@@SSkorkowsky Too bad. I started some time in February this year and there are maybe 6 sessions left or so. Awesome campaign. If you ever plan to run it, I highly recommend the "Masks of Nyarlathotep Keeper's Support Group" on Facebook. Great resource and many helpful folks around. Maybe you want to join just for curiosity and get hunger for more?
We want to see the review - an epic. 20 hours Review😊 If you‘ re looking for players: I‘ m ready to be a part of the gang. Oh, GM, my GM. Big fan of your channel.
I bought the campaign and the Gamer Prop Set from the HPHLS, but I only started being a keeper this year, so I will plan some more smaller scenarios and campaigns first. I would really really love to see a review with tips for keepers from you at some point for this campaign, although I certainly see why it would take up a lot of your time. Still, I won't stop wishing for it :)
Very cool. I, too, especially like the British inverted Ankh. If the ring is too large, I'd advise getting some Ring Snuggies. I found them at Walmart, myself, for about $3 for a set of six. They fit under the bottom of the ring and hold it in place. I got mine for my Green Lantern ring set (you inspired me to buy it with your Hellraiser cube video btw). They actually work very well.
Thanks. I'd been too cautious when ordering it that it's be too small and now it's way too big. I'll snag a Ring Snuggie and add a little Mythos Bling to my attire.
Looks interesting, though I'm not sure I can muster up the effort to run this campaign again as it took me well over a year to complete first time around!
You're going to give it to Jack for review videos? How do you do that? I thought they were historical movies. How can you give something to Jack when he's in the 1920's and you're in the 2010's? Do you have a time machine Seth?
If there was only 1920's Jack, that'd be a problem. But there's also Fantasy Jack, Modern Jack, Space Jack, Paranoia Clone Jack, and Cyberpunk Jack. He is all times simultaneously.
Ah Inspector Barrington.... Very cool props. Watching you open this box up brought back a lot of memories. Masks was very epic. Interesting storyline(s.) Are you planning on running/playing or is it more for collector purposes?
I'm planning on running it (at least that's what I keep telling myself). However I'm wrestling whether I want to do Mask, Orient Express, or Two Headed Serpent once our current CoC campaign is done.
Our GM has Orient Express in the wings ready to go. He is taking a break and the group is doing old school fantasy and some sci fi for a change of scenery. I was involved in Masks for about 2 years playing roughly 2 times per month. It had been going for a year prior to my joining. It was nice playing in it as I would like to run it for my other group some day. Good luck and thanks for posting this video.
Props are great. To bad there is so few (or expensive) of them. Making most of them myself, but it is very time cunsuming and some times you just dont have the time to do it before a game night. Anyone have any tips on were to find props to buy and/or print? Like documents and the like.
Some of the older adventures have free props online (The Auction, Edge of Darkness, The Haunting, etc.) Yog-Sothoth.com is always a good place to check. There's also the HP Lovecraft Historical Society. They have some free printable props here: www.hplhs.org/resources.php And pay-for props here: store.hplhs.org/collections/games-props Also the old Geedunk Props here: cthulhureborn.wordpress.com/uncollected/geedunk-prop-mirror/ Hope that helps.
Well you did not turn invisible so the ring is not evil. Unlike those dam Chinese puzzle boxes! If you don't quit playing with them your gonna call Pinhead. Adam
hey Seth. Gave Pulp Cthulhu a chance with my group, who were rather timid about a Call of Cthulhu game, and chose the two headed serpent because of your review. We just started the Congo chapter and they're loving it so far. Im still kind of a rookie GM, but i was wondering if the Masks of Nyarlathotep would be a good pulp campaign to start after they finish with the Two Headed Serpent? From what ive read it is a rather punishing campaign, how well do you think a group of pulp characters could handle it? I want to be honest to the story but at the same time i dont want to scare my group away from Cthulhu games in the future. Would you have any recommendations for a pulp campaign if you think it may be a bit too much for them?
I still haven't run Masks, so I don't know. Normally I just string a lot of separate adventures into a campaign instead of running the giant ones. Two- Headed Serpent was a rare exception to that.
