Heroes of Rura-Tonga (1)



I will not do the "What's in the box?" joke. So let me explain. After buying three scenarios from Drive Thru, as I already write in the last post, I decided to buy the main book - Heroes of Rura-Tonga Pulp Adventures in the South Pacific. As soon I've downloaded it I printed it and start to devour its intestines like hungry zombie shark (for those who know - wink). I've implemented those three scenarios into this book, so now I've got eight adventures in and around this Pacific island with a good background for making it into a campaign. I do not know when I will run this campaign, but if all goes well maybe this fall. So. I've got time to prepare myself for it. In the next couple of months, I will show You what I put in that box before we start playing it. I hope it will be fun prepping for me and something interesting for You.

So... What's in the box? Book and nothing more. For now... Stay tuned!

Preppin...

Last year I've run a string of adventures with created a campaign, using adventures for Pulp Egypt. It was fun for me and my sole player - my wife. I know that Griffon Publishing Studio got another pulp setting, this time on the Pacific Ocean - Heroes of Rura-Tonga. So maybe in the second half of this year, I've run this for my wife (or even a bigger group!). But there is nothing stopping me to look at these three adventures now. Especially that they PWYW on DriveThruRPG. So here they are in all of their Pulpiness!


One of them is even on Youtube, as Actual Play! This will be fun to watch! I think this is the start of a great adventure!

Second DG scenario

Almost two weeks later I and my one player meet up in a network environment to play another game of conspiracy and horror. The first adventure that come to my mind was, of course, Last Things Last from Need To Know book.



So with little preparation (I've run this scenario before...), we dive into things Clyde Baughman left behind...



This was a fun, quick game that we much enjoy. Not giving any spoilers but it was so close to loose PC this time, that next time I need to decrease the level of danger next time I'm going to run this game for another player. Those who played this scenario know what I'm talking about...


 My player is waiting for another adventure. Maybe something from Ross Payton's imagination this time?

If someone wants to know about that scenario here You got some resources (there might be spoilers!):

Library update (4)

I've decided to wait with this blog post until today, because of one letter from my dear Friend. I've received it today, so now I can show You my latest library update (it is a shame, that I discontinued this since March 2018!).
This is a compilation of my latest books, that I've received thanks to the generosity of my fellow Cthulhu Mythos Scholar and my own purchases.
The first two can be a little bit deceiving for somebody who do not speak Polish. The first book is Frozen Hell, by John W. Cambell and the second is THe Mind Parasites, by Colin Wilson and with no further ado and with no particular order...

DG One-Shot

Last week I've show You an idea about little adventure for maybe one player, which I take from the Reanimatrix book by Peter Rawlik. Also last week I've run this little adventure for one player. First of all, it was a nice hour of play, second of it was a nice entry point for DG character and his first contact with Unnatural. It would be nice to have more these little adventures for one player, before the starting of an actual game, but after session zero and generating characters (if of course gaming group have time), it could be cool to run a one-shot for each player with different backgrounds. Something little, like one hour max and at the start of session one, they can talk with each other about their experiences.
The second DG thing that happened lately was a gift from one of my players. He gives me a playmat for our real-time Delta Green Games.


This is, of course, one-time gift (or if they get enough orders?), but if You want some good quality military/cosplay/reconstructing group stuff - definitely check theirs web site out!

One nasty little one-shot!

As I decide to create one blog post every week this year, I'm fulfilling my duty. For the last week or so I delve in Peters Rawlik's book. Starting with Reanimator, then I move to Weird Company and then to Reanimatrix. Chapter 2 of this book is not just interesting reading, but it is a one-shot for one player just ready to be played. If someone wants to run a little game with The King In Yellow, just read it and You are ready to go! It also will be easy to adapt it to Delta Green.

Reanimators

Thanks to my Friend, I've got a chance to read the first three books from Peter Rawlik. For now, I just ended the first one and it is a very entertaining book. I hope the second and the third will be just as the first one. And maybe it will give me some ideas for gaming? Maybe a player organization or a new nemesis for players? Don't know yet. For now, I will listen to Graham Plowman's music during reading. Good times... I mean terrible! Terrible!
