Chaosium brings games, designers, and its Cult of Chaos to UK Games Expo

Posted by Michael O'Brien on 18th May 2017

For the second year, Chaosium offers UK Games Expo attendees a Cthulhu workshop, games, and a glimpse at Glorantha. Plus the latest releases at the Chaosium Booth, including Pulp Cthulhu, Doors to Darkness, and H.P. Lovecraft's The Call of Cthulhu for Beginning Readers.

Friday 12.00pm (SEM2957) in Piazza 1

Chaosium's Rick Meints and Michael O'Brien reveal secrets about the forthcoming return of RuneQuest, the epic tabletop roleplaying game set in Greg Stafford's world of Glorantha.

Saturday 1.00pm (SEM3009) in PIazza 1

Chaosium’s Call of Cthulhu RPG Line Editor, Mike Mason (Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition, Dark Heresy 1st Edition) leads a workshop on constructing terrifying horror adventures. Mike will be joined by Lynne Hardy (Achtung! Cthulhu, Cogs, Cakes & Swordsticks) to run an informal session about designing and writing horror scenarios, as well as answering questions on writing for the gaming industry in general.

Cult of Chaos

Members of Chaosium’s volunteer game masters' programme, the Cult of Chaos, are running a variety of Call of Cthulhu and HeroQuest Glorantha games throughout the convention. More than a dozen of these games will be Call of Cthulhu. Although no spaces remain for "Force of Will", Sunday morning’s exclusive and unpublished scenario run by Mike Mason, attendees can check for available spaces to pre-book a spot.

To find out more about the mythic worlds Chaosium has to offer, drop by Stand C5 (NEC Hall 1) at National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham 2-4 June.
