Sorry, I've not been around for a few days (work and a bit of travel). These sound really good Linden, I prefer the ETs as the badguys behind the Toxic Mother (which I think is a great Darkling to use and fits with everyone's thoughts). Agreed, I only suggested the organised crime angle as certain ...

So all in all, thanks for making mention of the show Linden - been the best 2-3 hours late at night I've spent for months :D You're welcome mate, as I mentioned a friend put me on to them - I'm just spreading the word. Will probably listen to them all again at some point in the not too distant futu...

I'm thinking the ETS are the tentacular ones. As an alternative to being created by dumping, the Toxic Mother is the product of an alien terraforming experiment gone wrong. Various extra-terrestrial compounds introduced into the area haven't created a suitable environment for the aliens to live and/...

I found them quite addictive as well. Good for long car journeys.

Who knows, maybe they'll do a Red Hook prequel after The Shadow Over Innsmouth?

Or have I been sucked in by the "radio play" style and Mystery Machine, Red Hook Stories et al, don't actually exist except in the story world? :oops: I tended to skip past them thinking they were advertising, but I believe they're actually part of the story. There is a development in one...

A friend put me on to this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p06spb8w/episodes/downloads Two modernised adaptations of HP Lovecraft tales presented as the work of a two-person internet radio station/podcast specialising in the weird and occult. It's professionally made and performed with proper acto...

Hi all here are my suggestions, feel free to modify and muck about with as you please: Any interest in creating a Dark Conspiracy scenario as a hive-mind? I was thinking that as a group we could break things down into the intial overarching aspects - • Location - Where is the scenario set Area of pa...

I'm not particularly familiar with actors at the best of times and definitely not up to scratch when it comes to Kennedy so I don't think I've recognised him in any other roles (doesn't mean I haven't seen any movie he's been in, just that I don't remember most of the actors I see!) He's best known...

But yes, seeing the bus stop yokel get his comeuppance made me smirk so I have no judgement on anyone who might have laughed. It's the way he marches straight up to him then "blam!" No messing. Plus Kennedy being best known over here for genial comedy roles gives the scene extra "pun...

Sounds like they've got a real mess to sort out, but are determined to do the right thing. Wish them all the best.

I took "The Borderlands" to refer to not a physical border but the place where the natural met the supernatural, a place where the old world (with its old gods) met the new (Christian) world, so yes, like you say, the border between reality and... some other reality? Yes that must be it. ...

As a minor point of information, I've just found out that one movie mentioned here that I wanted to watch The Borderlands (I believe Linden mentioned it?) I really liked it (and as a general rule I'm also not keen on found footage films ). I'd watch it again definitely, and would look out for the o...

I don't really like Facebook groups, for much the same reasons as already mentioned, so am only member of a few. Even then the frequent posting by some members of idiotic and desperately unfunny memes is a particular bugbear of mine. Twitter I don't have anything to do with. Don't find it remotely u...

I'm quite happy this forum has been around for so long, there's been a lot of other gaming related sites that have died but this one has weathered the years. I appreciate that people lose interest or move on to other pastimes and so on but I find too many of today's replacement for forums are not r...

There's been shortages in the shops here of rice, flour, beans of all sorts, pasta, bottled water (because apparently the herd believed the water would be cut off or something?), toilet paper, hand sanitizer and facial tissues. We had the panic buying at the start of the crisis. It seems to have fi...
