Chaosium Digest Volume 38, Number 3 Date: Monday, November 17, 2003 Number: 2 of 2 Getting Started The Laboratory The laboratory is of the standard variety you find in a learned school of education: scientific journals line the walls, posters, periodic tables, and such tacked up, Bunsen burners, test tubes, bottles and flasks of chemicals. There is no crime scene to investigate, however the characters may wish to look at the meteorite, the soot/dust, and Bennings' notes. The meteorite The rock is fist-sized, and black in colour. Nothing much can be said about it, other than it is hollow inside and you can jab a finger inside and wigg...

Chaosium Digest Volume 38, Number 2 Date: Monday, November 17, 2003 Number: 1 of 2 Contents: * It's Plantlife Jim, but not as we know it (CTHULHU) By: Mervyn Boyd (jack@ktana.freeserve.co.uk) Editor's Note: I apologize for the dearth of issues recently.

Anyone can submit material for the Chaosium Di...

Chaosium Digest Volume 38, Number 01 Date: Saturday, August 30, 2003 Number: 2 of 2 The Treasure Hunt (part 2) Going To Kansas Kansas State lies directly north of Oklahoma. The drive out is largely uneventful, the characters perhaps only stopping to fill up with petrol and wipe dead bugs from the windshield in Garden City or Scott City, before turning eastwards to Healy - where they can stop to stock up on supplies and arrange those last minute things. Pinnacle Rock lies roughly 25 km north of Healy and it'll take a Landrover to get there. The dusty rocky terrain is deeply rutted. It's bouncy as hell. Hope the shocks hold up. A DRIVE rol...
