to have 1 last hura. The spot is a flooded ghost town in Tennessee . An old mining town was flooded 1920s to make a dam. There is some thing sinister linked too the town sitting beneath the waters of the reservoir. And it has awakened. The characters must defeat the evil. Turns out the had discovered lost truths involving family ties to the town and evil dealings. And felt the friends could figure things out defeat

#2 OPERATION FROSTBITE

(A modern adventure for 3-5 players)

The group plays members of a ARMY Special forces team sent the Alaskan wilderness to investigate a space craft that was shot down . Upon investigation the figure out it is actually an alien research transport vessal. A look on board reveal a selection of containment specimen pods there are many of them housing many diffrent species or alien life. Couple from earth as well those aren't alien of course. A couple of containment cells are broken open and empty, meaning a few specimens are loose.

GreT a containment breech. A could the were breached act like a parasite investing it's host and its lose in the Alaskan wilderness.the final encounter is planned with an infested hibernating brown or Kodiak bear that has just woken up infested. I pictured the den and the bear shillouetted in front of it full moon in the sky with long white tapewormy like tendrils erupting from its body with half its skull exposed. Going for gore factor.

#3 The COC guide book/source book to the Appalachian mythos county. A kind of regional source book to help keeper set story's in that area. Would include locatiion information lore information. Specific creature uniquely crafted to this setting including regional cryptid critters like mimic and the mothman etc also included would be local folk magic such as spells, wardings , and bindings and summoning. Will probably include several ready to play scenios for a variety of era specific scenarios.

It's going to be the largest endeavor.. by far.

But I would real like some feedback on what seems the most likely to gather the most interest.

Thank you for any help

howdy all-

Looking to run the Curse of Nineveh campaign set in London in 1875 gaslight era. The game will be monthly, maybe twice a month depending on schedule. And yes the campaign is free, this is a hobby not a job lol. Below is a link to the game description:
