Transmitted by Dustin Wright of the Leng Embassy, CO.

This R'lyeh report contains some crunchy Chaosium info. For more Chaosium news check out our website at http://www.chaosium.com

Chaosium.com Sale

The big news this month: We're having a sale to bridge the gap between us and the release of Terrors from Beyond. Check out our catalog at:

http://catalog.chaosium.com/ Revenue from the sale will help us to keep several books rolling along through the production process and may even send a new book to the printer. This is as close as we can get to our own government bail-out while stimulating our economy. :)

Tentacles Approaches

Charlie is leaving for Tentacles in seven days. The Tentacles crew has an RSS feed, live journal, twitter, and a web cam lined up. So even those of us who can't be there in person can still participate vicariously! (http://www.chaosium.com/article.php?story_id=382)

Terrors Beyond is at the printer. Still. You can read about that in my Blog: http://www.chaosium.com/index.php?section_id=41.

Shelter Us

A new free Call of Cthulhu adventure has been posted to our site. This one was written for us a couple of years back for a secret project which never came to fruition. We're happy to finally be able to share it with everyone. http://catalog.chaosium.com/fdm_file_detail.php?file_id=198

Two Chaosium.com Contests

We're holding two Adventure contests this summer. Our Annual Halloween Adventure Contest is starting a little earlier this year. With any luck we can have the resulting monograph available well in time for your Halloween gaming. Deadline for entries is August 1st 2009. Our second BRP Adventure Contest has a July 1st 2009 deadline. For more details about both contests visit us at chaosium.com.


Chaosium Gazette

We have a one-page newsletter available for your propaganda needs. Print a handful and take them to your local gaming convention if you can. Be sure to bring one to your next game session as well. Thank you in advance for sacrificing some print toner for the cause!

Upcoming Summer Conventions

We're planning to attend several conventions this summer: Tentacles (Germany) and KublaCon (CA) in late May; Origins (OH) in June; Gen Con (IN) in August. We'll likely have exhibitor booths at each, but that will largely depend upon cash flow later in the year. If we've been publishing books, we'll likely have booths!

Want More?

You can find more Chaosium information, propaganda, and ramblings on our website, via our catalog newsletter, and Dustin's Blog.

As always, thank you for your continued support!
