Call of Cthulhu – Terror Over Tokyo 3: That Which Survives

I ran a Call of Cthulhu Game at the Appalachian State University Game Club Game Fest and LAN party on October 9, 2016. “Terror Over Tokyo 3: That Which Survives” took place during the Doolittle Raid on Tokyo in April 1942. The B-25 Bomber that is part of the raid crashes in China and the crew has to deal with whatever is harassing a small Chinese village. My players were Alex, Mike, Jonathan, Collin, Ashton, and Alex.

Call of Cthulhu – Terror Over Tokyo: The Obake Shima Incident

I ran a Call of Cthulhu Game at NerdCon 2015 at Appalachian State University. “Terror Over Tokyo: The Obake Shima Incident” took place during the Doolittle Raid on Tokyo in April 1942. The B-25 Bomber that is part of the raid must make hard choices when one of the fuel tanks is punctured. My players were Teri, Toli, Carl, Walker, and Devin.

Call of Cthulhu – Leaflet Mission II

It was around 18:00 hours on Sunday, February 25, 1945, when the crew of the Big Money, a Boeing B-17 bomber with the 492nd Bomb Group, 406th Bomb Squadron Night Leaflet Squadron of the 8th Army Air Force, entered the mess hall at Cheddington Airfield in Buckinghamshire, England. It was unusual, to say the least, as the crew usually met with the crew of their sister ship, the Pretty Lady, in the Mail Briefing Room for pre-flight pre-briefings.

On March 29, 2014, at CaesarCon 2014, I ran the original Call of Cthulhu Scenario “Leaflet Mission II” to learn the fate of the sister ship to the Pretty Lady, the B-17 Bomber in Leaflet Mission. My players were with Scott, Adam, Terina, Natalie, Stephen, Chris, D.J., Lilly, Matt, and Josh. We had a full crew of 10 players for the 10 positions on the bomber.
