October is by far the best month of the year, not only for the prevelance of pumpkins but also for the gentle underlying feeling of ‘I want to be scared this month’. Of course, at Pelgrane Towers, every month feels like this when dealing with the Mythos but for those outside, we have lined up some tasty, terrifying treats for you. First up is the monthly round-up of all things Pelgrane from Simon Rogers. Then we have an extract from Adrian Bott’s RPG Miscellany on how to make the most of your in-game failures. A guide through the narrative construction process of DramaSystem by Robin D Laws. A short Trail of Cthulhu demo game from Steve Dempsey, perfect for introducing players to GUMSHOE. Check out the new playtesting opportunities for October. 8 new desktop wallpapers and a Design Your Own Apocalypse Competition with fantastic prizes.
