    News: Dr. Jones Joins Chaosium
    Wednesday, May 07, 2008 @ 16:51:28 GMT by PoC (161 reads)
    ChaosiumPicked up by Bret (WinstonP) in the forums, Chaosium have announced that Dr. William Jones (William_J) has joined their staff.

    William will be no stranger to the people of olde Yoggie, he and his wife (Deborah) starting The Book of Dark Wisdom and both being 'Sons of Yog-Sothoth' (moderators to YSDC's eponymous literary forum); add to that William's writing credits with Secrets of New York, Mysteries of Morocco, Arkham Tales, The Strange Cases of Rudolph Pearson and the forthcoming Pulp Cthulhu to name a few, round off with the odd Professorship and you can see that this is very good news for Chaosium.

    With all the new developments for the game over the past few weeks, it looks like a great time ahead for Cthulhu fans!

    News: Delta Green: Targets of Opportunity - Fundable Fundraiser
    Tuesday, May 06, 2008 @ 17:20:00 GMT by PoC (175 reads)
    Delta GreenFollowing on from the very successful release of Delta Green: Eyes Only, Arc Dream and Pagan Publishing are collaborating to produce a new supplement for the Delta Green setting - Delta Green: Targets of Opportunity.

    The companies have decided to use Fundable as a means of releasing the book, saying:

    "We're going the Fundable route for 'Targets of Opportunity' because our two publishing companies have their meager (sic) capital tied up in many other product lines, and, frankly, producing a book like this costs an awful lot of money. If you help us raise the money for it, we'll produce the book."

    Arc Dream & Pagan are looking to raise $20,000 (US) by Wednesday, 28th May, 11:59 PM EST. As with all Fundable projects, if the pledge total is not met, no monies are taken. (All or nothing.)

    As of writing, the total stands at over $3,000 raised, with just over 22 days to go. Join the discussion about this new project in the YSDC forums: Delta Green: Targets of Opportunity
    Note: Now over $8,000 pledged.

    News: Keith Herber: Back in the Game with Miskatonic River Press
    Thursday, May 01, 2008 @ 17:30:25 GMT by PoC (373 reads)
    PublishersLike British buses, nothing for ages and then three come along at once!

    There have been rumblings in the forums, but it's now official, Keith Herber whose name graces the cover of many widely loved Call of Cthulhu supplements such as Fungi from Yuggoth (Day of the Beast), Arkham Unveiled and the rest of the 'Lovecraft Country' series (to name a few) is returning to Call of Cthulhu with his own Chaosium-licenced imprint: 'Miskatonic River Press'.

    Read on if you want to see what 'Doc Cthulhu' is up to, and check out the current forum threads: Putting Out a Feeler and Miskatonic River Press Open for Submissions.

    News: Chaosium Licensing Madness!
    Wednesday, April 30, 2008 @ 18:00:00 GMT by PoC (313 reads)
    PublishersI couldn't resist the news title, so I didn't. (Oscar Wilde wouldn't mind.)

    Reality Deviant Publications are the latest in a new line of Chaosium Call of Cthulhu licensees.

    The following borrowed liberally from the pages of GamingReport.com:

    "The contracts are signed in blood, the sacrifices have been made, and mighty Cthulhu has bestowed his blessings. Reality Deviant Publications is happy to announce we are the newest Chaosium licensee! RDP will focus on support of the True20 game system by bringing fans of all things Cthulhu outstanding game supplements which bring H.P. Lovecraft's deliciously maddening Mythos to life!"

    So it's not only more BRP-based Call of Cthulhu supplements we can look forward to.

In this exclusive interview Campbell speaks about his childhood, his work and the influence of H.P. Lovecraft on his life, plus much more.

    The full interview, running the best part of an hour is now available as a video download (480x360p) from Lovecraftiana.
