I was watching the Mummy Returns and I am trying sell a group on Monster of the Week. I think I could tweak it to fit the setting. Has anyone else tried to do this?

I heard a rumour that there is an English Civil War hack for Monster of the Week (“Witch Finder General”?), but can’t find anything about it. Is there a link somewhere that someone could share?

I’m at the starting stages of planning an ECW campaign and am looking for inspiration / systems.

I will be starting a Monster of the Week game run via Roll20.

I will be starting a Monster of the Week game run via Roll20. Once a week, Thursdays at 9:00 PM EST until 11:30 PM EST (or thereabouts). I hope to start tomorrow evening but next week may be more realistic. I need at least one more player for adequate quorum. All are welcome.

Question for you all: can any class use magic or just certain classes, (i.e. Spell-Slingers, Spookies, Mad Scientists, etc.)? Or someone with a certain amount of Weird?

Is there any possibility of writing saleable material for MOTW? Is there a licensing program? Anyone got any links?

Hey so one of my players (a chosen) has just taken the skill from the professional that gives him a car.

Hey so one of my players (a chosen) has just taken the skill from the professional that gives him a car. I’m thinking about having him be contacted by a company that will give him the car in exchange for something (plot hook for a multi session road trip perhaps?) and I’m just wondering how much should I connect him with the company? I’m thinking that giving him the deal with the agency skill would be to much but should I still make him pick the resources and red tape the company has? Should I even give him any help beyond the car and just use those company descriptors for world building and perhaps future PC’s? I’m just hoping to get some of your thoughts because you all clearly know your rpg’s way better than me (the two time keeper and that’s it)

Anyone got any MotW games going on at GenCon this year?

Some mesoamerican nightmares await your hunters south of the border.

“Cast a Deadly Spell” a great geek cult film made by HBO is now up at Amazon free for subscribers and for digital sale. It may be on other locations such as Netfllix as well. I know it is up on HBO GO.

While it bewildered many HBO members at the time; this film noir set in a world where magic is real delighted many genre fans and is certainly a nice bit of inspiration for Keepers seeking to use Lovecraft, classic film noir or both. Magic is a metaphor for corruption or sin in this world. Can Phil Lovecraft survive without it?

Reviews? Ideas?

Let hope the sequel “Witch Hunt” which sadly replaced a perfectly cast Fred Ward as gumshoe “Phil Lovecraft” with Dennis Hopper is coming soon. To quote the “Easy Rider” star it was “the weirdest role I’ve ever done.”

One word of warning this is HBO film not meant for the young kiddies; the central twist is almost an old vaudeville sex joke.
