Call of Cthulhu – Night Witches: The Sosnovka Raid

On Dec. 5, 1942, a section of three light bombers from the Soviet 588th Night Bomber Regiment, a regiment consisting solely of women, are sent to bomb a supply depot in the German-held Russian town of Sosnovka. The six women in three planes head out, but will not be the same afterwards.

On Feb. 27, 2016, I ran a Call of Cthulhu Game at the Appalachian State University Game Club Game Fest and LAN Party. “Night Witches: The Sosnovka Raid” tells of the daring female soldiers of the 588th Night Bomber Regiment who go to bomb a tiny village on their nightly runs and find something else there as well. My players were Katelyn, Mike, Quinten, Connor, Alex, and Ashton.
