Happy 30th Birthday Cthulhu
July 11, 2011 by dracs
2011 marks the 30th anniversary of the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game! Ah happy years.
You remember that time when you were attacked by monsters and went insane? Or that time when you were drawn into an ancient ritual performed by cultists and went insane? Happy happy days.
To celebrate this truly momentous occasion Chaosium are offering a one time collector's edition printing of the current edition of the rules (6th edition).
Feast your eyes on 320 pages worth of insanity, catalysmic events and monstrous and alien elder gods all bound up in a rather nice red leather cover.
Cthulhu is sure to be pleased by this offering, but you better hurry if you want to snag yourself a copy as this edition will not be reprinted.
snap! I am out of money !
Happy eons to the masters of terror!!
You know, incidentally, I was born that very same year that this game was unleashed onto the world… 1981.
I am still insane today. Ah, nostalgia !

Happy Birthday Cthulhu! Shame it doesn’t come with the cuddly toy so you can hold it to your bosom as you rock back and forth, dribbling and blathering incoherently. They’ve missed a trick there 🙂
I’m ashamed to say I only played this a few times in my Roleplaying days…we came across a zombie that almost killed us and went insane soon after…happy days 🙂
Toy Vault offers a range of cute Cthulhu & co.-plushies. Though they may only add to the insanity…
What if the plot of My Fair Lady was transposed in Arkham ? I bet no one wondered about that…
Repeat after me, Eliza…
The brain, insane, strains plainly with the pain…
No ? No one ? Oh dear…

It reminds me of the comic I read long ago called Cthulhu and Hello Kitty. It was classic 🙂
