Call of Cthulhu
The Proposition - (4-6 Cornered Souls):
[top]
Slot 1: Wednesday 7pm - 11pm
Slot 6: Friday 2pm - 6pm
Sometimes you don’t have a choice. Sometimes you just have to do what you have to do: it’s not about who’s right, it’s not about what’s right, it’s just about what you have to do. Salvaging some sense of order for your life is all you can think about right now. Those you love are counting on you. This may be the strangest bunch of people you’ve ever got together with, but you’re all in this together, and that makes you powerful allies. You may not have a choice in what you are about to do, but you will be one of the few that determines how it all ends.
1880 Cthulhu scenario, 4 - 6 Investigators required: pre-gen characters supplied.
(All levels of Cthulhu experience welcome, including none!)
Please Note that this game is for Mature minded gamers

One of Us - Circus of Freaks (4-6
Freaks):
[top]
Slot 3: Thursday 2pm - 6pm
Born in to a world that you can never truly be a part of, you have come to accept the term they give you: ‘freak’. Not just accept it, but take a perverse pride in it. You and your fellow freaks travel the country, making a living from the curiosity and fear of the norms. The world of the Circus is all you know and all you want: anyone you call ‘friend’ is here, here you can find security, understanding and even love. But now this is all under threat. The recent hideous murder and mutilation of a normal has brought the Circus under suspicion. The normals are investigating, and can only believe the murderer is one of you. This could be the end of the Circus: you will not let that happen…
1930 Cthulhu scenario, 4-6 Investigators required: characters supplied.
(Any level of Cthulhu experience welcome.)
Please Note that we ran this adventure at Conception 2008
and is for Mature minded gamers

The Heroic Sacrifice Of Anatol von Liebenhaft
(4-6 Cast & Crew):
[top]
Slot 2: Thursday 9am - 1pm
A film crew has been recruited to work on dance scenes starring the rising dance star, Claudia Engel, for the new film, ‘Anatol’, about a nobleman of the eighteenth century who foiled an attempt by one of his friends to raise the devil. The setting for the dance scenes is the grand ceremonial hall of Burg Löwin. Burg Löwin has been rebuilt many times over the centuries. Most of the present building dates from the sixteenth century, when the area was beginning to recover from the horrors of the Thirty Years War, but there were some additions in the eighteenth century. There is historical evidence that a pagan temple occupied the site in Roman times. The titular owners are the Grafs von Kesselbord, though aristocratic titles mean very little in Germany today and the estate has belonged to the German nation for some decades. The most famous of the Grafs von Kesselbord were the fourteenth Graf Wilhelm, who had a reputation for devil-worship and disappeared in mysterious circumstances in 1783, and Friedrich, the nineteenth Graf, who held the title during the rise to power of the Nazis, and met a sticky end at the Night of the Long Knives in 1934. Let the dance begin.
1930 Cthulhu scenario, 4-6 Investigators required: characters supplied.

The Last Hurrah (6 Spirited
Volunteers):
[top]
Slot 2: Thursday 9am - 1pm
Slot 9: Saturday 2pm - 6pm
Late September 1941, Walmington-on-sea, England. The LDV (or Home Guard as it is now known) are Britain's first line of defence against the dastardly nazi hordes.
The stalwart men of the local platoon, ably led by Captain Mainwaring, have been vigilantly watching the skies and coast for signs of Jerry activity, and their watchfulness has paid off.
Strange lights in the sky and reports of furtive activities in the fields surrounding the town can mean only one thing. It's time for the crack fighting force that is the Walmington-on-sea home guard to bring the fight to the Hun and knock him for six before his devious plans can come to fruition.
The Last Hurrah is a WWII Cthulhu scenario for 6 players. Pre
generated characters supplied.
Please Note that we ran this adventure at Conception 2008

Slot 5 & 6: Friday 9am - 6pm (Double Slot)
Slot 8 & 9: Saturday 9am - 6pm (Double Slot)
Working for the Special Operations Executive, you are resisting the hellish Nazi menace using any means necessary. Those you work with, those you trust, all know that the ultimate price is worth paying if it stems the rising Nazi tide engulfing Europe. You will use whatever you have to, whoever you have to, go to any lengths: this is a war you simply can not afford to lose. Nothing is off limits, including the supernatural. You are developing a weapon that will devastate the Nazi horde. There is little time to ponder the deeper moral issues of the ultimate cost in using it.
1941 Cthulhu scenario, 4 - 6 Investigators required: pre-gen characters supplied.
(All levels of Cthulhu experience welcome, including none!)

The Sudan, January 1885. General Gordon is dead, the Mahdi stands triumphant. As Khartoum burns behind you, you and your companions flee into the night, having miraculously escaped the sack of the city. The perils of the siege have given way to the dangers of the desert. You must somehow reach the long-promised relief expedition - but between you and safety lie a hundred miles of danger. And there are worse things than dervishes dwelling in the depths of the desert ...
A 1885 Cthulhu scenario for 6 Investigators: Pre Gens supplied.

Pirate you are called and Pirate you are proud to be. A life of freedom aboard the Dolphin, under the command of Calico Jack Rackham, this is the life you have chosen and the life you cherish. Recent exploits have left you well stocked with treasure: a bright few months lay ahead. Captain Calico Jack reveals he has a treasure map that could be the pay day to end all pay days - a treasure gathered by your Pirate rival Captain Howell Davis: his loss, your gain. Presented with a haul this easy to steal, it would be churlish to refuse.

Die
Siedler Von Catan (Settlers of Catan), the classic board game from Kosmos.
Expand your colony to conquer the island of Catan, through the building of
settlements, roads, and villages by harvesting commodities from the land
around you. Trade sheep, lumber, bricks and grain for a settlement, bricks
and wood for a road, or try to complete other combinations for more
advanced buildings, services and special cards. Trade with other players,
or at local seaports to get resources you might lack. The first player to
achieve 10 points from a combination of roads, settlements, and special
cards wins. English rules available. German game of the year 1995.
As
a daring adventurer descend in the darkest corners of the world armed with
mighty weapons and powerful abilities, you venture into the dungeon
confronting deadly and terrifying monsters, including Skeletons, Hell
Hounds, Giants, Demons, and Dragons. Escape deadly traps, discover lost
treasures, and ultimately, confront and defeat the evil masters that dwell
in the hidden places.
Take to the skies as one of the legendary knights of the air. Fly your fragile biplane over the trenches of the Western Front, engage the enemy in a test of nerve and skill and, for the fortunate few, celebrate victory.
