Don't worry it looks like most of the players are new, we can all learn together :)

Welcome, Barty! I've validated you, so now you can post on the game boards. You'd be welcome to join my games, and I'm more than happy to take on new players, though they use 6th editon rather than 7th. All of my games are well underway and only one is currently active. That one is The Shadow Over Dunwich, the third adventure in my Doctor Who/Call of Cthulhu campaign, which is a UNIT adventure set in 1985 Dunwich, England. No knowledge of the first two adventures is needed to play, but you can read them in the Hall of Fame if you like. You don't even need to do any catching up if you join, as I can introduce a new UNIT character at this point. No knowledge of Doctor Who is required, and there's a thread detailing everything you need to know about UNIT. If you don't mind doing back reading, there are a couple of abandoned characters, and you could take over one. We're approaching the endgame, which will hopefully be completed within a few months. After that, I plan to start the fourth adventure, a Cthulhu Invictus scenario set in the late Roman Republic that I call The Brotherhood of Death. However, I doubt that will start until next year.

I also run Zombie Apocalypse, a modern near-future non-Mythos game, though with a similar mythology. However, only one of the players has posted since mid-August. There was also Space Oddity, based on Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes and set in 1969 Philadelphia, but that has been dead for several months, as all of the players have disappeared.

Thanks for the offer,but as a new player,I think one game is enough to try to cope with
I am mostly interested in classic era Cthulhu and just possibly gaslight............I must also say I have a liking for Zombies,but possibly more as a tabletop game or boardgame rather than roleplaying
I hope to attend Conception in January so I hope to meet several people from this group and maybe sample some new games
thanks again and regards
Barry

You're welcome, and enjoy the game you've joined. The first game in my campaign was Classic Era, but it is long finished. I do have a Gaslight scenario planned for it, but it will be years before I get to it.
