When is Easter Cthulhu?
When is Easter 2013? Glad you asked. This big religious celebration happens on Easter Sunday and Easter Sunday is March 31st this year. What is Easter? That’s a different question entirely.

Modiphius takes the Kickstarter gamble for Achtung! Cthulhu
There’s no doubt that Modiphius was making an impact with Achtung! Cthulhu. The blend of World War II and the Cthulhu mythos was so horrible that it was right. The multi-system approach was modern and widened the appeal of the game. Geek Native intervied Chris Birch in July 2012 and dug a little deeper into […]
