Well, no bunyips in my entry unfortunately. But I'm having fun nonetheless. Just trying to tease out my lord's domain now.

Hi folks,

I was recently inspired to try and do a Gothic Earth campaign, but set in the early 20th century (about 1910-1920, in Portugal). I haven't fleshed much out yet except for the scenery and initial historic event.

But I'd need a rules update as I wouldn't like to do it in 2nd Ed nor 3E.
So... I read in this thread that the rules for GEE would be available through 2012 for playtest and I thought that might be useful.

Where can I find those rules? All I found so far, and read, is the primer.

Thanks.

There's the primer, and also the class info, horror and madness rules released here:

That's all there is for now. Full rules won't be out until the netbook release scheduled for October. But it is definitely 3e based.

May have to stick with one entry for now. Can't find anyone else who jumps out at me... at least not yet.

Yeah, I'm a bit behind on the updates, sorry. Will announce the winners of CYOD month shortly, and I believe the final product is well underway....

I believe so, but if we decide we need more, we'll post here about it. So keep watching this thread.

Yes, we have Rucht working hard to finish this for Halloween. Expect a lot of new material!

We'll need feedback and testers!

After! ;) I meant Rucht will want feedback, so the more testers, the better!
