Pulp Cthulhu is aimed at gamers who want a heavy dose of Mythos horror alongside pulpy two-fisted action and adventure. Plus the new book includes modifications to latest CofC system including character generation, new sanity rules, the inclusion of psychic powers and weird science, and a whole lot more to “pulpify” Mythos adventures in the 1930s. Doc Savage or The Shadow versus the Great Old Ones anyone?
My best guess is Pulp Cthulhu won’t be a stand alone product in it’s own right but will require a copy of the Keeper’s rulebook. I have no confirmation but that would seem about right seeing it was a stretch goal for those who backed the Call of Cthulhu 7th edition Kickstarter on a level where they received the physical core book.
The PDF of Pulp Cthulhu has been released to backers which means we should see it available digitally very shortly. I’ll guess a physical edition of the book should be arriving in stores sometime this summer right around convention season. Obviously, we’ll keep you informed of new developments as they become available.
