Burrowing through some boxes of my old gaming stuff, I found these 1980s Call of Cthulhu adventures that I apparently took out of issues of Different Worlds magazine.

I may try running them, though maybe not with CoC. I'm thinking possibly The Cthulhu Hack or Trail of Cthulhu.

Campaign done! Carl survived. I don't know if I'll use this character again, but I like him. I'd also like to meet my friends' characters some day again. Waking up at 5 am to play has been brutal, but I am glad to do this with this group.

It'll be at least a few weeks before we start the next campaign. It sounds interesting - Keeper will be doing all of our characters with limited backstory freedom for us. The campaign may have us relearning who we are...

I read that "Full Fathom Five" was a really good Call of Cthulhu Module. I need a one-shot, so I said sure. Bought and read it.

...and outside of flavor I'm ... highly underwhelmed?

The killing problem with this module is that it is a hard core railroad. There is nothing the players can really do to influence the outcome in most scenes. There is no way to avoid the ending, and the only thing that changes is what flavor text the players get when the thing happens.

The players really read like passengers here; the author claims to be mimicking the helpless feeling of slasher movies, which cool... but not really.

So I've promised my players something nautical, and now I have to figure out how to run this module in a way that doesn't make me cringe.
