Call of Cthulhu/Eclipse Phase Interest thread

[Agent Sinistra]

I'm currently considering running either a Call of Cthulhu or Eclipse Phase game. Anyone interested?

For the time being, this is probably going to be a one scenario deal, although if things go well, there's certainly the possibility of expanding it into a campaign.

If you aren't familiar with one or either systems, you can find the Call of Cthulhu Quick-Start Rules here and the Eclipse Phase Quick-Start Rules here.

Ideally, I'd like to have between three to six people involved, although six may be pushing it somewhat. As far as character sheet hosting goes, I'll likely be writing up the code for one.

EDIT: And since it looks like there's a possibility of running CthulhuTech, here's a link to the Quick-Start rules for that.

I'd be interested in a CoC game but last time one of those happened it went down hill because rapid loss of interest.

Hrrm... any chance of a Cthulhutech one? I'm more interested in Eclipse phase than CoC. (Although I did play in a fun Delta Green campaign where my character was an agent of the Bureau of Foreign Research)

Cthulhutech? Please no mech combat that stuff is horrendous I didn't mind the normal combat and the poker style rolling but it took my online group 3 hours to do 1 round of combat.

....isn't it more or less the same system as the personal combat? *shrugs* I'm good with whatever in cthulutech.

I would not know I was a footslogger who focused in melee just for the giggles. Though looking back on it I'd probably play a power armour person if allowed.

I COULD try a game of Cthulhutech, it seems fun. Not sure though...  

[Agent Sinistra]

I'd be willing to run CthulhuTech; just know that I'm not entirely familiar with it.

No worries. You'll just have to kill us the first time anyone mentions Gendo Ikari, plays any theme from Robotech or Neon Genesis Evangelion or.....*gets out the list*

It only turns into evangelion if you use the engels. Otherwise the most vital decision now is. Mech focused game or footslogger focused.  

[Plainsfox]

Ahhh! But it's in the background. CT is very varied. You can run almost any campaign type with it, from Paranormal investigators to Mecha Mayhem.

I vote for something on the Power Armor scale.

I forgot to give you something to blow that earworm out of your head.

Something from FLCL, which was done to keep the VAs working on NGE movie sane.

Eclipse Phase was a game I purchased recently, but have not had the opportunity to play. This might be my opportunity to do so.

I'd be willing to give it a shot if it's what you decided to run 3nodding

It's very interesting to say the least. *makes forks so he can have his own DND campaign*
