RuneQuest and Making Horror

Chaosium Inc is showing off at UK Games Expo a particular game that is making a big come back this year.

RuneQuest.



RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha will be out later in 2017, but Chaosium Inc will be making review copies of the Quickstart rules available at UKGE, and so that is definitely something we will be checking out.

I have to admit I have never played RuneQuest, and but its importance as the British answer to DnD, and also as the basis for the system used for the Call of Cthulhu rpg can not be overlooked. It will be very interesting how this new edition has been designed for the tastes of the modern gamer.

Now given we are going on the press day on the Friday, we will be missing out on the chance to go to the Chaosium talk on designing horror stories for your games. Mike Mason and Lynn Hardy will be leading this discussion, as well as talking about the gaming industry in general.
