New ambitious hobby project: the Mythos Wars!


This blog will in the foreseeable future offer insights in my hobby project for the coming two years: the Mythos Wars. This project will straddle the tabletop wargaming and RPG hobby and will combine elements thereof. I aim at linking tabletop and RPG games, though not necessarily in chronological order.

From "The Cthulhu Wars", Osprey Publishing

I plan to hit the historical period from the Interbellum (about 1927 and onwards) up until the Modern period. Rulesets might include Spectre Operations, Achtung Cthulhu, The Chicago Way and Call of Cthulhu RPG.

So expect lots of scenario ideas, miniature pics and game reports in the coming time.

You notice there is no deadline in sight whatsoever :)
